I remember damage. And escape. Fan of #crows, #StarTrek and the #Japanese language, among many other things. Currently posting one frog species per day. If I keep this up, I should be done in about 20 years. My toots are searchable.

I was thinking about ChatGPT and how everything it says always sounds like someone who has absorbed a lot of information but doesn't really know what they're talking about.

And then I realized, that's what I myself sound like. And a million other dudes on the internet.

AI is just another male redditor.

Loved your last pod about the ST:TAS episode "The Lorelei Signal." By the way, I would like to propose an alternative title "Planet of the Female Fox New Anchors."

A friend of mine is a dyed-in-the-wool outdoorsman, a skilled hunter who dares to go deep into the forest. Unlike his brother, who was killed and eaten by a wild animal on his first outing. He was more a died-in-the-wolf type.

Another IG recipe: https://www.instagram.com/reel/C7M5SDqRIIh/?igsh=MzJmbnV0eDgwbDl6

Drain, rinse 400g tin chickpeas. Pat dry on kitchen paper. On baking paper on an oven sheet, mix with 1 tbsp olive oil, 1/2 tsp smoked paprika, sea salt. Remove any skins that came off. Bake 35 mins at 190C.

Blend 2 tbsp olive oil, 4 tbsp lemon juice, 2 tbsp tahini, a clove of garlic, 4 tbsp water, 1 tbsp Dijon mustard, and salt & pepper.

Drain pasta and cool. Let chickpeas cool. Mix with 5 cups chopped kale, and dress.

This was a big hit. Taken from nomeatdisco: https://www.instagram.com/reel/C7tzZilqLnA/?igsh=MWwzNGdzMHVrYzJsMA%3D%3D

Drain a block (375g) of firm tofu. Cut in slabs about as thick as a slice of bread. Put on a big, shallow plate. Pour 3 tbsp soy sauce over it. Flip to coat, set aside.

In a bowl, mix 1 cup grated, dessicated coconut with 1/2 cup cornstarch. Spread out on another plate.

Coat tofu thoroughly with the mix. Heat 2 tbsp veg oil in a big skillet. Fry ~4 mins each side until nice and brown. Serve with sriracha.

Experiment: consider a question to which you yourself know the answer, and which requires some amount of explanation. Let's say a question in your professional field of expertise.

Now ask this question in two places: one, on reddit, in an appropriate subreddit; two, on ChatGPT.

I'm curious to see whose responses you prefer.

Dystopian fiction can be divided into two broad categories: libertarian fantasies, in which people are finally able to kill everyone they don't like with impunity (Mad Max, The Walking Dead); and liberal fantasies, in which people finally appreciate the value of art and literature (Station Eleven, Fahrenheit 451, 1984).

#foodtoot I may need help with this: I splurged on some nice ravioli, filled with ricotta and artichoke, at the Italian deli, but I don't know what kind of sauce to make with it. Any suggestions?

@FaithinBones I did consider that, but I'm a bit nervous that it would overpower stuff.

Here's the best way to figure out how much faith investors have in the whole AI thing: which company's shareholders have voted to replace the company's CEO (or its entire C-suite) with an AI?

After all, the CEO makes obscene amounts of money (think of all those bonuses!), while there's compelling evidence to suggest that CEOs don't actually make that much of a difference. If there was ever a job in need of AI replacement, it'd be CEO.

Do you have trouble communication metric sizes with Americans?

If so, I have you covered!

I wrote this simple app where you type in a size (e.g. 1.2 meters) and it will output more useful units, e.g. "It is almost exactly the length of 7 medium-size bananas"

@marquisdegeek I look forward to a similar Fahrenheit to Celsius converter, and vice versa.

I just realized that in the unlikely event that Trump would actually go to jail, there's a nonzero chance that both his fans and his haters would purposely start committing crimes just to have a chance to end up in the jail cell next to him.

Speaking from Tel Aviv, US Senator Lindsey Graham pledges to do everything to sanction the ICC "because we're next."

@ridicol Methinks the Senator doth protest too much... whatever happened to that old Republican adage, "If you're innocent, you have nothing to worry about?"
