Seeing this… this is what really old people must feel like when they begin any kind of serious cognitive decline. The world starts looking strange, familiar but somehow wrong, and everyone just acts like this is normal. Things used to make sense, but now everything seems stupid and devoid of meaning and context.
It’s not about accepting phsycal labor as life’s purpose, although I can easily imagine some profit-driven CEO twisting the philosophy into something soul-crushing.
We wait for employees to quit, get injured, or transfer to a another location so we don’t have to fire them and look like a business trying to downsize. We just fail to hire replacements and offload the work to the poor suckers who are stuck by circumstances. 🤡
It ain’t AI, that’s just an accelerant. Conservatives have been hammering away at education for decades. The devaluation of expertise and intelligence as a primary goal goes back decades.
Trump is the guy who says out loud, finally, what we’ve known all along. They love the uneducated. They didn’t have to ban the books, in the end. They just had to tell us they were worthless and that our opinions were equally as valid.
I have had exactly that. Today is a do-nothing day. Nap, watching videos, playing games, painting nails… nothing substantive whatsoever.
I feel like just being in the same room with him would cause me to projectile vomit
I mean it’s not like my parents were gonna teach me anything useful either, so why not
The abandonment of facts began long before AI.
But it’s certainly exacerbating that problem.
One could potentially interpret that as a tacit admission that he’s done something that could have landed him in jail, on more than one occasion.
Wordle and a number of other similar puzzles around the web.
The parents sued, calling it a “secret gender transition plan” and arguing the school violated their constitutional rights by withholding information about their child’s gender identity. Their petition said the district had “secretly driven a wedge into the parent-child relationship” and unlawfully “usurp[ed] the parent’s role.”
“Siri, how can I make my child resent me forever”
When I rolled my character on that WoW server, I didn’t expect to move so far from home and spend the rest of my life with someone I’d meet online.
Seems to be on Random
There are certainly more, but owing to the fact I have to actively work to evict them, I hesitate to put more thought to it.
I was assisting a customer the other day for about 20 minutes. Elderly woman, her husband in tow. He had advanced Parkinson’s, I learned. She had a very self-depreciating and gentle demeanor. I frequently assist older customers through complex ordering processes and find that my patience goes a long way to alleviate their technology anxieties.
At the end she praised Trump for what I presume she felt was a reasonable, low price or sales tax on her order. She asked me if I was a supporter and I gently told her I thought he was the worst person alive and ought to be in prison. Her counter to this was that he’d opened the Strait. I reminded her that he was the one responsible for its closure in the first place.
She elected to drop the subject.
Today, in light of this, I am reminded of one woman’s utter ignorance and disregard for reality, and wonder if any of this will reach her under the rock she surely lives under. I can only wish her well- Parkinson’s is a cruel disease and watching her husband deteriorate must be truly painful.
Black coffee if its a drip, pour-over, or French press. But for an espresso beverage, I’m going with oat milk. Lactose intolerant, I’ve tried soy and almond milk, don’t care for them. Oat milk, to me, blends with the flavors better and I enjoy it with cereal or by itself.
In the future we will undoubtedly gain much more from a posthumous study of RFK Jr than he ever gleaned from that raccoon and its member.
Many of his supporters have said for a long time that he was sent by God, wonder how many of them were ok with the depiction
Once again Trump pardons someone for a crime he admires. I generally feel as if he does this as a way to pardon himself.
