tory,

My old coworker used to say this all the time back around 2018:

“What’s the difference between AI and machine learning?

Machine learning is done in Python. AI is done in PowerPoint.”

tory,

Never approach a woman under any circumstances lest you run the risk of unintentionally making her fear for her life, gotcha. Just ignore women unless they approach you first. They’re scared of you because you’re a member of the dangerous sex, and that’s just all there is to it.

tory,

Have someone refer to you as a normie and lmk if it feels neutral or derogatory.

tory,

Using the term “normies” paints you as having a superiority complex, which isn’t the best look.

tory,

I’m 60 hours deep on Palworld less than two weeks in while maintaining a full-time job. I don’t buy games to make statements, I buy them because they’re fun to play. And this particular one really is a ton of fun to play. Yes, they’re clearly ripping off pokémon and breath of the wild and elden ring, and I’m sure a few other games. But it’s a lot of fun nonetheless.

tory,

He’s looking sharp as a tack, alright. Now shut up and color, kids. You’re nowhere near as mentally up to it as these pros.

Okay now, if someone could please help the honorable gentleman from Kentucky with his diaper… thank you!

Marijuana meets criteria for reclassification as lower-risk drug, FDA scientific review finds (www.cnn.com)

Marijuana has a lower potential for abuse than other drugs that are subjected to the same restrictions, with scientific support for its use as a medical treatment, researchers from the US Food and Drug Administration say in documents supporting its reclassification as a Schedule III substance....

tory,

This article seems to imply that stopping heavy marijuana use can lead to withdrawal symptoms.

Yeah, I’m calling bullshit on that.

tory,

USSR style. We can all be our ideal selves. We can finally be writers and artists living in our own large single family homes who teach children on the side, but only when we feel up to it.

And no one has to be the guy who works on the sewers or anything unpleasant like that. Plus, maybe someone wants to do that work, idk. And if not, uh… robots can do it. Who builds, programs, hauls around, and uses the robots whose sole job is to unclog sewers? Uh, nerds, I guess. Or… other robots, maybe, idk.

There will be no need for forced labor at all under this new system.

tory,

Never was a fan of blaming the entire dumpster fire on the leader of the executive branch any more than I believe we should blame that leader for things like gas prices.

What exactly do we expect the leader of the executive branch to do when the leadership of the judicial branch invalidates a law written by the legislative branch many years ago when it was able to agree on such things.

How much power are we willing to cede to a single person (the president) as a result of our legislative branch being completely unable to function? The legislative branch creates laws, the judicial branch rules on if those laws are constitutional and the executive has a veto and controls the armed forces and foreign policy (among honestly, maybe too many other things). I feel like rewatching schoolhouse rock might be fun. Let’s do that, huh?

Here’s a direct excerpt from the article OP linked:

Shortly after the exchange during the show, “The Joe Rogan Experience” producer Jamie Vernon cut in to correct Rogan. Vernon played a clip that Rogan had cited, which was in fact a video of Biden mocking “stable genius” Trump for the comments about airports in the Revolutionary War. Then Vernon ran a video clip of Trump’s “Salute to America” remarks from July 4, 2019, in which the former president praised Americans’ military efforts in the war against Great Britain.

In the speech, Trump said in part, “Our army manned the air, it rammed the ramparts, it took over the airports, it did everything it had to do, and at Fort McHenry, under the rockets’ red glare, it had nothing but victory.” (Meanwhile, Fort McHenry was the site of a key American victory over the British navy in the War of 1812, not the Revolutionary War.)

To that, Rogan responded, “Oh, so [Trump] fucked up.” Nickal commented, “That’s the thing about media these days. You gotta look into it.”

I dont watch the podcast, but please: let’s exhibit some media literacy while we criticize others for their supposed lack of media literacy.

tory,

Archimedes once said something like: “Give me a big enough lever and a place to stand, and I shall move the Earth.”

The “place to stand” part is just as critical as the lever part. You gotta have something to push off of in order to move other things. This is a closed system that pushes and pulls only against itself.

tory,

I just straight up tell everyone I have no leadership aspirations. I write that shit on my yearly reviews.

tory,

One wonders how we have a functioning dispatch system. Folks have the most stressful phone conversations you could imagine nonstop for their entire workday. Mistakes are documented publically and may quite literally cost lives. It is extremely likely that you will develop trauma, so much so that counseling is free and integrated into the job. The rules are rigid, and you are subject to initial and ongoing randomized drug tests.

Total compensation: ~ 23$/hr

tory,

I saw this elsewhere, but the term rizz does imply the existence of other words to shorten all the typical rpg attributes.

Unsure what they would all be, but I’m thinking these other four seem pretty easy to agree upon:

Toosh = constitution

Tren = strength

Teri = dexterity

Telli = intelligence

tory,

The implication made was that these were children being arrested for hate speech. I clarified that they’re adult children at the very least. You seethed.

tory,

All of the suspects were apparently over 18.

tory, (edited )

You: vote republican or you support genocide.

Me: you’re seriously pretending Republicans don’t also support this shit? You’re a clown.

You: :clown: honk honk

And since we’re editing links in retroactively, fuck it:

Trump says he stands with Netanyahu after a barrage of GOP criticism for saying he ‘let us down’

Man you really edited the fuck out of that comment over time. But sure lets respond to the edit. It’s a two party system, and one of them wants to turn it into a one party system. You’re clearly on board with that plan. I am not.

tory,

Republicans are so fucking pro Israel it’s laughable. What the fuck are you even saying? Have you completely lost the thread of the last twenty years to be coming in here pretending the opposite? I legitimately think you’re a fascist who wants to end democracy and you’re arguing in bad faith.

m.jpost.com/…/netanyahu-meets-with-republicans-af…^ Speaker of the house

Republicans invite Netanyahu to address Congress as part of spurning of Obama^ basically every republican

tory,

‘Were forced to work’

VS

‘Were permitted to work’

I’m not sure what went wrong with your brain to not be able to distinguish between these two. You’re responding to someone who said the first version. You clapped back with serious attitude about the second version.

They’re not the same though.

tory,

Printed on all 6 sides of the box, no less. And they were using super soldiers to lift them… or maybe the boxes were empty. Hard to tell.

Louisiana public school principal apologizes after punishing student for dancing at a party (apnews.com)

The 17-year-old student government president and scholarship candidate was videotaped dancing at an off-campus party following Walker High School’s Sept. 30 Homecoming festivities. A hired DJ took the video and posted it on social media. Three days later, Jason St. Pierre, principal of the public high school near the state...

tory,

We took hostages so now you should negotiate rather than genocide the entire Gaza strip.

Yeah, good luck with that.

All of those are limited resources to which you have no right,” White said.

But then earlier:

The nonprofit says it believes allyship from men is important and noted it cannot ban men from attending due to federal nondiscrimination protections in the US.

So… We’d like to discriminate against men and would conversely see no problem if someone else hosted male only hiring events…?

tory,

Somehow still running for re-election.
