Diplomjodler,

You need a place for the help when you drive through the rubble after the apocalypse.

Diplomjodler,

It’s cat farts all the way down.

Diplomjodler,

Most people can’t do that and generative AI, no matter how limited is still better than the average shlub.

Diplomjodler,

In a few years AI will be good enough that someone can make this on their PC at home.

Secret service agents moments after the 1981 assassination attempt of Ronald Reagan. (lemmy.world)

Excerpt: On this day in 1981, President Ronald Reagan was shot in the chest at the side entrance of the Washington Hilton on Connecticut Avenue by John Hinckley Jr. Reagan was walking to his limousine after a speech to AFL-CIO leaders when Hinckley, 25, who was standing among a group of reporters, fired six shots, hitting Reagan...

Diplomjodler,

And no Dubya. I think in a long term view, Dubya was far more destructive than Trump has been so far. That of course could change if he gets reelected.

Diplomjodler, (edited )

Without Dubya, we wouldn’t have Trump, Putin and possibly Xi. After Clinton the US had a very high prestige in the world and even their antagonists were more likely than not to try and not piss them off too much. After the Iraq invasion the US lost all claim to being not just another imperialistic power and this definitely emboldened the others. Any idea that rules and international law mattered went out of the window. Add to that the normalization of torture, unrestricted mass surveillance and open disregard for democracy and we have a lot of the ingredients for the mess we’re in right now. And let’s not forget the 2008 financial meltdown which contributed to the feeling of disenfranchisement that drives a lot of the present day political divisions. So in my view Dubya really fucked shit up and we’re all still paying the price.

Diplomjodler,

But he made Trump possible. See my other comment in this thread.

Diplomjodler,

If you have the coin, you’ll pretty much get infinite money. With that you can buy and sleep treatment you need. Also, not having to work means you can sleep whenever you want.

Diplomjodler,

I have done that many times. But not recently because it’s been years since I last read a paper magazine.

Diplomjodler,

I think the physicists have been having doubts about slow stuff recently too.

Diplomjodler,

So what’s your view on MOND?

Diplomjodler,

I could hang that up in my office but all the people there already know I’m like that.

Diplomjodler,

Phantastic! Can we have ads in the task bar next?

Diplomjodler,

You can be direct and call out bullshit without swearing and name calling. While the content of this sounds reasonable, the tone definitely isn’t. If someone talked to me like that I’d tell them to fuck right off.

Diplomjodler,

I’m glad I don’t live in your immediate vicinity.

Diplomjodler,

Not just toddlers. All children under ten are invisible!

Diplomjodler,

If all knowledge is empirical, you have your solution already. Just make an experiment. Use a heuristic to estimate an amount, test it and adjust as you go.

Diplomjodler,

Private companies are efficient at making oligarchs richer and everybody else poorer.

Diplomjodler,

It’s not enough to not understand economics, you also need to lack empathy and self-reflection.

Diplomjodler,

Where can one buy these? Asking for a friend.

But e-scooter companies don’t pay as many bribes and don’t have as many lobbyists.
