millirabbit.bsky.social @millirabbit.bsky.social · 06/06/2025Does anyone else think 90GW of power for AI (not to mention the cost in water and infrastructure) is asking too much? Meanwhile, affordable EVs are too power-hungry... 000
millirabbit.bsky.social @millirabbit.bsky.social · 19/04/2025I'd rather eat once per month at a truly fine dining restaurant than eat multiple times per month at fast food restaurants. Typically, I spend less, and I leave the meal feeling satisfied and impressed. 000

millirabbit.bsky.social @millirabbit.bsky.social · 19/03/2025Best way to eat an egg is sunny side up over toast or other grains and then popping the yolk for amazing cholesterol rich flavor! 020
millirabbit.bsky.social @millirabbit.bsky.social · 19/03/2025Im cool with diversity and DEI as long as it's legit and not a stupid slide show people skip through and retry the quiz as many times as needed to pass. 100
millirabbit.bsky.social @millirabbit.bsky.social · 24/01/2025I think everyone believes in free speech in the theoretical sense. However, most people don't actually follow through with it. Left, right or center. It's just too easy to want to silence people you disagree with. Whether it's nazis or groomers, using each side's terms. 020
millirabbit.bsky.social @millirabbit.bsky.social · 24/01/2025The problem is the left doesn't believe it, either. Free speech is optional to both parties. The second amendment doesn't exist to the left. The fifth doesn't exist to the right. The General Welfare has been abandoned. We need to get tough and be bold. Snowflakes all around preventing discussion. 110
millirabbit.bsky.social @millirabbit.bsky.social · 24/01/2025Worrying is kind of a waste of time. Just do your work. If he takes away funding, find another job. Sitting around worrying or moaning will not help you or anyone. This is a time to work so he doesn't destroy our communities. 000
millirabbit.bsky.social @millirabbit.bsky.social · 24/01/2025What pisses me off is when I am trying something new and insurance demands, they send me 90 pills. Why? What if it doesn't work or if we need to increase the dose? 000
millirabbit.bsky.social @millirabbit.bsky.social · 24/01/2025Iowa is no longer the state it used to be. "Be and let be" gave them gay marriage and women's rights, but over the last decade, it's become a right wing safe haven. 020
millirabbit.bsky.social @millirabbit.bsky.social · 23/01/2025"An uninstructed person will lay the fault of his own bad condition upon others. Someone just starting instruction will lay the fault on himself. Someone who is perfectly instructed will place blame neither on others nor on himself." - Epictetus 000
millirabbit.bsky.social @millirabbit.bsky.social · 23/01/2025If anything, recent changes with corporations and government have made me want guns. I used to think we wouldn't need the Second Amendment, but I just don't trust Homan or Trump to not raid my house for disagreeing. 000
millirabbit.bsky.social @millirabbit.bsky.social · 23/01/2025Solution to H1Bs: Mandate their pay be the average American salary for the position + 50%. This pays them for their role in solving urgent needs but also incentivizes companies to start training or hiring Americans for cheaper labor. 010
millirabbit.bsky.social @millirabbit.bsky.social · 23/01/2025I think I'll start throwing solutions out on this platform for American problems. Nothing perfect, but let's stimulate some brainstorming. 000
millirabbit.bsky.social @millirabbit.bsky.social · 23/01/2025I'm not saying leaving the WHO was a good idea. Just doubting that leaving the WHO = inadequate pandemic response. Other avenues existed without it. Its still a good org. 100
millirabbit.bsky.social @millirabbit.bsky.social · 23/01/2025Has the WHO actually ever helped the US or is it just us providing help for other countries? I thought our problems were primarily dealt with by the CDC. 100
millirabbit.bsky.social @millirabbit.bsky.social · 23/01/2025www.investopedia.com/heres-why-eg... They've been saying it.investopedia.comEgg Prices Are Soaring Again. Here's WhyU.S. egg prices have soared as producers grapple with the impact of avian influenza, or bird flu, just as they did nearly two years ago. Relief may be around the corner. 000
millirabbit.bsky.social @millirabbit.bsky.social · 22/01/2025I think setting up a new NYA. Get young people learning useful skills. 000
millirabbit.bsky.social @millirabbit.bsky.social · 22/01/2025He won because people didn't vote. They didn't vote because the democrats were yanking our chains instead of listening to their constituents. They pretended everything is fine instead of acknowledging people's lives could be better. 000
millirabbit.bsky.social @millirabbit.bsky.social · 21/01/2025I think the problem you identified is they don't read. Text-based news often provides 10x more information than video. This makes sense since videos take more time to produce and often are given time limits to wrap it up. 000
millirabbit.bsky.social @millirabbit.bsky.social · 21/01/2025That's bold. I expect the right keeps it up for 4 years. 100
millirabbit.bsky.social @millirabbit.bsky.social · 14/01/2025I have a hard time believing those false claims are not either schizophrenia online or state actors trying to spread misinformation. I guess it could also be trolls. The spread is with bots or gullibles. 010
millirabbit.bsky.social @millirabbit.bsky.social · 13/01/2025If you read my comment as serious, then I'm sorry for the insane people you are surrounded by. 030
