Look at this man-child calling names and whining...again. You could answer the question, but I guess a repeat of the mike thing won't work here?

Omigod, this is the most heartwarming story possible! Backpack (bear 89) is the son of the 2019 winner of Fat Bear Week, Holly (bear 435). In 2007, he injured his foot & a practice of riding on momma's Holly's back had a new meaning: he was mobility-restricted while it healed. So Holly moved him.
From DISCVR blog's Facebook page, a momma bear & a yearling cub on her back in the shallow water.  I think the background has been swapped out, and I can't rule out some AI use there?  God, Facebook has become the social media for AI slop : (

The title of the article, which I link below, is "How Bear 89 earned the name Backpack"

this has got worse and worse the more information has come out, i was imagining a spat between professionals but it is sounding FAR FAR more like a really fortunate event that the plane even managed to land www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cw...

Barney.
A gray tabby cat reclining on a cardboard sofa. A sign is in front of him that says "I work hard so my cat can have a better life". The cat looks at the camera, serene and content in his splendor.

looking at the 2022 exit (2024 didn't do this) by the regions of Ohio so basically... Cincinnati/Dayton gets WAY bluer, everywhere else Dems either gain a little or slip a little, but GOP turnout is clearly collapsing pretty much everywhere this is a story of Republicans just not voting this year

Back yard plans are coming together. 1. The big crepe myrtles by the main bedroom window have to go. Not enough cooling/shade, too close to the house. 2. My yard is not level. 3. I plant to turn over and level to ten feet from the foundation while I dig up the crepe myrtles.

it's burned into my brain
imagine spending the better part of the last 5 years having your brain and ego melted by uninterrupted /pol/ exposure, flying to washington in the
middle of a pandemic to hear trump
51 KB JPG whine about oprah and mike pence at
a rally, marching up to congress on his
orders to smash shit and then mill around aimlessly you go home and hear that biden won anyway and all of your favorite twitter news sources named like Patriot Newsman Of the West with avatars of roman statues have posted your photo online and are labeling you a "gay communist antifa actor." then the next day the god emperor you pasted into warhammer memes puts out a video cucking himself and bending the knee. "I'm sorry, those were heinous acts! p-please let me tweet again jack!!" you can't leave de because the airlines have dubbed you a flight risk. you can't stay because the cops are actively looking for you after one of their own died. your roommate at the only hotel that would accept you is a guy named based_kekistani1488 who wants to show you his goblin slayer torrents. the sun is
going down and you're getting cold.

Ok, this "there are two separate brains" thing appears to be making the rounds, and I want to be absolutely clear: this is a press office overhyping some perfectly reasonable science that won't come as a surprise to most developmental biologists.

This leads to a credibility gap: to put it crudely, why should anyone trust AI safety analysis when y'all are partying with SPECTER and cashing checks from Blofeld? Why should anyone take analysis of lone wolf/PLA misuse of open-weight models seriously when there's no similar analysis of XAI?

The thing about actual Roman damnationes memoriarum is that they didn't really obliterate all memory of a bad emperor. None of our sources are afraid to talk about these figures. It wasn't truly about forgetting the guy, but about abolishing his (positive) public commemoration.

People struggle to reconcile: A. AI has had minimal impact on most of our lives outside of work. B. AI marketing is the worst of user-facing software marketing with an added level of invasiveness and personal offense. C. AI has fundamentally changed and accelerated STEM research.

Adventures in stump removal: I have a good axe, shovel, dirt rake (I think that’s the name?), and of course, gloves. My inventory is missing a cutter mattock, chain saw, good rope, and a wood chipper. All of these are technically optional if you’re adventuresome or don’t need to grind anything up.

Cults are self-reinforcing. Behavior that benefits the stated purpose of the cult is encouraged. Behavior that contradicts is squashed under peer pressure and threats of exclusion. Once your cult starts making money and growing, the pressure to conform increases.

This idea seems to be the most infectious because it activates the same neurosis that every apocalyptic or millenarian cult does. The world is going to end, and only I and my special group of people in the know can maybe stop it. (Also, you should give me money and have sex with me.)
