Funny how this is a Twitter post as half of all satellites orbiting earth (5581 out of 11300) are owned by Musk.

Everybody forgot that chatGPT-2 was just a bullshitting machine. Version 3 to the surprise of the developers very useful to many people while they just made a highly trained bullshitting machine.

ChatGPT hallucinates less than Trump.

That's not the only reason why flying cars haven't arrived. Getting a license to fly is about the price of a new car. Bad weather is no flying. Air Traffic Control can't handle thousands of commuters. Flying cars are pretty big so parking is going to be even more of an issue.

It's why you keep calling the early bird people at 8pm for work stuff and giving them shit for not working late until they get the message that them calling you at 8am is just as annoying.

It's biology. When winter comes and we switch daylight saving times again, I wake up an hour earlier according to the clock while walking up at the same sun time the entire year.

Republicans blocked Biden's previous attempt to raise the minimum wage so not a lot of use to try again unless there is some more pressure.

It always reminds me of those certificates for owning a piece of the moon.

This is the same in more places and more jobs: Schools, hospitals, nursing homes, ...

Workers: we need more budget to attract new people. We're already stretched too thin as it is

Boss: I'm cutting the budget to save on costs. If you don't like it then quit.

Workers: That was the straw that broke the camel's back. Here's my notice. I quit.

Boss: You can't do that! Now I'm in trouble!

I don't recall what movie, but it did really bad at the box office and of course they blamed piracy. Until somebody got a hold of the statistics and showed it was one of the least pirated movie releases ever.

Okay. Each sub gets fresh points according to it's size, activity and admin preference.

Every month your karma in a sub gets converted into these new points. These points can then be used to tip others, buy animated emojis or badges to show off. They are also used to make your vote count more in polls.

Mods can give commenters fines for misbehaving and make posts earn less points.

Sounds very capitalist. I guess it makes everybody go to a few big subs, as little subs don't earn anything. And those big subs are overrun by a few big players who floated to the top and stay there because of their influence. Little subs get overrun by alt-right as the fines mods can give there are just pocket money.

But that's what you get when ideology and dictators rule.

YYYY-MM-DD for everything. My PC clock, my phone and even my handwritten notes all use that format.

The only other acceptable format is military notation: DD MMM YYYY.