millirabbit.bsky.social @millirabbit.bsky.social · 13/01/2025That painting was done by a gay man with an intolerant view of masculinity. The wigs were added to promote woke leftist transgender ideology. The forefathers couldn't draw, so they just accepted it. 120
millirabbit.bsky.social @millirabbit.bsky.social · 13/01/2025You'll be getting a BBB complaint for causing my wife to leave me. It's caused irreparable harm to my psyche even if I look stylish. 000
millirabbit.bsky.social @millirabbit.bsky.social · 09/01/2025I think the ban exists due to wanting to distance themselves from the Nazis. However, I think it ends up circling back anyway. People are animals and we have biases that are easy to exploit. Our best hope is that people empower themselves to think critically. Ideally, our schools would promote that. 000
millirabbit.bsky.social @millirabbit.bsky.social · 07/01/2025Yep, fundamentally, people are their own problem. Regulation, ideally, nudges them toward their own best interest. However, the only true solution is being self-aware and disciplined. We can't do that for them. I discuss using environmental cues as a way to make change easier. 110
millirabbit.bsky.social @millirabbit.bsky.social · 07/01/2025This is true to an extent. However, there are options to reduce this. You can follow or subscribe to specific channels. You can block certain channels. You can do something else or go somewhere else. The truth of it is that the larger social hive mind is impacted by those controls. 220
millirabbit.bsky.social @millirabbit.bsky.social · 07/01/2025Social media is up to users, though. I refuse to use TikTok. I mostly stopped using FB and Twitter. Twitter and FB changed their behavior in response to users switching to Bluesky and other platforms. They are changing because they make money off your attention which you control. 1101
millirabbit.bsky.social @millirabbit.bsky.social · 07/01/2025I just use the list feature. It allows me to curate for myself and also organize things by interest. 180
millirabbit.bsky.social @millirabbit.bsky.social · 07/01/2025I imagine the only think Trump ACTUALLY cares about is negative press specifically about him and his character. Everything else doesn't matter. 000
millirabbit.bsky.social @millirabbit.bsky.social · 07/01/2025So what happens if they do it anyway? Do they get fired? Can they take the government to court? Obviously, obeying this is not an option. 100
millirabbit.bsky.social @millirabbit.bsky.social · 07/01/2025Early Adopters: AI will change the world. AI: *Cold and calculated, determines perfect pricing scheme to charge rent to human beings low enough that they can barely afford it but high enough that they are essentially enslaved to their work in order to simply afford rent. 000
millirabbit.bsky.social @millirabbit.bsky.social · 03/01/2025Each antidepressant is different and for many people, it allowed them to even step into the party. Wait... does that make SSRIs gate way drugs? 000
millirabbit.bsky.social @millirabbit.bsky.social · 03/01/2025Again, I don't look at marijuana as a bad thing. But I also know it's not harmless just like anything else in life. Moderation. Marijuana used to be more harmless when it was 6% concentration. Rare cases of nausea or psychosis. At high concentrations, the rates of problems increased. 110
millirabbit.bsky.social @millirabbit.bsky.social · 03/01/2025Or maybe if you talk to hundreds of people every month like I do in various places in life with various levels of wealth you start noticing what research has already proven which is marijuana can cause amotivational syndrome. It just does. Not to everyone, but even 10% would be high. 100
millirabbit.bsky.social @millirabbit.bsky.social · 03/01/2025Congratulations on breaking through the first year! I know how hard it can be and also how much better life gets the longer you stay sober. Hope your life keeps getting better and that the hard times in life become easier to get through! 120
millirabbit.bsky.social @millirabbit.bsky.social · 03/01/2025You sound like the person who actually does their research. Many people do not and it's caused harm. Hence, we need more regulation. Regulation doesn't have to be a ban, but needs to address accidental injuries in some way. I've also noticed more amotivational syndrome and depression. 100
millirabbit.bsky.social @millirabbit.bsky.social · 03/01/2025What do you mean? If the economy is so bad, people should be drinking and smoking less. 100
millirabbit.bsky.social @millirabbit.bsky.social · 03/01/2025Many natural and healthy food items, and many more if you moderate the intake like sugar. 110
millirabbit.bsky.social @millirabbit.bsky.social · 03/01/2025Honestly, certain forms of THC need regulation. It was fine when people just smoked grass, but now there's very high concentration products that are harmful. 210
millirabbit.bsky.social @millirabbit.bsky.social · 03/01/2025I know you're joking, but I never drink when I'm in a bad mood. It's too easy to turn it into a crutch or make bad decisions. 2160
millirabbit.bsky.social @millirabbit.bsky.social · 03/01/2025Better to take prescribed drugs. Cheaper and even the worst options are generally safe. 220
millirabbit.bsky.social @millirabbit.bsky.social · 29/12/2024This is exactly what I said when ChatGPT got big. Everything in life has limits. I just don't see a machine doing the insane task of being a human being without extremely high resource needs. Do people not understand that human beings are made up of over 100 trillion connections between neurons. 0170
