Well it did find me and my beer is so cold I’m actually letting it warm up!

Yep. You can take solace in that iit’s so cold where I am right now, beer was a stupid choice. But the same firewood warming me up right now has been making the shower water hot af for the last two hours. I’ll scold myself with first degree burns and pretend I like it, just in spite…

…okay, you win.

Ford and Tesla batteries linked to destructive deforestation of indigenous lands

Aspiring to reach way down to the lowest bar, Ford and Tesla are doing Volkswagen things. But a spokesperson from VW pointed out every other impact the corporation has had on the environment in the last three decades, stating, “Halt mal mein Bier.”

I have no idea who their market was… Literally, I cannot fathom a person into cars, ICEs, and Teslas. You can be into two of those things—though being into cars and Teslas is a stretch—but not all three. It’s impossible.

Car enthusiast: Thinks Teslas are disasterous at basic car things. But understands being an EV is at least something it has going for it.

ICE enthusiast: Always prefers reduction of unnecessary tech and likes the traditional rawness. But understands electric motors definitely do outperform in many things these days.

Tech enthusiast: Prefers the gadgetry above all else. Little concern for the vehicle part, and ICEs are for meatheads.

Then there’s all the modern cars out there covering all of these people already. Maxxing out the 2/3 things, making them a perfect choice.

And then chanting “USA!”?

🤣🤣🤣

Confessed, then. USA is the Pedophile Mecca and MAGA minions just absolutely love that for them. I mean, it’s of no surprise to anyone in the world at this point, just surprising that they’d admit that.

If the EU failed at it, the US has no hope.

The more sensitive folks is how they got in. Apathy, hypersensitivity, and fear were the simple channels to exploit that caused to the US’s downfall.

I use simple names for coffee. Friends do the same. Something easy to hear and understand like Jay, Fay, Lee, etc. They never ask for spelling or ask you to repeat it and it’s easy to hear when crowded.

Imagine this… It’s -10C outside, 4am so the solar batteries have drained and the heating stopped an hour ago. The winter duvet is amazing, but the bathroom is a tiled floor. By the time you’re done peeing, even the socks are starting to get cool. You rush back into bed, carefully not slashing the warm duvet with your diamond nipples.

On general social media? It’s gonna be 99.999% of the time and will be still when “intellectual disability” becomes taboo… Literally how the term ‘euphemism treadmill’ came about.

Yeah, and both changed because, as medical science and discovery improved, the terminology became too vague and inappropriate compared to more accurate terms that better described the various conditions discovered. Just like how “falling ill” used to be all we had to describe things we knew nothing about like cancer, autoimmune disease, aggressive viruses or bacterias, etc.

That’s why these two words in mental context could only be used as a slur, since they’re entirely redundant in medicine now.

Perhaps read first. If you had, you’d see I’ve already indirectly raised your points for you before. So I don’t know who your argument is aimed it. But, sure, call me ignorant and agree with me.

The discussion is about not striking out a word because of ignorance of anything but a slur.

To use your own example, we don’t refer to “colored” as “the C word”, so I don’t know you even brought it up. We don’t villianise words because sometimes ignorant people use them as a slur. Even the dictionary addresses this.

Still is a medical term, for example, a retarded dose is one where the drug is released at a slowed pace.

Same usage as retarded timing in engines by delaying the spark. Then there’s all the chemical retarders for delaying reactions, like in mixing concrete or epoxy.

If you know music, you know ritard on tempo control.

If you get offended by “the R word” don’t ever become a pilot because the cockpit will exclaim “Retard! Retard! Retard!” on landing when you’ve neglected the throttle and it needs to be shortened.

Because of exactly what it means, it’s super common and useful. Ignorant people’s minds just go straight to a slur, probably because they used to use it as one.

Hmm… You’re right. That’s a big job and I’m only paid to do it.

Okay, let’s blame the 3D printer people.

more /ssssssss

The R word is a word used all the time. Just because you only know it as a neurological slur, doesn’t mean we censor it for your sake

But, yes, it was used as a slur specific to neurology in this case, arguably. So, “Learn what the word ‘retard’ means, you morons.” would’ve been a more appropriate response, apparently…

Edit: Sorry, so many typos. I’ve had a couple scotches. Need a scotch retardant. WATER!!!

Don’t forget Suuuupeeer Intelligence by Vibe

Mere mortals exceed these planes!

Yes, exceed… Such is this magic.

I don’t mind if people are dumb, slow, whatever. It’s out of my control so, meh. But when I’m put into risk I give a fuck.

My biggest hate is people just stopping or crawling on a road as they think of want they want to do next. Because so often there’s some other idiot on their phone that could be behind me that hasn’t noticed the idiot in front of me has slowed down to 20kph for their situational ponderings.

Feels like more and more these days I’m looking into the rearview mirror anxiously saying, “Oh my god, MOVE.”

abandoned because its unmaintainable

Exactly this. It’s hard enough maintaining my own code. It can take a good 15 mins or so to familiarise myself with something I haven’t worked on in a short while. Seeing code that isn’t mine is very challenging. Not the code itself, but the methods and structures used by the other person. All that has to be done before hunting bugs and adjusting features. Then of course there’s the things you don’t know about that can be easily missed.

An AI would need to thoroughly know the code and detailed context on the decisions behind it all, every session, in order to be able to maintain it with vibe, because the vibe coder won’t know any of this.

Uh, yeah! Mine too. All the pirate stuff has been my damned appliances. I delete the files immediately, of course. I wouldn’t even steal a car, let alone a movie.
