Israel and the U.S. are starving Palestinian babies in Gaza to death.

Imagine if this were on the front page of the NYT or WaPo for a week straight.

Biden would be forced to stop arms transfers to Israel.

The media is complicit in genocide.

Governments don’t work for the people, they work for Corporations and Big Money

the most glaring example is the USA, the money goes to wars abroad while own people die abandoned on the streets.

Steve Martin is a comic genius. A #Quote... 

Steve Martin recalls reading a treatise on comedy that led him to think:

" What if there were no punch lines? What if there were no indicators? What if I created tension and never released it? What if I headed for a climax, but all I delivered was an anticlimax? What would the audience do with all that tension? Theoretically, it would have to come out sometime. But if I kept denying them the formality of a punch line, the audience would eventually pick their own place to laugh, essentially out of desperation.[21]"

----------------------------------

Martin periodically spoofed his philosophy studies in his 1970s stand-up act, comparing philosophy with studying geology.

"If you're studying geology, which is all facts, as soon as you get out of school you forget it all, but philosophy you remember just enough to screw you up for the rest of your life.[22]"

@CSB @silas son, it can do everything mentioned with the exception of reasonable coding.
And keep those ad hominem stuff for the time when you'll hind a friend

I could go and help it, and go on and on in an endless fight against poor #design but that's what I did for almost 10 years and I've never seen anything ending up in a genuine satisfying way, except for a few cases: #Blender, #Inkscape and #Thunderbird. I am just tired and prefer to do some tinkering now.

I'm tired of hearing about AI, to be honest. I never cared for it. I don't respect people who use generative AI, and I despise companies that sell out people's data to train it. Yes, people will lose jobs to it, but the world will not be better for it. It's just that consequences are rarely immediately apparent in such complex systems.

"These refusals come at a huge cost to individual researchers. Visa applications require scientists to be studious with paperwork, commit often large sums of money and make several trips to embassies that are sometimes outside their home country. My experience left me feeling demoralized, embarrassed and insulted by the implication that I and people like me couldn’t be trusted to attend a conference without outstaying our welcome."

Your Story is Your Glory... 

"Your Story is Your Glory"

Just for title of video I haven't see yet...

The title says to me "It's the road you chose, and you recognise you are the one travelling it, with whatever comes, as it's own testimony and evidence to itself in the end.

AI = AI + THE POWERFUL HUMANS BEHIND IT (not just AI on it's own)... 

Remember it is not just AI, it's the powerful behind it with their plans.

AI = [AI + THE POWERFUL HUMANS BEHIND IT]

AI is a tactically driven by those that have huge resources and wealth behind it for almost certainly getting them more [which is unhealthy greed] more power, more money, more respect?

It's not just AI on it's own, it's not just a hammer made.... people are using it beyond what we can see happening and have plan we don't see until it's too late or yers later understand what happened...

Slow Cooking = Better Learning - Fast and Furious can be inconsiderate and make more mistakes... 

Slow cooking between learners, rather than fast and furious...

Slow Cooking between People = Better Learning
Harmony is *while* talking even if in disagreement. Shorter Time does not help this.

Solutions and Answers take Time.

Give more time and space regularly and see the talking, chances, opportunity increase...

Expect it in 15mins or just 2 sentences in a text box and you might as well jump into the fire of misunderstanding forever in a loop :nes_fire: 🔄 :nes_fire:

The longer chain of thought over time wins (and includes shorter ones) BUT IMPORTANTLY: DOES NOT CUT OUT TAKING MORE TIME AND CARE FOR THOUGHTS AND PEOPLE.

For anyone who is interested, I found a website that is supposed to allow you to check and see if an instance is blocked and by who.

The site is fba.ryona.agency/

Figured it might serve as an interesting tool for the Moderators.

Slow cooking is usually better than fast cooking... (same with many things) 

Slow cooking is usually better than fast cooking.

Slow speaking is usually better than fast speaking (unless you really know each other or can match speed).

Similarly careful understanding instead of faster / uneducated style of thinking buying.

Actually the fast way to go wrong is often fast cook / speak / quick-understand something p

I say this as Fediverse people almost only want to do fast (short) text messages and fast-fuck type solutions and then complain for example when it's not what they wanted (and never stated or left ambiguous or get paranoid by someone genuinely excited by what they wrong)...

Fast, bad work.... plenty of it in relationships... Strangers (both people) need time relax a bit...

Simple thankful video during tough times someone is having, God mentioned, but generally I like the integrity of this kind of video from time to time from non-popular people... 

Thankful video during tough times, God mentioned and some reading...

yt.cdaut.de/watch?v=CqhSN3wm-1

I'm still figuring out some of what I like about this to put into words but I know that:

● going inside and saying it like this has something special about it regardless of God, it's like the integrity of it and integral purification / check
● and then outward grace to others seems to magnify that...

Again welcome your view and comments. It's not just a God thing, maybe:

● simple humbleness and
●goodwill

It's just a guy talking about being grateful and pushing on through life despite challenges by others.

Having some faith can be strangely a bit of a problem or distraction for me (having faith in something you can't see) but everything else is less confusing
● wishing peace
● trying to find a way

I also like how he has his own line and way, not getting too distracted with what others are doing (or doing to him) so it's controlled somewhat. Hard to focus on one's self if the rest of the world is falling apart or seemingly designed against you...

but anyway see what you think of it...
