Like i said technology is just a tool that can be used for good or bad.
The industrial revolution also gave us vaccines, lower infant mortality, solar panels, smart phones, toilet paper, planes and ships that can deliver aid to people affected by famine, and has improved the life of billions.

For the bidding to be corrupt doesnโ€™t that mean at least some of the players must also be corrupt?

And more power to you. But that doesnโ€™t change that AI is here to stay and is nothing but a tool.

AI is just another technology. Used for both good and bad, we will adapt.
People had complaints at the beginning of the industrial revolution. Those machines took jobs from people where noisy and spewed fumes into the air. But society eventually not only adapted to it but learned to prosper from it.

Magic is built upon a massive body of plagiarized work. When was the last time you saw a magician give credit to the person who created the trick.

07.11.2025 01:10 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 0    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

For me AI is the same as magic.
Itโ€™s fake, the magician knows you know itโ€™s fake but hopes you enjoy his show. The problem is when the magician or psychic claims it is real and commits fraud.

AI ferrets are much more stressed out

A group of domestic dogs are usually unrelated so you can not say the same studies apply to both wolves and domestic dogs.
Two unrelated male dogs will always try to establish dominance.Especially if they have not been neutered.A male dog that thinks he is dominant will go around marking your house

The same misinformation is true about the โ€œalpha male mythโ€.
Biologists donโ€™t believe there is an alpha male in wolf packs so people also claim the same about domestic dogs.
There is no alpha male in a wolf pack because they are a family unit, meaning they are all related.

Brrr. We havenโ€™t even seen frost yet.

On the west coast our night time lows are still 8 and 9 C.
Itโ€™s been heavy rain almost every night for weeks though. Fortunately most days have at least a short break.

Heads up America. Reduced flights at airports wonโ€™t just affect travel plans. It will also affect supply chains, your Amazon orders, and even those meds you buy online.

Thereโ€™s a difference between clean and sanitized. Itโ€™s sanitizing that has caused so many health problems in children.

In BC up to 4 houses are now allowed on a single lot. Even in towns with little or no growth. That means more profit from single lot. But housing prices are still going up. And the dream of a back yard is dead.

Also, pensions would collapse if housing prices actually came down.

No govt will do anything to solve the housing crisis. Developers are large donors. Every solution they tender, if you look at the revenue per sq foot, favors developers not home owners.

Thatโ€™s not a new finding. Itโ€™s been known for years that the cleaner a home is the weaker the immune system of children.

History books will record:

In the history of the US the white house has only been destroyed twice. Both times when Canada was under threat. Both times it was done under orders by a man calling himself king.

Gorgeous day today. Itโ€™s the perfect day to go for a drive in a part of the city Iโ€™ve never been to before, put on some music in another language, and pretend I am on a foreign vacation.

Also record it in the app iNaturalist so entomologists can track their range.

They are also found on the west coast. This is one i recorded. (I report every new bug I see) That length is in inches

Itโ€™s because youโ€™re used to seeing beetles where the wings cover the entire abdomen.

Someones got an infected anal gland. Thatโ€™s different than an impacted anal gland which is what he did have. Improper expressing by the groomer is probably how it got infected.

Thursday he gets sedated and has it flushed out and filled up with antibiotics.

Itโ€™s a case of the previous owners not knowing what they were doing and deciding to do renos themselves.
I also have to check every fixture because some lights have no boxes and in the top floor they ran electrical wire on top of the joists, just beneath the plywood. That was yikes.
