The drug might suck. But I think continuing research on non opioid pain killers is probably a good thing.

Honestly, I don’t care. I don’t even look at that stuff, I just type in the bar thing what I want. Mozilla has to fund the project somehow.

Ah, because whoever they kill is definitely an enemy. If they were already infallible why do they need AI?

There was a lot more I missed when I switched, can’t think of anything now. I was going to joke that I miss being 19. But eh, I’m doing better now than I was then.

It’s really annoying actually. Sometimes you’re asking something completely benign, and it’s likes sorry I’m an AI and I can’t do anything.

Example: I asked it what a commonplace book was. Apparently language models don’t have the capacity to help with that!

Sabayon Linux. I’m not sure if it’s still releasing updates, the main website is dead. It was based on Gentoo and later funtoo, but had a package manager of precompiled binaries. You could still use emerge if you wanted to. Definitely a weird and interesting distro

Blend OS is trying to do the declarative nixos thing but with an arch base. That’s pretty cool.

ClearOS was Intel’s attempt at an immutable os. From what I remember it was really fast.

Edit: actually it clear Linux not clearOS. Edit: also clear Linux is stateless. I don’t know, there’s a lot about it I don’t understand

Yeah right now I weigh 170, I’m in pretty good shape (would be in better shape if I didn’t injure my foot and could start running again). But for me 180 is overweight? Even if that’s just fat that means my muscles become less visible. Hell it feels like my thighs are bigger now after getting in shape that when I was 180. And I started to look really skinny when I got down to 165.

I’m sure people would keep calling me skinny at 180. What we need are easier ways to measure body fat percentage. Because it is true that holding onto lots of fat for a long time is what’s bad for you.

The easiest way to check on body fat percentage right now is just to take weekly pictures of yourself in your underwear. You can see the muscle vs fat pretty well.

I’m not sure it’s a safe bet. Only if the tariffs last longer than 4 years. Building new factories takes a couple years, then you need to break even all within 4 years? Just seems risky to me

Are there any ways we can fight this? In my head “guerilla counter psyops” sounds really cool…

But like is the move to ignore? Point out what they’re doing? Verbal judo? Report and move on?

Rural Oregon is very red. There’s a behind the bastards episode on just how many racists there are in Oregon.

I use Plex and jellyfin, honestly, plex only stays around because of plexamp. It’s just too good. I don’t like using streaming apps like Spotify or whatever because they’re not as good

Sounds like a good idea, I don’t see why not. Now if only I had health insurance…

I don’t make a living off of my calligraphy or anything like that. But I think that the value is in me being able to create more unique pieces.

Sure you can make a copy, but it’ll never be the same as having a hand made original. Then Again I’m not very good or successful.

I watched a video a little while ago , I think the only value winamp has is nostalgic and historical. If it was really open source maybe we could get a really good fork and that’s about it, I think. Maybe I’m missing the point, let me know I’m not very smart at this stuff.

So I was teaching some kids snowboarding, one kid started talking to me about musk on the chairlift. He tells me that musk is the greatest engineer to ever live. I say that he’s really more of a business man buying up companies. Kid is not convinced. I tell him that the only engineering that musk may have done was software engineering on PayPal. Kid thinks that’s great support of his claim.

Adults and 11 year olds are pretty much the same, so I would say there’s lots of people that think musk is a super genius. Probably a dwindling amount, but there’s a lot of people on earth.

Now that you mention it, I seem to remember Xenophon stumbling across giant ruins that perplexed him while out on campaign. I think they were Persian? It very much could be drawing on the experiences of people seeing the ruins of fallen empires.

Edit: AI is telling me that Xenophon traveled through the impressive ruins of Assyrian cities, he was fighting the Persians.

I wonder who did this first? Didn’t ultima have a storyline like this, or am I misremembering a game from before I was born

This is why I could never be a cop. Someone skips over a turnstile in front of me, and all I would think is: “not even enough money to buy my next coffee, let alone the donut”

Like why care about public transport? There’s plenty of real crimes to handle in NYC.

You’re probably right, but guns like the ones they used can be obtained legally making them much easier to be obtained illegally. I’m not an expert on gun policy, so I can’t tell you how we should restrict access to guns.
