I find it hard to grasp how these folks just don't seem to notice what a grifter Trump actually is.
Nobody with a moral backbone could ever do half the stuff Trump did before, during, and after his presidency.
What?! You mean to tell me that cutting funding to various public services and cutting taxes for the rich did nothing to help the general public?!
Next thing you'll be telling me is that trickle-down economics is a load of shite
(/s for anyone who needed it)
It continues to astound me this has to be stated as a political position, as though objecting to Israel committing mass genocide against Palestinians somehow makes you an antisemite.
Mass killing of innocent people is always wrong, no matter who is doing it.
"The economy" these days is just a nickname for the rich man's game - the stocks, shares, and speculation that have nothing to do with the average person's lived experience.
The average person could be near-destitute, but because the rich man's numbers are going up, tHe EcOnOmY iS dOiNg JuSt FiNe!
Exactly.
People think they're rich when they've won the lottery, and sure they are compared to the average person, but they're just a fly on the wall in comparison to the ultra-wealthy.
I simply don't believe one can become that wealthy by any honest means - you can't work to get that wealthy, you can't win to become that wealthy, hell there are plenty of entire countries with less money than some of the ultra-wealthy.
The fact that these people can play around with such an unimaginably absurd amount of wealth while so many more struggle, their wildest dreams but a fragment of a fragment of a fragment of what these people have, I find to be absurd.
Just deleted the duplicate, thanks for the heads up
But that's it. That cognitive dissonance is just part of the veil, same as the meme above.
The poor folks who get absorbed by the veil think they're a shoe-in to the rich, when they couldn't be further away - they'd have better chances of being picked to go to space than becoming part of the ultra-wealthy.
It's such a laughably weak veil the rich pull over people's eyes I'm surprised more folks don't figure this out.
It's sickening to watch the rich people play their game with no care in the world whilst the working families are struggling just to feed their themselves.

So their punishment to other countries for recognising Palestine is to intensify their Palestinian genocide?
How can anyone see this and not realise that this whole thing was never about Hamas, they were just an excuse to finally get the ball rolling.
Anyone who icks over their partner having a little bit of harmless, dumb fun doesn't deserve their partner IMO
Took me a minute, but it actually isn't that bad. The size of the last two sections represent the additional % on top of the previous...
Having said that, there must've been a better, less confusing way to represent this data
Isn't this the same old "ThE eCoNoMy Is DoInG gReAt, WhY aRe YoU cOmPlAiNiNg?" BS as always?
The average person doesn't care how well the rich people's game is going if they're struggling to afford their groceries because of said rich people's game.
The mainstream consoles nowadays basically are locked-down computers anyway, so makes sense that people are skipping the live-services middleman and going straight to PC
Unless you care about exclusives, then PCs are the better all-rounder IMO, and don't need a yearly payment on top of your internet bill
I was just surprised to see el cheapo in the wild - though for a cheap backpack it's surprisingly durable, out-lasted some of my nicer packs haha
Jafar my guy, just order the Sultan to make gay marriage legal than order him to marry you - problem solved without being just shy of a pedo.
Whelp, we're one step ever closer to terminators. Just gotta let Boston Dynamics cook now
Sorry to derail, but what a coincidence, I think I might have that very same cross-body bag
This reads like something a Sovereign citizen would write.
The first amendment allows you to say whatever you want without threat of arrest, but it doesn't give carte blanche to do whatever you want whilst saying it.
If you're on private property after closing time to the public, then you're trespassing, regardless of why you're there.
The threat of arrest is something you have to accept if you're going to protest in a disruptive way - the ones you're protesting against will do anything they legally can to get you to stop.
It always sucks to know you paid more than the seller did - but that just means Oxfam undervalued the book.
Having worked in one, charity shops tend to have a habit of either really undervaluing or overvaluing their donated goods - cause the people who actually set the prices mostly just guess based on looks and nothing more. Only if an item looks expensive will they do any research, and even then never really enough.
Exactly. The big problem with LLMs is that they're so good at mimicking understanding that people forget that they don't actually have understanding of anything beyond language itself.
The thing they excel at, and should be used for, is exactly what you say - a natural language interface between humans and software.
Like in your example, an LLM doesn't know what a cat is, but it knows what words describe a cat based on training data - and for a search engine, that's all you need.
