The glass is floating in the air. The excel character says something without a speaking bubble. Looks kinda souless.

Probably just AI slop.

I fed it into ChatGPT, highlighted the errors, and told it what I wanted to be different.

New life hack unlocked.

Anyone use when backing out of the driveway or parking spot?

Chaitin's constant also known as Chaitin’s Ω is transcendental, uncomputable and algorithmically random. Also normal in every base. I don't know how or what any of it means, but it's a provable, normal number.

Sorry for the AI slop. I am not an artist and just thought this was kind of funny. I like that Ω is hidden in their hairstyle.

Chaitin’s Ω: Not just transcendental but uncomputable and algorithmically random. Also normal in every base.

Fuck you joyce

You gave notice on April 3rd. I count 59 days. They're being dicks, but it's not 60.

How much time does your contract say is required for giving notice?

I think this more of those "It depends" situations. Does the caffeinated drink have sugar? How many crackers? Which biological processes are you using to get a benefit from?

If there's no sugar in coffee, you're body stays in a fasting state*. If you eat three crackers, you might not cause the body to release insulin. But if you're looking to get the benefits from ketosis, then those crackers will be a problem.

So, it depends. But zero is the safest answer.

The article says it may interrupt autophagy

Looks like kinbaku. (NSFW Wikipedia link)

I get that this is from A Clockwork Orange, but damn if my brain isn't wondering "What Flight of the Concords episode was this from?

I'm pretty sure there's only a White Lotus in Thailand.

Brilliant, but probably NSFW:

Did he ask for your opinion?

As a kid, I obviously thought it was Brain.

I think it was all Pinky just doing it for a laugh with his insane friend.

Dem to consistently build an authentic movement

The whole point of Dems for the last forty years is they don't know what authenticity is. They think it's a marketing term and not a human condition.

Shawn Fain is the president of the United Auto Workers union. He successfully negotiated higher wages and better benefits for his member in 2023 after calling for and receiving authorization for a strike. He continues his efforts to unionize more shops and floated the idea that other unions have their contract expire in 2028 when the UAW contract expires.

He was on Meet the Nation this past week and when asked "Let's start very simply on the question of tariffs on autos and auto parts. Fundamentally, and quite simply, why do you believe those are helpful for your membership?" This is what he said:

[A]ll you have to do is look at the history of the United States, especially in auto manufacturing in the last 30 years, with the inception of NAFTA and unfair trade laws. We've seen over 90,000 manufacturing facilities leave the United States. We've seen- in the Big Three alone, in the last 20 plus years, 65 plants have closed. You know- And so look, tariffs aren't the total solution. Tariffs are a tool in the toolbox to get these companies to do the right thing, and- and the intent behind it is to bring jobs back here. And, you know, invest in the American workers. The American working class people have been left behind for decades, and they're sick of it. You know, it's a massive struggle. People are struggling just to get- to survive right now, to get by. And so, you know- you know- you know, there's two parts to the tariffs though. I mean, the tariffs are a motivator. We have to fix the broken trade laws. And the other thing to me is, you know, these can't just be just, you know, as with the Biden administration, when they did the stuff for battery work and EV work, we had to come in and say, no, these can't just be union jobs or- or jobs. They got to be good paying union jobs that set standards. So the big part of this that gets left out a lot of times is, if they're going to bring jobs back here, you know, they need to be life sustaining jobs where people can make a good wage, a living wage, have adequate health care and have a retirement security and not have to work seven days a week or multiple jobs, just a scrape to get by, paycheck to paycheck.

He goes on to agree with "Peter Navarro, a top adviser to the president on trade, says currently, automobile manufacturing plants are at about 60% capacity. He argues that there's lots of untapped capacity, meaning jobs could be created relatively easy, and you didn't have to need- you wouldn't need to spend two or three or maybe five years building new factories."

So I'm glad to hear that the UAW and their membership may be well positioned, but the increase in prices will result in inflation and that's bad for all people including his members. Guess what we don't buy when we aren't sure how much groceries or everyday items will be ... Cars? Yep. Cars.

My reluctance isn't that this isn't doable, but the amount of effort it would take to inspect every external surface for small gaps. Cracks, for reasons of personal head cannon, seem much easier to identify. Both the attic and crawl space require a fair amount of persistence in tight, dark spaces with not the best of footing and air quality conditions that are tolerable in limit situations without mitigating equipment.

The roof is also another tricky spot. Definitely worth it for critter sized openings, but I'm not sure I can pull it off for bug sized.

With that said, I think most people will get a lot of bang for the time if they inspect doors, windows and search for cracks on the sidewalk along the foundation.

Not saying it's not a thing... More that everyone needs that to be in this shit post
