They were able to spread the district out to the sticks to get more Republicans and dilute democratic votes. It's a recent district. They basically sliced Nashville into thirds and included more County Americans and white flight bedroom communities.

There also the only store for miles in plenty of places.

Yeah, I want to say the first half was pretty difficult reading. Very experiential and kinda postmodern. It's almost like being in shock.

It's also pretty difficult emotionally.

Amazing that it was written so long ago. I only made it about halfish into the first season of the show.

Idk, now that we're planning invasions on our home soil maybe some people look at it differently now.

Plus, it's department of defense.

Idk, I think you're about ten years off there.

It is a good book (I'm too much of a chicken to watch much of the show).

It is very immersive and a difficult read, but masterful storytelling.

I honestly think it should be required reading.

We're USAmericans, we have an incredible inferiority complex and think white people accents are fancy.

That and they are adding Google TV into all the old Chromecast and breaking functionality. It's like they side loaded their own app and it... Is not ideal.

That's beautiful

I assumed that is part of what they were doing already.

 

We've basically combined the Library of Alexandria and 4chan, thrown it into a cocktail mixer and it looks like we are on the way to agreeing that we'll defer to whatever falls out.

so, you've got these models that spit out racism and sexism... and I guess insanity too and it's really like a distilled status quo.

Power gets what it wants out of it predictable, math based evidence that reinforces the current state of power.

I feel like when we talk about AI, we've got to talk about the context of all that language, a world where racism and sexism were not only givens, but moral imperatives.

We're not creating a god in AI, we're doubling down on failing systems, calling it math magic psycho-history, and trying to pass it off as something that's much better than it is.

but, the technology will get better, it's not really unfeasible to think of it automating white collar jobs the way robots did manufacturing.

overgassed AR (lemmy.world)

So, if I have an overgassed AR, and am kinda an idjit, what's the best way to make it gooder?

A heavier spring? Do I need to mess with the gas block or get a different tube? Am I going to have to do all this multiple times to get it right, or is there a suggestion or guide or something?

 
 

I don't really know who this guy is but he makes a compelling argument.

 

I got one of those stupid cool mist humidifiers because it was on sale (and top fill). Now I've noticed a little bit of black goop. With my summer time dehumidifier I just dump in some Hydrogen peroxide and call it a day.

If I just dump some H2O2 in my humidifier with the ultrasonic do dad just blast it to bits? Am I about to make diet mustard gas? Should I just buy the bullet and replace it with one that steals the badies out?

 

I've got a streamlight microstream that I've had for a few years now. I really like the general size and power. It'd be super ideal if it had a very dim mode. I'm only really dissatisfied with the microusb charging.

Is there anything out there that I should be looking at? Ideally rechargeable with a pretty simple UI... Honestly that's about all I'm looking for. Any suggestions?

 
 

Ideally, it be able to hold some weight and a pistol. I'm thinking something along the lines of a sling bag or daypack.

 

I've picked a master lock (3 I believe). I also picked all the little cylinders that came with the lockpicks I ordered. Sparrow progressive. I even respinned one... Mostly due to accident.

Where do I get more locks? I think I just need the cylinders. What are these called? Where do I buy them from? I'm mostly looking for cheap and they don't have to have a practical purpose. I'm just wanting to pick them for kicks.

I think you should go.

 

I'm not sure I've seen any evidence of it existing though, is it just a Boogeyman, or so something that happened a while back? An in joke of some sort?
