Rewatching Stargate sg1... I adore how this highly trained military organisation has no procedures in place for very predictable concerns like contamination, darkness, non-breathable air, or how many times having a former enemy on their team causes people to react badly.
Do a risk assesment lads.

Oh man, if some planet could be made of toasted baguette I could have a galactic french onion soup.....

it's big "the point of writing is to create words right?" energy.

Do some people really not know that we do what we do for the sake of conveying knowledge? Not being correct, not being archivalists, not winning trivia battles, but synthesising ideas and meaning and passing it on.

So that's what makes up jupiter's atmosphere....

Someone posts whales are fish and now they're being planked on?

Absolutely not!

This is elder abuse. Man was walking around wearing sandals with Jesus and you treat him like this?!

This is elder abuse.

I predict poor sales and a confused customer base about what is in this sub.

I'm a deeply flawed individual, but I bring joy to the world.

But also... We know that reliance on GPS erodes spatial navigation.

Information navigation is a core skill of a researcher whether searching for papers or otherwise.

In no other skill would anyone say "look, let the basics erode, you're too good for the fundamentals at a certain point".

I'd agree if every time I tried it wasn't kind of bad and that this wasn't a solution in search of a problem.

It is of no surprise to me that Camus was on the path to become a footballer and instead became an absurdist philosopher... Cantona clearly is the reverse.

Actually the one true answer is everyone's expression during Cantona's incredible high concept speech.

youtu.be/INiT1cA_Eqk?...

There's actually many expressions that will stay with me and most of them are Cantona..

What athlete's expression will stay with you the rest of your life?

Enrange is a perfectly cromulent word.

Labour are splitting the green vote. If they were honourable they'd step aside.

Am I doing this correctly?

or capable or accomplished or...

is this an injoke cos that's twice this morning I've seen the term on here having never seen it before today lol.

Deadly bombing of Iran primary school ‘a grave violation of humanitarian law’: UNESCO The UN education agency, UNESCO, says that the bombing of a primary school during the US and Israeli military attacks on Iran on Saturday constitutes a grave violation of humanitarian law.

When the target of the much-vaunted “precision weapons” deployed by Israel and its puppet, the US is a girl’s primary school, with 150+ defenceless children massacred, you’re left in no doubt that this is state terrorism and the perpetrators are vile criminals.

To stress... That isn't hyperbole. They're syntax machines, not semantics or pragmatics.

They also do not reason.

The entire point of research/creativity is to reason and convey meaning. They *LLMs will never do that*.

I cant remember where I read it, but basically this idea that 'AI good cos it make good words' is to think that the point of the research/creativity is to create words, not the thinking and meaning that is conveyed.

LLMs *do not process meaning and never will*. They're structurally incapable.

I so hope it's a rad skateboard trick.

I grew up in Kent.

There should be no doubt whatsoever that Reform have 0 interest in kent or it's history. They're complete charlatans, their only interest is using it as ideological battleground.

Campaigning to preserve 'british culture' while doing their best to discard it?

37 is too young to be feeling old for "seeing history repeat itself".

a) that's very clearly about how the country should be run and legislation he would pass into law...not "I believe this for myself".

b) Are you not being self-righteous and anonymous also?

Raul Julia in Street Fighter.

Just an absolutely incredibly good, over the top hammed up performance in an otherwise super mediocre film

The "for bison it was Tuesday" speech is amazing.

INSULINDIAN PHASMID - And when you fall we will come to raise you up, bud from you, banner-like, blossom from you and carry you apart in a sky funeral. In honour of your passing. (But not me, because I am just a leaf eater.)
