So if he is still trippin, you telling me this cat took 120g of acid?

Holy shit, the broken clock and I agree on something for once! Contrails are water vapor and CO2, both of which alter temperature. If she wants to ban them, then by all means.
I am curious how she expects to control for lake and sea evaporation, but I’m interested in hearing her ideas.
Also a millennial here, on the older side of it. Got employed right after the .com crash.
Save, just save. $50 a month of you can. More if possible. Best time to start was 10 years ago. 2nd best time is now.
Don’t let yourself get stuck in the debt trap. There is no need to keep up with the Jones’s. Family and friends are by far so much better for your mental health than stuff.
There is no reason to get your burrito a chauffeur. Take life by the reigns and walk up and get it yourself. Even better, skip the premium and make one.
If you want to go to college, fantastic, do it. There are still plenty of schools without resort style athletics programs that are very affordable if you look. Community college the first two ear of matriculation is also an option. A lot of community colleges are now free.
If you live in the US, this country has perverted our sense of belonging so that the hustlers can squeeze you for every last almighty dollar. Don’t give in. Don’t let them win. Save some money, work on saving yourself.
That said, I do have concerns about what I’m hearing about brain activity and use of AI. I can somewhat relate it to the same idea that back 30 years ago, everyone knew something like ten of their closest friends’ and relatives’ phone numbers. Now I’d be lucky to remember two. Cell phones reduced the need to keep those in my head. Likewise, leaning too heavily on AI is already starting to produce some homogeneity of thought across business, to the expense of creativity. I think there needs to be careful consideration put into what we should all be able to learn and recall without AI, before we turn AI into a crutch.
I don’t trust DOOFUS with the cognition to spell his own name, why the hell would I want to give him power to declare war?
No thank you, I am not privy to a war with Canada nor Denmark.
Pork BBQ and Collards. Finish it down with some Cheerwine.
Left to my own devices, I am a messy person. My wife is very tidy. A clean sanctuary is respite for her.
I don’t know how we ended up staying together after those first few dates, but I do know our twice a month housekeeper is acting as our marriage counselor.
They’ve made their decision, now let’s see them enforce it.
Utilitarian - Row houses and small single family starter homes.
Detached single family housing is suffocating this country and the environment. I’d rather leave the woods to nature and nature walks, not streets and houses.
In addition to that, utopian architecture, like arcologies.
I’m much more a fan of the PBS/NPR underwriting model. Tell me who deliberately funds the show or video.
When the advertisement is so divorced from the show, is not relevant to the conversation or is not relevant to me, then the andvertisers are wasting their money.
If you show me the same ad over and over again, I am actually more likely to NOT buy that branded product or service because I’ve become so annoyed and numb from the ad taking what little time I have on this planet that I will actively boycott it.
However, I do have a nice space mug from PBS, a plot of land on Mars, the moon and Scotland, and a t-shirt for the Truth podcast to prove that I will spend money when the advertising is relevant to the content I’m consuming. So if you want the ad to work, invest your dollars directly into the content and providers I care about.
But for the love of everything, do not think for a moment that your contribution gives you license to control their messaging or content.
It’s as if there should probably be some short, somber, but eloquent poem about this very thing.
Mostly vendors. Often on-prem versions customized for their sensitive work and the versions are 30+ years now.
They very much go by the mantra “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.” If you’re lucky enough to get one of those contracts, you’re on a gravy train, but brace yourself because you can expect to get a lot of complaints about how outdated and crap your system is. That and a whole lot of time dedicated to training and documentation.
You’ll also get the occasional person’s personal monument to themselves. “Joe’s been doing that GIS stuff for 30 years.” Whew those can doozies.
Brooks Brothers riot
I’m gonna need to ask the people tied to the tracks some questions about themselves…
Thinking quickly, Japan constructs a homemade blood from a scientist, a shell and a blood.
Joking aside, I remember articles on artificial blood from 20 years ago, but it always failed in trials. I’m glad to hear things have progressed a good bit.
I wish people would spend 10% of the time that they doomscroll towards activism. 15-30 minutes a day in real life. Join groups that align with your worldviews. Meet face to face, donate, call representatives, volunteer.
If we all did that across the country, our numbers would be so overwhelming that the people pulling this shit would be put back in whatever hole they crawled out of.
But instead, we all sit here, reading this, wringing our hands, doing nothing but worrying, and they pick us off one by one, among the nearly silent tap tap taps of our fingers on our phones.
I am not an AI hater, it helps me automate many of the more mundane tasks of my job or the things I don’t ever have time for.
I also feel that change management is a big factor with any paradigm shifting technology, as is with LLMs. I recall when some people said that both the PC and the internet were going to be just a fad.
Nonetheless, all the reasons you’ve mentioned are the same ones that give me concern about AI.
Turns of lack of oxygen to your brain and violent head trauma is a good way to enforce your conservative views.
