I’d gladly pay them about $10 a month for a family plan.

At that point, maintaining AdBlocker updates on half a dozen different platforms would be more pain than the money.

But let’s be honest, they’re not putting out Netflix and Disney quality content, it’s just 5-9’s of slop with an occasional diamond of a creator.

at $27 a month, and a trajectory over time to be more expensive than cable, they can fuck right off.

paying a living wage is cheaper than trying to quell a labor uprising.

It would be like me to make a joke of it, but this one was real.

My 6yo woke me up at 5am after i went to sleep at 3am, demanded french toast.

I made it with one eye open. The first batch was without milk/cream/sugar. Not to be one to waste food, I made a second batch for him with all the right stuff and tried to see if I could recover the first batch enough I could eat it.

I had 5 or 6 cooked slices to work worth, tried various things to add sweet including powered sugar and syrup, but somehow the eggy bite was just alternated with violent sweetness. Not great.

The second slice, I tried rubbing with fresh basil and dusting with fine salt, that turned out ok.

The third slice I used everything bagel seasoning and that was pretty banging. The savor didn’t seem to suffer with a lack of mixing like the sweet stuff did.

Savory French toast isn’t amazing, but honestly it wasn’t awful. I probably wouldn’t make it again unless i screwed up.

I did try panco breading some recently after the soak, then deep-frying, which wasn’t half bad.

Just egg by itself would be super gross I suspect.

it’s not horrible, but it needs salt. It becomes savory.

I’d like to downvote and say no that’s wrong.

But I don’t know that’s wrong, I’d really like to think it and belive it because the VAST majority of history has put them on the right. But that could just be confirmation bias.

The right certain has their share of horrible people.

If it doesn’t just download copies from libgen you’ve already paid once.

What I’d actually like to know is how it was chosen. At that distance, we can’t see anything from position and luminosity, and even the luminosity is rough to bake out of other bias. We’re better at telling that there’s a moon. Is this an artists rendition? It is a reasonable calculation due to age and plate tectonics?

I don’t hate it, but if it’s just art for the sake of art, why not go earth-like?

Not that long ago, a single factory worker made enough to buy a small house, a car, have 2 kids and take a 2 week yearly vacation.

We’re really pumping the gas on inequity.

This combination of generations is lost. Most of the age groups are either pushing for things to get worse, ignoring things that are bad or rooting on the coming apocalypse. It’ll get better when we get a few more new gens in the game, asuming it can be recovered

I do a few things at work that I use AI for. Work had a gpt enterprise key, now we’ve moved to claude. Through O365, I also have access to copilot.

Pretty much anything I ask claude or gpt about, I can be sure to get a solid answer or one that was at least on Stack Exchange or Reddit. If that fails, and I drill down a little more on a problem, adding details, they’ll both get a little better after a couple of questions and usually come up with a reasonable answer.

Not copilot. If you ask copilot something and it doesn’t come back in one shot with an authoritative cited answer, just walk away. It makes no attempt to ensure the answer is right or sane. It either hit in training or it didn’t. And if it didn’t, trying to convince it to strike out in a few other directions to solve it is absolutely a fool’s errand.

It’s like they bought into OpenAI, then never got any updates or made any progress. I

Yes I get that, but again, this is very focused on YOU. What about your friends and family who will suffer from the reduced value of the world. What about the general population?

I don’t comprehend how that is focused on me. Anyone save someone with cognitive impairment with unlimited time would progress. They could put $25 in a bank account and check back in 200 years.

who will suffer from the reduced value of the world.

I don’t understand your take on this either. Time creates whatever value is needed. The rest of the world will continue on as it does now, the scope of whomsoever value was extended would extend exponentially. just because one person is granted unlimited time doesn’t take anything away from anyone else, they just become capable of more production throughout their timeline.

With unlimited time you could theoretically make a perfect world for yourself, one day. But it does nothing for things that are valuable now.

That’s the whole point of this exercise, by choosing unlimited time, now is no different. 100 years would be slightly changed. Think bloodless vampire, not Methuselah

I’m just against the idea that there is nothing of value besides things you could also achieve with unlimited time.

Again it’s not that everything else is null, it’s that the power created to the unlimited timeline makes all the other value inconsequential.

With infinite time, you’ll survive past the climate change issues, or perhaps even manage to elevate yourself to the level of supreme ruler with unlimited wealth and have the other billionaires heads on pikes.

I think you’re REALLY underselling unlimited time.

With time, you can make money.

With unlimited time, you can become an artisan in any scope you wish.

All other values are, the long way around, derived from time.

Dying on a hill is hard. I’m not even going to respond to their last batch. They don’t see it, us trying to make them see it isn’t going to provide interesting or useful discourse or make them feel any better about it :)

I only draw lines for myself.

Yet here you are telling people where they’re not allowed to draw lines for others.

I am not arrogant to claim to speak for anyone else.

this is the issue. you assume your social norms are shared by everyone. they aren’t. and then mods and such impose their social norms on everyone else rather than let the users decide what content they want to see.

That’s you, speaking for everyone else.

Trying to impose my bullshit on other people who never asked for it,

nobody asked for what you’re saying now.

You’re literally trying to define the social norm while telling eveyone else they should not get to pick the social norm.

Advocating for eveyrone to refuse to censor anything is same trap as advocating for people to censor things.

And there will always be lines. Gonna block outright harassment? Gonna block kiddie pics, Gonna block a bunch of people organizing how to cut the power to a town, kill people, get away with murder?

So, where the hell do you want to draw the lines, and why does that location not make you a product of exactly what you’re accusing everyone else of?

As long as the encryption keys being used are registered with the ISPs they could decode it.

You would make the law so that if an ISP did not decode traffic for DPI, it would be liable for it. They’d drop any non DPI able packets so fast it’d make your head spin.

umm, it was uhhh, research
