> trying to switch to KDE actually sent me BACK to Windows.

....uh, why not use Cinnamon or MATE or Gnome or XFCE?

Conflating KDE with desktop Linux is strange

I say this as someone who suffered the same problems trying to use KDE (frequent windowing freezing requiring logout) and just swapped to Cinnamon. It's two mousebutton clicks at the login.

So coffee doesn't calm people, so then why do stimulants also act oppositely for those people? It's not caffeine.

It isn't stimulating that part of "the nation", it's calming and focusing them.

> Lets stop spreading this BS lie that stimulants calm people with ADHD down.

Most people who follow the science and personal experience probably don't have any reason to follow your command, sorry.

I mean, that's the GOP

For all the sloganeering, Democratic administrations have better fiscal responsibility about deficit spending

It's amazing how Reagan-era propaganda still sticks despite all evidence

So you went from know it "reduces appetite" to make a bunch of conjectures about why it affects other things

> But please, tell me how it's better than finally doing some exercise and eating right.

Because it actually works well?

Good ol' fashioned gumption doesn't work, no matter how crankily and haughtily you say it. GLP-1s do

Also, you don't mention why the things you listed are bad. Any weight loss will require a calorie deficit, which has the same "starvation" you're so aghast at.

So what?

Are you fantasizing that they'll reduce the price of cars because of this and somehow benefit people?

And they'd have to take the time to redesign. And Democrats will (hopefully) reinstate it in a few years, and carmakers probably recognize that. Along with the threat of legal challenges by environmental groups.

And, further, if we eventually do get these inefficient polluting cars - who's going to want to buy them? They certainly wouldn't be able to sell them in same countries. Seems pointless overall for carmakers, generally.

Just a gift to polluting corporations and billionaires who want profit at our expense.

Bush-era fabrications really worked on some people, I guess

Or is this a hard-to-parse witticism about Iran?

> like a road with traffic, cars parked, pedestrians about, weather

Not all of those need to be done "quickly". That's where LLMs fail

You note the weather when you leave. You understand the traffic five minutes ahead. You recognize pedestrians far ahead of time.

Computers can process a lot in fractions of a second. Humans can recognize context over many minutes.

The Waymo may have done better in the fraction of a second, but humans can avoid being in that situation to begin with.

...did you expect an electrolyte-free battery entirely made of paper and nothing else?

They also seemed to basically do it for two weeks and then stop because the rats "aged out" - despite it supposedly working well and achieving concrete results.

I know rats aren't long-lived, but I would be interested to know how they determined the rats 'aged out'.

Could also be a complete failure they spent considerable effort in with zero results, and are hand waving and constructing a way to quit while claiming success.

I could see the rats not really connecting things and just puttering around. It's a pretty involved setup and I poor uptake on the part of the rats would be a steep disappointment.

It summarizes the point of the article using the words of people interviewed.

How do you judge it as "clickbait"?

...it was pretty obvious. Did you assume it was literally dipped in human blood before export or something?

I'm curious how the metaphor is so far from one's mind when reading.

Definitely makes me feel better about my own work

> (and I hated it, but the place was great)

That's a mystifying statement. Why go if you found the coffee so unpleasant?

Decor?

Well is his kid a good speaker or a bore?

So how is the French populus reacting to Sarkozy being jailed?
