FlexibleToast, to memes in She helps when I cook.

Not to make them feel included, but to kill their curiosity. I always offer a smell of my food to my cat and then take it away. She gets to smell it and realize it’s something she isn’t interested in. I think that’s the reason she doesn’t bother people while they’re eating. She knows she isn’t interested in “people food.”

FlexibleToast, to memes in So that's it, huh? We're some kind of Suicide Squad?

Palpatine coming back wasn’t even an interesting premise though.

These people are rich, but they’re not the wealthy. These are your doctor types, not your billionaires. Doctors are paid well for sure, but they should be paid well.

FlexibleToast, to fuck_cars in Yes... pirated cars will definitely fix the problem

These are things that need a subscription, though… These are remote features that require internet connectivity and application serving. Things that don’t just come with a one-time fee. These are actual services being provided by Kia or Hyundai. This isn’t the same as putting a hardware feature of your car behind an arbitrary pay wall.

FlexibleToast, to memes in "OpenAI Staff Threaten to Quit Unless Board Resigns"

From my understanding, Sam Altman is the one pursuing profits, and the non-profit board is the one that was overseeing it being done “safely.” If this is the case, it is the non-profit board that should be rallied for.

That hope died 9/11/2001.

There are a bunch of these around. In my old city we had two nearby. One was nice kind of like this, one was just a grass field out by cornfields.

Because this is a small general aviation field. This is for doctors flying their Cirrus SR22 in and out of. You might be surprised how many airfields are probably around you and how many of those are just a strip of grass with some hangers off to the side.

FlexibleToast, to star_wars in Just saw this picture with "good Disney Star Wars", do you agree?

None of it is good except for parts of season 1 of The Mandalorian.

You meant to say, Andor. Andor is easily the standout in that crowd.

But that’s what this is. OpenAI is both for-profit and non-profit. It has a profit arm that made the huge deal with Microsoft and ensures research continues, but there is the non-profit board that oversees them to make sure it’s done “safely.” If when the non-profit board makes a correction it gets immediately dismantled, then it was all for show and really the profit side is actually unchecked.

You can get a Cessna 172 or even some nice Mooneys for around $50k. Unlike cars, even really old ones are kept in good running order because parts time out and have to be regularly maintained. Even if you want to buy a newer plane, a lot of people in GA use fractional ownership. That $200k newish Cirrus SR22 is fairly likely owned by 4 people splitting the bill. GA isn’t cheap by any measure, but it also isn’t exclusively for the wealthy. Upper middle class can get into it without too much issue. The people we should be raising everyone to, not tearing down.

This is the same crap Boomers said about Millenials.

FlexibleToast, to memes in Go watch Invasion if you don't believe me

Severance and Silo you mean. Foundation has been partly great and partly terrible. Any plotline with Brother Day has been fantastic. The others have been weak or, in the case of Salvor, terrible. Overall, the foundation is worth a watch, but it is not phenomenal, in my opinion. Not like the other shows.

FlexibleToast, to asklemmy in What is your unpopular flim opinion

And the new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle movie. The sad fact is that these are the exceptions that prove the rule.

FlexibleToast, to memes in Happy Kwanzaa

My company gives the entire Dec 24 - Jan 1st off. It’s like a free week of vacation, and it’s awesome.
