Becoming incoherent because of a illness, that doesn’t hospitalize you, isn’t a great trait for a president.

We lost to Trump in 2016 because we ignored how relentlessly unpopular Hilary Clinton was, Republicans spent decades smearing her every chance they got.

Biden just proved their claims about his mental fitness, if we ignore that by calling it optics, we’ll lose.

Hinge was okay 2.5 years ago when I met my gf on it. It’s since been purchased by match.com and is likely ruined now.

I’m concerned too much more salt may lead to salting of land, but I may be worried over nothing.

I also don’t fully trust our ability to predict negative outcomes if it’s profitable to ignore them.

It’s all good. I can see that point, but it’s unfortunately a bandaid (semi-short term cooling strategy) on a sucking wound (too much CO2 in the atmosphere), and if I trusted the world powers to continue solving the issue (Atmospheric Carbon Capture) before sepsis set (salting the earth from aeroslizing sea water) in, I’d be less opposed.

I never said burn more oil?

Also I’m not a huge fan of the idea of seeding the atmosphere with salt water, that salt has to come down eventually.

It is the Sulfer thing. Sulfer Dioxide was shading the planet and making clouds more reflective, cooling the earth and we’re fairly uncertain by how much.

Even though the article doesn’t say it outright, the obvious conclusion is that we should have stopped using fossil fuels decades ago. And even if stop now we don’t know how much more warming we’d do without the sulfer dioxide. Which shouldn’t be added to the atmosphere because it would kill an outrageous amount of people.

Sure, but zero costs changed for me, insurance premium was the same, taxes were the same, interest rate was the same (fixed interest loan). And yet somehow they low balled it and now it’s my job to fix it.

I’ve got Knob and Tube wiring in part of my home, so only the state of Ohio is willing to insure me, and my insurance premiums stayed the same. So at least I have that going for me. My bank still raised my mortgage by 20% because apparently they can’t set up an escrow properly and apparently that’s my problem now.

It seems to me, the reason this was found for the first time, is because this was the first time someone bothered to look.

Democrats: “You’re being poisoned and we need to clean it up”

Republicans: “the poisoning will continue until you give the poisoners immunity”

I recently moved to Linux because windows did the first time setup pop up on me when I needed to use my 5 year old desktop in a time crunch before I was late.

When I got back, somehow despite me telling windows no to resetting my default browser to edge, my default browser was edge and windows had updated to windows 11.

Is it possible I misread the dialog because I was in a rush. Sure. It is. But also fuck microsoft.

Oh no, a convicted pedophile and Russian propagandist lost their US passport.

Anyway

I see where you’re at, but everything I mentioned is in the first paragraph of the article. It’s not like it’s buried.

There’s far more nuance than the headline suggests. He said he’d stop commencement specifically if the cops came to arrest people. He also asked no one shout down the president.

He did not request zero protest.

Employee owned business generally don’t let themselves be sold for parts.

They should oust Mike Johnson, and make Hakeem Jefferies the Speaker and change the rules so it requires a majority of democrats to oust him.

It seems pretty bad all around. Even the privileged are looking at over a third of their jobs vanishing due to automation.

If we’re going to force people to work to live, maybe removing jobs due to automation isn’t the best thing for society.

If you read the whole article it also explains that it’s European version of the same product doesn’t contain added sugar.

The auto summary missed some key points in the article.

Article about DuckAssist. It is powered by an OpenAI product. It doesn’t do enough to bother me, and I can easily ignore it.

Why on earth would running a service that actually costs money be a good idea for company so deep in a hole on a webservice that’s comparatively free to run.
