LLM shills can't decide if they'll result in the end of the world, or lives of infinite leisure My guess, it will be the biggest personal data harvesting operation in history, and a bunch of the biggest leaks of personal data I can't imagine giving access to the stuff many willingly feed into it

The Dems just need to sit back and shut up, no need to remind people why they don’t like you… just let the GOP keep lighting their own hair on fire

Here’s hoping. She’s cynically played with fire to forward her own career, all the while fronting perhaps the most corrupt government we’ve seen, certainly in modern times I hope the result is definitive, puts the last nail in her political coffin, and drives a wedge thru the heart of that party

Honestly, NHL teams need to be taken away from Canadian markets. It's for the betterment of society, it really is.

Surely the regional NHL rights must be a massive part of TSN's spending... really makes me wonder why the TSN1 region has to pay the same amount as the other regions despite never having any regional NHL rights there

With my luck I'd have a medical event on a plane with 15 doctors... but they're all PhD's in philosophy and economics, and spend the time debating if the world would be morally and financially better off without me

This is even worse than the Riders and their 13th man nonsense in 2009… that was more cosmic irony than anything. This was more self-imposed… like The Jacobellis

So I spent two days wondering why nothing seemed able to connect to the internet, thinking the routers got messed up by the power outage… then finally realized I route all the DNS traffic through an old iMac, and I never turned it back on

Looked kinda like this. PC clone, dual floppy drives (5 1/4 inch, so actually floppy), no hard drive, DOS only, no mouse. Not sure we ever got much more than a few games to run on it.

When I first started doing CFO stuff, I'd often hide my work, cause I didn't want the board/execs to realize how incredibly simple most of what I do is. I've long since stopped bothering. I don't just show my work, I walk them thru how I do it. And they remain, utterly f***ing clueless
