You can learn about spelling rules at your leisure but it might cause a seizure.

They ran through the door and got a fresh slice right into his mouth. Just in the nick of time!

Soon, they will be able to extract his essence and bring forth the next generation of their secret sauce.

Haha, exactly!

Shapeshifting is the universal superpower that gives you nearly everything:

• Change your appearance/sex on the fly (mega appeal to trans folks). The obvious benefit.
• Need extra reach? Just elastigirl your arms and legs. It's better than telekinesis in some ways!
• Want to get somewhere fast? Make yourself light and grow wings. You can fly! Maybe not as fast as "superhero flight" but still way faster and more efficient than running. Also don't need "sticky hands/feet" to climb: Just give yourself some serious claws.
• Want to swim fast? Give yourself fins! You might even manage gills and be able to breathe underwater.
• Need to stay warm in a super cold environment? Give yourself lots of insulating fat and thick fur! Polar bear mode!
• Need to be strong/move something heavy? Also polar bear mode!
• Depending on your skill, you can hide really well. Not as good as invisibility but still great.
• You can make stuff with your body! If you have super fine control, you could make diamonds.
• You can store stuff inside yourself the easy way. Literal pocket. As dry as you want (though probably still quite warm).

What it lacks:

• Mind control. Though, with enough psychological prowess, you could get people addicted to having sex with you (maybe?) 🤷
• Magic stuff.

Doesn't matter. It's the act of recording that's setting people off, not the publishing.

I don't know what the law is in Belgium but I bet it's the act of recording without consent that's illegal. Many European nations have laws like that and it seems short-sighted and wrong. It enables corruption.

These are both anti-data center messages. That's orthogonal to AI.

I bet if you asked these people if we should get rid of all data centers they'd say, "yes." Completely unaware that they're using (and relying on) services running out of data centers every day.

I'm surprised farmers aren't up in arms about this. This is the exact data that goes into the weather models that they rely on.

Is it going to rain much this season? Who TF knows! Trump removed all the sensors!

Are they really concerned that giant, ugly glasses contain not-actually-hidden-at-all cameras when actual devices, specifically designed to be hidden exist that do a vastly superior job?

This article is clickbait.

Aside: IMHO, recording anyone in public should always be allowed. The fact that it's men recording women shouldn't matter in the slightest. You have no expectation of privacy when you're in public.

If we ban recording in public without permission, tons of crimes will go unreported and actual villains will be able to get away with all sorts of horrific crimes. Imagine getting arrested or fined for recording someone being mugged, or kidnapped, or similar.

Are the cops beating someone to death right in front of you? Better not record that without asking for permission! Just walk out into the open and kindly ask for permission from both the cops and the victim.

"If you're sitting at home, which is true for the millions of people who are able-bodied on Medicaid, on average, you're spending 6.1 hours watching television, or just hanging around," Oz said. "So, as a path to prosperity, Congress very wisely said, 'Let's get you back into the workforce.'"

Why? Why do they need to be in the workforce? I pay taxes so people like that stay out of the workforce!

If they're on Medicaid there's a reason for that. Why TF should we be making them work? Just "because"?

Not everyone is meant to work! Some people are born to be wards of the state. Pretending people like this don't exist is insanity.

Other people get sick or have accidents that make them wards of the state. That's what "the system" is for!

Also, let's not pretend that this doesn't cost much. The elderly, and people on permanent disability are the most expensive to care for. That's why the Trump administration wants to kick them off... Because for each person that actually needs this vital government service that they kick off, they can save something like $100,000-130,000 (yes, that's the real figure... It's from Kaiser Family Foundation data).

This is why it wouldn't really cost that much to move everyone off private health insurance and into a socialized program (e.g. Medicare for all or similar proposals). Because we're already paying for the most expensive people/illnesses, tacking on the remaining healthy population would only add a marginal amount to the total cost and save taxpayers enormous amounts of money (compared to the amounts they're currently paying for health insurance).

To play it on dates, of course!

"So that's what happened to you."

How else are we going to get catgirls? 🤷

I'm an atheist but if there were a god that wanted to send a clear message about the consequences of picking the most antichrist-like leader to run your country it would be this:

You vote antichrist, you get a plague.

It already happened once 🤷

And by "antichrist" I don't mean the literal antichrist from the Bible. I mean, the person that's most unlike Christ:

• Hates immigrants and the poor.
• Super racist (let's just say he would never wash anyone's feet if they weren't Caucasian).
• Hoards wealth.
• Lies constantly.
• Cheated on all his wives. Has children from three!
• Intentionally spreads plague (e.g. COVID-19 spread first in Democratic strongholds/cities so he decided that was good for his chances at reelection and told people they didn't need to wear masks or get vaccinated).
• Extremely vain. I don't know if it's possible to be more vain than Trump.

It's actually him replaying how his last meeting with Putin went.

He was on his knees at the time though.
