Who’s there?

Lettuce

Lettuce who?

Lettuce in and you’ll find out!

Why didn’t the skeleton go to the dance?

Because it didn’t have any body to go with

Why not, though? What’s stopping anything from being implemented?

Have you read Project 2025? Your country will literally have a government that can implement all of this without resistance. If a group of people had enough fervour to write such a document, do you honestly think that with all this power they wouldn’t implement anything from it?

On top of that, while the US pulls into itself and has a less global presence, it’s going to affect the global economy very negatively as the balance of power shifts. With DT at the helm, the balance of power will tip towards China being the next biggest economy.

Anyway, you may not notice a big change unless you’re wealthy. Under DT, the poor stay poor but the rich get richer.

Unfortunately, our local council doesn’t allow having roosters because of the crowing. Hens only.

Been trying for 6 years. Not desperately, but it would be nice. Thinking about getting chickens.

Did anyone watch Liquid Television?

For the drum machine, definitely! But we largely kept to our tempo or maybe double. It was a free gig and we were getting paid in beers. I think it was pretty funny for the audience too. Great night.

I used to sing in a post punk band. We had a drum machine. In the middle of one gig, the drum machine spazzed out and deleted all the internal memory, and started a 600bpm bossa nova loop. We played right through to the end.

Ignorance is strength

For me, it’s because AI is referring to a LLM, which is not AI. Also, these LLMs use a crap load of energy to do things that we can currently do ourselves for much less energy.

But actual AI? Yes, please!

Well, from where you’re standing, everyone’s a leftie.

Do you know where your local terrorist cell is hiding? Surely the Mossad can figure all that out without murdering civilians?

Also, pretty ironic of you to lump left wing nut jobs together as one group…

So, in your view, a car is more like an accessory than a mode of transport.

If that’s the case, then people with the new brains should have their sex organs harvested.

Well, when you invest $$$ into something that’s meant to be fun and it’s not fun, then there’s your problem. Why not invest in the game designers and scale down the graphics/fancy stuff and exec salaries?

Could be that is just simply faster for them to use the road.

Or driving with cars around you is more predictable that pedestrians? That’s the case for me, although I always use the bike lane where I can.

The US election system is set up for the rich and powerful to stay in charge. It’s ridiculous that there’s effectively only two parties, and it’s ridiculous that a single person, the president, holds so much power. No accountability. Their system needs an entire overhaul, IMO:

Compulsory voting Ease of access for voting Preferential voting Lower bar for running, meaning every citizen has the opportunity to run

There was this incident in my town a long time ago. I believe the cause was leaking gas bottles and having them unsecured caused sparks, which then resulted in the explosion.

So, secure those gas bottles well!!
