  • As a noggie, this resonates with me. My ideology is in line with nobody being more important from the Birthe lottery than anyone else. But my pragmatic side says that there are no pressing concerns that justify such a drastic change as abolishing the royal family.

    They don't cost that much, our regent is alright, and his heir apparent is pretty alright too. Might as well keep them around as a unifying symbol and as primary diplomats.

    Plus, I have to admit that I like the concept of a lhaving an apolitical person with veto powers, in case some shithead starts something silly. I just hope said veto powers are used if needed.

    Source: Met them both when I was in the army roughly 1.3 lifetimes ago.

  • As an aside, I was surprised to see that when I wrote chatgpt a sentence written in an obscure (mine) norwegian dialect, peppered with slang and nonstandard contractions, chatgpt actually understood me very well. It seems LLMs are really good at checking possible root words and their origins to infer meaning when it's not recognizing the word.

    For example, I wrote "veitkji", which is a contractions of "veit ikkji", which is normally written "vet ikke". However, cgpt correctly interpreted it as "some scandinavian non-standard dialect for "don't know" "

  • To be fair, I think it holds true for any head of department of health (or whatever they're called) - that's a position that calls for organizational skills and not a medical doctorate. In the same way my project manager doesn't answer questions about clustered datastorage, that's what he has people like me for.
    However, leading JFKJrs department also calls for common sense and skepticism towards conspiracy theories, two qualities he severely lacks. But at least he's right in that particular statement.

  • Haven't used temu, but I have used Wish a lot. It's a lot of misrepresented low quality stuff. But if what you're after is impossible to misrepresent and quality doesn't matter it's alright.

  • 10 STR - Used to be 14 when I worked out.
    12 DEX - Used to be 16, but I've kind of stiffened up with age.
    10 CON - Average. Always has been.
    12 INT - I wouldn't be able to get paid loads for the occasional perl hack if I wasn't. However, see below.
    8 WIS - See below.
    8 CHA - See below.

    Int and wis might be the other way around. My experiences leads me to conclude that I'm reasonably smart, but still prone to stupid decisions. I'm not sure if I have wisdom that makes up for lack of int, or if lack of wisdom sabotaged my int. My will save is awful, though.

    As for charisma, I am OK looking, but I severely lack social skills. I have what you'd call charisn'tma.
