The 80s: clear your throat in too high of a pitch? Get followed to the bathroom and the shit kicked out of you.

Yikes

Throw in some creaking and cracking noises and you’ve got sheer horror.

The models that do that now are very capable but aren’t tuned properly IMO. They are overly flowery and sickly positive even when describing something plain. Prompting them to be more succinct only has them cut themselves off and leave out important things. But I can totally see that improving soon.

Saw a fishercat in an industrial area not far from a large swath of floodplain and high voltage transmission lines. So there was a lot of territory for it nearby. Looks like a tall badger. Apparently pretty rare. Was walking around 18 wheeler trucks in motion like it owned the place, peeking around the dumpsters most likely looking for the young raccoons that hang around.

I guess nobody can tell how big they are from photos. There’s never someone standing next to them for comparison.

Sure, they ‘know’ the context of a conversation but only by which words are most likely to come next in order to complete the conversation. That’s all they’re trained to do. Fancy vocabulary and always choosing the ‘best’ word makes them really good at appearing intelligent. Exactly like a Sales Rep who’s never used a product but knows all the buzzwords.

Sounds like mediocre BBQ sauce

Add my support too. Didn’t know how well known this brand was.

Going to go against the grain a bit here. Exercise and the other stuff mentioned here had the effect of making it stronger. However, everything changed when I dealt with my anxiety. You know how lowered sex drive is a “side effect” of many medications? It’s because the two are linked. Though I’m not advocating for medical treatment per se. Just keep in mind that there could be other factors going on.

Could someone do a dissertation about exactly that?

Also works with “crematorium”

VLC. Plays literally everything. Will try and play things that aren’t even media files. Sometimes succeeds.

And warm liquids!

It’s mostly from polyester and cotton/poly blends. They dredged the ocean floor and looked at the microplastics it dug up. Sourced it from clothing mostly.

If it’s a meme or shitpost there isn’t anything to talk about

Saw a study the other day that estimated that in 2021 about 45% of internet traffic was bots. Don’t believe every comment you read is someone who believes what they are saying either. There’s been a few cases of troll farms of people getting paid to push trash opinions. When an ideology can’t defend itself with reason they start screaching.
