Oh really?
The people that insist their interpretation of literature is correct even after authors clarify that they’re reading to far into it?
They’re barely better than tarot card readers.
Go ahead and pass along all their words if you don’t mind.
I just can’t think of a more perfect arrangement to hear what the “field of literary analysis” has to say to me, than thru an account I’ve just blocked.
I also wanted to see if people thought he was beautiful themselves
Welp
Clearly nothing I said made sense to you
It’s an imaginary character there’s no consensus on how he was supposed to look…
He’s whatever you picture in your head, and the story obviously says he’s attractive.
What possible answer besides “yes” is there?
It’s like asking if the Road Runner was really smarter than the coyote nothing in any of the stories indicates he wasn’t, so why would anyone answer differently?
Buddy…
Ask anyone that used to be a child if their parents knew about all the shit they got up to.
You think you know everything and are on top of, but so do every parent.
Hopefully your kid knows how to take care of himself.
No one else is going to apparently
This is actually smart thinking…
The cyber trucks they produce today, will sit on the lot for years before demand catches up thru backlog. Since all they’re going to do for 3-5 years is sit in a parking lot, they don’t need fancy luxuries like steering wheels or door handles.
Did Mickey Mouse really have big ears?
Narcissus was an allegory for anyone who focused too much on their own appearance, there wasn’t a literal dude that experienced the story in real life.
Whether or not the person is objectively or even subjectively attractive doesn’t matter.
Shit isn’t binary…
The current situation doesn’t have to be the only economy we can have where people earn and spend money.
People would just have basic needs met and work for extras. When people got sick, they’d get healthcare. When theyre young, they’d get an education.
Surface level shit would look the same as it did 30 years ago, it just wouldn’t actually be rotten at the core
You don’t understand, he said not to go anywhere with anyone… Unless they’re nice
/s
Why would you let him interact with randoms?
Like. “Trolls” are the least of your worries here.
Most likely the fae were Homo floresiensis or a similarly sized cousin who had emerged from Africa before us and had a head start.
There’s story that fit the fae almost all over the planet: small, connected to nature, intelligent but incomprehensible, speaks in tongues at times, enforces “totally random” rules very strictly, even as far as making weirdly specific “laws” that could result in marriage and potential offspring that shares traits of both parents…
The few places they arent evil or treated like a Boogeyman, is the ones were similar people were slaves or “helpers”. But in all stories they were capable, self sufficient, and human like. They just weren’t tall and looked “off”.
But in all cases, eventually with the spread of humans they were pushed out, retreating away from humans.
It’s way more logical than the only thing remembered about AI has nothing related to AI by any logical stretch of the imagination
This is a good time to remind everyone that most of the problems with using SSNs for security is because at no point during design or implementation was it supposed to be used as a private thing.
It was supposed to be as common and easily accessible as your name.
It’s just when it’s started, it wasn’t listed anywhere publicly yet
So third parties just started treating it like it was a secret, and eventually it had enough momentum that the government just went with it.
We don’t need to just give people new numbers, we need a new system with both a public identifier and then some kind of secure system.
That’s a super general question…
But in general it’s just understanding what makes people happy: dopamine. And then understanding how that specific person varies from average.
Like, it’s entirely possible they keep doing all things that would make most people happy, and they’re just wired differently so it’s not working.
So people can help someone learn to be happy. But you can’t really help someone learn how to help someone else.
But before you can do that you need to determine if you’re just trying to make them feel happy for an afternoon, or you’re going to try and help them change their behaviors so they feel happier on their own long term. Those are two very different things.
For the super general advice:
To feel happier, talk with them about what they’re doing that is helping their situation. Our brains are dumb and will dump dopamine for saying “I’ll do ____” almost as much as actually doing it.
But if you want to improve their lives so they’re naturally happier it’s the opposite. You want them to talk less about what they’re doing, and instead set very easily obtainable goals so their brain gets used to giving dopamine only for accomplishing things
It’s a short term/long term thing.
