If Elon musk got cancer and spent 5 years fighting it before succumbing to it people would claim that it's mysterious circumstances.

They don't make you smart or cure dementia, but used sparingly and at the right moment they can make you act at your best for a few hours.

I'm sure al Jazeera would have said the US has been trying to prevent an Israeli-Palestine war before the conflict happened. We can see what happened with that.

"Queen fans" is a perfect double entendre here.

I will be returning mine (the steering wheel desk)

Lol

Wife wants coke, a brick of hash, bottle of pills, some meat and some sausage. Kid wants a sandwich and some ciggies.

Not to reiterate what other people have said here. But you can make an object 1 meter long by defining that object as 1 meter (hell, you don't have to, but you can define 1 meter as the length that light travels in a specific amount of time or something silly). Then, to create something two meters long, you can have two of those one-meter lengths. To make something π meters long, you would need infinite precision, that is not true for 1 meter or even 1/3 as you mention later in this thread.

There is no way to divide anything into exactly π length. There is an easy way to divide something into a number that can be expressed as a fraction, such as 1/3, or any fraction you care to come up with, even if it can be represented as .3 repeating.

Oh I'm fine about communism I didn't realize the founders were communist.

Yeah... The US has a sound and practical military strategy of owning a military that would win quickly and dominate completely. War is brutal???? Is China in your mind soft and coquettish in their war strategies lmao. With oriental honor lol.

I'll tiptoe around the questions of how this made you think of a US China war, and what lengths you would go to insist that there would be little reason for China to ever be the "aggressor".

I'm going to throw myself into a vat of toxic waste to gain superpowers to do those crimes anyway.

The headlines exist, but Stonehenge is what is generating the lasting discussion and will be the instance that most people in the world know about.

Sorry, I haven't been on Lemmy as long. How did Communism send you here?

This rules

I mean, you only need 39 digits of pi to calculate the circumference of a circle with a diameter the size of the universe to the width of a hydrogen atom. So no matter how detailed you get it's impossible to determine if a circles circumference is anywhere close to exactly pi.

To ops point, you could set up your thing theoretically and we can math out that it should be pi. But we could not make that object.

Idk how you could reach that conclusion. Maybe you watched 7 and haven't seen 4 in a while. It's not just your John Wick example. The movie is pretty shameless about lifting the structure of 4, it's not some subtle nuanced technicality.

This is what people don't understand about char gpt. It's not a tool for accuracy, even the company who made it says that. Then idiots come in and say "see it does math wrong! And it can't get a fact right! Only a moron would say this is the wave of the future!" And don't get me wrong. Google added it into their search engine because of the hype and low and behold, the LLM was inaccurate.

What is chat gpt food for? Creativity and abstracting. An LLM model is really good when you need a list of 10 terrible names for a dog food company to get your brain thinking. It's good at helping someone outline a story they want to write or make their email sound more professional. It's useful as an aid to help someone plan a schedule. The best use of chatgpt is to work with it, not try to get it to do a task without you. An LLM works best with piecemeal feedback and someone knowledgeable in the subject that can vet the answers it's giving.

Idk if original stories is something you can give it. The bigger death star is far from the only plot point lifted directly out of episode 4. Seriously, go back and watch ep 4 and ep 7 it's almost shot-for-shot (not really but for some of the story beats it could be).

Maybe what you're saying is that the character back stories are original which, kinda.

On authority is used to justify the fact that many communist movements of the past turned into brutal dictatorships and that "it's fine actually that mao starved half of China because you can't have a revolution without being authoritarian".

The actual paper is short and kind of stupid. What Engels was arguing in that short essay with a ridiculously outsized influence was that he was technically correct (the best kind) that anarchists are silly because any type of government someone could propose inevitably involves one person imposing their will on another like your quote says.

Really what Engels (who was a prominent communist thinker) was doing was fucking up any attempts at communist organization because now 1/3 of communists think that brutal authoritarianism is based and necessary for a revolution.

Tequila Sunset has no reason to regard your so-called "morals".
