Yes, but corporations pay into the system in other ways. Take for example the time Duke Energy had a big coal ash spill into a river. They took the income resources they had and not only paid a fair fine price, cleaned up the…
Wait. No they didn’t. They passed on all the costs to their customers. Fortunately those customers were able to use the free market and choose another provider…
Wait. No, they can’t. Huh. That IS a freeloader.
The instructions were clear. Take him up, cut the line, come back for a refill.
That explains some dishwashers then.
Free speech stops when it infringes someone else’s rights. That’s why threatening violence isn’t covered. This should be obvious.
I also note that while the tweet was self-deleted, it’s still out there now thanks to this tweet, and this post, and even my reply, much like telling a jury to disregard something that was objected to. They probably knew it too, the old post and delete method of getting people worked up and denying responsibility.
Yet if I was helping my elders over the phone, I’d get all sorts of “What Windows key?”, “I can’t find that Control key”, or “I did that key, the plus key, and then my hand slipped and I minimized everything.”
It’s an older meme, sir, but it checks out.
We lost one early to kidney disease. One week he just started acting off, not eating normal, even found him hiding in places (which is never a good sign). Started losing weight visibly, so we got him in to the vet and the blood work comes back. We took him home for one last night together with the other cats before taking him back to let him go. Still rough to think about. We’ve lost a few others mainly to old age, which is still hard, but to cut a great companion’s life in half out of the blue…
I know it’s not the point, but this gives me anxiety. Not a fan of crowds at all. I would take one look and leave.
Same, except I snatched up both the theater and extended the minute they came out and have watched through them all numerous times. As well as now watched a lot of reaction videos for them, which I guess counts too. It’s fun to reexperience the first time through someone else’s eyes.

Me? I’m a planner. You know? I make plans.
You’ve already made the plan, so what value do you have now?
If, uh, the plan fails… the existing plan… I make a new plan.
So you make plans that fail.
I accept the concept from “The Man from Earth” movie/play as canon. Maybe not in that particular way, but in how it went from a nice philosophy by a guy that mushroomed into something he would not have recognized.
Grass not required - could be just hairball, or recent food, or not fed fast enough, or ran around like a maniac, or just for no reason at all.
There is a LLaVA model, as well as a version fine tuned with LLaMA3, Mistral, or phi3. Go to Ollama.com and search for “llava” under models.
I’m sure many don’t have the hardware to run local, but for most things that will probably work just as well as the full models, plus you can modify them and experiment. Start with Ollama as the base to run them, and see what works best. I tend to primarily use the edited uncensored versions of llama3 like the Neural Daredevil variations.
But just remember at any model’s base, even the biggest and best, they are at the core a predictor. This works great for some uses, not so well for others. Don’t use a screwdriver for a hammer…at least not until they merge them to be able to do both well.
Lol, no, but maybe I was channeling him. Great Youtuber.
