There's just something there ... www.youtube.com/watch?v=yWNb... - je ne sais quoi, which I think may translate to 'I don't say what now?' #singit #queensland

Is this about swallowing or not swallowing?

Science opens you up in all the right ways. It's absolutely central to the scientific mind to be ready to challenge assumptions and accept a new reality in the light of evidence. It's why we want to go out there - to uncover new evidence and increase our understanding of reality.

Building rapport before asking you for money, crypto, or information that gives them leverage to get money, crypto, or to get you to do something you wouldn't otherwise.

De winst op korte termijn is sowieso voor Melis - deze zaak zal voor Broersens naar alle waarschijnlijkheid voor het soort aandacht (of erger) zorgen waar niemand op zit te wachten en een vrouw in de politiek links van het midden al helemaal niet.

Vance should have a chat with the Pope and get some perspective on his buddies. But of course the Pope would rather stay the Hell away from Satan's bootlicker.

Jij denkt dat de situatie er beter van wordt voor de betrokkene als ze nog vaker ongevraagd in beeld worden gebracht? Ze kunnen de online versie van het programma aanpassen zodat de fout er niet meer in zit. En #2 - sure, dat is waar, maar is het realistisch in 2026?

The fact that Anthropic is open about this doesn't make Anthropic the problem - it may in fact well mean that Anthropic is the only company that's not a serious part of the problem. www.theatlantic.com/technology/2...

No open source, no public API, no access to the web interface without a Facebook account. I suppose I'll never find out how wonderful Muse Spark is and I look forward to hearing about Mark's next little project.

I'd very much like to know what part of this is AI, and whether that's really the main positive component compensating for many negative ones - that's the main thing about this otherwise staggeringly tone deaf and ill-timed post.

The entire world is living in denial. "Surely, no nation would elect someone that dangerously stupid, let alone the powerful United States of America - there *has* to be an angle!"

It's actually genius from a Trumpian mindset. By surrounding yourself with yes-men you have something on, you are assured of their loyalty. The knowledge that your boss can have you deported on a moment's notice is a strong motivator.

I find on a daily basis that people struggle with the number of words we currently have already. The problem does not appear to be the willingness to come up with a word but rather the ability to engage with nuanced meaning, sadly.

If I can change one thing about the history of Star Trek, it's more Tasha Yar.

"onrust rond Iran"? Is dat hoe we het noemen als Israel en de Verenigde Staten van Amerika een regime proberen te onthoofden, daar een potje van maken ondanks verpletterende schade en zich daarmee in een illegale oorlog storten? "onrust rond Iran"?

TUFLOW 2026.0.0 Release Highlights YouTube video by TUFLOW

Very excited to see the first official Linux version of TUFLOW Classic/HPC available to the general public. It's been a long time coming, but it's here to stay and I can't wait to see what people will do with it. youtu.be/kC9LQFlKZRM?...

According to @midjourney.bsky.social, the streets of Brisbane are filled with young women and old bums, or professional photographers are pervs only interested in them as subjects. (not cherry-picked, just the first three results) #aibias

In 1996 that would have been a bit dated already. You'd find barrel-shaped rechargeable batteries soldered to motherboards on old AT boards, but the button cell or coin cell came to replace it pretty early on and those are still with us today. But your right, there *is* typically a battery there.

Who are you to call this tart 'fresh'?! And what's up with language like 'tart' anyway?!

Tearing down the rest of the White House to replace it with the Golden Temple of Trump.

Pretty good diagram, though I'd label the "battery" a "capacitor", which you're more likely to find there and would look somewhat like that.

The whole Iran situation makes me wonder again: is it mostly Trump lying and being unpredictable, or is Trump mostly confused and unable to tell who around him is lying, but also too proud to admit he's not in control anymore?

The US can sustain wars with weak public enthusiasm because the costs are distributed, the decisions are centralized, and the politics reward appearing strong more than being strategically coherent. What is the goal of this war, Trump?

It's a fine opportunity to shove your kid off the skywalk and claim it was a tragic accident. Of course you have to commit to shoving all the kids off at once, or those bastards will rat on you.

Pointing out that Trump told a lie is like a kid calling out red cars from the back seat. Cute at first, but at some point we can all agree there's a lot of red cars on the road as a matter of course and everyone wants the kid to stfu and move on to something worthwhile.
