The largest and most active voter block is the elderly, they do not want to piss them off.

Roe didn’t matter because the women who would vote for him largely had negative feelings about abortion.

The moon has colors, not just shades. A modern camera can adjust and capture what the moon actually looks like, unlike the cameras they had in the 60’s and 70s.

We can do this, the problem is interface.

Right now, there is the possibility to have AI create exactly what you imagine, if you can convey what it is you want and have the processing power available to generate the output.

Without a psychic magic wish type interface, we fall short of being able to say “Do the thing” and get what we want. It takes a novel worth of outline to create a worthwhile output that meets expectations.

That being said, I would probably create a false reality to escape into in order to cope with the realities of a meaningless and pointless existence that is wrought from the apathy inherent to prolonged misery from existential dread and the general state of things.

False: The point of a Chromecast is to connect to another device directly or via a network in order to make porn bigger.

If Russia is going to do Russian things, then Russian things will happen.

Historically Russia empire builds until they collapse due to poor policies, their territories separate, Russia economically rebounds, Russia then empire builds.

The best we can hope for is hold a line that they won’t cross and we can have diplomacy and cultural exchange that leads to a more progressive government that doesn’t feel “othered” by the world, as has been the case, and then Russia can be welcomed into the international community as a friend.

No peoples that are alienated and maligned will be peaceful, Russia and Best Korea are examples of this. We can be their friends and let our friendship be get peace.

Vance vs DTJr, I think Vance has it.

California is neoliberal with a thin veneer of progressivism painted on by leftist at a thickness that chips constantly in most places.

There is nothing wrong about an IQ difference.

Where there are problems is when the higher is annoyed by the other needing explanation or the lower having a complex about needing the explanation.

If you love it when you don’t get it and they can explain it in terms you understand and they love it when they can fulfill your curiosity, perfect.

If you hate how they make you feel stupid or they are annoyed that you just don’t get it no matter how they try to explain it, that is a problem and either party can be at fault in both cases. There is the old saying that if you can’t explain it properly, you don’t understand it fully, I feel that applies.

Talk with them, be honest and raw in your thoughts. Express your concerns about how you, as you are, may be less than they deserve. If they love you, they will try so damn hard to express themself so that you understand.

You shouldn’t be asking the internet, ask them. Your insecurity or anxiety is not for us to cure, your partner is the only one that can beat that into your thick little skull. I joke, but really, there is no comfort or validation strangers on the internet can provide that beats your partner saying how much they love and appreciate you for you regardless of your flaws or shortcomings.

It isn’t the vaccinated part that disqualifies his interest.

I ain’t see no “/s” at the end of my post, I was just talking facts about the type of sociopath that would want an AI bookmark.

That product is a failure because you can listen to an audiobook while ignoring your family and/or disposing of a dead hooker a lot easier.

It will make it easier to say you have read all those books on the shelves, making yourself more interesting as a person because you read so much. At that point you can just lord your superior intellectualism over the unread masses. That will of course make you a better person and more valued by society and surely will be saved from the camps because you read Jane Eyre and Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee.

All you would have to worry about is talking to someone who actually has read all those books and you can’t hold a conversation about an important aspect of it, thus exposing your fraud, leading to you having to dispose of a body to maintain your fragile ego; but that is just how reading goes sometimes.

Did you assume the sand as having no velocity relative to the object going C?

They are probably worried about them not coming back because they got recruited.

Local grocery stores. There are mom and pop type ones in some places, but most are going to be chains these days. In a nearby town was a single location family owned grocery store that was very popular despite being just down the road from a major regional chain, it failed because the real estate market and shopping trends in COVID made it impossible for them to stay open; it is now a very busy Whole Foods. So small family owned grocery stores are dying.

The thing is that shopping entirely local is very hard to do and even harder to do if money is a concern. You have to make compromises like driving twice as far or spending twice as much.

Those boutique stores are often failing because they can’t compete unless the town is a tourist spot or there is a wealthy enough population for bored housewives to have their operating costs subsidized.

If you really want to go local, meaning locally produced products, then you will have to do your shopping online or contact the company to see if their products are in any stores.

I would have loved it if he did that.

The client list is only a starting point for investigating.

It would take getting ahold of Epstein’s blackmail on people to actually get convictions.

Even if someone was in his client list and had multiple trips to his island, that still isn’t enough proof. You could easily assume the individual went to the island for illegal activity because illegal activity was known to go on there, but that does not mean that they did anything illegal.

Innocent until proven guilty, the blackmail is the evidence of guilt. It is likely that Maxwell has access to the blackmail, but that much dirt is very valuable as a leverage tool that nobody would want to give up. She probably won’t give up the blackmail to avoid being Epstein’d.

We will never get the outcome we want because the blackmail is missing.

Check all the wires to ensure they are all connected and have clean contacts. If your grounds are bad, it can cause all the issues you describe.

It may be something else, but checking grounds is the first step with the issues you have mentioned.

Check grounds.

Nearly beat it, not a great game 5/10.

The environments are nice and fun to explore.

Story is mediocre. Dialog is tiresome, I started button spamming to get through a lot of the conversations that didn’t matter. Combat is nothing remarkable, no matter the weapon combos, and the enemies are just damage sponges with no real tactics necessary to defeat a given enemy. Magic is kind of cool but you have to really spec into mage to get there. The immersion is about as deep as a puddle on flat concrete.

It is one of the games of all time, a game you could not play and miss out on nothing.

Edit: Just beat it, terrible ending that feels like it was tacked on last minute to provide some sort of conclusion.

Making it is easy. Making it good, conveying enough of the lore, and it making money would be hard.

I would prefer it to be with a silent protagonist waking up to a new reality in which they just keep stumbling into brutal fights until they reach the end.

I know they will put too much Hollywood into it and the protagonist will remember their previous reality and they are fighting to get back to their love interest or some crap like that.
