Whelp, anyone who took bets on him acting like a war hero over this can now go collect your winnings - which is just more listening to Trump unfortunately.

While it is dystopian that many people have to end up working beyond retirement age, I can see why some people choose to take on a "retirement job".

Our jobs are what we do for the majority of our time, for better or worse, so once you retire there's suddenly a purposeless void where work used to be. To keep your mind going and your body moving, you need to fill that void with things you want to do - but for a lot of people it's hard to do that sustainably, so after a few years they need something else, and for some people that's a "retirement job".

To be fair you could call this "search optimisation" and the people on Linkedin would eat this up

Because that's comparing oranges to apples.

In terms of pure image quality, real objects would win every time because they only have to be filtered by our eyes - digital images are filtered through the GPU and screen before ever reaching our eyes.

As such, the real contest is the ability of displays to make digital images look comparable to those real objects - because that's harder to do vs. ust looking at the real life object, it's more impressive to us.

Alright, looks like it's time for an extremely late term abortion

Seriously though, I'd have no idea what to do if I saw my kid doing that. Might as well use them to paint the walls

Why would a random dealership call the secretary of state, and even if they did why would they not have called the department of transport before that? That's like calling the CEO before calling the customer hotline

Well that kid's going to have a fun time as an adult when they realise the government basically doesn't know they exist

Makes you wonder how long it'll be until even the worst AI images are indistinguishable from human-produced images

Most Greentexts are, but it's often more fun to joke as though it were not

High-quality socks are a great gift, but these socks usually aren't that
