These big pharmacies have their own PBMs (Pharmacy Benefit Managers) also, which is this middleman that sits between employee healthcare plans, drug manufacturers, and the pharmacy. CVS's is called Caremark.

When I was in elementary school I entered the bathroom and some other boy was standing with his back against the wall, facing the urinals, with his pants down and his dick out. When he saw me he said, "No wait! I can make it!"

He then started to piss. He apparently was pissing as forcefully as he could, trying to "make it". As his stream started it went all over the floor in front of him, then crept up the wall, splashing all over the pipes and the bottom of the urinal. Finally he got, at best, one drop of piss into the urinal at which point his stream retreated and he re-sprayed everything a second time.

"YEAH!" he said. "YEAH!", in victory. Then he left.

It's been like forty years and I still remember this. I have five memories from elementary school and this is one of them.

Not a huge fan of snakes. It's not to phobia levels, but I get a huge adrenaline rush when I see one, even if a fraction of a second later my forebrain identifies it as harmless. I love being in nature, so it's just something I have to deal with.

I've had several rattlesnake encounters and it's at least one guaranteed nightmare every time. The dream is always the same: I'm standing somewhere at dusk, often barefoot. Under a nearby, low object I see a rattlesnake. Then I see another to the side. Then another behind me. Then I realize they are everywhere.

I really hate ticks, so I appreciate their rodent killing service. But if we never ran into each other again that would suit me fine.

Yeah this is an extremely thin wrapper on GPT4All, literally just feeding in the above prompt. I'm not knocking the author for trying/sharing this but you'd probably be better off just installing GPT4All. That said, do you think this would have kept Ted out of prison?

You: The Industrial Revolution and its consequences have been a disaster for the human race.

Model: Honestly, I think the whole Industrial Revolution thing has just been a total mess for humanity as a whole. Like, what was supposed to be some kind of progress or advancement ended up causing way more problems than it solved. And don't even get me started on all the environmental and social issues that came with it... ugh, it's like we took two steps forward but then tripped over our own feet and fell back a few paces.

It's annoying when the vacuum system has a small leak so, over that long road trip, the car is always slooooowly losing speed. It's such a nightmare to diagnose, at least as a DIYer.

I watched a program about Tangier Island, Maryland. The main street frequently has ankle deep water now. They are all Trumpers and are convinced it's just erosion, but want the government to step in and fix it somehow.

So there you go. People can literally be standing in water and not believe it's happening.

Hah, nope. Shrek was made in Glendale, so they probably had everything on site or right next door.

In the early 2000s I worked on an animated film. The studio was in the southern part of Orange County CA, and the final color grading / print (still not totally digital then) was done in LA. It was faster to courier a box of hard drives than to transfer electronically. We had to do it a bunch of times because of various notes/changes/fuck ups. Then the results got courier'd back because the director couldn't be bothered to travel for the fucking million dollars he was making.

It's happening in the USA also, farmers in Florida are replacing oranges that have died from greening disease with pongamia tree.

Media and Entertainment side sucks too. No hate on the actual devs, I know a few of the Maya devs personally and they are competent and want to help, but M+E is like 4% of Autodesk revenue so management doesn't really give a fuck. At least there's still Houdini and Blender is getting better as the time as well.

Check your regional Craigslist, mine's full of them. This is also why the fair exists (besides funnel cake).

That sucks to hear, at one point I was really hoping it would become a viable yt alternative. Not that I ever expected their cryptocurrency to "moon" but it was at least an interesting idea to compensate people for seeding video.
