He could always learn it. Maybe go to his local community college and take a programming class. He could take an intro physics class as well. Might help him out.

Ragnarok314159 ,

Nah, it’s just the 0.004% probability coming out.

There is a lot of old money where I grew up, and it was funny hearing about Blackrock trying to buy their properties. They would offer these people ten times the value, but old money was just “but, that’s just a little bit more money in the money bin. I have a massive house and estate to look at the peasants. Why would I bother?”

Ragnarok314159 ,

Or Lizard people first trying to study us.

Ragnarok314159 ,

Mimiclike predators sound like psychopaths. Which, very much would be a reason we evolved uncanny valley, but they learned to blend in.

Ragnarok314159 ,

Now, imagine the violence early human bought upon early chimps to become the dominant species but also make them shy away from us.

Ragnarok314159 ,

I was thinking psychopath. Someone who tries to blend in and act normal but never quite gets it. We have no problem be horrors to other species, but early humans couldn’t afford a psychopath willing and wanting to kill their own tribe.

Ragnarok314159 ,

Usually they just an MBA.

Ragnarok314159 ,

I think you missed the proverbial point. We likely slaughtered the chimps and put their heads on pikes. Chimps have nothing on the violence humans are capable of inflicting.

Ragnarok314159 ,

Are you legitimately stupid? Do you not understand what the commonly accepted definition is for psychopath?

I suggest you figure it out before spouting Reddit level drivel.

The ugly truth behind ChatGPT: AI is guzzling resources at planet-eating rates (www.theguardian.com)

Despite its name, the infrastructure used by the “cloud” accounts for more global greenhouse emissions than commercial flights. In 2018, for instance, the 5bn YouTube hits for the viral song Despacito used the same amount of energy it would take to heat 40,000 US homes annually....

Ragnarok314159 ,

I plan on building my own Golden Gate Bridge (to scale) and then jump off!

Ragnarok314159 ,

That depends on the show they put on. There are many of us that would pay a few bucks to watch someone use a vibrator that powerful on themselves.

Ragnarok314159 ,

Look up how much pollution is made from the massive shipping boats when they get into international waters and start burning bilge oil.

Ragnarok314159 ,

My kids can also make poop dragon pictures. Has entertained them for hours.

Ragnarok314159 ,

You can search, it will just cost you $15/mo for the Google battlepass.

I got a job at Subway when leaving the army, mostly out of boredom. Told them the only day I cannot come in is Thursdays, that’s when I go into the VA for my deployment issues. Put that is writing, got hired. They also had something like this where you have to always be on call. They called my on Thursday in the middle of a counseling session, so on Friday I was fired.

Turns out, the FAFO is strong with this one. The VA asked if I put it in writing, “Yes, here is the email”. Several weeks later the fine leveraged against the owner was so high she had to sell the business. She called me, asking when I am coming back in (I could tell it was being recorded, could hear the static) and I laughed and told her you can’t record me, and you fired me, then hung up.

Turns out shitcanning veterans who just got back from a deployment during the height of “we all love Murica!” gets you zero sympathy from anyone.

Ragnarok314159 ,

After meeting many a middle manager, I can say with absolute certainty that they would write something like this.

Ragnarok314159 ,

I am fine now. This was a while ago. But thank you for the concern, it is appreciated. I dropped my apron on the floor when leaving and did a “well…bye”.

The manager said to pick it up.

“I don’t work here”

Ragnarok314159 ,

Would this be quick? Sign me up.

Ragnarok314159 ,

The chat programs on AOL from the Warez rooms was always fun.

Ragnarok314159 ,

My employer will likely pay extra to remove copilot AI. It has zero use for us, and we already pay extra for security enhanced Win 11 which is just the software without the tracking and screenshots.

Ragnarok314159 ,

I took my kid to the doctor, and when we left she asked if we could go visit the places I grew up and went to school. Drove by my grade school but didn’t stop in, still in session. Went by my junior high and there was my science teacher, she was probably a few years from retirement.

I said hi and we talked for a bit, told her “no, not a parent, you were my teacher almost 30 years ago”, and she got a huge smile on her face and was really happy one of her students recognized her and talked with her for a while.

Made the trip worth it, but I am glad she didn’t remember me. Was a shithead kid in junior high, but I think we all kind of were at that age.

Ragnarok314159 ,

I am a power grid engineer and we are quoting multiple solar systems with BESS capabilities a month for Texas. It’s not all diesel.

Ragnarok314159 ,

And it’s not like public transportation (at least here in the USA) is worth a shit, it’s an option of last resort.

It would take me three hours to get to my job using a bus due to the routes. To get home even longer because the buses stop running and I would have to ride my bike at sunset.

