  • Sometimes. And when they dont, there is no one to stop them. It's the age old problem of a wise despot. Just dressed in different clothes.

  • Me: Please let me know how many homeless people each church would need to host to help all the homeless people

    ChatGPT: Each church in the United States would need to host approximately 1.87 homeless people to accommodate all the homeless individuals in the country.

    That is truly absurd!

  • Multitask. Listen to a podcast AND do what you are doing now. Can't be many people that sit down, focus and say "I'll now listen to a podcast and do nothing else".

  • Europe on high alert after suspected Moscow-linked arson and sabotage

    Jump

  • Always was.

  • Linux Inventor Says He Doesn’t Believe in Crypto

    Jump

  • All very true but missing one point. Most (all?) current "regular currency" is fiat (let it be done) with no backing except tax payments and government spending. Sure, that's not nothing but it's also not so much something.

    Crypto, as fiat currency, has the value people ascribe to it. If it can be traded for goods and/or services, it has value. What value? Only time will tell.

  • That time when Microsoft bought and killed Nokia phone unit

  • I was just waiting for the n900 whining so that I could join in. Damn, I miss my n900. It had flaws but for its time, it was amazing. With a good CPU, I'd buy it today in a heartbeat.

  • "turgid prose". Way to keep a similar tone.

  • China is a threat to Europe’s gunpowder supply, defense boss warns

    Jump

  • It refers to the part that makes it into Europe and is thus Europe's supply. Even stretching it, it supplies Europe and is thus Europe's supply. The possessive form does not indicate control over all or part of the supply.

    My water supply comes from the county. Your air supply comes from, well... the air, or the Earth.

    If Europe still was the colonial power it once was, you might have a point. Not a semantic one but a "bad choice of word"-one. But it's not and so you don't.

  • Trump was forced to listen silently as potential jurors offered their unvarnished assessments of him
