I grew up in the DARE generation. I was told people would be literally throwing hypodermic needles full of heroin at me.

I mean not even once

Y’all have to understand how predictable it was. This didn’t form in a vacuum. Russian propaganda networks pounced on it and went into overdrive.

The right wing reacts predictably to Russian propaganda.

The bots went into overtime the moment he was shot.

We don’t even know who the shooter was or their reason. Enough of this both sides bullshit.

Real enough. Two right wingers died. One was the shooter and the other a firefighter.

Literally every one of those examples except Luigi was right wing.

Dollars to donuts Charlie Kirk was too.

It’s only stable with Keplerian motion. In real 3-body motion, it isn’t stable. It also isn’t really possible to have bodies on the SAME orbit. Might be close, but not the same.

There also isn’t much trash to pick up. They’re probably picking up the same piece over and over again to look busy.

LLMs cannot generate something that wasn’t part of its training data.

Even if the training data is a Petabyte this is still true.

LLMs cannot think or feel. AI is just a name given to it to sell it.

Seattle. Previous owner was a hack.

But I figured out the mess.

Switched wire is red hot from a 12/3. Other half goes to dishwasher. Labeled the wire as red.

The other outlets… took out the 20a 2phase breaker, put in a single 15, and physically removed the red wires. Now I can GFCI it.

It’s the same on the downstream outlet. At least this one is grounded…
August 14, 2025 at 10:02 PM
Okay so further investigation… the only reason it did not immediately explode my appliances… the break-offs are broken. So this outlet is on two circuits.

Can you believe that? The inspection had some hits on it but not this!
