Taxes...
  • Technically yes, but didnyoubgo to work to earn money to pay taxes as a child?

    No. But technically speaking, ididnbgo to work to earn money to pay taxes as an adult either. So I'm not sure where this line of questioning is going.

  • Thanks, UPS!
  • I'm 99% sure this is fake or that it wasn't UPS who delivered the package. I can see virtually the whole box in this image and it's clear that the package is in pretty decent condition and not covered in mystery stains.

  • You are now in charge of Russia. What do you do?
  • I would have ice cream for supper, that's for sure. If I started getting fat, I'd start taking the new weight loss shots to trim down. I'd offer everyone in the country ice cream for supper and then I'd also offer them weight loss shots if they got fat from eating ice cream.

  • Generative AI hype is ending – and now the technology might actually become useful
  • Are you finding that the assistance it provides has gotten worse over time? When I first started using it, it was quite helpful the majority of the time. In truth, it's still pretty decent with autocomplete, just less consistently good than before. However the chat help has truly gone into decline. The amount of unfounded statements it returns is terrible.

    And the latest issue is that I've started getting responses where it starts to show me an answer, but then hides the response and gives me an error that the response was filtered by Responsible AI.

    Glad I'm not directly paying for it.

  • Is life in the city less lonely than in a small town?
  • Sorry, I can't read all that, so if some of this is already covered, at least you know why.

    The answer to this question is "your mileage may vary", as we sometimes say in my part of the world. There is 0% chance of any kind of consensus on this, because it all comes down to personal considerations and circumstances. If you want an answer that's applicable to yourself, you'll need to examine your priorities, circumstances, and considerations.

    What makes me feel lonely is a lack of connection with nature and a lack of close relationships.

    For people like me, city life is practically the definition of loneliness. Life in a large city was a special kind of hell. Life in a small city was bearable (but awful for other reasons besides loneliness but I won't dive into that because it's not what you're asking about). Life in a rural area with lots of nature, good neighbors, and a small set of very close friends is what I prefer.
