@anxietymsgs We have a common ancestor - we're not literally evolved from existing species, but somewhere in the past, a common evolutionary ancestor had some of its evolutionary descendants go on to become chimpanzees, for example, and others go on to eventually become Homo sapiens.

Who can answer this?

@TheGeorgePu AI wrapper as in "that's the product, a wrapper for more general AI capability?" If so I can see the rationale - by the time your bespoke solution is complete, you may find that AI capability has obviated your product.

I've talked to dozens of AI startups this year. Great pitches. Real missions. Smart founders. Almost every single one is an AI wrapper. I kept thinking about why. Ceiling reached? Ideas ran out? Riding the wave? Honestly don't know.

@therealmrbench Whole chickens here in Panama go for about USD$1 per lb or about USD$3.50 for boneless cuts similar to those shown in the video. I can't imagine paying C$ prices since we left three years ago.

Can someone explain why chicken is: $8 /lb in Canada $2.75 / lb in USA

@zekramu LOL - first you need lots and lots of smoke detectors, be a boyscout, and have a burning desire to obtain a Nuclear Energy Merit Badge: harpers.org/archive/1998/1…

fuck local compute. that’s the play everyone else is doing. I need to figure out how to build local energy. anyone know how to build a small, safe, nuclear generator?

@naomirwolf When you see a crescent moon, for example, the reason it appears as a crescent is because the entire illuminated portion of the moon is predominantly on the side facing away from us - the far side, illuminated in the photo above.

@naiivememe Be Korea :D

she doesn’t need an Oscar, the Oscar needs her.

@EricRStPierre @4Gt2Hate It's not just that - it's the character of that constitution - it doesn't delineate natural rights - it deigns to grant them. That's just fundamentally wrong.

@4Gt2Hate You've nailed it. Canada has always been hindered by the British North America Act of 1867. Our constitution is literally a piece of legislation passed by Westminster. No Canadian ever voted on it, it was imposed by the British Empire!

Question of the day: If Canada keeps Balkanizing and the economic pain gets worse (which it will), would you rather fight to save the current country? Or accept we’re already on the path to the American fold?

@EricRStPierre Not directed at you: but if you think Trump was friendly to Carney because he had a plan to genuinely strengthen Canadian sovereignty, then you've got a two-digit IQ. Trump will "cooperate" with whoever can deliver the fastest train-wreck in this country, so we have no options.

@PhilSledge crumpets

I’m having these for Easter breakfast but not sure what they are called where you live.

@newstart_2024 It's like I feel my soul being sucked out of my being hearing some of the crazy...

@newstart_2024 Jesus - it was a rhetorical question - I didn't need to hear all of your batshit crazy responses....

Even though this is from an older podcast, Jimmy Carr’s take still hits different: “The Roman Empire didn’t fall. It became the Church.” And the British Empire? According to Jimmy, it didn’t collapse either — it simply turned into a bank. We handed the colonies back with a polite “sorry about that,” then offered to “hold” all their money safely in the City of London. Roman Empire → Vatican British Empire → Global financial hub Empires don’t die. They just rebrand. Still one of the most provocatively entertaining history takes I’ve heard. What’s your favourite “history didn’t end, it just changed form” observation?

@David_Riley70 @AmericaPapaBear The work required to refute bullshit is an order of magnitude greater than the work required to produce it (Brandolini's Law) - so pardon me if I take a shortcut and ask an impartial judge - but what's being said is straight bullshit. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brandolin…

@OnyschukMark @AmericaPapaBear Irrespective to this story, I will never shelf my brain at the door of AI! Touch grass. Use your own brain to figure out facts, not AI. Stop relying on AI over your own common sense, talent, comprehension skills, etc. (Humanity is becoming dependent on a machine to think!)

Remember those Iranian regime drone strikes on March 11? Well they didn't hit just any apartment in Dubai… it hit Zelensky's $2M luxury apartment which was confirmed by Saudi press.

@EshaAA33 yes

🚨 Be BRUTALLY honest: ICE officers in Charlotte smashed a car window and arrested an anti-ICE protester who was doxxing federal agents and tipping off illegal immigrants about upcoming raids. Are you OK with this? YES or NO?

@NHxpat @JimHansonDC Simple point - mullahs need to surrender unconditionally - Germany too was "screwed over" according to some as result of firebombing, but it worked, no more NAZIs

@JimHansonDC Great. Screw over the innocent citizens.

@stoolpresidente For typical old-school typewriters with fixed pitch output, two spaces after a sentence made sense. Today, computers typeset output and adjust space between character pairs like between a period and space, so an additional space is usually redundant.

Somebody please tell this fool my mother was a high school typing teacher and it’s grammatically correct to use 2 spaces. Take a seat clown

@trumplicans2024 summer sausage...

in chili... you?

@miaaowing This whole post feels super early-2000's to me... clearly it's not much of a problem for people other than you...

how the fuck do you mac nerds live without a dedicated delete key im losing my mind here

@EricRStPierre No - but it's moving towards becoming a simple means of perpetual rule by Liberal oligarchs, and right now they're pretty deep into the "you'll own nothing and be happy" camp.

Question of the day: Has Canada become obsolete as a nation?

@EkaterinaVD0 @David_Riley70 @AmericaPapaBear Нет, я лишь указываю на то, что выдвигать обвинения легко, легко их сфабриковать и легко опровергнуть. Тот идиот, который изначально опубликовал сообщение, услышал то, что хотел услышать, и выдал это за новость. Это был необоснованный слух.

@OnyschukMark @David_Riley70 @AmericaPapaBear А вы позволяете системе думать за вас, это путь к уничтожению. ИИ всего лишь ищет то что написано в интернете. Год назад вы могли спросить у Грок вмешивались ли украина в выборы США и он бы ответил что нет. Теперь эта информация есть и он отвечает да
