I wish it was a bit cheaper too much for a really fun toy for me though

I initially thought Claude was a reference to clod from warbreaker and your spelling made me think of it again, for those that read warbreaker they might understand his description is darn close to what Claude is, but alas I believe I was deftly wrong

Is there a handy list of all of this that users contribute to?

Not defending any malicious behavior but is it at all possible Amazon is more honest in their reporting compared to others who may lose income by reporting certain incidents?

I started the cosmere this year and have officially consumed every available book in the cosmere, really enjoyable brain junk food! He has written so much and I love the different systems and characters development. Highly recommend his works! I daydream in the various parts of cosmere weekly and am excited for more books to come out.

This is ridiculous but I’d like to lower my electric bill, this is not practical but I was just “surfing the web” and found this. I wish something like this was practical

LLMs have had an irreversible effect on everything up to and including how humans talk to each other face to face without LLMs in between as I’ve discussed this very topic.

As an example we things like this likened to issues with nuclear tests https://lowbackgroundsteel.ai/

Know where I can read about that?

Aside from daily login rewards, loot boxes, gamifying gambling behaviors and FOMO designed micro purchases? Roblox is bad and many times if your nearby is absolutely not appropriate for kids and I’m quite liberal on what’s appropriate beyond normalizing emotional damage.

Not all games are created equal, I loved Zelda tears of the kingdom and the sounds and rewarding game were in my opinion addictive however they are not in the same league as roblox

The best part is when you get a cohort of a few families to go camping and teenage daughter forced dad to drive 45 minutes each way for cell service to avoid breaking the daily login chain.

I don’t think people appreciate how these mechanisms impact society as a whole

Can you share what equipment was used to capture those images?

I never buy beyond/impossible at restaurants because of this.

I often have some at home and instead of having two red meat burgers have one and one of these, occasionally when they go on sale at Costco I’ll buy a bunch.

I am not vegan or vegetarian but do seek ways to reduce my red meat intake which years ago was grilling ribeyes 4-5 nights a week. I was unreasonably unhealthy and having alternate options helped balance my health out over the long run. I like both beyond burgers and impossible. I wish they were cheaper than hamburger meat, when I compare to buying hamburger meat in bulk it’s still more expensive at this point

The intro strongly reminded me of https://existentialcomics.com/comic/604

Really enjoyed this keep writing!

Local stores bullshit too, I was at a well known American ‘sporting goods’ store and got an exercise ball of 75cm size (it states on box), it is fully pumped and smaller than a 55cm ball that I have. When purchasing online I’ve had better luck

Caveat emptor

I still think about my lost address that I obtained when Gmail was invite only. My family still occasionally CCs it and it drives me nuts, I would pay money to at least have it shutdown so they don’t think I received an email. I had email forwarding to another address when stolen and immediately after it was stolen it had the weirdest messages, I tried multiple ways reaching out to google and it still bugs me I was unsuccessful. I’d love the their of my account to at least have it shutdown

“Modern” risk boards have Australia with 3 borders to defend including the normal and addingcross-map Argentina to New Zealand and Japan to Philippines (I believe this map comes from a risk computer game)

I was hoping that was case but the problem is the message id of the email appears as if google generated it from mx.google.com

Perhaps I don’t know enough here? This would not be the first time a google account was stolen and I’d like to protect what I have, despite having repeatedly tried and having facility members with threads and emails as proof google offered zero help to resolve or even close the account from the their so senders would at least be notified I didn’t get it
