In win11 some of the control panel links now only open the equivalent page in the settings app, despite the fact that they don’t have feature parity yet. The work around is to type the panel name in the file path bar manually if you want to adjust one of the missing settings. I mention this not because I think people here will want to know it, but because it gives y’all another reason to be glad to have moved off of Windows.

Look, I’m not saying that Vance has been poisoning Trump to take over, I’m just saying we all know he’s capable of it. Of course we should wait till the investigation into Vance reports their findings before jumping to conclusions, but come on, everyone knows it’s entirely plausible.

If all 6 got the same answer multiple times, then that means that your query very strongly correlated with that reply in the training data used by all of them. Does that mean it’s therefore correct? Well, no. It could mean that there were a bunch of incorrect examples of your query they used to come up with that answer. It could mean that the examples it’s working from seem to follow a pattern that your problem fits into, but the correct answer doesn’t actually fit that seemingly obvious pattern. And yes, there’s a decent chance it could actually be correct. The problem is that the only way to eliminate those other still also likely possibilities is to actually do the problem, at which point asking the LLM accomplished nothing.

They were specifically invented to clean ears, but we now know it’s not safe to use them to clean ears. So we added a warning on the package about the danger of using them to clean ears, and continued to sell them to people, most of whom who are definitely still going to use them to clean their ears. Why? Because, aside from the inherent danger of permanent hearing damage, they really are an effective tool for the job.

“They’ve been saying so many bad things about him for decades, and nothing stuck. He says he’s innocent, so who should I believe, the man I trust, or the lying media and the deep state? They just have it out for him because he tells it like he sees it.” You can point out all the inconsistencies in what Trump says, but they’ve tuned out already. They already know what they need to about him, or they just aren’t detail people at all. Some are so far gone, they think, “He’s a good person, therefore whatever it was he did was a good thing.”

A lot of it isn’t new, or is new but wasn’t published because it was redundant at the time. Everyone who wasn’t wearing blinders already knew Trump is a pedo creep who was best friends with Epstein. Now, finally, thanks to Trump’s broken promise on releasing “the Epstein files,” those blinders are off, or at least weakened and so it’s actually worthwhile to put this stuff out there again. Framing it like it’s some new revelation will get some of the people who ignored it before to maybe consider it this time around.

I thought mayor was a partisan position in every US city. If fact, in the US every elected position is effectively a partisan position, even the rare ones that officially aren’t.

Thanks for reminding me, I’ve been meaning to do this. I’m doing random text edit of them all now. I’ll go back later and have it edit my top comments to a nice site-ban-worthy message.

Took me a bit to realize, but that’s a facepalm gesture.

Yeah, this really depends on what you meant by winning here. Are we actually changing the other person’s mind or do they admit we are right, but still believe otherwise? Are people who witness the argument included? Do people continue to agree indefinitely? Does it change reality to match?

Quick! Somebody call Trump’s attention to what happened. That petty bastard would ram new investigations through ASAP.
