  • Anyone else watch Rick and Morty, isn’t Graham basically Jerry in couple therapy place (mean outside of the ‘presenting’ that it does)? It’s just so subservient to whoever he latches on to. Mean from bomb Iran of McCain it just may be doing his previous hang on wishes here too. But seriously this guy is a senator that has a leadership ability of a wet noodle. Aren’t senators supposed to be strong in their own convictions? Mean maybe there’s lots I haven’t heard of Mr Graham but I don’t think McCain would be happy with his swap.

    Least McCain had some principles and would now down to the orange turd, that’s the only good thing I saw from him (okay plus telling someone in an audience to be respectful of Obama, you’d never see that today)


  • Probably not what this article means but had a coworker at a previous job give a bunch of suggestions or answers at one point (want to say very small company single programmer is me, few tech support and sales people). One guy gives suggestions based on chat gpt, so I end up figuring out what is incorrect from the suggestion.

    Mean I know he’s trying to be helpful but giving suggestions that don’t work is a bit of a time waster. To be honest I’m probably middling as a programmer, I can figure out stuff but not a fantastic one (maybe I sell myself short never come across an issue I couldn’t solve but took time). So having to spend time to go over that just makes me go over stuff I really don’t need to. Quite a pain, as much as I appreciate them trying to help it’s a time waster checking out those options to see if they work.


  • Mean depends if you accept the people voting as as knowledgeable as they should be before casting a vote, or perhaps those that are not knowledgeable are so few they won’t impact the election.

    Then I look at the US and well…see their point… As much as I’m a champion of democracy obviously there are some issues to overcome when that douche becomes president in a democracy. Mostly eyeing the propohanda media but the downside of democracy is everyone should have their choice and all opinions be heard. Though good education needs to be there too otherwise you get an orange stain on world politics.





  • Yeah like if I was them I’d arm with offerings and give the middle finger when they asked for action. They are owed for being ignored and left to fend for themselves (as I state later my understanding of the situation is almost nil, but you don’t keep allies by screwing them over) by what they thought was an ally. But everything is transactional with the memory of a goldfish for this administration.

    I’ll say I don’t know the situation there well at all, maybe accepting whatever is offered with the suggested actions is in their best interest. I hope they can make a decision that doesn’t screw them over in the long run (not by their choice for sure to be clear), whatever is needed. Mean being on the wrong side of the CIA has never helped many either. Conflicts suck and it’d be nice if we could figure out how to resolve things peacefully, though I guess that idea belongs in a fairytale these days.


  • I manage a bunch of code that has to handle that sort of thing, since no customers have complained I haven’t had to check into it. Now that I’ve typed this I imagine I’ll get an issue next week cause last person who did it wasn’t so great with that stuff. Seems to work so easier to let it be till it doesn’t.

    Mostly installed locally but we do have some hosted customers on central servers, either they haven’t noticed issues or it works. I’d put money on the former than latter though.



  • When you can justify your actions due to a fuzzy theological belief it’s quite silly. I am an atheist but if there is a god, he gave us the power of reasoning and logic. Then if there is that, why is there any logic to disobey one of ten major rules for humans to live by? He put them in a rock according to the story, wasn’t like hidden words needed to be seen by lemon juice or something. They are quite pronounced in the Bible, so why can thry think don’t kill people doesn’t apply to them?

    God sent one kid, why not another if an amendment was needed in the killing but?


  • I don’t doubt that the actual people pulling the strings (I’ll say 2025 unsure if it was religious sided but think it was) are quite religious. Trump as usual is the greedy idiot they make this the fault of, mean why would the US elect someone who wasn’t really proper leader in charge? So he gets the blame, he’s at his end run out his usefulness anyways but enough moves have been made they can’t go back now so just push forward.

    The rapture dudes are all probably in ecstasy at the moment when in reality it’ll leave the world in a worse situation.

    Wait typing this thing out made me realize the fault of people is not understanding when we’re wrong least the higher ups. So many of us can’t stand saying we’re wrong. I’d rock to tell the US it’s okay to be wrong, take your licks and come play with us again. But they’re too ornary.

    Personally I hate being wrong it’s a knife to the gut. But you know what? That’s how I learn to improve. I learn not to be wrong in the future from those actions. Too bad the US is run by someone who can’t learn a lesson we teach toddlers.


  • There was an article saying it was for religious reasons, military people calling in to a hotline they have to say they were told orders were sanctioned by god or something similar.

    I’m not religious (do know a fair but of what pre high school kids tends to learn) but according to the old testament the Christian God(well all same God for participants technically unless I’m misunderstanding my theology) doesn’t need help if he wants to wipe out people.

    Imagine saying you’re on a holy war because Trump says so? That sounds wild even for some of the out there comedies.

    Please don’t say what I meant to say. If I am incorrect i am is all. I think generations have a valid similarity because of the world at the time.

    Mean didn’t say the exact generations as said by books but people who grow up in a similar political and economic environment probably are impacted by that situation and that sort of happens, Which is more what I meant.

    Generations do have voting habits though, someone from gen Z is not voting for the same reason as the boomers. When people from the younger generation make choices that will hurt their future it should be realized and understood so hopefully later elections (heh for the current system) they can understand why some people aren’t in their best interest and things adjusted.

    Mean for voters that want the current situation then they’re assholes cause they voted for someone with the worst outcome of the planet and society in mind.


  • I concur, though my job has me integrating some open ai into our software. Not much I can do besides so what they like, bit of transcription and summary.

    Had a coworker give me replies from gpt for an issue . I could tell easily because I had worked with similar data for years (parsing PBX data for calls) and knew the reply had errors. Like I know I can have issues parsing our data sometimes but it was insulting he gave an AI reply. So I nicely pointed out all the errors in the reply saying I assumed it was from ai. Mean did it nicely he was trying to help (and is a really nice dude) but still I know how to google and sift as well as ai probably does. And if I get the answer I remember it due due to the work I did.






  • And being next door when Trump has commented on the 51st state, it may not be the best time to condem something with all the military geared up, they could mostly squash us as a side quest. Least that’s what I hope. Mean I think the PM could have been less accepting of the situation in his message but I’m sure there’s a fine line. I’m also not much into international relations so sort of trying to be optimistic considering our other choice of leader (okay technically more but it’s two parties realistically though the NDP has been needed for coalition governments).
