In America, you can’t open a bank account without an address. That means that the homeless population can’t open a bank account (not easily, anyway), and therefore can’t get a debit card.

Cashless is a nice idea, but it is extremely prohibitive against the most vulnerable people (which, sadly, might be part of the point).

I think the headline writer got confused about all the zeroes

He said $30,000 for the cybertruck too. $30,000 just seems to be his “I don’t really know the price” price.

First of all, you make a great point.

Second of all, that quote made me laugh out loud. “In 15 words”? Why is that even there? I saw Sam sitting there with Word open, cursor blinking at the end of his sentence about how deep learning worked, wondering how to make it more impactful. So he copies the sentence and pastes it into a chatgpt box and asks, “how can I make this hit differently?” and chatgpt, in all it’s gptness, responds: “try counting the number of words in the sentence and throwing that in front.”

That’s great! Everyone was joking about the doors falling off of Starliner, but I still find it unbelievable that these poor people are actually stuck for 8 months.

I’m curious, what’s the food and water situation like for these astronauts?

It’s a paraphrased quote from Richard Feynman

If you can’t explain a difficult concept in a simple way, then you don’t truly understand it.

I’m with Bernie on this, but the juxtaposition was funny

Toddler is missing a finger.

Maybe AI thinks humans would be better off as a species if we didn’t have 5 fingers

If it changes the “entire world”, I would very much prefer it not to change the world for the worse, but that’s the current trend.

The connection from Assange to Russia was laid out in the OP. Russia had a vested interest in skewing and interfering with US politics in 2016.

There’s the relevancy you failed to see.

Except it’s the exact same thing Russia pulled in 2016.

I use YouTube Music and it’s pretty good, but the best feature is no more youtube ads.
