That's a looking-at sofa, not a sitting sofa. If you're rich enough you get to buy god-awful tacky furniture you'll never use.

Exceptions disprove your blanket statement.

So we can use Trump's own anti-DEI bullshit to kill off LLMs now?

its just hard to understand how something so stupid can be said

It's especially funny when you read OP's profile bio:

Nowadays everybody wants to talk like they got something to say but nothing comes out when they move their lips just a bunch of gibberish.

As soon as someone comes up with a clear-cut example of science that you can't pervert, you call them a troll and move on. Typical of a sealion who claims they want to discuss but actually just wants to beat someone with their opinion, just like in your other thread where you try and cram religion into morality.

That doesn't suggest that at all. Correlation does not equal causation.

You're agreeing on the order. The difference is he's trying to stuff his religious beliefs into a process that doesn't need it.

Maybe you can make a list of all the nice things in that bill for us.

The projected decline is driven by an estimated 20 percent drop in Canadian visitors through 2025

This is not enough. Why are Canadians still visiting the US?!

This CBC article states:

Global Affairs Canada said it's aware of roughly 55 Canadians in U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement custody, though it said that the numbers can fluctuate.

Fifty five kidnapped Canadians. There's no travel warning on the government's site, and people are still crossing the border. Are they not paying attention? The Canadian government sure isn't helping get the word out.

It won but it was not the best browser. It was slower, and never fully met web standards. Many sites had to write different formatting code for IE specifically. It was a nightmare from the back end.

This is absolutely a case of getting in, killing the competition, then jacking the price and tanking the quality.

And because it's a service, despite using it for years and paying all that money into it, as soon as you leave you have nothing. All those games are just gone.

 

American food safety checks have nearly stopped now that the FDA has been cut so bad|y. They can't even follow up on investigating reports anymore.

Why are we importing and allowing dangerous foods to be sold here?

If you think things are bad now, then, brace yourself: it is about to get a whole lot worse. If you are alarmed at the speed with which the Trump administration has set about dismantling every institution of American government and every pillar of the international order, you must understand that this is not just the initial burst of activity, the “shock and awe” phase after which things will settle down: if anything, the pace will continue to accelerate.

The world has never before been faced with such a threat. The United States has handed the nuclear codes to a madman, a criminal, a would-be dictator and a moron, all in the same person. Whatever the purpose to which he directs these powers – to impress his dictator friends, to further enrich himself and his cronies, to seize absolute power or just to watch the world burn – we must hope for the best, but prepare for the worst.

 

What last name do you think is neat? It could sound cool, have an interesting meaning or history, etc.
