They really think of power as a prize, not a role or responsibility

That’s what Miller is going to spend the next couple of years blocking.

He gets to stop El Sayed or anyone progressive from trying to manipulate him for anything good.

“Professional Poker Player”

Also

“Decimator of arguments”

“Human encyclopaedia”

“Comedian”

“TV Presenter”

“Only person who has survived living with David Mitchell”

He feels entitled to us having to rent our lives from him.

Presumably as a reward for him being just so amazing.

Never trust a new item, for sure. Jeans especially.

Is this based on a real episode?! It’s amazing.

It’s that “greater precision” part that is hard to ensure.

If someone is checking their work with AI or thoroughly checking the work after, great.

But it’s a hard difference to teach

Mine just threw up a cheese wrapper.

Maybe he’s just building up to the French flag.

He’s also not blind, just very arthiritic. So maybe it’s something he needs to mature into.

And we know which one the fediverse users chose…

Some streaming services only offer translation subtitles related to the primary language of where you are.

So if I’m in Germany and want to watch a Swedish crime drama all i can get are German subs.

But if i use a vpn to say I’m in England… the English subs are magically available.

(Provided they also have the license to play the show in England).

I just don’t believe that they will stop trying to track me, no matter how much i pay.

In fact, the more i pay, the more valuable i am.

Because the details of a rich sucker are very high value.

So you’re telling me…

He’s been here the whole time?

You’re absolutely right to push back on that.

I look forward to carrying a wrench-bearing dog-robot into my crawlspace.

Or hearing:

“You’re absolutely right to push back on that, i did connect the water main to the fusebox”

Dell-ee-siooze

But with a lot of energy

I was only staying there for Furious. That’s probably it for me.

It may be just how normalised it is for English speakers to hear people speaking English imperfectly.

There’s no shame or judgement in it. But when you find whimsy, oh boy.

I still say “delicious” in the way my Greek coworker did almost a decade ago, because it sounds better

And my dog trainer called my dog’s arse his anoos one time and now that’s all we call it. Talking about mine? Arse. The dog’s? Anoos.

Yeah there’s plenty he does wrong without pretending he’s still got enough core strength to lean forward quickly and not fall over.

The most he can do is poke Zelenskyy’s arm over and over when he wants him to stop talking.

If you start today with a new email, it will take a while but every service/person you switch is one more that isn’t training AI.

It can be a win where you get back what you put in. It can literally just be your top three contacts and make a difference.