Ragnarok314159 ,

Also most of these people in management roles seldom are the ones doing anything. A lot of them are either HR MBA type people, or sales. They don’t know anything of how a company actually works, what the jobs entail, or how to run a company.

Usually these companies all run in spite of them doing their best efforts to make it run as awful as possible.

Ragnarok314159 ,

Also that the HR and management folks are the real useful people in a company.

Ragnarok314159 ,

What happened at my last job. The absolute moron head of HR told the engineers with 5-20 years experience how “we are all lucky to have jobs, and we would be flipping burgers at McDonalds if it were not for him”.

Most of us left, he didn’t even give us counter offer and said how we will all be begging him for our jobs back. He was dismissed by the Japanese management a few months later and told to never return.

Watching S7 and 8 is a fate worse than a life sentence.

Ragnarok314159 ,

I was convinced to play Pacific Drive, where the land attacks your car. There are many good hazards in that game to help slow people down. The random columns rising from the ground might do the trick, and help get bad drivers off the road.

Ragnarok314159 ,

It really is. I just got to the mid game and the environment went nuts. It’s fun.

Ragnarok314159 ,

But don’t you see, unless there is one magical silver bullet solution that fixes everything then it’s all worthless and we should go back to dumping CFC’s into the atmosphere.

Ragnarok314159 ,

Most of us see that as a perk. “Wait, I can die right now, painlessly? Like totally painless? Where do I sign up?”

Ragnarok314159 ,

I knew I had to have the talk about men when my girls turned nine. They were playing basketball and one of the dads made a comment about a girl and said “she is going to grow up and look like Mia Kalif (I don’t know how to spell her name, the porn star) and be a hot piece of ass.”

Oh, yeah…you mean that nine year old? The fuck is wrong with you.

Ragnarok314159 ,

Unless you are Lady Gaga in a meat dress.

“…for the first time in history, we can blame the attack on how someone was dressed.”

Ragnarok314159 ,

I was in the smoky mountains with my kids camping, and we heard a bear digging around. My kids started crying, they for sure knew they were dead.

I got out of the tent, stomped my feet so the bear heard me and wasn’t startled, and then went “boogaaboogaaa” and raised my arms. Poor little black bear went running off and kept looking back.

And my kids had a really cool story about when their dad chased away a giant scary bear.

Ragnarok314159 ,

Because a nice bear is going to ask for consent, and might snuggle you and…wait. What kind of bear are we talking about?

Ragnarok314159 ,

The two hour long ads that try to act like they match the title of the video are horrible.

Ragnarok314159 ,

Elon isn’t the one reason. Tesla stock skyrocketed in value the moment Bill Gates and other hedge funds announced they are shorting the stock.

Other hedge funds decided “I will take that bet” and here we are.

Ragnarok314159 ,

It’s because of the massive short term gains.

I made several thousand dollars in the stock market by buying stocks that announce layoffs. They almost always jump after the announcement unless it has to do with other circumstances like bankruptcy.

Ragnarok314159 ,

My only issue is with Congress telling us all “you have not seen what we have seen, you have not been in the classified briefings”. Yeah, I heard the same shit about WMD’s in Iraq where two of my battle buddies died, two more got wounded beyond any recovery, and a bunch more chose to end their lives after we got home.

“Trust us, bro”. Nah, fuck you. You want the world to support this, you need to share the information.

Ragnarok314159 ,

Want to back you up on a point. People have been copy/pasting, or adding fluff like a high school paper, to AP articles since its inception. This was happening well before the earliest days of the internet.

Ragnarok314159 ,

I got a huge strike, which eventually led to me being account banned from Reddit (seven year account, 600k karma) for calling out Israel for the pogrom against the Palestine people. Reddit is really trash now, most of the reference questions are 2+ years old.

It’s in a necrotic state of rot right now.

Ragnarok314159 ,

She probably had to wash a few dishes at the summer home. Could you imagine?

The horror…the horror…

Ragnarok314159 ,

GWAR about to serve 800 life sentences.

Ragnarok314159 ,

You don’t turn the phone off, you leave it at home. Unless you are removing the battery, the phone is not completely off.

Ragnarok314159 ,

I guess including gym fees, I am about that much. But they all get used. If the guy in the video was utilizing $1500/mo in subs and they made his life better, then go for it.

Ragnarok314159 ,

I will drift off into a 1000 yard stare, sometimes from my deployments, other times wondering where the hell my life went, other times trying to figure out why my kids want to watch the same episode of Bluey for the 416th time.

Really hoping I never did it in the direction of someone and made them feel this way. Makes me want to go out in public even less, I hate bothering people.

Ragnarok314159 ,

This usually happens at night. When the sun comes back up, try it again.
