  • Here’s a photo of what’s left in the fridge. Order my groceries online for the week and email the proposed recipes.

    I need to get a present for X, please order it.

    I think part of the problem, is those offering AI currently, have an ulterior motive. For instance, personal assistants like Google. They made it worse as there was less chances to advertise. Alexa can buy stuff, but only on Amazon. I want an assistant that is loyal to me, not to the company providing it. If I order groceries, I want it to check pricing and buy the best value with most convenient drop off. It’s getting infuriating that you have to go through 20 steps for many services before you find out the final price and timing.














  • If a recession has to happen, it’s good that it’s hard to tell. For the average person, .1% up or .1% down is effectively the same. This is still a soft landing from huge inflation numbers and covid wreaking havoc.

    I’m not optimistic but I do hope whatever reshuffle is happening in the world economy is making it more efficient and resilient. I don’t see the same disaster that others do. Apart from climate, the biggest challenge seems political rather than economic at the moment. Fascism and extremism are on the rise. History tells us more conflict is coming.




  • Yes and it specified hospitals as not being a target.

    My point is that there are shades of grey in terms of what is considered political.

    There is no evidence this far that anyone involved in healthcare was aware there were weapons, even if there were rumours.these we’re not military depots. So let’s not stretch the yruth. This was hiding things in secret locations. Certainly, they should not be there, but that doesn’t make the hospital political. It makes whoever chose the location callous with other people’s lives.

    This was at one hospital. Currently, only a third of hospitals remain operational.

    The Geneva convention also required to minimise civilian casualties. That is not happening.

    I don’t think you will find anyone saying ammunitions should be allowed in hospitals. It’s clearly wrong. However, the deaths of the civilians seeking medical treatment is also wrong and objectively more so.


  • Misusing a hospital is a goalpost shift. Politics is in every aspect of life. If there is a poster in the hospital calling for socialism in a socialist country like Cuba, should they not operate there? What about a workplace safety sign mandated by government which might include information about how to contact their union?

    There is no clear line of where politics ends.

    You’re obviously purposely misinterpreting. There were weapons found there but its main purpose was a hospital and it’s still very unclear as to how much the hospital was used. We call the term a human shield as we as a species are meant to be above killing the innocent to get to the bad. I think it’s objectively worse to kill innocent people in a hospital including babies than it is to store weapons illigitimately at a hospital.

    There is no right here. Only shades of evil. Hamas wish to carry out genocide. That’s horrible. Israel are carrying our genocide. That’s worse.
