At least we haven't gotten flying cars. Humans can barely handle sharing the road; thank God there aren't 20-something dudes texting and plowing into winged family cars overhead

No expert natch. But our frogs live to hide under the water avens (when they're not under stones)

This is one of the most beautiful things I have witnessed, the craft here is impeccable.

• After we die, will I hear your voice? • When I die, will they put me in a grave with my mom and dad? • When it rains, will we drown in the tent? • When they bomb the tent, will we burn? • Why do they always bomb us? • If they bombed someone while I was walking next to him, would I be martyred? • When a missile hits us do we feel pain or die immediately? • I don't want to die in pieces. • Will the dogs that ate the dead bodies of the martyrs turn into humans? • Do children who have their legs amputated grow new legs? • Why is the boy's face covered in blood? • When will we die and get rid of the bombing and the Israelis? • Do the pilots who bomb children have children? • Every day you say that tomorrow the war will end. • How many years have we been at war? • I want to go to heaven because there is no fear of war, and it has everything. • When will we stop waiting and standing in line for fresh water and salty water? • When will we go back to school? • When will we have our room back and the displaced people return to their homes? • When will the war end? • When will the destruction and death end?

Chatbots — LLMs — do not know facts and are not designed to be able to accurately answer factual questions. They are designed to find and mimic patterns of words, probabilistically. When they’re “right” it’s because correct things are often written down, so those patterns are frequent. That’s all.

Experts also say Israel has a massive and unregulated nuclear program and that’s what we should be worrying about because they’re an unhinged rogue terrorist state with a proven and currently ongoing track record of wanton violence. (Not from the article)

The world isn't silent on Gaza - this is by far the most vocal I have seen the general public on a political issue in my lifetime. I have also never seen a bigger difference between the anger of the public and the inaction of specific institutions and governments. That's the crucial disconnect.

I'm a moderate on the issue of cars, I don't think they should be banned but I do think they should all be this. Now I know what you're thinking: what if I need to go fast or need more space? That's just too bad

A Korean actress in traditional attire looks intently at someone off-screen. The image features a caption that states "[stares in Japanese]."

She argues in Italian
She sings to you in French
She yells at you in German
In tones that make you clench
The girl is complicated
And very hard to please
When you disappoint her

I’ll just leave this here then:

AI picture of Trump as a Jedi because we don’t deserve nice things any more.

If you ever wondered what a modern democracy would look like if it was run by a combination of teenage incels, billionaires with late-stage Alzheimer’s & white supremacists, wonder no longer.

All very modern I'm sure…

Libertarians are like house cats: fiercely convinced of their own independence while fully dependent on a system they neither understand or appreciate.
