I still like this version of a natural American borders:

Huh, didn't know that! I mainly mentioned it for the fact that it was crammed into products that didn't need it, like fridges and toasters where it's usually seen as superfluous, much like AI.

Tip if you care about it, Steam Deck has Bluetooth and can connect to Bluetooth devices like any computer. You should be able to get a small Bluetooth keyboard (without a dongle!) and use it for anything on the deck.

It's not like these societies were completely disconnected from each other (except Japan). Remember even people in the past borrowed things from their history for their beliefs. The entirety of Hermeticism is the fusion of Greek and Egyptian beliefs for example (Hermes and Thoth specifically).

My biggest gripe with Webp. If people just add support like Jpg, Png, Tiff, ect. then I could just use it like any other image without having to open with a browser.

Had a weird compulsion when seeing an ad for a dress, went into denial and redirected my focus to something else on the ad for my feelings (a stupid looking hoodie).

When analyzing these feelings I soothed myself by thinking "maybe I could just dress up mannequins as decoration or something".

Most egg moment of my life. It's like my brain knew and purposely avoided it.

You would like Global Workspace Theory, basically says your consciousness is the result of components of the brain broadcasting their information to the whole.

I also like Integrated Information Theory which measures the conscious experience of a system by how integrated it is, which means that you can't reduce the system to the sum of it's parts without losing the emergent properties.

This is typically why education and experience are still needed if you're self taught.

I know from learning programming that people online don't explain "common sense" problems. So many times you'll look up a problem and see people talk about huge refactors or complex niche fixes when in reality you misplaced a single line of code.

I don't remember many of these from the movie...

I want the technology invented.. to then be recreated by someone else.

I'm never letting Musk turn my brain into BrainX™.

I didn't know that was possible, new fear unlocked.

I have a Raspberry Pi and twice I uninstalled something with the goal of reinstalling it, only to realize that what I uninstalled was required to install anything. And I broke the desktop several times over.

I now use apt install --reinstall, I learned my lesson.
