I get why the feelings sucks. You're in your head and somehow only the worst possible outcomes ruminate. You've called the cops, good on you.
You're not in charge of the world, there ought to be others who are charged with taking care of that girl. Their failure in preventing her from showing up on your porch is not your fault either and she's their responsibility, not yours. Keep repeating that in your head.
I think there are a couple of reasons. STIX and STX were failures, one so bad it ended the franchise. Also, IIRC Avery Brooks wasn't happy about the Sisko ending and he has pretty much stayed out of the limelight since DS9. While it was on the air the viewing figures weren't extraordinary. Worf was thrown in to get more TNG fans interested in the same way Jeri Ryan was put in a catsuit on VOY. DS9's last two seasons were binge TV before we knew that existed, it was ahead of its time, which explains why it's a sleeper hit and fan favorite. But not a great financial success at the time.
It's time to get concerned about Forbes. As a journalistic standard I would've expected to read about all the jobs some of these companies created during pandy times. There's been a trend towards layoffs long before OpenAI burst onto the scene. Also everybody is going to espouse the same streamlining bullshit in their PR even if layoffs are business-driven and not so much AI's fault. A best of press releases is not good enough journalism.
It's also not critical by reporting on some of the failures of the pivots to AI that have made the rounds.
New technology displaces workers in some areas and eventually creates demand in others. For time immemorial. All of this has happened before, all of this will happen again. That's why I regret having driven traffic to the Forbes website to be able to read this.
I know. What you have hit upon here is my obviously unsuccessful attempt at making these people look more ridiculous than the OG death cult.
I think this USSR quote is a good answer:
We know that they are lying, they know that they are lying, they even know that we know they are lying, we also know that they know we know they are lying too, they of course know that we certainly know they know we know they are lying too as well, but they are still lying. In our country, the lie has become not just moral category, but the pillar industry of this country.
(Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn)
In any authoritarian system where indoctrination starts young you'll probably have a fifth of the population that's high on the coolaid or never questioned anything due to ideology or intelligence (or both). The rest know they're lying, etc. And keep their mouths shut because they don't want to go to Siberia or El Salvador.
The guy was asked if they hypothetically would be interested in buying Chrome. What's he supposed to say? No? No! They're interested. But they're interested in the same way I'm interested in buying a 12-bedroom mansion. None of us will probably make it to our dream board goals. The rest is speculation and clickbait.
I feel this article is making a lot of something out of nothing. There are plenty of other reasons to bash OpenAI in particular. This ain't one of them.
I'm not going to press you on an answer about your emotions if you don't want to tell. You probably have it in you to change your behavior. If the bad touch response is frustrating you, there is probably a time span you can aim for in a shower that will be equally frustrating but without using the phone. Find that time.
Showers can be an incredibly wasteful way of washing. Finding ways to make them longer, especially on the reg, is something to consider avoiding.
What emotions are you having that cannot deal with 5-10 minutes of pure bodily hygiene focus?
No. At least not yet. I don't think they will be because that would entail having any of 47's children succeed him. And I feel like they know they are a shade duller than Hegseth.
You have unlocked the stylistic tool of the hyperbole.
Hands up if you didn't already know that. Or intuited it. To me this seems to be something only US-Americans who argue purely ideologically for a "small government" need reminding of. They're paradoxically often the first in line calling for government intervention when their drinking water is full of poop or something.
What do you want to do with your poster? Will this be used as a meme or will it actually go to a printer or be displayed on a high-res screen? If it's just a meme thing, any image creator AI will do. Most of them have free options.
If this will actually go to a printer, you'll need high resolution images and would do well to design it in a vector format, SVG for open source software: Inkscape is free to install on computers, vector-ink is a thing for mobile and the web as well. Adobe Illustrator for the corporate expensive route. Big file sizes work better on a good computer so YMMV.
