Sky News describing him an an ex-Arsenal player.

My reaction reading that:

Do he and his followers really think this would make everyone forget about his impeachments? Because it won’t. It’ll just cause everyone else to mock him even harder for being corrupt and insecure.

I think it’s talking about a Carrington level event.

I get that it says the enslavement of humanity happens after AI perfects itself. But based purely on the current state of Claude, ChatGPT, etc it would not surprise me at all if it completely forgot about solar flares.

Archived link.

His expression in that thumbnail says: “oh shit, what has my life become?!”

The idiocy never ceases to amaze me. Just when I think I’ve seen it all, they find a new and ridiculous way to exhibit it.

Did people genuinely think they had created a bespoke bit of hardware? Wow.

Yeah, I agree. As conservatives go Ike was pretty reasonable.

My point was that almost as soon as the party got the Whitehouse again, influential portions of it started to plot for the next Great Depression like catastrophy.

As an ideological movement, they’ve proved many times that they cannot be trusted with power.

And only 6 years after they finally got the Whitehouse again, they started plotting for the next massive fuck up era by founding the John Birch Society (which is a major cause for the GOP’s current psychosis.

Oh, thanks.

Haha, fair enough.

Holy shit does this resonate!

I spend hours each week hand-holding, manipulating, and sometimes fighting with LLMs. We are encouraged to use them at work, but it’s always a coin toss. Will it nail the task at hand on the first attempt? Or will it fall down a black hole of bad assumptions and getting stuck in stupid loops?

And it’s not due to ‘bad prompts’ as the kool aid drinkers frequently claim. I’ve had enough practice with them now, and I’ve had others review them and give a thumbs up.

‘Botsitting’… I like that. Very apt.

‘Gooner’ = Arsenal FC fan. We’ve used that term for decades (it started out as a sarcastic variation of ‘gunner’ used by opposition fans, but we adopted it). This stupid new slang meaning for the word can fuck off.

Slightly, compared to a week or so ago.

Yeah, there was too much flopping going on for sure. And yeah, that double save was great, especially since she apparently hurt her shoulder in the landing of the first save.

The commentators in that video were predictably crap. One of them was talking about how this was going to be a life-changing positive experience for the USWNT. I mean, it was good experience for dealing with a dirty, riled-up team and doing shithousery against them. But if that overall experience really transforms the team then they were in a pretty poor state.

I agree, that was a silly card. Though he didn’t help the situation by draping his white shirt over the shoulder of the assistant ref after he took it off. Very passive-aggressive and pretty demeaning to the official. That probably drew the ire of the ref so she was going to be more willing to throw another card at him.

That was really the big takeaway from this match - especially with the Brazilian players and staff. Far too many antagonistic actions that came back to haunt them.

That first player who got sent off not leaving the pitch for several minutes was ridiculous.

Two to players during the match.

Four to coaching staff during the match.

Two to players after the final whistle.

What a shambles of a game! I watched the highlights with my wife. Her reaction: “they are not being good examples of what women’s football is capable of!” And she’s right. Too many misplaced passes and shots missed, but even worse was the constant shirt-pulling and dirty shenanigans.

Most of Brazil’s players lost their heads during the match, and so did the staff. Very poor show.

Yes, that was it. Thanks.

“then you think” really adds to this meme.
