Where have you visited so far? Usually I'd think you've encountered something other than the ship within a few hours, and most of the things you can encounter should give you ideas as to what else to explore. Have you literally only floated around in the ship, or is that a way of saying that the things you've found aren't interesting to you?

Meanwhile in English we just borrow things from other languages and forget what they mean. For example, porpoise, from old French porpois, from Latin porcus marinus, meaning... ah, yes: sea pig.

because they do not wish to be clobbered

It's a fictional diary entry, from The Prestige. The next entry is 2 months later, when he's fallen in love with a different woman.

You mean stashed in your mental cheek pouches.

Running for office and voting are unrelated things with separate criteria. You can be president if you are a natural born citizen over 35 who has lived in the US for at least 14 years.

You might have been thinking that losing voting rights entails losing citizenship, but that is not the case.

But Larry, you don't have any hair. Why do you need a hairbrus--auuugh bears why are there bears

I was curious as to what this implies, so I did some quick/superficial googling. The page in the OP has a Yes next to Intent To Use - this appears to mean they have a good faith intention to make commercial use of the trademark within the next 6 months. If for whatever reason they could not make use of it within that time, they can file extension requests indicating good cause for being unable to do so, for six months at a time, up to 5 times. So, OpenAI ostensibly intends to make available a commercial product named GPT5 within the next 6 months (or up to 36 if there are unforeseen delays). So, probably before mid-january.

I welcome corrections from people with actual knowledge, I just did some quick googling because I was curious and thought I might as well share what I found.

There are hacky ways to do it through a frontend that can only block communities. Any time a post appears from that instance, automatically block the community and hide the post. I don't know if jerboa would prefer to wait until a more elegant solution is possible and/or leave it to the user though.

I think xeelee's joke might have been that you have no idea what the inside of a car's engine looks like, and are therefore a cartoonist
