You leave them to do an assignment and they will be on a game in 10 seconds unless you keep on them.

Why even have games in them? If I am an entrepreneur, a school notepad or laptop without games is a good business idea…

It takes decades for innovative products, or seemingly useless ideas, to be commercially viable. That’s why the best response, when asked what is the purpose of doing research on seemingly useless topics, is to say “I don’t know, but I know it’s going to be taxed someday.”

People pay for subscription to ask AI?

So they know that AI is going to be unprofitable for near to medium term?

Me when I have anendophasia and don’t have internal monologue at every single waking moment.

It’s not neurotypical to be able make their inner voice shut up on a whim. I realise later in life that plenty of folks have inner voices in every waking moment, from picking up a can of coke to wanting to sit down. If do those things, I just do by instinct without an inner monologue. But when I do get an inner voice, it’s more like detached, if that makes sense. Or it is kinda like an interview where I am talking to another person. I tend to visualise my thoughts more than mentally verbalising it.

My anendophasia explains a lot why I can’t relate when someone says about silencing their inner voices. I get a confuddled face, before, everytime someone talks about. I don’t really get negative thoughts but when if I do, I imagine the thoughts flowing away. I’ve been doing that before I heard that therapist recommend this technique called “flowing river”, imagining thoughts away like a river flowing away.

If they can’t be persuaded by talking to them softly, beat them with a big stick.

They’re obviously doing this for PR. As soon as Trump declared Liberation Day, I knew China would use the opportunity to present themselves as the better trading partner. I have seen a recent survey of Europeans saying they trust China more than the US.

But yeah, as recently revealed, the CIA has uncovered a plot by China to sit back, relax and watch the USA destroy itself.

It reminds me of Northern Europeans stereotyping Southern Europeans as lazy. But Northern European don’t realise it is mainly because Southern Europe is very hot to work for longer hours. The Southern European “siesta” of course carried over to Spanish and Portuguese colonies. Before Cuba gained independence from Spain, they only work three hours a day, and this happened only about one hundred years ago.

As far as I can tell, they are genuinely good folks who use money and influence to do good. After taking ownership of Casa Bonita, during the renovation period that followed, they said that they will still pay the existing employees, but only if those employees do charity work while the place is being renovated. Mat and Trey make money but they don’t seem hungry for more. They also renewed a deal with Paramount; but when CBS tried to cancel Colbert so that the duo’s parent company, Skydance, will have the Trump admin approve the merger with CBS, Mat and Trey unabashedly criticised their company without fear of cancellation and despite having just signed a renewed contract. They were not punished nonetheless and if even if there have been, I believe they will stick to their guns.

On occasions I have done overtime or feel under pressure due to work, I do feel my heart palpitating. But I am lucky I immigrated to a country where the work culture is more relaxed compared to others. Had I gone to another country, I might have ended up the same as the guy in the article.

I’ve yet to see any negative headlines about Mamdani ever since hr won election

Seeing the tankies talk about him on .ml would make you think he was leading the 4the Reich.

Well yeah, it depends exactly what kind of social bubble you are in. If you are in a right wing bubble, you would be led to believe that Mamdani is a woke Muslim terrorist commie.

As a Batman fan, it just occurred to me that I really hope Netflix won’t ruin the IP if they get the chance to buy WB.

So the real investment from Tesla is the company stealing from government resources!!

The heads

Funny enough, despite the ugly aesthetics, there is a great sense of community in social housing.

Release a new Splinter Cell game!

Me: Fuck! Has it been that long??!!

Doctor: I’m afraid it’s been ten years.

So that explains why some entries on companies don’t mention about their unscrupulous history.

That explains about my work laptop. I swear that I clicked shutdown before I went on two week Christmas holidays!
