@ChrisAgne @SECRET_ASIAN_MAN *tilts head*. have fun at the game!! #stlcards

@haggardmom75 The Google AI that told people to eat rocks if they needed more minerals in their diet, or to use glue to get cheese to stay on pizza better also come to mind

@Valkaru @LiberalLibrarian 😬

We have a pair of ...let's call them young adults...who have pocket rockets, and who will zoom up and down the street @40 mph at all hours (yes, 3 AM) blowing thru the stop sign, driving on the sidewalk, weaving in between cars, etc.

You don't know how much I'd love to string up a clothesline. ISTG.

Oh! I forgot to mention that all of these 'titles' are also on Audible. 100% sure that they're all computer-generated narrations.

@haggardmom75 Was that the one about the mushrooms that turned out to be toxic? I think I was that.

I went looking for a book on Amazon yesterday and came across an author who had 'published' almost 3600 titles.

Apparently he (and oh yeah, ChatGPT) is an expert in EVERYTHING. And you can read all about it for $2.99 a book! Everything from beekeeping to Jedi energy weapons!

Here's a great title:

"ChatGPT for Everyday Jobs: A Complete Reference Guide for Using ChatGPT in 100 Different Occupations"

eyup.

This is why we are going to fail as a semi-intelligent species.

@awnaves Not the same, but check out Anna's Archive too.

There have been a couple of papers that I wanted to read and I just feel like I don't want to bother the author (ResearchGate et al access).

Plus, if you are wanting the paper and stuff because someone is posting a series on YT or wherever and they reference the papers, a LOT of times that person will put a link up for that paper. i'm looking at Nick Zentner for example (and if you like geology, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND checking him out!)

@Valkaru @LiberalLibrarian if I did that I'd probably get shot at.

@Valkaru @LiberalLibrarian I've seen them referred to as "Idaho stops" as well.

PS: The stop sign that's on the corner where I live apparently is only a stop in the daylight. At night, people will fly thru it at 40, in a residential subdivision. Whee.

@Coctaanatis @LiberalLibrarian you mean, like the fact that on suburban interstates, the new 'speed limit' is 80? And if you are not going at least 75 you'll get run over?

Yeah. Posted limit is 60.

@Mathias yeah, it's called a 'patience bar'. usually doesn't have much to do with time remaining.

@LiberalLibrarian He is sooooo screwed

@th3j35t3r Oh my goodness

@EnochianEntropy lol. still sounds like a plan!!

@EnochianEntropy I do that - brown sugar-coated bacon around little smokies, baked and then drizzled with a little maple syrup. Meat candy.

last reboot: 25%. Over 4 years. That's 6.25% a year.

I'm crossing my fingers that I get a 1.5% raise this year, and I'm pretty sure that's not going to happen because of the cost of doing business in this country.

@LiberalLibrarian It's fun watching them eat each other, isn't it??
