Ha, called it.

Calling it now:

Since there’s not enough time left for him to recover from this brutal ego bruise, I predict he’ll only do rallies from now on, or appearances on far-right media, because he’ll retreat to his snowglobe for reassurance for a while. He’ll avoid addressing Kamala directly, but he’ll ramp up his own network and rile up his mob. His team will struggle to rein him in, and some appearances might be cancelled.

Ooooh. Welcome blast from the past. That sound…

Say what you will, this is an efficient and elegant way to store your adapters. I’m envious.

Money hoarders. They need a coordinated intervention.

45 minutes at 350F seems like it will burn these tiny filets to a crisp, but I’ll try. I do love a mayo and garlic sauce.

I’m pretty vocally atheist, but I watch debunking content, and part of that is anti-Flerf and anti-fascist stuff, so maybe the algorithm picked up on that.

It’s so fracking adorable, I could eat it up. Any recipes?

Wait – is this how we prevent our socks committing suicide in the dryer?

Alex Jones screeching

This is abuse, full stop. If a child (16 is a child) marries an adult, even if the age gap is only a few years, that means a child is expected to have sex with an adult who should know better. That child cannot understand what they’re getting into.

I’m saying this from experience. I was married at 16 to a 22 year old. I thought I knew what I was doing, but I did not. I was intelligent – precociously so – and from a middle class family. It should not have been allowed, and it fucked up my life in ways I could not possibly have predicted.

There’s no such thing as a benign child marriage.

Quiverfull movement.

Because women and children are just props – objects you borrow, like a carpet steamer. I just need it for a day, I’ll give it right back.

The country with the highest per capita consumption of vinegar in 2018 was the Netherlands, with 3,108 liters per 1,000 people

This checks out. As we all know, the Dutch only inflict depression, they’re never depressed themselves.

I do, too, and alongside that are articles about how new discoveries in cosmology are upending all of science, and alongside those, thinly veiled creationist articles about how that means science has been totally wrong all along, therefore god. The Hubble tension has spawned a lot of these, with at least one article in my feed per day from the Discovery Institute and the like.

e: articles like these:

Were We Made to Make Black Holes? Evolution News is part of the Discovery Institute

The “Hubble Tension” and the Big Bang Evolution News

James Webb Space Telescope Reveals Fast-Growing Galaxies Answers In Genesis, speaks for itself

I’ve been noticing a disturbing trend lately, and I wonder if the way these headlines are written is feeding it: creationist articles have been slipping into my science news feed, usually riffing off whatever bullshit alarmist/exaggerated headlines spread through the popsci realm the day before.

If you don’t know what you’re looking at (and most people don’t), you’ll wind up reading creationist propaganda when you think you’re reading a science article.

The guys at Knowledge Fight have talked about buying it. Your suggestion seems like something they might do.

Have you tried doing this? I have, for *nearly a year, on the more ‘advanced’ pro versions. Yes, it will apologise and try again – and it gets progressively worse over time. There’s been a marked degradation as it progresses, and all the models are worse now at maintaining context and not hallucinating than they were several months ago.

LLMs aren’t the kind of AI that can evaluate themselves and improve like you’re suggesting. Their logic just doesn’t work like that. A true AI will come from an entirely different type of model, not from LLMs.

e: time. Wow, where did this year go?

• Fresh piranha about 2/3 down & under the duvet – an unusual surprise for your partner.
• Piranha in the coffee mug - a classic.
• Replace a coworker’s mouse with a live piranha (timing is important – don’t want the poor thing to suffocate, have a bowl of water handy).

The possibilities are endless.

Piranhas have dozens of uses. Food, bait, aesthetics/decor, pranks, weapons of surprise, scissors, evil lairs…
