This is a gross misinterpretation of the Schrödinger’s cat thought experiment and how the lottery actually works. That said, this is genuinely a shower thought because it’s logic evaporates as quickly as you dry off and put your thinking pants on.

Don’t blame Plex for that, they’re just aggregating streams from other sources.

Despite your resolve, none of what you just said is actually coherent or shows any understanding of the above comment in context, just like an LLM.

Talking to you is like talking to a chat bot and I don’t like it.

Not with a good set of kitchen shears. sorry I misread your comment.

What part wasn’t clear that I didn’t explain in my previous comment?

I wasn’t trying to be mean. I have no shame about masturbation. I wasn’t being sarcastic or snide. I meant what I said genuinely and without prejudice. You’re using a machine because it’s easy, self fulfilling, and you don’t have to worry about the complexities of interacting with another person. How is that any different than using a vibrator? If you feel shame about this or using a sex toy by yourself, maybe you should reflect on those feelings and analyze if they are helping you or hurting you.

I just cook them in butter, which contains a bunch of water, and skip the oil. Although, I’m sure a little braising or sweating and oil would work better for some dishes.

Also: bacon, chives, green onions, parsley, other herbs. If you have a decent pair of kitchen shears, you can even break down a whole chicken in no time. Kitchen shears are my preferred method of spatchcocking a chicken for roasting.

What is the irony?

This just sounds like platonic masturbation.

EDIT: I started this thread tongue and cheek, but also genuine, but based on the OP’s comment replies here I’m fairly convinced that they are either: a) talking to chatGPT so much that they’ve lost the ability to hold a coherent conversation, or b) just using a LLM to respond everywhere in the comments. They’ve consistently failed to address tone and context in every comment. It reads like they don’t actually understand any of the things people here are saying, just stringing together some words and syntax that sounds like language, but totally lacks any actual meaning or understanding.

Is that premise even true? This feels like begging the question.

Christopher Columbus (Squirrels & Onions remix) doesn’t technically have lyrics, but I always sing the title words along with the beat, at least in my head. Kinda of like how a lot of EDM just turns into Boots and Cats in my head.

The Star Trek Theme was originally composed with lyrics.

Why?

Then maybe you can tell me what “attempting to do more” means, because the author of the article certainly didn’t. Or why that’s bad. My only take away is that the author thinks the system should facilitate the running of applications and just get out of their way already. But that sounds a lot like building a road network and then failing to install traffic controls because the DOT should just stay out of the way of traffic.

This is why I set up tasker to lockdown my phone under certain conditions, such as: getting disconnected from Bluetooth (like when my phone is separated from me and my watch, my headphones, or the car), getting disconnected from WiFi (like when it’s taken from where it’s supposed to be), getting a slight jolt from the accelerometer (like getting thrown to the ground or even just a swift tap). My phone may get locked down a bunch during day to day stuff, but at least I know it will lockdown automatically when it matters.

Larry Niven kind of works out this naming in several of his novels. I don’t remember all the specifics, and he also used a similar scheme to describe travel in ring world, but it’s close enough. First, don’t bother with calling it north, that is just confusing. In the reference frame of yourself or the map you’re drawing in a spinning galaxy, you’ve got spinward (in relation to the galactic spin) and anti-spinward, in (toward galactic center) and out, and then normal (orthogonal) to those dimensions, which you could call up and down depending on your preference. I’d probably call spinward, inward, and up positive.

If you need a reference (north) for a galactic map, it’s really unlikely you’ll want to use anything like grid coordinates. You can use the same ideas from the local map. You’d probably want an origin at the gravity center of the galaxy and pick another object as a reference point from which to zero angular measurements around the disc. That other object could be another galaxy (if you want to measure galactic spin itself) or something distinct and obvious in our own galaxy (if you want to navigate within the galaxy). Most civilizations would probably just use a line between their home system and galactic center as their prime meridian. Up and down should be orthogonal to spin again. If you’re home planet had a magnetic pole roughly pointing out of the galactic disc (like ours), you’d probably choose your “north” pole’s side up.

I know the Hogwarts Legacy game got a lot of hate from Rowling being a monster, but the game mechanics really let you optimize stealthing. I’ve snuck into many a goblin stronghold and just sneaky sneak murder-hobo’d like 20 or more of them, one at a time, looting the bodies before they even hit the floor. They even show the little ! icon. I feel like I’m playing Solid Snake goes to Hogwarts sometimes.
