Gandalf did not celebrate Saruman’s death. He still proceeded to depose him, but not in a spirit of celebration.

All of them?

If it’s a person that I know then it wouldn’t affect my view of them at all, because I already know them.

It’s daytime. Or nighttime. Or evening or morning. Or you don’t know what time of day it is but you’re conscious. Any of these situations indicates aging is happening.

I like big BUTs and I cannot lie

Neanderthals didn’t leave us; they merged with us. Neanderthal DNA is well represented in our current population.

No.

The biological definition of a species is “a group of organisms that can interbreed and produce fertile offspring” (in other words, the offspring need to also be able to reproduce; there are instances, such as mules, where two species reproduce but the offspring cannot themselves reproduce)

It was one employee at one location. It wasn’t McDonalds that did this. The logo does not represent the element that turned Luigi in. It was a person who did that, who happens to work at a McDonalds.

Money mumbles. Don’t buy the game, and also actively notify the company of your decision and why. Twitter, feedback form, steam review, whatever channel lets you get that message across.

Do they sell xbox controllers?

I think the answer here is to buy that somewhere other than WalMart. Are there any stores nearby that didn’t increase their price on the controller?

No more leggings!

Heuristics are hackable. If your heuristic is “once is happenstance” then your enemy can just conduct their operations once and you’ll never recognize it.z

It’s actually an argument about the complexity of the systematic problems with society.

Basically, if the systematic problems of society are more complex than the mess in your room. Therefore if you don’t have the energy, precision, care, and attention to clean your room, whatever model of society you’re using to judge it is woefully inadequate to actually describe or understand the problem and you need to recognize you’re about to fuck up in a major way by shadow boxing against the ultra-simplified version of the problem you keep in your head.

It’s kind of like saying “Oh you want to eat a bowling ball? Here eat this golf ball first. Don’t want to eat the golf ball? Too big to swallow? Great, now rethink your plan of eating that bowling ball, which is far bigger than the golf ball.”

I guess you’ve never actually listened to him speak, eh?

whoa

Right, because anger and frustration aren’t predictors of murderous behavior at all.

Why would someone who had just undertaken a massive act of courage and integrity commit suicide?

Altman is just obviously evil to me. I don’t know how others can’t see it in his eyes.

Why would Elon Musk kill a whistle blower against one of his enemies?

Musk hates the direction OpenAI is going.
