oakey66,

I remember when the CEO did a ted talk about the pun and everyone was so impressed because he came from apple. It just goes to show how much of tech is made up of sales people and consultants while good talent is truly hard to find.

oakey66,

But they told us not to be concerned.

oakey66,

It’s private insurance for people who are statistically sicker and costlier. So they look for ways to cheat paying for care because it’s really profitable.

oakey66,

Why are people so dumb that they fall for it?

oakey66,

Hopefully it’s the end of Israel as we know it. I doubt that anything different comes from its rubble but I do hope it can.

I find it funny that a couple months ago Schumer was calling on netenyahu to resign and now he’s one of the senators welcoming Bibi to the US. This country is just one big grift and everybody is a mark. I hate it here so much.

He Made a PowerPoint on Mothers Starving in Gaza. Then He Lost His Government Job. (theintercept.com)

Alexander Smith’s PowerPoint presentation doesn’t appear designed to court controversy. The slides, focused on declining maternal health in Gaza, cite public health data from the United Nations and World Health Organization. His employer, the U.S. Agency for International Development, had selected him to share it at the...

I’m still blown away with what SNES was able to accomplish with killer instinct. Based on the games around that time, it shouldn’t have existed.

oakey66,

Nope. This has been the Biden administration from the beginning.

Jeep is launching a $25,000 EV in the US ‘very soon’ to revamp the rugged SUV brand

oakey66,

All of stellantis cars are garbage.

oakey66,

I think these kind of articles allow them to collectively rachet up the misery. This is an incentive. Not a disincentive.

oakey66,

Post partum destroyed my marriage. I wish this was available to my ex wife after our kid was born. We did counseling, tried SSRIs but it never quite helped enough. Hopefully, this will help some women going through this.

Should I permanently leave Israel?

I’m not sure if this is the right community for this question, but it says “no stupid question” so here goes. I’m an Israeli who now lives in the US, but I am considering permanently residing in the US or elsewhere (perhaps somewhere in Europe or Canada) because I’ve become kinda disillusioned with Israel for a variety...

oakey66,

As a Russian Jew who fled the Russia in the 1980s, my family moved for our safety and opportunity. Countries don’t deserve reverence just for being countries. We can be proud of our heritage without having to show allegiance to a nation state. Especially, when it is using our ethnicity/religion to brutally wipe out and massacre a civilian population.

Just do what is best for you and your family.

oakey66,

He ran as a self proclaimed progressive only to land in the Senate and become a ghoulish genocide defender reminiscent of the ADL.

oakey66,

Zeteo and data for progress just recently did polling on this. But you’re right. Corporate media just manufactures consent for the horrors committed by the west.

oakey66,

You know Joe has a point when the only thing he and his administration is able to come up with in response to the allegations is “it’s not genocide”.

According to the United Nations, genocide is an internationally recognized crime that involves an act with the intent to destroy a national, racial, ethnic, or religious group, in whole or in part. These acts include:

  • Killing members of the group
  • Causing serious mental or physical harm to members of the group
  • Deliberately inflicting conditions of life on the group that would cause physical destruction
  • Imposing measures to prevent births within the group
  • Forcibly transferring children of the group to another group

This doesn’t even include the genocidal rhetoric coming from Knesset members.

It’s pretty clear the administration is on its back foot because no one believes Israel or the U.S. Hell, the majority of his base doesn’t agree with him.

This is pretty telling:

House votes to require delivery of bombs to Israel in GOP-led rebuke of Biden policies (apnews.com)

The House delivered a rebuke to President Joe Biden Thursday for pausing a shipment of bombs to Israel, passing legislation that seeks to force the weapons transfer as Republicans worked to highlight Democratic divisions over the Israel-Hamas war....

oakey66,

Looking forward to the pier being used to import settlers and bombs to further decimate Gaza. Because at this point I have no faith in the Biden admini Doing anything right when it comes to this genocide.

oakey66,

Ken Klippenstein just published an article that Biden withholding arms was bullshit just yesterday.

Bidens threat to suspend arms to Israel is a scam

Hello GPT-4o (openai.com)

GPT-4o (“o” for “omni”) is a step towards much more natural human-computer interaction—it accepts as input any combination of text, audio, and image and generates any combination of text, audio, and image outputs. It can respond to audio inputs in as little as 232 milliseconds, with an average of 320 milliseconds,...

oakey66,

Worth listening to a podcast by Ed Zitron who covers this exact same thing.

I work in analytics consulting and aside from some relatively straight forward text classification and parsing there really are so few instances where AI is useful. He actually made the case that AI is useful to people selling AI. But these chatbots are mostly useless bullshit.

Israel “Likely” Used U.S.-Supplied Weapons in Violation of International Law. That’s OK, Though, State Department Says. (theintercept.com)

In a long-awaited report, the State Department lays out numerous suspected international humanitarian violations by Israel in its war on Gaza, yet suggests no changes in policy or consequences....

oakey66,

There has been some reporting that Jeffrey Epstein was a Mossad agent honey trapping politicians in the US. It was reported on RT but I’ve been wondering the same thing.

oakey66,

This should have been the move on day 10 of the invasion. And a white house insisting on peace negotiations and the release of hostages on both sides. He would have instantly been viewed favorably on this issue and likely wouldn’t have tanked his polling.
