  AI-powered NPCs is like a childhood dream come true. But I agree it would be better for them to use a model running on the user’s system or at the very least host their own.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I am an American. I used to be proud of my country. Now it feels like a turd circling the drain. Is there anything going on behind the scene that America is actually doing good in?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m an American, so take what I say with a grain of salt, but I can imagine being proud of one’s country’s institutions. When a nation actually pulls off democratic republicanism, it’s something to be proud of. When a nation’s institutions protect civil rights and promote egalitarianism, it’s something to be proud of because that takes a lot to set up. Ultimately, a government is something built by a community and shaped by a culture. The people at the top would like to fool you into believing that government is a clash of wills between politicians, but they’re just the tip of the iceberg.

  Although our highest offices have been corrupt for a long time (always?), Project 2025 dismantled many of our proudest institutions.

  When I was a kid, I used to have a runny nose all the time. By high school, I started carrying a tissue box, trash bag, and hand sanitizer around in my backpack.

  I had no idea this existed, but I just ordered it. My wife was obsessed with Cheez-Its during her first pregnancy, so I think she’ll get a kick out of it! Thank you 🥲
