I’m not even talking about whether it happens, the writing is obvious AI slop.

Oh, if I was picking something for an old timey doctor to prescribe me it would probably be laudanum

Windows decided my perfectly functional PC couldn’t run 11, and Linux Mint has no issues running. I’m not getting rid of a perfectly good computer just because Microsoft wants me to. My husband has to use Windows for work and it seems like a huge pain in the ass. I’m not into fiddling with computers, and Linux is at the point now where it feels no more complicated than Windows (and often significantly less complicated).

Neat, I didn’t know there was an actual reason for it!

Nope, Soundcore. My sympathies that more than one company does this!

It’s at least partially in response to a right wing sheriff seizing ballots; it wasn’t immediately clear whether it was illegal (he claimed it was part of an investigation, state AG said he didn’t have the authority), and the state Supreme Court had to tell him to knock it the fuck off. This makes what the sheriff did a felony, so any repeat attempts will at least land him a felony charge.

From hell’s heart, I stab at thee!

It might be where I live and the types of places I volunteer, but the coordinators have all been super chill and let people assign themselves to do whatever they want to do out of tasks x, y, and z. Not like a shift at a job even though there are clearly people in charge

If your school has a book scanner you can scan the sections you need from the course book (usually kept as a reference book in college libraries) without buying it. I’ve been doing that this semester because the cheap book I ordered off eBay still hasn’t got here and my summer course is almost halfway done, lol

We bought an unbranded version off Alibaba, it works just the same as the branded ones and was a lot cheaper. But the trade off was the first one they sent was smashed to pieces in transit and took like 3 months to sort everything out, which was a huge PITA. So I would go that route if you’re willing to wait/communicate with the Chinese manufacturer if they don’t pack it securely and it gets smashed, and if you value your time more than I do I would get a branded version.

The version I heard was with a roast and involved cutting the ends off. Funny how many version there are.

My husband and I are celebrating our 1 y/o cat recently becoming comfortable with the cat wheel we got him, even going full tilt on it on his own 😌 We’re very proud of his accomplishment!

I assume it’s that leg healing reduces their speed or endurance

Basically this, part of how they get their speed (legs being mostly tendon and cartilage) is what makes healing so difficult. Both tendons and cartilage have far less blood supply compared to muscle or skin, which heal much more quickly. So if a horse developed legs with more tissue and muscle (and thus an increased blood supply, improving healing), they would have been slower than their skinnier legged cousins and had no competitive advantage.

Re: why didn’t horses evolve better leg healing, if you’re a proto horse and injure your leg you’re probably not living to heal it, because you can no longer run. So there is no evolutionary pressure to spread those genes through the population, even if a horse did randomly get born with genes that let it heal its legs better than other horses, because no selection mechanism would exist.

They accuse anyone to the left of Hitler of hating America while flying the flag of an enemy nation defeated 150+ years ago.

I’m not saying this is definitely AI, but it’s weird that I can’t find any attributions prior to 2025 and that an exact visual search doesn’t turn it up in some historical archive site if it is real.

Maybe next they can “troll” him by reporting on the Epstein files instead of this inconsequential shit.
