Thank you so much to the countless people supporting us in every way and in particular all of the Rutgers students and faculty who have supported us every step of the way.

The easy way to explain why Jared leto continues to appear in movies is that he has *incredibly* damning epstein-level blackmail on everyone in hollywood

LLM AI exists to crush labour. That's not even my surmise, the people paying billions of dollars to fund this stuff are extremely open and explicit that this is their goal.

There are no ethical use cases for LLMs at this point in time. Maybe when the bubble has popped thoroughly. Not before.

The problem is, to deal with things like AI, you have to be fully aware that those in charge will pit the comfortable against the desperate, and that the desperate need to survive more than the comfortable can help them.

Started working on a custom campaign setting. Starting with subclasses to sort of build out the world from the principal interaction point. Total of two new subclasses for each class.

If you know basic kabbalah it's actually not too hard to make a golem out of a labubu. Don't recommend it though. They have a pre-existing body-dharma. As soon as they wake they run straight for the sea. V hard to counter. Lost the first one. No idea what it's doing out there. Moved like lightning.

As far as living songwriters it's gotta be either Tom Waits or Nick Cave. Which is a wrench to say since Nick Cave is a horrible human being but fuck he knows his way around a song.

Or is this just a case of the mods stomping on trans people in specific?

Again.

Either way, it will be a glorious day when all their crypto wealth crashes like an autopilot Tesla driving through a flammable mannequin factory.

What will the AI data centre boom mean for Canada? | The Narwhal Sprawling AI data centres, like Kevin O’Leary’s plans for Wonder Valley in Alberta, are hungry for land, water and power

not if it continues to advance and improve for another 1000 years could AI generate an idea I hate more than "kevin o'leary building the world's biggest data centre in a drought-prone region without consent from local Nations"

And to think that all my mom had to do while pregnant to get an obsessed with dune neuroatypical child was attend a Bob Marley concert.

Jays having a deep bullpen has been a core to their best outings since the early-1990s.
