USA announces plan to ban the buds of the cannabis plant

I would pay $10 a month (ongoing, MRR) to be able to fly their home base ship to different asteroids and occasionally have the bugs invade it. I would play the fuck out of that game.

• Take screenshot of screen
• Send screenshot to Claude 3.7 or any other decent chatbot. Even GPT-3 is light years smarter than current Siri, but I don’t know it if can analyze images
• Run Claude’s response through a text-to-Siri-speech layer

There, now Siri can see your screen. Why can’t Apple accomplish this? Why are megacorps so inept?

To kids, death is just a word.

Including the horrible angle of headrests these days. You’re right though: nobody gives a shit about the extra safety features.

Wow you guys even lost the ability to do syntax. I guess it was only a matter of time.

Because Canada tariffs us.

Tariffs are reserved for those who tariff US goods.

It really helps if you pay enough attention to know what’s going on.

The polarity of evil has flipped so far that you can’t escape. Now anything good Musk does becomes bad in your view. Musk switches the polarity of the thing, rather than the other way around.

Musk kisses a puppy, you unfortunately must now hate puppies. Such a strong statement.

I would like to suggest a second comment as well

Maybe it’s time to get better at researching companies before major decisions. Do you have a system in place for doing background research on future large purchases?

That shame is no use unless it helps you update your behavior. Shame about a “one-off” decision in the past will continue to nag you until you figure out how to avoid the same mistake in the future.

So how can you avoid realizing ten years out that some big purchase you made supported someone you disagree with? How can you do it in advance?

Also actual Nazis were worse than the “nazis” everyone’s worried about now.

Not as big a deal as virtue signaling to that particular British scientist, naturally, but it’s quite important to the other ones I’m sure.

It has to be humanoid to live among humans, using human architecture and technology.

Doesn’t mean they didn’t give it a dick though

I most certainly was not.

Retirement and open source contribution sounds like an excellent combination to me. Give the old men something to do, let the projects be worked on by people who can take their time, make the best use of the expertise. All that sounds great.

Because older men tend to be more financially secure and hence have more time for generosity.

“world police” means doing police work at a global level.

Police fundamentally exist so that individuals can outsource their security to the state. Police disincentivize coercion by maintaining the ability to do violence and doing violence on those who use violence. It allows individuals to not have to think about physical in order to move freely.

“world police” means one country’s military defending other countries so that those countries don’t have to maintain a military or handle their own security.

The meaning of the phrase is inherent to the phrase’s word: it just means playing a police role (punishing aggression between third parties to maintain a peaceful atmosphere) for the world (planet Earth).
