Reply to comment by maskedpaki in Futurology CMV - We are probably never going to see the changes envisioned by AI enthusiasts. by dja_ra

Because AI doesn't exist yet. These machines are not "smart" ,they mimic speech based on probability and patterns found on the web. The whole point of this post was to ask if anyone knew of peer reviewed scientific evidence that we will ever break through to AI, and all the other things that people think will come from that.

Reply to [26M] [24F] she was only dating me for sex and I feel kinda disgusted by throwRA283108

Sounds like you just want to blame her for your incompatibility and then act like a child when we tell you she’s not the problem. She was honest with you right from the beginning. It was you who wasn’t. You knew deep down what you wanted and decided to go for her anyway.

Reply to People who aren't open to watching anime, why? by Thx-rese

I don't care much for the stylization. The nosebleeds, faceplants, drooling, dramatic screaming, smirking, and casual pedophilia just don't appeal to me. Obviously not all anime is like this, but I don't feel any motivation to filter them out. Ghost in the Shell was cool though.

Not really ? The only way Ukraine would never be able to pay that back is if Russia goes gomme mode and nukes their way to Kyiv.

In which case, we have other issues.

Sounds like a recess episode where they have all the local kids steal hoses and run them to the park. Then the kids have to return all the hoses and sell lemonade to pay for the water while everyone else swims in the park for a day.

At Walmart. Look for the shorts, T shirt, flip flops, and no makeup.

FS CyberPower CP1500PFCLCD UPS battery backup.

Brand new in Box. Only opened long enough to determine it doesn’t fit where I need it to. I bought it on Amazon and forgot to check the dimensions, and they won’t take back UPSs.

Here is the amazon listing for reference:

Currently on amazon at 220, yours for 180.

Professional procrastinator here. I was wondering. If I do this long enough and hard enough, does it come full circle and I eventually end up procrastinating procrastination and cancel it?
