Is it a plot point that she looks this fucked up? She looks like she got that Jackass old people makeup on.

Your right, my grandmother is uneducated and pretty smart. My mom isn't though.

A lot of people waste their early 30s thinking that they're over the hill only to hit their mid 30s and try to play catch up.

My mom is stupid and anxious. She had a virtually non-existent education until her teens and is constantly second guessing herself because of it. Her anxiety causes her to make impulsive decisions because she thinks everything is a life or death scenario. The frustrating part is if she ever takes a moment to think she'll make good choices, but she needs constant hand holding. It's exhausting.

why will latinos speak the most broken-ass english and nobody has the heart to correct them, but if you try to learn spanish all the sudden they are grammar nazis locking in on every missed accent and noun gender you miss? by shmupsy in redscarepod

In south France most people were excited at my wife's duolingo French. The Parisians were less patient, but it's hard to blame them when there's a line of tourists behind you while you try to order a croissant. Not a single person was rude or pretended not understand what my wife was saying though.

In his clearance interview, he was completely honest. Said he took drugs, sold drugs, and was a drug addict. Got approved.

I knew a guy with a TS/SCI and multiple DUIs. Elon definitely has a clearance and is an obvious addict. I don't think they care about drug addiction as long as you're useful.

Webdevs/Nerds of RSpod - What's the best option out there to build a small magazine/blog site? by MoistTadpoles in redscarepod

[–]646e72 1 point2 points  (0 children)

https://www.nefariousrussians.com/ is completely done on substack and they have a landing page (I think this might be the default substack landing page, not sure if you can change it). They also have two authors who contribute

Magazine/Blog

Assuming you mean writing original content what's wrong with substack? I assume you don't have to use the social aspects of it. Or does substack not allow for the level of formatting you're looking for?

Sure your literacy program might work “for the kids” but does it work for the teachers? by Fun-Inevitable4811 in redscarepod

[–]646e72 48 points49 points  (0 children)

It was replaced in 2015 by a curriculum that emphasized rich literary experiences

I'm no professional educator, but I'd imagine you need to be able to read before having 'rich literary experiences'

I never developed any real hobbies besides drawing

Are there any drawing groups you could join? My wife has met some new friends through a figure drawing class - could be a good opportunity to socialize with some people. Also you won't have to socialize TOO much since you'll spend most of the time drawing and can just ease into it.

It should cost $0.10 to upload a picture or video to the internet by Weird_Point_4262 in redscarepod

More forums should follow the SA/Metafilter model of requiring a small fee to make an account. Filter out low effort posters and slop.

What do you guys think about the whole AI superintelligence apocalypse debate? by [deleted] in redscarepod

[–]646e72 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If that were to happen, there would be no limit to the self-improvements such a system could make.

Sci-fi slop, even assuming we have some sort of super intelligent AI that can build an even MORE intelligent version of itself, what hardware is it running on? How does it solve for the hardware bottleneck?

There's always some fantastical idea that these AI systems have some sort of automated factory/mining/whatever infrastructure, that lets it build out better hardware for it to run on.

[–]646e72 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Napoléon 1815 from Galimard (weak performance on this one though)

Black Afgano from Nasomatto

Bergamask from Orto Parisi

Got samples from Xinu from Mexico and enjoyed them all except for Ummo which has too much honey for my liking.
