FYI, the "brain scans" of "porn addicts" is a fabricated image taken out of context.
"In summary, this image has been widely circulated as evidence of pornography addiction. It appears to come from a for-profit corporation selling religious porn addiction treatments"

SoftBank sold its ENTIRE Nvidia position, and is likely to unload all of their TMobile position.
And it STILL won't be enough to fulfil their commitment to OpenAI.
They've only got a little over a week to find a hefty fucking chunk of change.

The world would be immensely better if more religions and their believers had even a tenth of the dedication the Sikhs do to doing good for people with no gatekeeping or expectations of anything other than "you are a fellow human in need and we can help you"
Folks, if you are hungry, please contact your local Sikh gurdwara. Or just show up for langar, which most gurdwaras do several times a week, for a free meal. Lots also do weekly or monthly drives giving out groceries.
No conversion necessary. Feeding anyone who is hungry is a key part of Sikhism.

A lady on TikTok has been calling churches pretending to be a mother with a baby who needs formula and several churches turned her away. But wouldn’t you know that when she called a Mosque (Islamic Center of Charlotte) they immediately said yes.
