Unless it wasn’t a bribe but just a gratuity. Thanks Roberts court!

RetroPi is a great emulator setup for a Raspberry Pi. It’s cheap to get into, small, and works with any existing Bluetooth controllers you may have.

Other languages kinda do. In Spanish, east and west are este and oeste. Italian is est and ovest.

In reality, AI will help solve a lot of our medical ignorance. Not the goofball LLMs, but specialized AI algorithms specifically geared towards niche medical research and applications. Don’t let GPT and Gemini sour the potential of some possibly game changing software.

She’s ionized?

These people people blamed Obama for 9/11. They’re not to be taken seriously and avoided at all costs.

Men 18-40 spouting racist, bigoted, and antisemitic things are “young boys”.

However, when it’s girls, minors, that are sexually assaulted, they are “young women.”

That really is quite the uncomfortable double standard.

I’ve also heard the “stupid tax” or “dumb tax” as what you pay when learning or doing something new. There will be times that you look or feel like an idiot, but we’ve all been there, don’t let it stop you. Learn from your mistakes and persevere. You’re never too old to keep learning - knowledge, skills, compassion, empathy, shame, regret, success, failure. Life’s a trip, appreciate it for all its aspects and keep at it.

It doesn’t have to be Bernie himself - he’s ancient, no argue about that. He’s got solid, unwavering values that he’s held for decades. He promotes and endorses liberal policies that are good for the nation. The takeaway is that liberal policies are popular and they excite people. Heading for the center bores everyone.

As a single tool, no, not a chance in hell of becoming fluent. It’s definitely a good aide and introduction to branch out into more media and sources of another language though.

I will say, with Duolingo I do appreciate the manipulation to keep me going. I probably wouldn’t have spent near as much time on another language if it weren’t for keeping that streak going. I can definitely understand the harm in it being used for maligne purposes. With any tool, it’s who wields it and for what intent.

SSDD? Same shit, different dictator - I like it

Ohhhhhhhhh…so he’s an idiot?

Yes, but somehow Q4 2024 was all Trump.

That actually sounds amazing. Especially when you leave an air conditioned building and go sit in your car. Don’t turn it on, just sit in it for a minute and let the warmth envelope you. I love Midwestern summer.

And tragically, that’s how America elected a third party candidate.

I just came across this gem:
