It's important to notice that while an underlying medical issue is certainly likely in your situation, and that's hard to work against... There's no physical way you were actually ingesting 200 daily calories and didn't lose weight.

This is beyond biology, it's physical. You were either consuming way more than that, or you were actually losing weight and just didn't notice. There's no alternative.

Companies that reach a certain critical mass really truly become incompetent. I don't mean just evil or profit first, I mean simply incompetent at the most basic aspects of running a business. There are marketing departments that behave as if the entire team is composed of interns frantically googling marketing slang.

Warner Bros, Hasbro, Apple, they're carried by the inertia of their gigantic size and the customers that were alive to have moulded their vision about the company during their good years.

I'm incredibly grateful to my colleagues and IT department at work for allowing me to use zero Microsoft products.

I don't use Windows, Office, Teams, Outlook, Bing or anything made by Microsoft at all, both in my personal life as well as work.

Life is great!

I wish the left was 1% as active and mobilized as the right claims it is.

Just ask Grok to fix the servers, AI is so much better than humans right?

Honestly, 90% of the need for dating apps would vanish if people had more free time away from work and well-kept public spaces for entertainment that didn't expect you to purchase anything.

So rather than a government-run dating app, how about a government-sanctioned 4 day work week and well kept public parks?

It's important to note that the AI isn't actually talking about it's internal system.

It's predicting how an AI model would reply to this question.

This is something people keep getting confused about LLMs. It's the same with those viral "I asked Claude to describe how it feels to think about himself and got this amazing reply with analogy and philosophical conundrums!"... Yeah that's not Claude describing how it feels to be himself, that's Claude generating a reply based on how people tend to talk about LLMs and the tone you requested (first person).

The entire point of living in a society, of following the collective social contract, is to assure everybody's basic needs are met.

To suggest otherwise is contradictory to the very core of what a society is, and at that point, its better to have no society at all.

Given how having "no society at all" is impossible with 8 billion of us around... Either provide for everybody's basic needs, or people need to break the social contract until they enforce their needs are met.

What's your biggest strength?

It is functionally similar to running a random installer you found

So basically how Windows users have been acquiring their software for the last 30 years.

That's why very few people are able to do what she's doing, and why she's extremely brave to leverage that: she announced that's her ship, where she is and why she is there. Killing Greta would be the kind of media storm that Israel would not want to deal with, especially given their strategy of pretending criticism of peaceful beautiful Israel = being an antisemitic ass. Hard to keep this false dichotomy if you kill a generational icon.

This kind of rhetoric is exactly why countries get this inflated view of themselves and get surprised when they elect somebody like Trump.

Your comment implies Brazil is somehow a bad country so "if even Brazil is dunking on you, you know you're bad!" but Brazil is the world's 8th economy, they have a robust electronic voting system that was audited many times and works fantastically well, they have a digital payments system that works instantly and isn't tied to any corporation, they have the largest biomass and clean water reserves in the world, public healthcare, public universities that actually publish the most research in the entire country (out-competing all private institutions by a huge margin) and many more examples.

They're not perfect... but not even Switzerland is perfect. When you feed this world view of "even Brazil" you become deeply blind to your own monumental issues.
