no bagel run today b/c folks from New York and New Jersey visited with them. I shall endeavor to make a dent in some chaos in that window.

OK 2 astounding things in a day. I ***used a coupon*** (and one with a deadline) that got ten bucks off my bill at teh grocery store. (I tucked a dollar in the scratch off lottery but did not win.)

There is extremely ample evidence, even things they've said, that you are correct. We need to act accordingly.

@old_hippie @Nonilex True. The AI I'm remembering is from before DEI was a crime, at educational workshops.
(Even then, it wasn't *truly* diverse. Everybody in the group tried their prompts for it to tell a story and it did really well for stories about cats and food, but not for things that weren't white bred.)

@dianea @QasimRashid Fire suppression with toilet paper as the inventory, tho', is going to have special challenges.
I'm just pondering where that person's mind and heart have to be to do this, knowing they'll get caught. Did they just not care, or do they imagine they'll become a legend and a hero (and they might)?

@chu
That's my typical life.
It *is* worth saying "try it for a week" -- but adding: and *look for other ways to meet your needs,* as opposed to just postponing those activities.
HOWEVER, I'm in a University town. It's not an *anything* desert esp. since we're getting a lot of rain this week.I'm less than a mile from Common Ground Food Co-op so I can even get locally grown food.

@ferrix@mastodon.online @dansinker@omfg.town I am afraid that .... yes, it really is that awful. They are feeding a hunger (not a need; they could change their diets and get satisfied and oh, that's how my prayers are directed).

@mariyadelano Yes.
It works the other way too. THere's this reading software where when they've done all the levels, they automatically can't do anything any more. They *can't* say "I want to go practice the vocab. in level K and L."
I said to tech support it felt like an invasion of AI and they said that oh, no, they didn't use AI!!!!!
Okay, algoruthm abuse :( :(