Like, are you trying to stop someone from going SAD in the next 24 hours, or is your friend just constantly a little bummed out the last year?
Well, Lemmy isn’t big enough for that…
What we do have unfortunately is more than a few people who spin up 5-10 accounts and when they get offended they can easily flip thru them on an app and manipulate votes.
It’s very obvious, but it seems like admins have given up trying to stop it. If they ban the accounts the person just makes 5-10 new ones again.
So I just block them when I notice now. But even that’s still better than corpo bots that are actually organized and spreading a message, here its almost always just well intentioned idiots.
For over 20 years now…
The first investigation was early 2005
But this was an international ring, other countries had other sources as well, and have for just as long.
Look at Jimmy Saville in the UK, everyone knew but no one said anything till he died, and then some random henchmen were all that went down.
Epstein and Saville weren’t the only ones, and others are almost certainly still operating as open secrets right now.
That’s the real reason every government is slow walking this. People implicated in the Epstein files, would snitch on people from other rings. Those people would snitch on the rest of their ring. And then another start it again.
It’s basically how the aliens from Solar Opposites works, and it results the same: exponential growth.
If people on the Epstein list are prosecuted then virtually every trafficking ring and every other shady thing billionaires get up to will also likely come out. Everyone of them would sell the rest out to save themselves.
And that’s why we need to do it before they die, and they can still be pressured to snitch.
It’s been a minute since I learned electrical stuff, so I might be off on details.
Like maybe a pretty steady amperage from the cord and it’s regulated inside thru resistance or something more complicated?
But that’s the general gist of why not all parts of the equation can be static.
The advertised Wattage is also “max” it can use/produce.
Like a 850watt power supply can handle an 850 power watt draw, but if all the computer is doing is playing YouTube, it’s going to draw a lot less amps, and produce a lot less watts as a result. If it needs more watts, it “pull” more amps to make them
Steam turbines are actually self regulating because of this. The more power being used, the more amps are automatically produced. Once you spin it up it manages its own speed.
Amps are the variable part of the equation…
There are other parts of the equation, every one being constant would make every electrical component binary. Either full power or no power.
That’s why we really only see variable amperage on battery charges to force a slower charge rate for the health of the batter. On something like a radio, you could think of the volume knob as amperage control. The more power, the louder the sound comes out of the speaker.
A steady amperage current would “lock” the volume at one setting forever.
One of the proposals was submitted by a user using the moniker “crabby-rathbun.” It was quickly identified as an instance of OpenClaw, an autonomous AI assistant capable of acting independently.
Way more likely whoever is paying for the bot got actual butthurt and told the AI to go after the developer than AI making that leap themselves.
I honestly don’t know if it’s idiots who actually believe what they write in these blogs, or if they know it’s just spewing bullshit for clicks.
I keep asking them and they keep giving me the same prescription
From your post:
I(M26) currently had been prescribed a new eye glasses to replace my current one with the following
They can’t both be true.
But logic clearly isn’t working here, and it would be illogical to think it will.
So I’ll just randomly answer your question with the incredibly limited and contradictory information you have provided:
Yes, in 23 months you will go completely blind.
Did you just skip the “I had been prescribed” par
No, that’s how I know you just talked to someone who’s actually qualified to answer the question…
You are laughing about me asking for people experiences in this?
I think it’s humourous that instead of asking the people qualified to answer, you’re asking random unqualified people to give an opinion with absolutely no where near enough information for them to actually make an informed guess.
Like, do you honestly not understand any of this?
It doesn’t really matter, go ask whoever prescribed you new glasses. That’s the best answer you’ll get here anyways.
Stop using the fucking “ai” that those same billionaires are burning the planet down to use to shove misinformation down your throat for fucks sake
Start paying attention to what people who didn’t just figure this out have been saying for generations about this.
Stop using AI.
Seriously, stop using AI, it already sounds like its leading you down some crazy conspiracy rabbit hole that ends up blaming anyone except the billionaires who own the AIs and are actually the problem.
