Venus doesn't look like a ball in the sky like that. It looks like a bright star.

The moon is what might look like something relatively balloon sized, but Venus? Nope.

Gtfo with this disinfo

I remember once reading that having one beer and then changing to water would be a good rehydration strategy.

And I definitely believe it. Feels like that anyway. But.

Oh man I'd like a cold beer.

Oh, that's kinda useful to know. Thanks.

Yesterday I honestly had the bot flip and flop on an answer while deeply apologising and everytime saying "now you can actually trust, I checked and rechecked and now it's definitely correct".

Like a simple question with two choices.

It didn't know the answer so then it prompted to choose from two answers. One which confidently said one thing and one which confidently said the other. I called it out on making me choose the answer to a question I asked. Then it decided itself. I then questioned it. It changed it mind. And around and around we went for like 20 minutes, everytime it swearing this time it isn't hallucinating.

They suck so bad for most things, but they're useful for some very niche things, but even for those, they still sort of suck at those as well a not non-significant. They're definitely shouldn't be used for official shit, but they very much are.

It doesn't have a corresponding wavelength in the spectrum of visible light, but as we perceive it to be there and have a name for it, it doesn't really matter that there's no specific wavelength it corresponds to.

By that metric abstract things likely love, justice, duty, honour, could be argued to not be real either. Can't touch them or there's no corresponding physical thing in the world to measure them.

without the proper extraction equipment

All you need is a a proper filter and you can shift the kief out and press it. Can get one from most fabric stores, just right micron size. Now you've got traditional hash.

That's not as effective but arguably simpler equipment than this next one. Pick up acetone and a glass/metal container and bowl (oh and a metal sieve if you've not got one, but coffee filters will do as well) from a hardware store. Crush the bud, soak it in acetone, pour the acetone into the bowl and then let it evaporate. That's oil. With a little tuning, you can make extremely high quality extracts this way.

So idk, you're probably thinking of some elaborate CO2 extraction systems as "proper extraction equipment" but none of that jazz is necessary for high quality extracts. We've been making them for literally a few thousand years by hand, lol. Although making charas is out of the question pretty much with dry weed.

Doesn't even look that great from the parts you can see and the fact it's definitely been in those packs for a long time, it's probably throat scratching med-tier over-dry weed. Meh.

fresh flower doesn't keep very long

Properly dried and then shielded from light, heat and moisture, sure it will.

and if they use EM Dashes? 100% it's AI.

Sorry to disappoint you, but I regularly use em dashes. (It's ALT+0151 on PC.)

Remember that the models do model on the writings of actual people. They're just regurgitating it really badly.

I think an artist saying shit on stage at Glastonbury, even "death, death to the IDF", is pretty mild in comparison to actually murdering babies.

That being said I'd be all for non-killing rhetoric, but I'll still join in on any class war and poke some fascist/capitalist piggies with sharp knives. (Like if anti-killing rhetoric which includes killing some killers is more anti-killing than rhetoric with no implied killing, then yeah, I'll pick the former.)

 

That's it. I'm looking for a specific bit, can't seem to find it. About a standup being impressed by a crusty old junkie tasting the sub-par quality of the drugs through injecting them?

It's not like the core of the bit, it's just on the sides iirc. It's someone like Tom Segura, John Mulaney, Jim Jefferies, uh... idk. I went through Ali Siddiq, Ari Shaffir, and a bunch of others. Tried using LLM's to help me search as well. Just can't seem to narrow it down, fucking brain full of weed can't remember anything clearly. Maybe Sam Morrill?

But I'm pretty sure there's a bit where a standup talks about some veteran drug user injecting either heroin/cocaine, probably cocaine iirc, and then sort of getting a bad taste in their mouth, and the comedian expressing how impressed they were that the user could taste the adulterants through the needle.

I hear the sarcastic tone, but ugh, can't recall who.

I'm just posting this on the off-chance someone just knows the bit and can tell me.

 

That's kinda it.

Four years of photos, videos, notes and thoughts, recordings of my now passed dad and grandma, etc.

Last photos of my father, actually. Fuck.

Probably accidentally dropped it in the bin when I used it as a webcam one time when I was as drunk as a skunk. Then had no use for it between that and taking the thrash out. And that was a few weeks ago, so even dumpster diving wouldn't help now.

Hell, that guy looking for his bitcoin has waster years and millions.

I guess I can manage with photos other people have, I guess. I don't really have people to look at the photos with, so guess it shouldn't matter.

I'd be grateful if you could make me care less about my massive — but boring — fuckup.

Edit I'm trying to list things I probably won't miss. My notes are mostly incoherent brain farts I have over and over. And recordings of officials won't matter as no-one cares and they're too late for justice. Photos and videos, really. But I have no-one to browse them with so whatever.

I'll definitely pay more attention to backing up

 

Rick & Morty may not translate directly into live action well, but here's a show to scratch some of that itch perhaps; "Counterpart".

There's no comedy, but like the edginess and inner conflict Rick has. That is sort of what I get from this, a little.

Pretty good imdb rating. I'm 8 episodes in, I like it. JK Simmons could definitely pull off a Rick. One of the more serious ones at least.

Core of... THC?

Anyway, seemed magical enough. Now it's kind of lost it's magic though. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

 

Shran uses a set from a Finnish designer, called "Ultima Thule". It's also featured as a world on the show, iirc. (I'm midway through rewatch, but Ultima Thule is definitely a world in the ST universe.)

The name come from ancient times, meaning roughly "Ultimate North", and referring to various places that no-one can really agree on.

Anyways, the other glass is also Finnish, and also used in ST: Enterprise. Whenever Archer has dinner in his quarters or they're having cake at Malcolm's bday, therr these glasses are: https://star-trek.design/glassware/tapio-goblets-by-tapio-wirkkala-for-iittala

(I wonder if this is related to my alcoholism flaring up anytime the episodes with the glasses come up.)

 

I made a joke about how Russia was a bit behind in video game tech in the 90's and got banned, lol.

 

I'm listening to Stromae, Pomme - Ma Meilleure Ennemie (from Arcane Season 2) Lyrics w/ translation.

And one line is "Mais comme dit le diction: Plutôt qu'être seul mieux vaut être mal accompagne."

French (sorry for butchering some of the letters, I've a Nordic layout), roughly for "But as the saying goes: Better than alone, is to be in bad company."

Reading that, I remembered a Spanish line from last weeks episode of "The Day of the Jackal": "Mejor solo que mal acompañado."

"It's better to be alone than in bad company."

A difference in views between the French and the Spanish, eh? Anyone here who's got some view on it? I'd be interested to hear a view from someone who intimately understands both cultures.

 

Also, from the lyrics: "Team by team, reporters baffled trump"

 

I had more screen space for reading with my Nokia 3310.
