I did something similar to what this article describes a bit back. For me it was turning off my phone, the effect was staggering. Anxiety etc dropped immediately.

For me in particular, it was being constantly available to anyone in my life, but also the doom scrolling, and knowing there’s a vast ocean of infinite content at my fingertips. Sure, I could curate my experience, and block people, but overall the phone is still functioning largely the same as it ever does. I can always turn those features back on. By changing how the device works externally, you’re disconnecting those people from the decade and a half of reinforcement and whatever they have associated with their phones.

To get similar results I was able to just turn off my phone, but that might vary for some. Anyway, it seems reasonable for the experiment at least.

See I don’t follow that one, because how are they actually making money in this theory?

In the real world the ai bullshit is just another grift that’s a giant money pit. While I recognise people that follow these kinds of theories probably don’t have critical thinking skills, I wish they would following thinking to it’s conclusion. It’s a stupid hope I know.

I’m kind of in the same boat.

I think it can fuck with people that rely on self determination for security or self justification? At least the couple of people I’ve met that take issue with the idea seem to mostly be uncomfortable with the implication that their choices and actions might mean less.

Anti sematic behaviour is unfortunately part of the internet and general historical data, which means it could very well be an undercurrent in training data. AIs then could exhibit subconscious biases, no matter how many times the creators tell them not to be racist.

Look, we also probably don’t have free will, but we should live and act like we do. Don’t let the minute details keep you from getting what you can out of this life.

Idk dude, we already have the sun and wind but they hate that stuff too, despite it being very close to free. Hell they’ll probably bitch about fusion causing a surplus of power outside peak loads.

If it doesn’t perpetuate the broken ways we currently do things it doesn’t give their buddies money, so it’s woke or something else bullshit.

No

So the core is very much video poker, in that you make poker hands and score points. The twist is that you can dramatically modify your deck as the run goes on. It’s kind of hard to describe, but things like my king is now worth 50 points, multiplies my score by 5, and I’ve cloned it enough to make fictional hands like flush house, or five of a kind.

Jokers have unique effects that can modify the deck, give additional score, change the rules of the game, that kind of thing.

It’s quite fun and challenging, I highly recommend it.

Depends, usually I’m 100% fine if I’m in a cinema. At home completely fine unless I’m not feeling the movie. I don’t think I pull the trigger to watch something unless I’m absolutely into the idea which helps I think.

Fuck me, I just tried that and it’s so much easier. She’s on to something.

Legit I thought this was about the assassin when I first started reading this.

So this isn’t explicitly stated in the movie at all. It’s only reasonable to assume such a wound would cause issues.

Some might consider it a plot hole, I think that’s more reserved for when the movie goes again it’s own internal logic. I’m pretty generous with movies in these situations, either the movie is running on its own logic set, like cartoon logic or superhero logic, or maybe it’s just a detail that could be explained, but it’s more effort than it’s worth.

For this example, you could totally put a scene in there where Bruce covers the wound with batbandage, hits himself with adrenaline or something, but the result is pretty much the same, and the audience is probably not going to be too interested if you explain everything.

So it’s a bit yes you’re right, but also a bit just go along with it if you can think of any logical explanation.

Not especially in that context, I would say the closest thing I use is “friends”.

Australia catches fire every half decade or so. Never had anything burn down because the RFS are fucking champions, but having it come near to your property is not uncommon here. When the big fires were going in 2019 we were wearing ppe at times to avoid the smoke inhalation. Wild times.

I beat the factorio DLC, right now that’s all I got and I’m clinging to that bad boy

Yeah that was exactly my feelings, I’m actually impressed you got that from my low effort vitreol haha

No, it’s a multinational 3.1 trillion dollar company that has many in house resources it could pull on for a project like this. If they’re gonna sell a product with this kind of server reliance built in, it’s on them to actually hold up their end of the bargain instead of “oh oops looks like the game is just too much of a success guys”.

Bullshit, you own a cloud service and know how to scale a service to meet demand, you just fucked up.

I know Australia is American lite sometimes, but we also have most of these issues. Shit is going bad in a lot of places is my understanding.

I was actually wondering about magnesium, I might give supplementing a try. Thanks!
