I feel sad that I can’t boycott these spineless cowards because I haven’t been a customer since forever.

A dumpster fire with an orange clown as president and firestarter in chief, burning all the good will the international allies had towards it. Deeply sad and worrisome, just when we needed them the most given the Russia/China threat.

I don’t trust myself that much.

I’m sure they were not killing each other over imaginary friends, or debating whether mammary glands should banned.

The 1350’s specifically.

As a relatively recent country (by European standards), USA did not go through the Middle Age. I guess this is it. Enjoy the public burnings of heretics.

I’m saving this thread to make a watch list, but I’ll add a comedy I haven’t seen mentioned: The Blues Brothers

Triangle is great, just watch it without googling it.

That’s a weird attitude. You know the jokes are about the racists and you still feel you are somehow doing something bad by enjoying it?

I worked in a company where this was used for implementing tamper evident logs, that allowed auditors to check for tampering.

Blockchain is just a tool that can have legitimate uses other than scamming people.

Tamper evident logs are a good use case for blockchain.

Exactly what I thought. I’ll keep my Tidal account, thank you very much.

Here is your theme song.

I feel the same way. I can read really fast and get to the juice of an article faster than it takes for the YouTube video to go through the introduction, sponsors, etc.

Nothing but Flowers by Talking Heads is a cheerful song about post-apocalyptic life.

I had the same experience.

I kept comparing it with the absolute masterpiece that is Half-Life and it felt boring.

The story doesn’t pull you, no characters are memorable, in some areas I felt like I was cleaning the exact same room over and over.

Even compared to something like Doom II, which lacks any real story and is all about playability and fun, it felt lacking.

I guess it’s just not for me.

Think of it as leveling up.

That’s my point.

Unlimited human stupidity fueled by unending greed.

Why fear artificial intelligence when natural stupidity is so much more powerful?

Qwen 2.5, running on my laptop, had this to say:

“Moon shines bright, stars dance in the sky.”

Not very poetic if you ask me. I guess you used a similar LLM.
