Useful if someone’s getting picked n and needs a retreat.

But I’m by no means an expert at cats. I have however become quite proficient at spot cleaning carpets

Definitely sounds like a territory or resource competition. If it’s one cat marking and other options exhausted there’s kitty Prozac if your vet agrees.

If you don’t mind cutting holes in interior doors and the cats are chipped, there’s smart cat flaps that would allow selected access to spaces

It's so easy to make them mad because their only win condition is trying to prove "my country is better than your country". Which is negated by my concession that the UK is a failing state that got there by overexerting power & influence it didn't have. And also, if that sounds familiar, it should".

Some dude was doing that insufferable American exceptionalism bs because I said the US empire is decaying. He tried to hit me with "I don't see half the world using the British pounds". So I pointed out he's explaining this to me in my country's language. I just know he's absolutely seething.

Harsh truths.

Their four phases seem like a great place to start with critical thinking and social media

If there’s syndicates that buy out lottos under the right conditions, I expect the same is possible for raffles.

Not to mention people seriously supporting whatever the raffle benefits and treating the purchase as a sort of donation.

Who pays the most income tax? | USAFacts In 2023, the top 5% of earners collectively paid $1.27 trillion in income taxes, or about 60% of the national total.

Considering the top 5% of earners pay about 60% of the taxes, unless the top 1% are paying the 40% that comes from the the other 95%, there’s no mathematical way for the top 1% to be paying more than 60% of the total

Sure I know there’s none of that old BASIC code in an LLM, but behavior wise, most of the foundational interactions are virtually the same, merely just feedback loops.

Followed by the eventual knowledge that it was only fooling you into believing it’s actually ‘thinking’.

It’s the same con game.

So true.

Allow me to pose an additional take regarding this view. I think that in some way it’s almost like exposure to the earliest programs of this type has a sort of immunization effect.

Perhaps why I see the soul of ELIZA inside modern LLM’s.. especially repeating back my earlier responses

For fuck's sake, ChatGPT is not a therapist. Not only is your whole chat history subpoenable, but a tool that sounds like a therapist but is actually designed to tell you what you want to hear is very bad for your mental health and possibly the well-being of the people around you.

The arrogance of Vance and the administration. Not, “we couldn’t reach a deal,” but rather “they chose not to accept our terms.” The obvious mindset of the US does what it wants and all other countries, not to mention the Pope, fall into line or face the consequences.

I’ve worked single shifts longer than they negotiated to end a war.

Call your Senators.
The Save Act is an assault on voting rights. Its’ intention is to silence women & minority groups. This does nothing to protect the integrity of voting, but rather to slant the elections to the right.
Keep your voices loud! Do not let them silence you!

In popular culture, the show Mad Men addressed a lot of the gender disparity that existed in the 60’s

Even works for “the party of Lincoln”, especially given their stance on birthright citizenship

All evidence suggests that like any abuser, ICE officers will lie about everything evil that they do and blame the victims for the horror’s they inflict upon the innocent.

“'I’ve never experienced anything like this in my entire life,' the congresswoman said, fighting back tears.

"She described the way people were laying down inside as “like sardines.”

“'It is frightening in there,' she said. 'It is disgusting'..."

Told my wife to have dinner ready at 6 or I'll obliterate her entire civilization. So anyway, she now charges me a fee to use the bathroom that used to be free, and I didn't get any dinner, but I'm pretty sure I won that exchange.

I lol'd at this.😆

I know it’s crazy, but as an alternative, White House staffers could simply choose not to commit any crimes.

Hey let’s remember this: when Trump gives Iran multiple time the cash Obama did, Fox News will do wall to wall coverage of it like they did Obama. Right?

RIGHT?

That’s an abomination.

I've studied so many concentration camps through history that held vulnerable people in just this kind of crowded squalor. You demonize people, you demand more arrests, this is what you get. It already has its own budget and its own momentum, and is on track to go much further, unless we stop it.

If you know… you know.
