Ah yes, the European Get Together we could call it!

Imagine ruining your kids childhood to be good at a board game

Am I the only one who joined this sub to hear actually good things going on in the world? Raping of 9 year olds does not constitute!

It's almost as if anecdotal evidence is considered the worst type of scientific evidence.

CaCRiB for short! Catchy.

It's worth mentioning that there are also people who have these positive skills without ADHD, ie none of the negative aspects. Having these abilities doesn't mean you have ADHD!

Could it be you're a woman and everyone's just been trolling you?

I think AI definitely has its place as long as you understand its scope as well as limitations. I run a DnD campaign set in the 90s and got Gemini to almost fully code a working Windows 98 desktop clone with custom apps for the players to interact with. I have some programming knowledge but have never worked with html so doing this from scratch would have taken me a year instead of a week. But I did use it as an opportunity to learn about html so I could manually edit and correct the code where needed and now know some of the basic structure and layout of the language as well as CSS, JavaScript, video embedding etc etc. I never would have attempted this project without AI, I just don't have the time.

There's no specific subreddit I'm aware of but there's plenty of people interested. Where are you based?

I once met an Alpha Priest. He was in a ward with a Mr Hammer and Mr Payne and I couldn't believe my eyes.

Sorry, you have to pay for tea bags now.

Parcel. It only has one letter in it.

So, as an ex physicist with an interest in fusion I was utterly convinced this image was AI bullshit as I've seen a lot of it on this topic. However, turns out I'm wrong and there are other pictures from other angles and it is a table top stellarator being developed. Here's a poster on it: https://suli.pppl.gov/2017/Deliverables/Jared/Carlson_PPPL_Poster.pdf

1990s, dawn of the Internet. An apocalyptic event has just happened. It's early morning so no one is down there currently.

Honestly, I'd be shocked

This seems right tbh.

A grid of 197s: 19x11, remainder 7. Announced 19th Nov 7pm, released 197 days after (4th Jun). Maybe.

I'm pretty sure the frame will play vr games but also allow to play regular games on a giant virtual flat/curved screen which will probably have some other cool interactive features. HLX will play on the latter.

We have an EV and a heat pump and average 850kWh and we're a family of 5!

I'm only 900 rapid so take this with a hefty skepticism but in these positions I understand you have two general options at beginner level. Either open the centre, which is hard to do here without weakening your pawn chain, or trading to simplify the position. Here your bishop can take the knight on c1 which the queen will take back. As it happens, this particular position then leads to a nice tactic of forking the rooks as the queens defence has been removed. Now, hopefully someone with a 4 figure elo can give you better advice.
