“All I said was, ‘this pizza pocket is good enough for Allah!’.”

“There! You see?! He said it again. Blasphemer!”

Neither AI nor OpenAI’s management are capable of understanding irony.

I think there were some legitimate concerns about the potential nuclear threat as well as uncertainty regarding Russia’s actual capabilities.

Now we’ve seen that Russia’s claims don’t hold any more water than a strainer, the west should be more aggressive with its assistance. The Ukrainians have already demonstrated that they are not just going to take it laying down and they’re the only reason Russia hasn’t moved on to invading other former Soviet states. I think we owe them all assistance we can give.

Knew one family that had a big rear projection in their “media room”. Going to watch movies at their house was a legit event.

No need to blow through stop lights when you can just blow them up.

Putler is [most likely] a sociopath. He’s has no morals but he’s not clinically insane. The only thing using nukes would guarantee for him is his own death, which he must certainly be aware of.

…if Russia even has any functioning nukes.

Least reliable and highest maintenance costs of any light artillery.

Hi dad!

The Mayor should just go ahead and resign. Take the city attorney with him while he’s at it.

What a bunch of asshats.

They couldn’t even keep track of the reactors from the nuclear powered lighthouses in Siberia.

if Russia nuked itself on its own territory.

The fact that it’s Russia substantially increases this possibility.

It’s kind of funny to me that a significant reason Russia is in its current predicament is because of rampant corruption. Putin runs the country like a Mafia state and then gets all surprised Pikachu Face when it becomes apparent that his underlings just stole all the money instead of using it to maintain their weapons stockpile, which is now aging and dilapidated.

I wouldn’t pay for an AI subscription but I have no problem using my own PC for work on the condition that they give me a VM to remote into. Mainly because I like using my three big monitors and the shitty laptops my previous employers provided are either underpowered or locked down to the point where multi-monitor support is really poor.

I do pay for tools that I use outside of work and if it’s something that helps me with my day job, I have no problem using it for that. That said, using AI to generate code is usually a waste of time. Unless it’s something really, really basic.

You get what you pay for. Paying garbage prices [often] means you’re getting garbage.

You’re not missing anything.

I forgot about that part! Saddam had the whole thing taped and distributed copies all over Iraq. We take the ease of media distribution today for granted. Much harder to do in 1979. That was truly some next level bragging. “I’m in charge now. Go fuck yourself.”
