Remember when Failin' Palin was bleating about "death panels"?

Death panel?

Oh, you mean insurance company

I ask AI shitbots technical questions and get wrong answers daily. I said this in another comment, but I regularly have to ask it if what it gave me was actually real.

Like, asking copilot about Powershell commands and modules that are by no means obscure will cause it to hallucinate flags that don't exist based on the prompt. I give it plenty of context on what I'm using and trying to do, and it makes up shit based on what it thinks I want to hear.

I didn't get much trying to read the wiki, but I did find a link to that other site 🤮 that goes into it from an entomology perspective, and I loved the response to the top comment

So by looking at that phylogenetic tree, I've come to understand that butterflies are just a subgroup of moths that we arbitrarily call butterflies?

Not being a biology nerd makes all that rather confusing lol, so the layman's summary-as-a-question really helped me

We don't have any freedom with work unless we have the freedom not to work.

What are you talking about? We have the freedom to not work and die cold and hungry in the streets just like the founding fathers intended!

Capitalism is slavery with extra steps.

I only really use AI shit on my work computer (because hooray I have a Copilot license), and its only marginally better than doing searches myself. Its nice when it works because it lets me save time researching things, but I CONSTANTLY have to ask "are you sure that's real?" because it just fucking makes up random command flags based on the prompt.

And its only marginally better because fucking search engines have their head so far up their ass they can see their tonsils. Godsdammit I want working search engines back.

Same story with LastPass and Bitwarden. Sometimes the best tool changes, mom.

I'm still having this conversation with my wife occasionally...

It's starting at a reasonable point for the data shown, I'm not sure what your point is. Do you think this graph would be more readable if you had 80% of the vertical axis as wasted space so the graph could show nothing from 0 to 95?

That assumes there's an increase in the prevalence of autism vs an increase in the awareness of the prevalence of autism. I.E. did it actually increase or does it just look that way because we have better diagnostic criteria and no longer shove people into institutions to hide them from the world (as much).

Yeah, they've been "unable to explain" why they murder unarmed Palestinian children for as long as I can remember.

From another user's CDC link:

U.S. Cases in 2024

Total cases.
285.
Age.
Under 5 years: 120 (42%).
5-19 years: 88 (31%).
20+ years: 77 (27%).
Vaccination Status.
Unvaccinated or Unknown: 89%.
One MMR dose: 7%.
Two MMR doses: 4%.

So there were 285 TOTAL cases last year, so we're currently at about 77% of the cases last year. Now, given that we're only about 18% of the way through the year, and assuming an even spread of cases through the year, they would have only had about 51 cases, so something like 435% as many cases.

my anecdotal experience was/is that many medical staff themselves succumbed to vaccine conspiracies, and would freely admit and bitch about masking and vaccines when off the job.

Not even just off the job. I worked at a surgery center during the first few years of COVID, and I still distinctly remember at least one surgeon walking around the clinical areas with a mask that read "this mask does nothing". And I'm pretty sure he was seeing patients wearing that too.

I am still baffled by that, because this fucking window licker had to have taken microbiology, and literally wore a mask every goddamned times they did the thing they trained for.

This is America

Ok, so your complaint is the door orientation, not the position. I disagree with the idea that it doesn't necessarily work, given how many other instances of the meme get a bit out there and are intentionally setup to be recognizable yet inscrutable. But I can see why it wouldn't work for people.

It's not the same position tho. If you look at the two images side by side, you can see the right door is noticeably lower than the left door in the final panel, but even in the previous panel:

yet the same position of the right door in frame 4 apparently indicates a person lying down.

Check again friend, the back right door is open in panel 4, njt the same front right door.

It's hard to tell the difference, but it is different. Took me way too long to get the joke too cuz of that

It's not like the Java server is slow tho, it only becomes a problem when mods are added

Lol, the java server is dogshit slow, it just doesn't show until you have a big enough map if you're not running mods. I played on a semi-public server and was a mod back in the day, and wed regularly have to do world resets because it started slowing down when people got far enough away from the spawn. Hell, even with mods it doesn't start to slow down immediately, it waits until you've done a lot in your world before it starts chugging like dad after work.

This guy is insane.

Pretty sure he's got "a" personality disorder that makes him crave being in the spotlight, and the dude isn't smart or socially aware enough to understand just how little the dude knows. Leading him to doing more and more stupid shit to stay in the spotlight and scrambling to unfuck himself after the fact. On some level, it would be funny how he's been tripping over his dick and failing upward his whole life. Ya know, if he weren't currently destroying the country and all that.

It’s like that but it also burns like a motherfucker.

I used to drink everclear straight (shooting 95% alcohol in college was a decision, but made for some funny stories), any clue how it compares?

As they should be. Only 1/3 of us tried to stop putting the biggest fucking clown in charge again, knowing how awful he was and was planning on being. The rest either gladly voted for it or could t be bothered to care

The US is officially a joke and a failing nation. Even if we somehow managed to get someone like Bernie in in 2028, I don't see our country ever coming back from this. We were already on our way out, but now we're going to become a pariah state.

Well, 10 Democrats voted to censure another Democrat as noted in the image. The underlying context is that Greene was heckling Der Furher when he was having a spell of verbal diarrhea when speaking in the fascist Empire council chamber.
