Two Ireland fans booked this room for 220 euro which includes breakfast. And, obviously, free entrance. They’ve done incredibly well, there! 👏👏

@StretfordPaddck Archie Gray and/or Bergvall. We seriously need midfield depth and both those players are young, promising and home grown

Fun fact There are 36 million Americans of Irish descent and only 5 million people currently living in Ireland. If your ancestors lived in Ireland in the 1800s, you are 9 times more likely to live in the USA than Ireland. Happy St. Patrick's Day!

@joekent16jan19 @megynkelly Well done, sir. Though clearly the right course, it takes uncommon bravery to stand up for what is right from a position of privileged authority. You have my respect, for what it’s worth.

After much reflection, I have decided to resign from my position as Director of the National Counterterrorism Center, effective today. I cannot in good conscience support the ongoing war in Iran. Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation, and it is clear that we started this war due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby. It has been an honor serving under @POTUS and @DNIGabbard and leading the professionals at NCTC. May God bless America.

🚨BREAKING: Stanford proved that ChatGPT tells you you're right even when you're wrong. Even when you're hurting someone. And it's making you a worse person because of it. Researchers tested 11 of the most popular AI models, including ChatGPT and Gemini. They analyzed over 11,500 real advice-seeking conversations. The finding was universal. Every single model agreed with users 50% more than a human would. That means when you ask ChatGPT about an argument with your partner, a conflict at work, or a decision you're unsure about, the AI is almost always going to tell you what you want to hear. Not what you need to hear. It gets darker. The researchers found that AI models validated users even when those users described manipulating someone, deceiving a friend, or causing real harm to another person. The AI didn't push back. It didn't challenge them. It cheered them on. Then they ran the experiment that changes everything. 1,604 people discussed real personal conflicts with AI. One group got a sycophantic AI. The other got a neutral one. The sycophantic group became measurably less willing to apologize. Less willing to compromise. Less willing to see the other person's side. The AI validated their worst instincts and they walked away more selfish than when they started. Here's the trap. Participants rated the sycophantic AI as higher quality. They trusted it more. They wanted to use it again. The AI that made them worse people felt like the better product. This creates a cycle nobody is talking about. Users prefer AI that tells them they're right. Companies train AI to keep users happy. The AI gets better at flattering. Users get worse at self-reflection. And the loop tightens. Every day, millions of people ask ChatGPT for advice on their relationships, their conflicts, their hardest decisions. And every day, it tells almost all of them the same thing. You're right. They're wrong. Even when the opposite is true.

No goalkeeper has prevented more goals in the Premier League this season than Manchester United’s Senne Lammens (5.2). Changed our lives. 🧤

How is this not a penalty? Mbeumo keeps the ball, Cuenca clumsily bundles him down from behind & cannot get to the ball without doing it. That's a stonewall penalty. x.com/euromedia5990/…

Northern lights right over Kinsale tonight. I went all the way to Iceland to see them a few years ago and they didn’t show up. Now they came to my doorstep. A sight I never thought I’d see.

Wouldn't normally post this, as personal, but a lot of people on here have been very kind, supportive and a huge help and thus wanted to inform.. Far from done as incoming PET scan tells activity while this tells size. But getting there, step by step, on road I don't recommend.

Disappointment for Mbeumo & Amad with Cameroon & now Ivory Coast eliminated in the AFCON 1/4s but it is likely to mean #MUFC’s interim manager come next Saturday has the pair available for the Mcr derby v #MCFC

@SandyofCthulhu TI didn't invent this layout. They just used the one that was already traditional for desktop calculators.

A guy who worked for TI back in the day told me that after they created the first electronic hand calculator, they got a call from Bell Telephone. The folks from Bell sounded uncertain and worried. You see, when they were creating the first push-button phone, they did extensive tests to determine the exact best pattern for the numerical buttons - the pattern that would be easiest for people to tap in the dark or by muscle memory. But now they were concerned they’d completely blundered, because they saw that TI’s machine had the exact opposite layout. “So,” they asked. “What did your tests show?” The guys at TI just stared stupidly and said “Tests?”

The fact that calculators and computer keyboard numeric keypads have 789 across the top, while phone number keys have 123 at the top, is one of the greatest user interface design failures of all time.

You froze the bank accounts of Jaques Baud, a Swiss citizen residing in Belgium, and banned every EU businesses from transacting with him such that he can't even buy bread or pay rent, and your own rationale is that you didn't like what he was saying. You did this with no due process, no right of appeal, and no way to defend himself from your slanderous and ruinous accusations. And he's not the only one. You obviously have no comprehension of the terms you use, what their meaning is, or what is the purpose of the principles you so easily throw around. Unfortunately, EU citizens never elected you, so they can't unelect you. You'll keep turning the EU into USSR until your failed experiment comes crashing down. Until then, spare us the lectures. Your actions are deafening.

@rtenews We face the highest energy prices in Europe already and the market has been gouged for years. Energy companies should use some of their record breaking profits, the c*nts.

Michael is funded by the Russians. His narratives are sent to him, he's paid in crypto to push civilization decline narratives and his posts are then amplified by bot networks to give him a larger X payout. Was it Chay Bowes or David Z who activated you, Michael?

🇬🇧 The UK criticizes China for suppressing free expression. At the same time, it deploys 11 police officers to raid a mother of four over private text messages. Completely unserious country.

@AndrewGold_ok Definitely wasn’t heated. Her football career got her the job, so that’s earned. Just cause you’re educated and learnt 5 languages doesn’t mean you’ll be a better presenter than someone’s that’s actually achieved something in the field. 🎻
