Ahh, so he went to the Henry Kissinger School of Becoming the Very Thing that Damged You Initially.

There is a whole suite of special Hells for that type.

This seems like a good crowd to workshop a drag name. Everyone seems to enjoy speculating what the JD in JD Vance stands for. So here is my new drag name:

Jizzedina Davenport.

Thoughts?

On days when a spring cleaning or packing and organizing frenzy is needed, the Katamari Damacy sound track is perfect. Nice continuity of themes, but varying tempos and energy help make a sustainable work session.

Large construction equipment has less security usually than a mid-priced sedan. A complete setup for welding iron and steel can be had for under $250USD. Many older farms have scrap metal laying around.

We need to revive the entrepreneurial spirit in order to make these dreams come true.

Stop growing alfalfa in the goddamn desert, maybe? Stacys and Chads letting the tap run while they brush each other’s teeth is not the problem here.

Thank Glob. Let me be an ‘individual contributor’ while those who don’t know better yet run interference with corporate.

Vindictive man child-rapist running US.

You will find some lemmings that hate ‘AI’ for correct and nuanced reasons. Not in a meme community post probably since I myself take licence to just be a snarky jerk in these type of communities. I come here to make fun of tech bros and such. They definitely deserve it.

There are a lot of highly skilled people around and you can find lots of opportunities for really interesting discussions about the proper uses of ‘AI’. Unlike blockchain which has turned out to have very niche applications beyond the dubious utility of crypto, these things definitely have real power to accelerate progress in many directions.

But come on, can’t we just rag on the hugely visible dipshittery that is accompanying this obvious ‘tuplip mania’?

I really need supervision.

No, really, I am a danger to myself and others. Please keep an eye on me

About what time should I come over?

The People v Larry Flynt sets a precedent for smut peddlers taking a necessary moral stance, I guess

See my comment to OP for a recentish publication that shows the same thing all studies previously have shown. You are quite correct.

No one that has looked at this in a serious way agrees with you.

From the abstract:

“These results suggest that the movements involved in handwriting allow a greater memorization of new words. The advantage of handwriting over typing might also be caused by a more positive mood during learning. Finally, our results show that handwriting with a digital pen and tablet can increase the ability to learn compared with keyboard typing once the individuals are accustomed to it.”

Handwriting helps retention better than typing.

They really just seem to want to avoid challenging conversations, don’t they?

True true.

Imagine further if Henry Wallace had not been replaced as FDR’s VP by Truman just a few months before FDR died. We would have had a real scientist (HW was a corn geneticist who founded the first hybrid corn seed company) at the helm.

The post-world war 2 world would have developed very differently.

(sigh)

Wow, thanks for that. I struggled for decades and also had a difficult time after a breakthrough. I describe it as being released from a long stint in prison, but there is no one to pick you up at the gate. There’s still a long walk ahead of you.

Yeah things are much better now, but my life path is still altered forever, there’s no going back.

True, but such a shame.

Nah, didn’t miss it. We are just talking past each other as happens online, nbd. $1.7k is surely not enough to live on. Yet, it can make a huge difference to a low income person.

I do not know your circumstances, poverty is a unique experience that people who grew up with even just a tiny bit more security seem to not truly understand. We have sayings like ‘grinding poverty’ for a reason. IYKYK.

If you insist. My ass is very shapely as a result of dedication to that cause and I draw attention to it whenever possible.

In this essay, I will ….

Yeah, I mean the Clintons were balls-deep in the origin of Third Way. Center-left, my shapley ass. They make Goldwater Republicans look progressive.
