When dealing with truth, you have to have a basis. If your parents aren't actively teaching you, then it's going to be school or other children surrounding you. As we grow older, we start to learn little cues of how someone might be lying to us.
AI is a language system. It gives us what sounds good. No different, in any way, than your common sweet talking grifter. Every now and then they speak the truth, but it's when they lie you need to be worried.
Children are using this!

Arch isn't a great operating system for me unless it's backed by something a little more stable like it is on the steam deck.
I have enough of a tendency that over a period of time I'll eventually break the whole system and have to reinstall. Debian's a little more stable and forgiving for me screwing with something.

I argue that a good, healthy society agrees with you, and that selective breeding is necessary. And the way they do this is through selectively choosing their mates. This is why, for the longest time, it was considered good to have a good-looking husband or wife to have healthy children. But now that we've sat here and made all of those poor children feel so much better because the prom queen took the invalid retard to prom doesn't help anything.

If I may, when the Lord said "vengeance his mine" or "justice is mine," he was talking about sin. Sin is a direct departure from God. And God alone has the right to have justice for that sin.
However, regarding matters of the world, there are times when we are not only allowed, but quite possibly required to act and bring someone to justice for that action. To pray for mercy is mercy from your sin, a wholly different thing from crime.

The worst is that it's going to take forever for the drone to get out, then someone to see that there is an issue, then for a cop to actually deploy. All of this in spite of the fact that somebody called 911 and said send cops.

And the whole thing is, I wouldn't mind the idea of an EV car (for local driving). But I'm darn well not going to put all of these kill switches and proprietary things in. When the engine dies in that old car, I'm just going to pull it out and put in my own EV conversion.

This could be very useful in a search and rescue situation where you know the other person had a node on them, and you could see and even triangulate where they are, even if they aren't transmitting their GPS.

What would be really interesting is if you could have the node send waypoint updates to the drone, allowing it to run distances. However, quadcopters have a short battery. So, that's a little tougher to get maximum use out of it. But a plane on autopilot would be very interesting with meshtastic.

I'm running Jellyfin on a mini desktop PC. It's probably 7+ years old now. I upgraded to a 14T external hard drive because I'm on an archival kick. Now, while I do re-encode nearly everything just to keep the sizing down, on a separate computer, I never have trouble browsing in the Jellyfin app. It's very snappy and nothing has buffered for years.
I've never had trouble browsing, but my re-encoding may be why I don't have any issues.

So, fun thing, they keep saying that none of the ID scans for Discord are going to ever leave your local device, or their server, or it'll be deleted right away. But they never said that the hash that it makes of your face so that it can be identified, or the hash that has all of your data in it and can be reversed, will ever go anywhere. They're just talking about the actual photo. They've already figured out how to pull all your stuff off that photo and put it everywhere they want. Good luck

It'd be really cool if you could queue up the things you want to watch and it like pre-decoded them for easy playback.
I know that's getting into a deep feature for Jellyfin, but it would be neat that, like, okay, they've watched up to this episode in a season. Let's pre-decode the next five in case they binge those. Meanwhile, everything else is very compressed.

You may not know the spitting corporations, especially large ones. It's actually standard practice to deny any request by an employee immediately without even review.

They first changed it by removing all black and ravens. Then they only changed half of it by putting black and ravens back in. There's a very interesting mathematical thing that's done on paper that shows that 1+1 can actually equal 3 by doing all of this extravagant math and rounding the most obscure far-off number decimal point, then you can get it to equal 3. This is of the same ilk. They're spitting in the face of common sense to make a tiny change that's considered acceptable.

I take great issue with this simply based on the one fact that in math, when you are dealing with fractions, if you apply something to one side of the fraction, the other side must get the exact same application. In this example, there were two sides by using that "logical" method of their fraction, and they applied a change to only one but not the other. Therefore, their fractions became uneven. i.e. gibberish.

A standard toilet uses 1.2g/flush these use 1.1g/f for #1 and 1.6g/f for #2.
That means you have to pee 5 times per poop to equal a normal toilet's usage. Some cities actually require them!

One of the best ways to win an argument is to present too much data. It doesn't matter if it's correct or not. Simply tell the other person to disprove it. You can even use lies as "proof" for your lies. Thus compounding the amount of work you put on someone else. When they give up, you win.
Then you can use them as more "proof" you're right. "See, he agrees."
By the way, anyone can use the above with a large enough group to take a leadership roll.
