The professional killer was the one who died.

It was probably more than that when I was there and I'm just misremembering the org chart, it was some time ago.

Without question. This guy is not important and nobody will protect him. Most people don't realize that banks hand out that particular title like candy. When I worked at JPMC, I was an associate (nobody important) and my manager was a vice president. There were 7 levels of management between me and the CIO.

Just to be clear. Vice President is a title one step above Associate. There are tens of thousands of vice presidents there and at most other banks. It doesn't mean he has any authority in the company.

This play is so obvious. The judge wants to be sued or reprimanded or removed to get the matter to the SCOTUS just so they can rule that gay people can't get married if any official involved in the process objects on religious grounds.

While I am certainly not going to defend Thomson, his death isn't going to make anything better and might result in things getting worse. Anyone who thinks terrifying executives will result in the target's changing for the better has probably not met a CEO of a major company before.

Noita (finally got my first win this week!)

Just a slight pedantic nitpick. Given the enormous cost of training, it is unlikely Google trains or finetunes models for individual channels.

The model was likely trained on millions of creator comments, possibly including Russell, but not necessarily.

Gemini has a large context limit, the bot loads the context with that channels comments along with the comment it is replying to. _

My cat pushes the bridge of her nose into the bridge of my nose, as long as I'm gentle I can push back a little and she starts purring.

Trump seems to lack object permanence because he thinks if you don't measure something, it isn't happening.

They will never connect their misfortune with their own actions. Evey problem is the fault of democrats, the woke mob or immigrants. Prices high? Thanks Biden. Lost my Social Security? Trump wouldn't have killed it if it weren't for all those immigrants defrauding the system. And so on. They will suffer and use their suffering to justify hurting marginalized groups.

My dad's conservative friends still insist (as of today) that Project 2025 is just liberal propaganda and it doesn't really exist. These people are immune to reality.

Vaccines are unprofitable for pharmaceutical companies. If he defunds the research and production of vaccines they will vanish even if they are not banned. There are just so many ways this idiot can and will kill us all.

I am moving to a blue state as soon as possible. Work already lined up, working on housing and arrangements for my animals. It's not safe here.

Abortion used to just be a Catholic thing, but after the Civil Rights Act was passed political opportunists sought a new issue to drive southern evangelicals and abortion was it (and later gay people, but abortion was first).

Now however, the con has been bought by those in power and joined with the more toxic forms of longtermism which posits that humans must reproduce at all costs. And here we are today.

They say that, but when Ken Paxton subpoenas them they will say they have no choice. It would be better to use an app that doesn't store this data server side at all.

It's the sound of snow squeak-crunching under my feet for me. I shudder every time it happens.

I don't see what you're getting at here. You are literally imagining that there are vast numbers of people staying home over Gaza while telling me I can't know they don't exist.

Yeah. They didn't show up. They literally don't count. That is political irrelevance.
