I should probably pre-apologize for that joke. I don’t play a lot of fantasy games and I don’t really know what gets summoned. I promise, though, I’m a big enough nerd for Lemmy. I have 3 telescopes and probably every Raspberry Pi model if we look through the drawers in my soldering desk.
I should probably pre-apologize for this joke too.
But what if they summon 2 healing elves and a mighty centaur back? What are you gonna do then, Elon?
Why? Was he a completely unqualified rapist who looks like some weird mix of Beavis and Butthead?
I know she’s a terrible person, as is Kristi Noem, but I do instinctively feel a little bad for them that they might have to be the eye candy in the known sex criminal cabinet meetings.
Linda McMahon? Not so much. She’s been in the squared circle. If she didn’t learn how to give a good People’s Elbow or Stone Cold Stunner, that’s her problem.
Who gives a fuck if you have a mandate if you won a trifecta? In 2 years, maybe some working class voters will realize they were sold magic beans and put a check on their power but mandates are a bullshit concept. Exercise power when you have it.
In the case of Texas, malicious compliance would just be “directly” quoting Jesus. Make a few 7th graders write essays on the Sermon on the Mount and the Texas board will be racing to replace Bible studies with some “free enterprise” course about the magic of capitalism.
Edit: I added quotes around “directly” because obviously, Jesus didn’t write the New Testament so the quotes aren’t direct.
I just read that one of the Democrats said none of that is true and there was no deal. So, I guess we’ll have to wait for more reporting.
In fairness, that movie is about a sex worker with a heart of gold. There’s worse examples for teen prostitutes than Julia Roberts’ character.
He also wrote a check with a memo that said “tuition reimbursement.” Just pisspoor criminality. Even high school weed dealers know not to leave a paper trail and use cash. (Or maybe whatever anonymous cryptocurrency the dark web uses nowadays. I haven’t talked to a high school weed dealer since I was in high school many moons ago. You could tell me kids buy weed with Roblox Buxx and I’d believe you.)
Dude, you were the coach at Auburn. No one is scared of your threats.
I know regions of India and China would be considered “developing” by any standard but as a country, if you’re doing fucking moon missions on homegrown rockets, you don’t need foreign aid.
There’s not that many bots yet and people are big into blocking (and you can subscribe to block lists so it’s automatic). I’m sure as it grows, bot traffic will too — it’s seemingly inevitable — but 20 million users isn’t really that much compared to legacy platforms. I think is mostly news because lots of people are fleeing X due to the election.
If you think “being in charge” and “urging” are incompatible, I would encourage you to talk to someone with young kids who think chicken nuggets and Frozen are the only acceptable dinner/movie options.
Knowing a human made it is the point. To be crude, if a sex doll is your girlfriend, you’re single.
I’m the Poet Laureate of the Darvaza Gas Crater, that’s who I am to decide it.
I don’t give a fuck if it surpasses human poetry to a focus group or if poetry is popular enough for you to care. I’m making a larger point that it’s a misuse of technology. Some things are pointless without a human personally taking time to craft it. We have loads of inefficiently produced things that exist because they’re “handmade” or came from the heart.
It’s like when Google screwed up during the Olympics with that commercial where Gemini made a little girl’s fan letter for an athlete. The whole point of a fan letter from a little girl is that it’s personal and took time. It’s not supposed to be perfect and efficiently produced. It could be 80% misspelled and written in crayon and be more meaningful than anything a machine produces.
Who the fuck wants poetry written by a machine? The whole point of poetry is that it’s an original expression of another human. It’s not a non-fiction book or decorative art. It doesn’t exist because we think it’s perfect. It exists because it’s a connection to another person.
Like, who gives a shit if a machine can churn out something like Langston Hughes “The Negro Speaks of Rivers.” . His life is what gives the poem its meaning.
I’m all for LLMs writing stuff but when people say it can create certain types of art, I want to use one to make a dismissive_wank.png image.
History is gonna binge watch it later.
If you killed my family and destroyed my town to take out Hamas, the first thing I’d do is start Hamas 2. You can’t indiscriminately bomb your way out of terrorism.
The only possible outcome I can imagine where these atrocities make Israelis and Palestinians safer is if the UN Security Council enforces the 1967 borders and the ICC tries the senior leadership of Hamas and Israel for crimes against humanity. The world has to say “Never Again” to these atrocities.
You can all downvote me for making a joke about the WWE Attitude Era. I didn’t come here for internet points. I came here to layeth the smacketh down, jabronis.
