literally looking at Berkey water filters for that reason. also, pretty happy to have been working on some home farming skills as well. totally fine country. normal even. TOTALLY NORMAL. 🙃

every time someone tried to call me in i would say i've had alcoholic drinks; they shut up pretty quick after that.

hmm but i'm being told it's my fault, specifically

jesus, well this is cementing my choice to move to a deep blue state to get away from people politicizing my existence.

i'm going to snap and i'm going to

this is pretty much what i think, yeah.

a lot of programming/software design is already kinda that anyway. it's a bunch of people who were educated on computer science principles, data structures, mathematicians, and data analytics/stats who write code to specs to solve very specific tool problems for very specific subsets of workers, and who maintain/update legacy code written decades ago.

now, yeah, a lot things are coded from scratch, but even then, you're referencing libraries of code written by someone awhile ago to solve this problem or serve this purpose or do thing, output thing. that's where LLMs shine, imo.

what a save!
what a save! what a save!

the issue is not with individual doctors or nurses.

the issue lies with for profit healthcare providers being slaves to the insurers. i work with providers daily; they are overworked and often are not able to provide the best care possible because the system sees people as a collection of data/telemetry to optimize.

it's disgusting, shameful, and damn near barbaric. not if you have a lot of money though.

yeah i'm in my 30s and i get routinely carded at events and people place me in my late 20s still.

a lot of it is genes, but i also: have a good skin care routine, use sunscreen every day, rarely drink alcohol, and use nicotine rarely. those are big factors that shouldn't be discounted.

i do like the conversation pits though. despite their potential issues, they look cool as hell.

i was banned for similar reasons.

seems like a lot of mods just have the ability to say whatever about whoever and the admins just nuke any account they target.

this is so rad. thanks for making one of my favorite movies even better
