I like to joke that the world actually did end in 2012 and now we’re in a weird purgatory type thing.

I’ve definitely dreamed or seated on project ideas off and on for years. I also like to think about pared down versions that might serve as a proof of concept that would be easier to execute. Sometimes I actually even build a thing.

It’s marginally better if you say you’re a child. Cancer-lite if you will.

You really should report this kind of thing. Don’t call the cops, they don’t even kind of care.

I’m dumb as hell but was curious what it said. I asked ChatGPT, so feel free to correct:

—

The abbreviation “A·I·TR” on the Roman auxiliary cavalry standard can be interpreted as follows:

1. A: Likely stands for Ala, which refers to a Roman auxiliary cavalry unit.
2. I: Stands for Prima (first), indicating the unit’s numerical designation as the First Ala.
3. TR: Likely stands for Thracia (Thracian), indicating the origin of the unit or its cultural composition.

Thus, “A·I·TR” likely translates to “Ala Prima Thracum,” meaning “First Thracian Cavalry Unit.” This would have been a Roman auxiliary cavalry regiment recruited primarily from Thracians, a group known for their equestrian skills.

I’m really sick of how pervasive it is everywhere now. You can’t sell a product or provide a service nowadays without advertising some AI aspect. I wish that would go away.

I actually pay for a chatGPT premium account because personally I find a lot of value in it. I use it to help with writing, picture analyzing (what species of … is this), and a lot more. I just wish I could decide when I want AI involved and when I don’t.

He got gregnant and the rest is history.

I don’t know how it works under the hood, but from a user perspective it behaves like it’s in BFU. Biometrics disabled, phone code required.

Long press of power and volume up for a few seconds puts you into BFU.

I use the Orion browser with uBlock Origin installed and get 0 ads on YouTube.

This is the right answer. It’s worth noting I traveled domestically and internationally quite a bit lately and I carry prescribed and controlled meds loose in a container. I carry maybe 6 pills total and no one has ever cared or asked about them.

Well his own speech is absolutely free. I’m pretty sure that’s what he meant.

This recent video by Business Insider talks about it and shows how it’s mined. It comes down to the shape.

Like I get it, it’s scary and I don’t want them to have my data, but my picture is being taken ALL the time basically everywhere I go. Is putting my foot down for this specific type really making a difference?

I’m gonna fall through the ceiling :(

Even beyond renting, installing a wifi camera is SO much cheaper than running Ethernet all over your house. And if you need it run through an external wall? Even more money.

Call it what you want, but this requirement prevents me from buying their products too. I use no Meta services. Don’t wanna start.

I’m doing my part too!

When an attack happens at night, you need to decide:

• Are you going to the shelter to get a sleepless night somewhere in a basement or in the subway?
• Or are you going to stay in bed as long as possible to get some sleep, because you need to go to work tomorrow?

It’s a really bad solution honestly. Benzo withdrawal can kill you and it’s extremely habit forming. Especially if you’re using it to treat insomnia, finding a way to stop taking it is gonna be tough.

No solution provided, just giving some caution and saying that using Xanax to sleep is roughly equivalent to getting drunk to sleep. Both affect your GABA receptors and both are habit forming and dangerous to withdrawal from.
