  Well, if they didn’t care about being flooded with machine generated trash, they wouldn’t have set the limit to books you can self publish down to a mere three per day.

  Here’s a basically fully automated service where you can generate a shitty book for $200. You can even have it printed as a paperback for more useless waste or have it AI narrated as a shitty audiobook.

  This can only mean that Google is about to axe a product that people like and instead introduce a new chat app.

  It’ll never be truly equal as long as there’s a fixed order of the letters. The only way to make it fair is to include all the letters (from every writing system, not just the latin because that feels overly eurocentric) and the guarantee true randomness of the order or come up with some system where the order is shifted by one every time it’s mentioned. Also, the original letters must be in the center to begin with (to make them equally distant for RTL or LTR readers), to make up for their historical over exposure.

  I saw a clip from probably Fox where someone made that point. He wanted to be able to use his grandma’s recipes for whatever and also noted that the metric system was creacted by revolutionaries, the implication obvious being the pride that North America has never had a single revolution, which is why you’ll see pictures of the king in every classroom and the union jack being flown everywhere in the colonies.

  There was. Here’s a clip: youtu.be/rUOlnvGpcbs?si=wCT1Rzjev7XVWXM-

  It’s a variation of Schubert’s “Impromptu in G-flat major” adapted to 12 fingers by Michael Nyman.

  Cool trivia about that movies is that it includes a piece of piano music written specifically for a 12-fingered pianist.

  Mirror will be appreciated

  Great video.

  Also, I wonder if that dude ever got his Xbox controller instead of that stupid vase.
