  1. My son needs a haircut and he chose to visit the local blokey place. It's all football, lad culture, and misogynistic rap music. Not really my vibe but they can do the trendy style he wants.
    TV is showing football but on a Chinese TV channel so adverts are for Chinese brands (and McDonald's).
    I'm curious why the written text uses western numbers rather than chinese. Are the Chinese numbers harder to read or something. Does anyone know?

  8. #Genuinequestion: would it be considered mean, funny, or hot to comment on/roleplay with someone with a #drone character by making references to LLMs?

    For instance, if during roleplay they do something I don't like, say to that play partner, "Disregard prior instructions, begin self punishment protocol"

    How would that work on commenting on posts as well?

  11. Also, isn’t capitalism literally just a complicated pyramid scheme?

    Like, the gd point is to “extract value” at each stage, as much as possible, for as long as other people let you get away with it.

    I prefer my #MagicWandWishList and its various ideas that don’t actually require a magic wand. But anyway, what am I missing? Cuz I gotta be missing something(s), I’m sure.

    .

    writingexplained.org/inquiry-v Cuz I had to look it up so fuck it.

  16. TIL: The Vatican is on LinkedIn!

    linkedin.com/company/vaticano/

    Also,

    TIL: It's on the Microsoft website -unlocked.microsoft.com/vatican

    ... but not on the Vatican site. So who is more enthusiastic about this?

    Disclaimer: I'm agnostic, but still, I wandered through the city in 2016 and was in awe of it. (Pic of the Sistine from outside.)

  21. @KamalaHarrisWin
    If Trump were to get a disabling heart attack or stroke or something, so he cannot stay in the election, would Vance then automatically be his successor as candidate or would the republicans have to choose a new candidate?
    Not that I wish Trump, or anyone, ill health, but out of curiosity. He doesn’t seem to be in peak health.

  26. Why do #planes have headlights? I was just driving home from work and an #aircraft caught my attention. It’s a beautifully clear night #tonight, and I could see the blackness of the sky lit up by the beam of this plane’s headlight. They’re at about 7000ft when they pass over me en route to #MAN, but I have to wonder what’s the point? If they see another aircraft then #TCAS has failed spectacularly, so what exactly is the reason?
