Oh wow, didn't realize the mod did this! Very cool

Looks cool but what is the purpose of this? There are no controls for setting temperature or pressure on this model, so isn't it kind of useless?

why don't manufacturers of basic cars just put a fancy-looking exterior onto them?

They do. This is exactly what Hyundai does for the Genesis brand.

I think it'll make a comeback eventually. LLMs will get progressively less useful as a replacement as its' training data stales. Without refreshed data it's going to be just as irrelevant as the years go on. Where will it get data about new programming languages or solutions to problems in new software? LLM knowledge will be stuck in 2025 unless new training material is given to it.

Dude Harvard didn't even stand up to defend their own president Claudine Gay when she needed their backing. They were dead silent during trumps first term when this same shit was going on. It's not just the money. They will literally sit on their asses and say nothing unless they are pushed.

Well done sir! I changed my air filter today, also an Audi.

100% agree. Why are people like this?

Ha wow, maybe it's just my area here in MA - it's rare to see half gallons at less than $3 nowadays.

Milk was $0.06. Six cents! I can't make out the units in the photo, I'll assume maybe a pint or half gallon. That is super cheap even adjusting for inflation. It would still only be $1.34 in 2024 dollars.

This is definitely worth a read and I very much hope the author's predictions come true, but I think it misses the mark in two big areas.

1. This article presumes these platforms will remain the same. In reality these companies will pull out all the stops to incentivize users to stay, and if that doesn't work they will just buy up and acquire the competition, wherever the users are. Look at what's happening with tiktok.

2. Some users - believe it or not - want a way to keep up with IRL friends and acquaintances. Instagram and Facebook provided a great way to do this (however less "great" nowadays). Still, I don't want to email or text every single person I know just to share a photo or a recent event. And honestly I also don't want every acquaintance I have sharing every detail of their lives over text or email or phone. Even with an alternative, we'd have to find and rebuild our personal networks all over again.

I think one lesson from history that we must never forget is that the appeasement of dictators never brings peace. It always leads to more aggression, more suffering, more wars, because dictators do not see compromise as an invitation to compromise back. They see it as a sign of weakness, and they become more aggressive.

Truth

I'd love to see this but her chances are likely worse than Harris. And that's assuming we have an honest election in '28.
