SOME species are doing well. But we should remember we’re in a pretty massive extinction event, and these are outliers.

Right. Throughout human history, if someone was cast out of a community, they didn’t survive. We’ve been trained through evolution to go along with the tribe because it’s unsafe to question anything and get cast out.

Who has?

Who has this many friends?

Toby believed that he sent the wrong person to jail. So according to him, that wasn’t the real strangler that got caught.

Probably not a lot since Frankenstein is in the public domain.

And don’t get me started on Empire Strikes Back and Yoda

That’s great, but the fact it’s local and private means it can consume my personal data and be a more personal LLM. This just doesn’t hit that mark.

Good point, thanks for calling that out.

Apple Maps was bad, yes. But they had their hand forced. Google started charging for their API (enough to cripple their app), and they had very little time to create one of their own.

That’s not happening here. No one is forcing their hand. If they didn’t release an updated Siri this year, nothing would happen.

Feminists aren’t saying that men are trash. They’re saying women should be equal. Some men hear that and feel attacked, thinking that feminists are calling them trash.

This meme isn’t funny, it just reveals what you think feminist arguments are about. You think they’re about you.

Yes. Android already does all these things. But I think the things I’m excited most about are not on this list at all.

1. A private local LLM. With the on-device context of my notes, messages, calendar, etc, I’m rather excited to have a more personal LLM than ChatGPT.

2. Personal messaging via satellite. I love that I can stay in touch with people outside of a cell network.

So your suggestion is that in order to keep the business afloat, Uber should be allowed to pay their workers less than minimum wage? That doesn’t sound like a reasonable business, and certainly not one I’m willing to support in my province.

This argument also falls flat because other places have done this with no increase in cost. If you look outside of the app job industry, the argument is often made that if the US raises minimum wage, places like McDonalds will get more expensive. But in Europe and elsewhere the minimum wage is way higher than the US, and their prices are not.

Allowing Uber to underpay their workers means we have to subsidize the company by providing welfare for workers who don’t earn enough. That’s coming out of our tax dollars. I’m not personally in favour of subsidizing Uber if their business can only survive by undercutting the people building it.

How was this not already banned? It’s like hearing that they just banned punching bus drivers. Congrats and all, but how was that not already a law?

Sometimes you can get therapy covered through health insurance. It’s worth checking, because therapy can be really helpful, even just for having someone to share stresses with. I hope you’re able to find someone!

Agreed. You could argue that Reddit is actually overcrowded.

Correction: he became not-a-billionaire. I’d still trade my bank account with his any day.

Even on the West Coast, I’d love if it aired an hour earlier. If I were on the East Coast, I would probably just move.

To answer your last question: If you think of the Prequel Jedi like the English royals of the last few hundred years, think of the High Republic Jedi as King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table. The Jedi at this time are at their peak. They are doing the most good, and in the eyes of the people, they are the best they ever were.

As for the government, the Republic is expanding and trying to incorporate more of the outer rim territories. There aren’t major corporations sitting on the senate, and the government is also at its peak.

Also, I totally thought the prisoner was Glenn Howerton until the parasite was removed.

Because the High Republic is awesome and worth exploring. That’s why.
