My tipp: don't try to analyze and think to much about yourself. It's like thinking about the way you walk and suddenly walking feels strange and forced. You can't change who you are, don't even try it.

Instead try to focus on her, everyone loves a good, active listener. You are there to get to know her anyway, aren't you?

One thing you should take to your heart. Finding a good match isn't an easy task, don't go on a date expecting her to be the one. Eventually you will get disappointed or rejected, that is totally normal and nothing to worry about. It just means you and her weren't a good fit.

And don't try to act in a way thats untypical for you just to impress her. You want her to get to know the real you, not the impression of someone you think she would like.

Think about it like a casual date without any expectations is the best you can do

I think they are saying that in their revised universe there would be an absolute humanity spanning moral code.

I think what we have is something much better. A flexible morality which is taught from generation to generation and adapted as needed. An absolut moral code wouldn't work.

Funny enough, that's exactly the way it actually is. And I believe this system still works; not that we could change it anyway.

And the things that that moral code decide are bad are bad always for everyone regardless.

Still, this is how it is. It discourages immoral actions even when nobody sees them happening, because the person doing them still knows and feels bad/shame/worries.

It's fucking crazy. I see it like that: capitalism is king at maximizing profits. That's what capitalism is good at. Capitalism is a tool.

I hate it when someone expects big corporations to act morally. That's none of its business. Again, capitalism is just a tool that does one thing: maximizing profit. Just like the hammer is not at fault if you hit your thumb the corporations aren't at fault if their profit maximizing does more harm then good.

We, the people, the benficianries of why capitalism even exists, are responsible to use that tool the right way in the right situations.

And how do we do that? By creating rules and laws that restrict the ways profit can be maximized in situations where it is not at our best interest.

Now please tell me:

Whose fucking idea was it to allow corporations to hire a few dozen lobbyists that professionally influence politicians?

Why should a corporation be allowed to sponsor the election of a person? Don't you think this is already way too much influence for the cancer that capitalism can be if allowed to grow unconditionally at the wrong places?

Please stop letting immoral corporations influence the rules they need to obey for some irrelevant profit gains that fuck us all over big time in the long run! (fracking anyone?)

The market will sort itself out, or so they say. Let's be brave and create rules that help us tackle the myriad of problems we all experience right now (global warming, housing crises, health insurance, gun violance...) and watch in awe how the corporations manage to find ways to make a profit while still benefiting us as a whole.

That's how you use a tool!

Peace out

P.S.: Critique at my train of thoughts or writing style is appreciated. I'm rather stoned right now and english isn't my first language, so please be gentle.

So, let's say we create an llm that will be fed will all the copyrighted data and we design it, so that it recalls the originals when asked?! Does that count as piracy or as the kind of legal shananigans openai is doing?

Tried it for a few days. It works just like firefox minus one embedded video that crashed after 5 secs but worked in ordinary firefox.

What really surprised me was the speed. Loading youtube on firefox ~0.6 on zen ~0.1 which felt rather nice. I'm still not sure if its worth the hassel to switch.

Nice read. I find it really interesting that due to the unwillingness of many to learn something new, America is almost the only country that still uses these silly measurements.

5280 ft in a mile my ass. You don't even use 0.x numbers but fractions like 7/8th instead. And still some people believe that 1/4 pounder is bigger then a 1/3 pounder. That's crazy

being an asshole should be painful

some pills have nasty taste if they touch your gums or mouth. fill in water first, then pill, then swallow.

damn, you beat me to it. can confirm, it works like a charm

LPT: Fill your mouth with water, hold your head back and open mouth. drop the pill in. close mouth and swallow the water.

you wont even feel the pill.

by throwing the pill into the water already in your mouth instead of putting itin your mouth and then drinking the water, the pill wont have a chance to stick to your tongue or gums and release its bitter/nasty taste.

Tbh, I don't get it. How can a coffee, that can be max 100°C cause such burns? I would have never believed hot/boiling water is that dangerous, without that story.

Guess i need to donate my dead body to science after im dead. I never had a cramp in the 38 years of my life. shrugs
