You can hate font plagiarizing AI without hating cancer-curing AI. The biggest lie is that those are somehow the same thing. No, your slop-manufacturing LLM isn’t going to stumble upon a cancer cure. Stop wasting trillions on the slop machine and actually invest in bespoke, targeted models tuned by competent researchers.

It’s deluxe garbage people collect.

Stale urine, known as wash or lant, was a source of ammonium salts and assisted in cleansing and whitening the cloth and having its fibers intertwined.
Doesn’t seem to help in ‘softening’ or ‘making it more full’?

Possibly, I didn’t generate it myself. A quick check says 74% confidence it’s AI.

Yup.

Dryer compared to paper towels, I was (maybe not clearly enough) comparing using an air dryer to leaving your hands wet. The linked study seems to underline the importance of any form of drying multiple times.
The study also doesn’t seem to be as conclusive to me as you’re making it out to be. It suggests paper towels might be preferred, but it’s not like you should skip the air dryer because it multiplies bacteria and blows them all over the place.

False, most diseases don’t transmit by air, so having dry hands helps more in preventing disease transmission than the supposed harm of hand dryers blowing it around.

Woah, the book getting cancelled is pretty drastic, got an email recently saying it’s basically already printed.
- Comment on This makes so much more sense 4 weeks ago:
Asia was named such by the Europeans, meaning something like ‘the land of the sunrise’ and thus referencing its Eastern position relative to Europe.
Etymonline cites a possible Akkadian origin for ‘europe’ meaning ‘to go down, set’, which would mirror the origin for the word ‘asia’.
In other words, Europe and Asia might literally mean ‘the western and eastern bit,’ making perfect sense.

It’s pink, which is a pretty and uncommon color for salt from other places.
It’s Himalayan and therefore oriental.
It’s a crystal, but cheap (cause it’s salt).
Some weirdos think crystals have beneficial magic properties just from being in their vicinity.
Combine those and you have the perfect mass-market object for white people to become obsessed with.

So she is doing bad at getting good dates? Doesn’t seem like a her-problem 😅

I slept with both of them. I’ve been on a lot of dates.
Doesn’t sound like she’s doing all that bad with men 🤔

The water theory is absolutely improbable.

Yeah probably, though more opportunistic than most people probably imagine. They’d likely only hunt when convenient, during migrations or such, and switch to different food sources the rest of the year. That’s how I imagine it at least.

The Starch Runner Hypothesis seems more plausible to me.

What people though? I’ve seen this ‘fact’ mentioned online which seems to trace back to some 2022 article. But growing up Fugazi was seemingly always considered emo.

Fugazi is an emo band.
