This was about sending a message: “stfu or suffer the consequences”. Hence, subsequent people who encounter similar will think twice about reporting anything.

I’d love to see EU numbers side by side for a fair comparison.

It isn’t even safe today, but people still do it.

Even at the basest level of society that we might fall back to, there will be a need for stores of great value in order to make larger trades. You can’t effectively trade large scale without it. Which might not be relevant right after a full system failure, but definitely afterwards.

So much FUD and complete misinformation here. Gold, first and foremost, is a store of value and a hedge against inflation. It’s a terrible investment. That said, if you bought 10k worth of gold 5 years ago, you would now have 20k. Which is obviously a higher return than most savings products or some actual investments.

It’s a hell of a lot safer than BTC and if society does collapse, it will absolutely retain its value.

I don’t feel important enough for that. Same reason I’m not religious. People claiming a personal relationship with the goddamn creator of the universe are hella conceited.

The 2A folks are overwhelmingly on the side of the oppressors…

I’ve “hacked” web apps by logging in with “user - password” or something equally inane.

Yes. I picked up the habit at my (former) job (IT). So I drink a few cups throughout the day. I don’t really feel anything unless overdo it and drink like 4 cups before noon, in which case I get slightly jittery. But I can’t say I’ve noticed any “synergic” issues from combining equasym & caffeine.

Come to think of it, my meds are specifically slow-release. There are versions of methylphenidate that act more immediately.

That’s some final destination shit.

He’s an enemy to humanity. But of particular menace to US and EU.

So far, AI has cost me a few hobbies (as in, made them a lot less enjoyable) and one job.

If there’s an uprising against clankers, you’ll find me at the front lines.

Exceptions for billionaires and industry titans, but none for you.

“Shut up and pass the butter”.

I know some who went to Linux and a few who moved to Mac. But no one is seeing Win11 and saying “oh man, I gotta get in on that”.

He also gave women agency…

This is the correct way to use it. In a field you are already very knowledgeable in, so you can do your own fact-checking. This is absolutely paramount. But most people are content to just copy-paste and don’t even ask the llm for sources.

It’s been pretty obvious for a while now that this is happening, no matter how many people are against it.

I’m willing to bet it had more to do with level of inebriation than suicidality.

Only a matter of time now. And we don’t even have the laws of robotics to protect us.
