  I likely ordered it. So thank the waiter and start eating.

  I can read a menu.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨World would be a better place⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Given the number of people that think the Sun orbits the Earth and that the Moon is never out in the day time, this would be a good idea. It doesn’t even need to be deep. Just random science facts.

  As an aside, I want to buy a billboard in town and post science facts.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨coping⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Anything than to have to fix my life.

  I don’t shower as I don’t want the females to think I am gay. I don’t read, study, or try so I am not a nerd. I work a deadend job to prove I am “self made”. I avoid the “roids”, the gym, and exercising, which saves me so much time.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Wikipedia Says AI Is Causing a Dangerous Decline in Human Visitors⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I cannot read the article, but this seems like a non-issue.

  Loads of old Wikipedia pages are essentially complete. Just freeze them.

  And didn’t the Wikipedia foundation have years worth of funding already? And wouldn’t fewer visitors imply less need for server and bandwidth?

  Current events need editors, and those will have controversy. I expect primary news sources would be better for anything less than a week old.

  A Wikipedia that freezes at 2024 would still be of great value.

  Clearly, I am missing the problem.

  Whoa Whoa.

  The story of Noah’s Ark is not about saving animals. It is about surviving a calamity that one saw coming, AND NOT saving more of humanity. This way one and their children can become insanely wealthy, and nearly the only humans.

  When one needed an elephant, where did they go? To Noah. Need a chicken? Noah! Need help due to your house washing away, killing you and your family? That’s right, Noah!

  Jesus would be rolling over in his grave, except he left that and is not there.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Employees regularly paste company secrets into ChatGPT⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I fully expect OpenAI and the others are already doing this. And this is why the USA wants to keep China from developing better AI. Not for better AI, but to keep spying on corporate secrets within the USA.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Employees regularly paste company secrets into ChatGPT⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I did those as well. That and not using personal equipment.

  Then at one company, we could use personal equipment. And accepting gifts was suddenly okay. And their training did NOT say I could not buy potential clients sex workers.

  I never had the opportunity to clarify with HR…

  For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.’

  “Then the righteous will answer him, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?’

  “The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’

  Matthew 25:35-40

  Or this is incentive to simplify the devices sent to the US with the complex calculations taking place out of country. Fewer imported chips, more monthly subscriptions.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Who got raptured today?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  They all are disqualified for praying in public. Shouldn’t have done that.

  Also, presuming to tell God what is what, and vanity.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Who got raptured today?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  With a hard cap of 144,000 in Heaven, the rapture happened already.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It's depressing, man⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes. Though gullible people are often stupid. Skeptical people are not necessarily smart, but have learned to not believe everything said to them.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon is exploited⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t know if I would go home at that point…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anyone else notice this??⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  The roofs were hot. I expect ground level in the shade of the house would be better for efficiency.

  Perhaps it had something to do with the location of the indoor unit? I am used to them in the basement or first floor, but some places put them in the ceiling.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon doesn't like AI⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Thank you!

  I was thinking “gurgle gurgle” as filled with liquid… I don’t know what distinct sound the Vaults in Fallout make.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨THIS JUST IN: FBI suspects Kirk was likely targeted, more info to come⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  What was the timing of the US Senate vote to not release the Epstein Files?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨THIS JUST IN: FBI suspects Kirk was likely targeted, more info to come⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  That is the nice thing about the American Way. Just call up the neighboring states’ militias and ask who didn’t show up for drills and if any weapons are missing.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A conundrum⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  We know.

  There are a number of people that have a home in the country with their family, and they travel to the city to work. Sometimes they are homeless during the work, or rent a small room.

  No, it is not the ideal solution, but it is a solution. Fixing the housing situation is beyond most people’s power, and it will take a long time for those trying to fix it to actually fix it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon doesn't like AI⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Given cuts to medicaid and vaccine approvals being rolled back, one had best hurry.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anyone else notice this??⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I know a city in California with the heat exchangers on the roof. Do you have any idea why? (The properties were large enough the footprint wouldn’t be an issue.)

  Where I am in the USA Midwest the heat exchangers are all on the ground as they are easier to install and maintain.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anyone else notice this??⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  What does it cost to buy and install a wood burner?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon tries to meet girls at college⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Live in the dorms and go to parties. The first week before classes start is magical for making friends.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨HR people smiling at you thinking that you are a complete moron⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It is always tempting to try to justify one’s position and get out of being laid-off/fired.

  The decision has been made by those that “know your position”, or your manager is being let go next.

  Stop having sex with the Pharmacist.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨linus tech tip⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Linus Torvalds is super well known for creating Linux. Linux is heavily used in “tech”. Linus is not a common name globally.

  Personally, I had expected that “Linux Tech Tips” was Linux Torvalds giving Linux tech tips. Clearly, I have no bothered to read any of them.

  Good on you for not judging people by their looks.
