And maybe not only foreign lands, but also their own ones.

Yeah, shining and flaring like the beautiful little stars they are supposed to be!

Hm, just one quick thought: Wouldn’t it be better to look out which track doesn’t have people lying there? However, far sight only goes that far, I guess

I was at a place where you had to pay extra fees for actually eat/drink there instead of taking it with you

Maybe they should call themselves ICES

And then the better tools just scrape most of it, because it’s considered then-a-days as “boring” and “not catchy”. I recently ran some old songs through Suno. Sure, the tracks are catchy, but they scraped most of the buildup, intentionally overlapping sounds and noise and after listening to some originally different tracks, they kind of had the same beat and vibes in the newly generated tracks. Hope that gets better instead of worse.

And if they add lead or something else heavy to the packaging? Ha! Checkmate!

They produce a lot of trucks… strategic

Do you know everything you did? Hell, I can’t even remember all I did a week ago. Maybe selective memory

Hereeee we areeeee…

I’m only saying that once you have a copy copied and at some point it just blurred out or if somebody (or some political regime) says “that needs adaptation”, we can’t be sure if that outcome is the same as the originating script. If it can be 100% verified, that that’s the original text, sure. But maybe we should all take more than 2 millennia old scriptures with some kind of skepticism if that’s really the message its supposed to be. I’m not a Christian myself either. I’m just somebody trying to figure out the whole meaning and what it’s all about. I have my flaws and imperfections. I just don’t try to be an ahole (though even sometimes I certainly am). But I get the feeling that there is some meaning in these ancient texts. At least in some parts which aren’t translated incorrectly. I think what the authors of those ancient texts wanted to tell us, was to not live in hate or harm, but to connect with each other. The overlapping message within many different religious texts is probably the same. And yet, to this point, it got so distorted that people are divided by all these translations, all these misguiding sentences. They’re used for justification to just do the opposite of the intended (e.g., war against another religion, war against a specific subgroup, etc.). But well, maybe I’m just fantasizing that and the world is supposed to be a war room shithole. It was nothing against your attempt to make something of it. I really think, that that attempt is noble. I just wanted to comment on the history of that.

Hm, I don’t want to sound all negative about that, “but”: maybe that’s the thing all of those transcribers in history thought about that “original” text (and before and before, etc.). I’m sure you do it with much more good intentions than transcribers working for regimes in power etc., but still it changes the message. Think about animal farm and the rules which are changed over time. That’s the problem with sticking to ancient texts which may not be well translated for the current Zeitgeist.

And even if it was the “Roman salute”, didn’t they introduce the fasces? Isn’t it just a symbol for “power”? Although I read, that it initially should signal “unity and harmony”. Hmm, lost in translation

Isn’t expansion comparable to speed instead of acceleration? If the universe is expanding, i.e., already spreading in all kinds of directions constantly, wouldn’t slower expansion mean deceleration? But I guess you meant the same with “eventual collapse later, but probably not now”.

If it’s slowing down right now instead of expanding what was previously observed, that actually means that there was quite a force to get it into the other direction. Or am I misinterpreting things?

I feel you. I have my old PC with quiet an “ancient” chipset. Installed an NVMe and installed Linux on it… Just to find out that my AHCI controller isn’t supported by it with all my Windows hard drives. It’s either booting that NVMe with the Linux one or booting the deprecated Windows ones from BIOS. 12-13 years of reliable hardware… :/ Hope there is a kernel patch supporting it again

Delayed input, immediate output!

Well…

"… California Senator Scott Wiener quickly defended Anthropic, prompting Sacks to respond that Wiener’s “rushing to defend Anthropic tells you everything you need to know about how closely they’re working together to impose the Left’s regulatory agenda”

Actually, it seems that the current government sees regulations as"left wokeism". Which doesn’t surprise me at all, because if it got aligned for the better, it wouldn’t work well for them.

Huh? I mean, damn, lots of comments are wild. Just let people breathe a bit. Sometimes I’m also only realizing one or two things after I started talking. Sometimes even mid-sentence. And also, maybe for some people “huh” is just an instinctive reaction they burp out randomly. Also I go with the “what’s huh after all” comment. Maybe they just abstracted the meaning of it in those simple letters. Maybe “huh” means a world to them
