As many angels can dance on the head of a pin

What is with angry men and cocaine? It's like a chicken and egg problem.

No. Everything is not an opinion. There is the real universe.

I don't know if it is unethical. They want a narrative and you sold it to them. Is making a superhero movie unethical? Is roleplay in the bedroom unethical? You are taking money away from fascists which is always a good thing.

Bohemia area by the mini airport? Did some factory work in that part of LI. Yes it can very much feel like you are working in a sauna there.

Pretty much me. I am using it everywhere but usually not interested in mentioning it to some internet trolls.

You can check my profile if you want, or not. 7 months ago I baked my first loaf of bread. I got the recipe from chatgpt. Over 7 months I have been going over with it on recipes and techniques, and as of this month I now have a part time gig job making artisan breads for a restaurant.

There is no way I could have progressed this fast without that tool. Keep in mind I have a family and a career in engineering, not exactly an abundance of time to take classes.

I mentioned this once on lemmy and some boomer shit starting screaming how learning how to bake with the help of an AI didn't count and I need to buy baking books.

Edit: spelling

but are good at mimicry.

I know engineers who make over double what I make solely because of that skill.

Bans Tik Tok and puts up the ten commandments.

Pretty clear what the goal is here.

Boeing style.

No more moon shots, contract out everything, slash pensions, fight a war against your union, move corporate away from production, buy your own stock.

Can't. Zoning board says it's not in neighborhood character.

I had jury duty once and the air conditioning was acting up. Judge announced we would all be moving to a different room as a result, which we did.

Guess it isn't a luxury when it's a judge's place of work.

Wait...there is money in manufacturing false data to sell to these fascists?

Cough...Iraq war...cough

What’s the hell wrong with American voters?

Rage at a system that doesn't work and dreaming of being a person who doesn't have to apologize for anything. There is a reason why crime movies, games, and TV shows are so popular. It isn't that most people want to be going around murdering all day, it is they want to be able to.

incapable of pronouncing correctly

Lonely bookish kids, grown men who do not listen to anyone else, ESL adults who had to pick up the language without help. Take a guess which one of the three he is.

Sure. It's all an opinion. That makes sense. Thank you for explaining how it isn't based on logic, data, or really any methodology at all. Just people arguing chocolate or vanilla or strawberry ice cream.

Including buying karma

Aligns with their religion:

https://suttafriends.org/sutta/sn11-16/

The boss of all the gods in heaven is lectured by the Buddha who states that giving stuff to his monks results in more merit than any god.

To be clear this was kinda a big deal for those polytheists. Giving a sacrifice to a god was a transactional act. I burn this incense or leave this bowl of food out for you, you make sure my kid doesn't die from this illness. When Buddhist pushed people to instead view the Sangha as the place for donations they weren't simply asking people to switch which shaman they were going to, they were asking them to shoulder on another one.

Tibetan Buddhism is the Catholic Church of Buddhism, far off the track, festooned with rituals and beliefs, all the same failures that accompany a religion as opposed to a practice.

I don't often see people gatekeeping a religion as open-ended as Buddhism but here we are.

This is never not going to be weird to me.

Umm so they did have a major one and didn't tell anyone.

A bit of a challenge
