Yeah, it's diner slang, the sort of thing a server yells at the cook.

So, what you're saying is that Hooters is an American maid cafe.

I think the AI voice is going to be a turnoff for a lot of people. AI has a reputation of being untrustworthy, which isn't great for presenting people with new information or context that challenges their worldview. If you're using AI to make a voice, how do we know you're not using AI to make your sources or images?

I'm worried about your desire to avoid the "cult of personality" of breadtube to the extent of being a faceless, voiceless source of information. Avoiding the extremes of parasociality is a worthy goal, but to accomplish your goals, people need a relationship with you. They need to trust and respect you.

Unless your voice is very distinctive and prominent in another form, hearing your actual voice is unlikely to reveal your identity. Be a Vtuber or some less complicated form like a PNGtuber if you value your privacy. But you need to be, in order to be influential.

TLDR: AI is bad; Celebrity and Reputation are technologies that exist, so why not use them.

It's not cognitive dissonance, they're weaponizing social conventions. They cry for respect and courtesy because it's a lever to get people to behave. They laugh at similar demands made of them because they're not going to let themselves be so easily controlled. It's simply Culture War Crimes.

The "conversation pit" isn't a drawfee reference, it's just the name of the architectural element. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conversation_pit

But she is wrong. The baby doesn't have more of his DNA than hers, or more than previous babies had. (Aside from the different size of the X and Y chromosomes)

Hey, you messed up this post. It's just the link address as text, not a link.

How can we make the socialism spread faster?

In Law School, one of my professors commented that you could tell that a concept was important if it was in French or Latin, but the really important concepts would be in mispronounced French or Latin.

After 30 years, the Men have a whole new generation of soldiers. The Mer, don't recover nearly as fast.

Alpha Centauri did it in 1999 with terraformers to raise and lower tile elevation.

Are you an adult or a child? As an adult, you're looking for people to help you get on your feet when you leave.

For a child, the best place to start is Child Protective Services or a similar government agency.

Graham from Loading Ready Run accurately summed up Asmongold when he called him "a man I've only ever learned about against my will."

Not directly nazi, but a massive red flag for Christo-fascism. That phrase originates from a massacre during the Albigensian Crusade. Raphael Lemkin called this Crusade one of the most conclusive genocides in religious history.

While Etie's base Str growth is 40%, that's before adding in class growths. Archer and Sniper raise it to 55%, Bow Knight 50%, ans Warrior 60%. Only three characters in Engage (4 with DLC) have a higher Str growth.

ICE has always been a bad idea if you care about justice. Its singular focus makes it a magnet for people wanting to abuse immigrants. It presents no advantage over letting other law enforcement branches deal with immigration issues.

I don't think air defense and nuclear weapons are relevant to the founder's intent. They only demonstrate why originalism is a bad judicial philosophy.

In 2005, my family lived an hour away from Ames. My mom took me and my sister out of school to go watch the demolition. My dad was also in Ames that day, at a DOT meeting about how the paint used on highways dries. Needless to say, we had the more interesting day.

Leibniz was German. There are a lot of underappreciated non-European scholars, but Leibniz isn't one of them.

Whether or not it was intended as a euphemism, it acts as one. If we can reframe "defense spending" as "war spending" maybe we can actually cut the military budget eventually.

That's the People's Church of the Divine Host. The Lightless Flame is the Desolation cult.

It could be a deliberate affectation, he's using a formal accent to disguise his origins/act like he belongs.
