What brand of knife is it?

You just need to use a little brain, that’s all, no brainwashing needed.

> "Russia is insignificant infinitely small nothing. It's economy is less than economy of Texas!"

It is insignificant on a large scale war against united West, short of using nukes. At the same time it doesn’t mean they can’t terrorize Europe for decades or slowly chip it bit by bit.

Think of it as a delinquent, poor neighbor constantly throwing shit to your back porch, and alternating between threatening you with a knife and a grenade (nuke). Constantly trying to bride, and recruit citizens of your home for its goals.

> Putin and russians are controlling all the world. They bought every world leader, everyone from Trump to Xi is controlled by them! Anything bad that happens in the world from USA to Africa is directly staged by Russia!

I don’t think anyone in their right mind thinks that Xi is bought by Russia. On the contrary, it is widely believed that modern Russia is China’s vassal.


> Jacob Andreou, who leads product development of the unified Copilot app, told the audience of corporate customers on Wednesday. Importing some user experience features from the consumer app “made Copilot so much better in just the last few months,” he said.

Yeah, it’s shit lol.


> and you look cooler too

Did you watch too many Marlboro ads? Smokers look like bozo either way.


nah, as it usually goes it's become cool again with the youth because its rare, risky, and their parents hate it

All while sparing the rest of us from inhaling your cancer cloud. Win-win for everyone!

What are you fucking twelve? Just put the cigarette down.

Yes, I am twelve, and so are the people that sold the cigarettes and profit from them.

If we won’t tax the bots for UBI, at least we can still have smoker-subsidized school lunches.


No, it’s not fine.

> Apparently most readers have read too much AI output

You’re giving them too much credit.


> What we are seeing here is a Luddite reaction from artisans. A skill has been automated and those that have the skill are not happy about it.

Seriously? Expecting basic school literacy is now being a Luddite? What else? Writing by hand is an ancient craft resorted to philosophers long gone?

I swear this AI polarization turns off brain on both sides.


You're saying writing by hand is not impractical and mostly obsolete?

Not the person you're addressing, but writing by hand remains a very valuable tool. It's eminently practical and far from obsolete. [1]

[1] "There's actually some very important things going on during the embodied experience of writing by hand," says Ramesh Balasubramaniam, a neuroscientist at the University of California, Merced. "It has important cognitive benefits."

For which purpose?

You may think this is silly, but you actually think more when you write by hand than when you type on a computer, and especially more than when you just listen. When attending a lecture you should write notes on paper even if you just throw them away.
