This is amazing comedy, if it wasn’t so sad. I almost feel bad for the confidently incorrect infantilized LLM.

So does Meta’s AI.

I also tried Microsoft’s Copilot, and surprisingly it gave me an accurate answer about checkers even after I asked a few different ways:

The all-consuming mission to look at boobies is essentially universal for all pubescent boys from about 12 all the way to the age of majority.

Not true. Some boys also want to look at dicks.

They’re aristocatic.

Assuming a person eats ~1.8kg of food per day, that would be ~72 grams. Basing that math off of a number I had heard previously stating that adults eat anywhere from 3-5lbs of food daily.

Tim Apple donated to the guy who wants to make DEI illegal though, so if Apple does stay the course, I just hope it ends up being under someone else’s leadership.

Despite the easy-to-recognize positivity in this image, I can’t help but see the Frenzied Flame from Elden Ring.

Not to mention both stories being explicitly rooted in Polynesia means they’re working from a shared common mythos. Maui is a real-world mythological figure who wields a hook, Moana didn’t just make that up. Turtles are also culturally significant, as are boats/seafaring journeys, tattoos, ancestral spirits represented as animals, and so on.

I hate to defend a corporation as evil as Disney but the most they’re guilty of in this circumstance is making a non-Eurocentric movie for a change.

Meanwhile the state will do nothing to help any of the displaced, letting them sit in camps and temporary shelters until the shelters close due to lack of funding/public interest and the camps get broken up by police. Then they just go from being “displaced” to “homeless” and it becomes their fault this happened. On the bright side, after they are arrested for being homeless, they can be enslaved as firefighters for the next wildfire to come.

I could, it’s not that difficult to imagine. Lots of companies have mandated their own account systems for console games, too.

Star Trek: The Next Generation season 5 episode 18 “Cause and Effect”

Chance he runs for vice president and wins, with the presidential candidate promising to resign promptly, and is betrayed: 10%

For this one, it also depends on how the Supreme Court rules on the 12th amendment. That amendment states that anyone who is unqualified to be president is likewise unqualified to be vice president, but there is some uncertainty as to whether or not it only applies to people unqualified to be president or if it includes people unqualified to run as president.

I’d say 90% chance the conservative-stacked Supreme Court side with Trump because the conservative justices are originalists and the 12th’s interaction with the 22nd was not intended when the 12th was written, but 10% chance they decide he’s unqualified to be Vice President so as to keep the door closed for Dems who might try the same thing.

And this is just some of the sexual stuff, I didn’t even bother looking through all of the explicit violence:

Genesis 19:33

And they made their father drink wine that night: and the firstborn went in, and lay with her father; and he perceived not when she lay down, nor when she arose. And it came to pass on the morrow, that the firstborn said unto the younger, Behold, I lay yesternight with my father: let us make him drink wine this night also; and go thou in, and lie with him, that we may preserve seed of our father. And they made their father drink wine that night also: and the younger arose, and lay with him; and he perceived not when she lay down, nor when she arose. Thus were both the daughters of Lot with child by their father.

Genesis 38:8

And Judah said unto Onan, Go in unto thy brother’s wife, and marry her, and raise up seed to thy brother. And Onan knew that the seed should not be his; and it came to pass, when he went in unto his brother’s wife, that he spilled it on the ground, lest that he should give seed to his brother.

2 Samuel 16:22

So they spread Absalom a tent upon the top of the house; and Absalom went in unto his father’s concubines in the sight of all Israel.

Ezekiel 23:18

So she discovered her whoredoms, and discovered her nakedness: then my mind was alienated from her, like as my mind was alienated from her sister. Yet she multiplied her whoredoms, in calling to remembrance the days of her youth, wherein she had played the harlot in the land of Egypt. For she doted upon their paramours, whose flesh is as the flesh of asses, and whose issue is like the issue of horses. Thus thou calledst to remembrance the lewdness of thy youth, in bruising thy teats by the Egyptians for the paps of thy youth.

Deuteronomy 21:18

If someone has a stubborn and rebellious son who does not obey his father and mother and will not listen to them when they discipline him, his father and mother shall take hold of him and bring him to the elders at the gate of his town. They shall say to the elders, “This son of ours is stubborn and rebellious. He will not obey us. He is a glutton and a drunkard.” Then all the men of his town are to stone him to death. You must purge the evil from among you. All Israel will hear of it and be afraid.

Deuteronomy 22:28

If a man happens to meet a virgin who is not pledged to be married and rapes her and they are discovered, he shall pay her father fifty shekels of silver. He must marry the young woman, for he has violated her. He can never divorce her as long as he lives.

Judges 19:22

While they were enjoying themselves, some of the wicked men of the city surrounded the house. Pounding on the door, they shouted to the old man who owned the house, “Bring out the man who came to your house so we can have sex with him.”

Wow, 2 whole million? That’ll teach them.

Yes, the info was released only recently:

What ways have you used to bypass YouTube’s echo chamber format?

Easy, I barely use YouTube at all anymore.

When I do use it, it’s for specific videos. I never use it for content discovery.

Even if it was, presidents are now immune from criminal charges, and he is set to begin his next term in just a couple weeks, so not likely that anything could stop him from continuing to do this without sweeping reform of the office of president.

The FBI, apparently.

Bollards that can raise/lower aren’t that expensive and they don’t need to be mechanized. Back at my university, they’d raise them when they’d close off driveable areas for events and there’s just a hook to lift them up and secure at a higher height with a lock. They were made of solid metal and concrete so I assume they had some sort of counterweight underneath to help raise them.

According to some of the news I just saw, they said the driver is dead.
