Has it been so long since Hamilton came out that you kids forgot this was even a plot point there?

After a significant amount of:

French elites and non-Arisocrats got familiar with the American revolution enough to both see the post-Enlightenment period ideals as socially palatable, and also see that an internal conflict supported by an external power could be successful.

Expecting reciprocal aid from the Americans (womp womp), the French Revolution started, and the Americans stayed out of it because they still saw their support as from the Kingdom of France despite commonalities of both reasons and even people involved in the French Revolutionary side.

I was speaking for blonde-haired, blue-eyed Jesus.

The US exported the Revolution to France.

Find Nick Cage and we can get the idea out of Ben Franklin’s family vault where he kept all his porno mags.

Edit: kids, while the French Revolution was likely inevitable by 1779, and many factors mutually supportive between the two, French military involvement in the American Revolution kick started their timeline. Downvote all you like, history does support this. Literally, History (channel).

And yet, the TACO rule is a rule. He always chickens out.

Yes, but no one checks the legality of cheap Chinese devices from Amazon.

Yeah, I was going to list a lot of above knee-height clothing items and got lazy.

Indeed I did! Thanks

As long as there’s 1 liter of ranch dressing per leaf of lettuce, Jesus will allow it.

Southern Baptists? I think you left out all their other usual targets: Catholics, spicy food, jazz, orgasms for fun, bright colors not associated with flags or maybe a football team, female orgasms, singing, alcohol, drag shows, salads with less than 51% mayonnaise content, men using umbrellas, single mothers, showing people kissing on TV or movies, Jews, Muslims, really any brown person, wasabi, mangoes, and aged cheese.

F. This will be moved to an OSINT tool within a week, and scraped into a darkweb database by next Friday.

Pell Grants helped me get a degree that increased my income, made my life better, and made me a better, taxpaying American.

-Actual client testimonial.

I’m a moderate user for code. LLMs are not smart, they’re pattern machines. Anyone who cedes critical thinking to them without due diligence, gets what they deserve, and likely didn’t really have much in the way of critical thought in the first place.

These companies are all trying to figure out how to monetize their latest juked benchmark stat and create something with actual value equivalent to the billions in investment they’ve thrown into processing. The industry is awash in startups dong the same thing 90000 ways. Human lust for money and power is the most nefarious thing about it all.

I haven’t lived in the US in a while, and every time I visit and one of these things starts shouting at me, I wonder how anyone tolerates this shit.

Occasionally you’ll see one button that’s more worn, maybe bottom right iirc, that mutes it. Doesn’t always work, though.

Honestly, unless there’s a shared currency to keep afloat, regional bodies like this are always a tentative benefit at best. Especially in this neighborhood.

Rwanda is orders of magnitude more just a normal, functional country than DRC.

Because it’s a fear-mongering angle that still sells. AI has been a vehicle for scifi for so long that trying to convince Boomers that of won’t kill us all is the hard part.

I’m a moderate user for code and skeptic of LLM abilities, but 5 years from now when we are leveraging ML models for groundbreaking science and haven’t been nuked by SkyNet, all of this will look quaint and silly.
