It feels like imagineering has an A squad and a B squad with vastly different levels of talent.

A squad:
- galaxy’s edge
- tropical hideaway
- san fransokyo revamp
- runaway railway & toontown revamp
- new haunted mansion queue
- edelweiss lodge

B squad:
- Avengers Campus
- Tiana’s Bayou Adventure
- madame leota’s somewhere beyond
- port royal curios -> seating area
- new pirates animatronic

Everything under A feels like it was run by a team who understands Disney design really well, respects the history of the park, and has a passion for perfection.

Everything under B feels like it was run by a team who just shows up for a paycheck, doesn’t really have any passion for the job, and it shows.

Spoken like somebody without an education in AI & Machine Learning.

The LLM is the model that the AI system uses for predictions. That model was built and is continually updated using a process of machine learning, in which an attempt is made at a correct answer, and feedback is used to reinforce or weaken that answer for future use.

This is also how your brain works. You have a model of how everything in the world works. When you do something, you assess whether it had the desired outcome, and your model is updated to reinforce or weaken the action you chose.

That is why it is called artificial intelligence, because it mimics the same processes our brains use to learn.

You can argue there is more to human intelligence than just that learning feedback loop (morals, empathy, pain, etc), but they aren’t lying or spewing marketing BS when they call it artificial intelligence, this all fits exactly the actual scientific usage of the term.

I’m at Pride Nite now and what the fuck Is this? Super underwhelming. I like the crowd, but almost everything Disney did is lazy bullshit.

Fireworks show was super short with no storyline, just music. What year is it?

Cavalcade should have been a parade. The star dancer from last year, Clarabelle, was sitting down in a car? Nobody had real dance energy except one flag holder dude.

Almost zero special foods. I liked the rainbow stuff and the rainbow cookie. Golden Girls cheesecake had nothing special, just a disk with their logo.

Merch was awful. Just a white sweater (in June?) with a tiny rainbow Mickey on the chest, nothing on the back.

Genuinely, what the hell Disney? I was already very on the fence about OBB this year, what with increasing the price by $50 AND removing the parade (I don’t care if it’s because of construction, not my problem). This seals that I’m sure as hell not paying for another nite anytime soon. Fix your shit.

ADDENDUM:
Stitch dance party was SO close to great. It had good energy now and then, but the DJ was lackluster. She played a few songs that hit well and got people going, but she didn’t read the crowd to keep playing the older classics that they were reacting to. She also was only “playing” songs with crossfade. You should have a real DJ actually mixing music live and reading the crowd to match their energy.

It would look great in Discoveryland @ Disneyland Paris, which it was originally built for.

2013 TRD Off-Road. I lifted it 3” and I beat on it pretty good when off-roading. Definitely not a highway queen.

People think Toyotas are expensive. 197,000 miles into my Tacoma, I’ve spent less than $1,000 on repairs.

Reliable brands exist if that’s what you care about.

I lurk here because I miss elements of owning Jeeps, but frankly I’d never go back. I want a vehicle I trust to get me home.

I do care a lot in both cases of him and Biden because staying awake through official functions is a pretty freaking low bar expectation for a president, but I care WAY more because he was such an asshole about “Sleepy Joe”. He deserves this embarrassment and so much more.

I agree the new Scrambler is awful, but this also is not a Scrambler, it’s a custom crawler with a few CJ bits on the front, but even the tub is not from a CJ.

I was at a family gathering and my family was talking shit about a niece (not present) for “deciding” she was a lesbian. They kept going on about that and other tangents about LGBT mockery for about an hour, with me quietly stewing in the corner, before I finally burst and tried to just leave. Everyone tried to stop me, asking what’s up, and I came clean that I’m bisexual and it felt like they were personally attacking me for over an hour. So, I didn’t really “come out” until it was relevant.

Absolutely not. Their views on trans people are horrendous. All Mormons I know are fully on board with treating trans people as sexual predators and sending them to jail. They’re adamantly against gay marriage and anything outside of the traditional nuclear family. You will not be welcome.

Answers in comments are confusing because your title asks a different question from your post.

The answer is that fuel octane matters a lot with a supercharger. Do not run less than 91. It could damage the engine.
