We have those in NL. A few other European countries as well.

Thank you for the explanation.

Getting downvotes (and bots were here etc) but this is essentially true, if delivered a bit mean.

Don’t buy ceramic knives; they dangerous as hell and will fail catastrophically at the wrong time. And never put your cutting knives in the dishwasher, as you amended your post to say.

Good knives don’t have to be expensive, but you’ll have to so some research or buy second and learn how to sharpen them. They will burn me as a witch, but there are other methods than a whetstone that are just as effective and that do not significantly damage your blade.

Can you elaborate on the social security thing? I have lived most of my life outside the States and hope to never need SS, but, well, best to know what’s going on just in case.

Your dad is indeed quite selfish.

But I think we will start to go back to the multigenerational housing. Young folks can’t afford a house, so live with their folks, have kids, who help with the kinds …and then their folks need care as they age.

Could be a virtuous circle or a vicious one depending on your family/situation.

Gotta back him up on this point, and I think every parent will agree - from the time they are toddlers until late in high school you WILL catch every disease all the other kids at school had that week. Among most parents it’s a running joke.

Mine are grown now but still living at home and I STILL catch shit from them going around their unis.

We had 400-500 people gather at the park just south of the centrum. They all marched off, but we are not really sure where they were going (there was more than one group than ours involved).

It’s possible they were headed for the centraal station, where the AZC protesters would be coming from…

The VVD did this to us. And their neoliberal bullshit led directly to the PVV and the other far right garbage.

Big protest coming to my city tomorrow against the AZC, not even people from here. We will counterprotest and not le them near the AZC, that’s the plan anyway.

Well that’s fucked. Is there anything left to do to stop this bullshit?

Also I read it was the damn VVD who made this deal in the last cabinet. Figures.

You really, really don’t want to bring consciousness theory to what is essentially a phenomenology fight.

I read this weekend there was a new court challenge though?

And the absolute greatest part of his cover is that when it comes to the guitar solo at the end you think either he or Belew (whomever was on that tour) are about to shred Jimmy Page’s solo they do not.

Instead he does a homage by having this horn section cover Page’s solo note for note.

Slight thing, Campbell didn’t write Withita Lineman, but it was written for him.

Fun fact, Jimmy Webb, who wrote it, hated the “And I need you more than want you / And I want you for all time” line and begged the producers to change it when that plus the ambiguity of the key its in are arguably what make the song.

Red, totally red and somewhat bright.

Thanks for the very detailed reply! I’ll check into it.

I didn’t get any fucked up things about neurodivergence, and my son is way on the spectrum.

(But, yeah it is kind of a shaggy dog story - but with some interesting philosophic experiments along the way, the main one of which is directly relevant to LLMs now).

But I hate how much metadata that Wire leaks.

This is the first I have heard of this - can you point me to any sites?

Very cool, thanks.

You’re getting a lot of downvotes - I think it might be helpful if you explain you are using a different sort of AI rather than LLMs or gen AI.
