    Still not familiar with how it functions but wouldn't it take at least that many words to prompt it to say what seems pretty straight forward to just type yourself?

     

    Not really, also you don't have to follow any sort of grammar rules or spelling when you prompt. You can also use chat to text. Minimal effort. 

     

    Every post I've made in the last year or so has been chat to text into a AI prompt. Soon, I'll have AI answering all my emails, disciplining my kids, and ordering my curb side pick up groceries.

  2. Don't leave fully charged batteries plugged in. Unplug as soon as its full, if at all possible. 

    Same for cell phones, laptops, etc. 

     

     

    Came to bitch: Some asshole at my local muni has a speaker on his cart. Blasts Tejano so loud you can hear it from the tee box to the green. I'm about ready to take a 7 iron to the fucking thing.

    That means the tariffs are responsible for a 3.3% drop.

     

    Who are you, who are so wise in the ways of finance?

    A handful of billionaires flew in this morning to yell at bribe him. He will probably tone shit down tomorrow until he forgets the conversation, eats a hamberder and then doubles down again. This guy is a fucking moron.

    So a robot can do the work of multiple people. I imagine that’s correct. Maybe takes a couple maintenance people to keep it running. Sounds like there are still a whole lot of people out of jobs

     

    Well, before Nutlick et al, we had historically low unemployment and declining birth rates, so that shouldn't have been TOO big a problem.

     

    But hey, lets fire lots and lots of people, work to replace the ones who still have jobs with robots, and vilify childless women. What could go wrong?

    Sigh. I served on student government with this guy, and he was my next door neighbor for a few years. I was too busy drinking Bill Clinton’s liquor to really notice his wackiness, but in hindsight I am not surprised.

    Edit - my opposite side neighbor was David Crowder.

    Like I implied, it was an uneventful trip, probably took several weeks. They would have looked like warmed over shit wearing the clothes on their back. 

     

    Seems like I remember somebody telling me you can't really go more than about 20 miles per day on horseback without killing your horse. (Horse people correct me if I'm wrong). 

    So 850 miles at lets be generous and say 25 miles per day = 34 days of travel. Add in extra days getting over the Cascades, foraging, whatever. 

    25 miles a day,  for 34 days straight, even on horseback for most of it, will ruin a person.

    And crawfish Louisiana does not operate as smoothly as lobster Maine.

    Despite all of my city’s misgivings, this quote from a gentleman living in New Orleans in the 1870s is as accurate an assessment of my opinion and feelings as I could write.

     

     

    New Orleans is a comfortable metropolis which has a certain apathy and stagnation which I find inoffensive.

    Because people don’t want to get picked up four hours before their flight to be taken on a tour of the city picking up strangers on their way to the airport.

     

    many years ago I took a supershuttle from cascade locks oregon to the portland airport. This is a perfect description of that journey. 

    But it was only like 15 dollars for the ride.

    Probably around the same time Surly was stanning for a drunken asshole pitmaster and an anti-tow truck rock thrower.

     

    I don't remember the pitmaster thing. Cliff notes?

    I haven't seen this mentioned yet, granted I skipped the arguing back and forth crap.

    Didn't a requirement go into effect for the 2017 model year and beyond which required backup cameras in all vehicles? Did I miss something on that front after that time? I haven't kept up on that aspect of vehicles since I last purchased one.

     

     

     

    Not sure it was all vehicles. 

    If it applies to the slate, then it will have one. When it says "no screen" they aren't referring to the little camera screen. And it definitively isn't a touch screen, which has got to be the most regarded, unsafe thing you can put in a car.

    The only real threat he seems to hold is to primary you with a lunatic candidate. If you aren't a pol, who cares. 

    Otherwise he just talks stupid shit online and with the occasional unconstitutional EO. 

     

    Other than that whole threatening note taped to your office door with a picture of you walking your dog taken from a drone thing. 

    Or the magats breaking into your house with hammer thing. 

    Or...

    Warfighters. It’s all about the warfighters. Like those who died when the Nazis bombed Pearl Harbor on June 7, 1941.  A date that shall live in esteem.

    Yeah, I always wonder about doing a polar plunge because the water temperature might actually be "better" than the air.  

    Conversely, going into BSP when the air is 105 is maybe more of a shock.  BUT, once you get used to it, swim around and then get out, the 105 feels way way better.  

    Might need to go this weekend.  It was great 2 weeks ago!

     

    Definitely try the polar plunge, at least once. Just have towels and warm clothes ready as soon as you get out. 

    But stay in that "warm" feeling water for any length of time, you quickly realize, yeah, its still pretty fricking cold.

    Yeah, I'm not exactly sure how to interpret exactly what he said.

    He's a middle aged white dude, small-medium business owner, Fort Worth suburb.  Probably Trumpy.

    His comment could be interpreted as I'm one of the orange mongoloid's loyal soldiers fighting it out against Jynna and our other enemies.

    Or, I'm getting fucked in a trade war that we and I didn't want and didn't start.

     

    Probably both. Oh well, leopards gotta eat too.

    RGV mexicans are going down with ship. Loving trump shows they're more white than mexican and that's everything to that group 

     

    Its a song as old as time this country. Outgroups stop being outgroups by becoming "white". Happened to the Irish, then the Italians, now its happening to Hispanics/Mexicans. Unfortunately right now, being "white" means voting R. 

    Not sure what the blacks are going to do.
