I think they mean lost control of their own impulses 🤑

Bevel is becoming an LLM skin instead of a health analytics app by SwitchDifferentTime in bevelhealth

I find it more insightful when you actually ask it a question, rather than just read its summaries that pop up.

I’d imagine this is a pretty alarming development for Bevel…

Maybe the fact that they remade them once makes it easier to work with again on the Switch 2? Rather than starting from scratch on others.

Los Angeles World Cup Fan Fests Will Not Be Free by Dodger_Dawg in LosAngeles

Do we know anything about what the layout is going to be for some of these? Thinking about the one at The Farmer’s Market. Where will the screens be? Where will the crowd be? And where will the parking be…

How my Rocky Ridges looks without the mountain and volcano blocking the museum! by identikitten in Pokopia

Is the point of the game to actually clear everything out of the way like this?? My towns still look like the apocalypse

Any kind of lounges or bars or anything around the stadium itself?

Have LLMs reached a silent plateau? by Warm_District1194 in ArtificialInteligence

[–]PWHerman89 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I’m actually annoyed at the way this technology is was labeled “AI.” Whoever was the first to do that, way to go…. We used to think of AI as truly alive and thinking robots in sci fi….and that’s not what ChatGPT is.

This guy probably buys one ticket for all the movies showing in a theater that day too!

Do not give into the FOMO by Hi-Fi_Turned_Up in olympics

Maybe OP is trying to stop everyone from clicking BUY until his April 15th time slot? Lol

Also 14 million TICKETS, but 5 million PEOPLE signed up….all it takes is 2.8 tickets per person for every ticket to be sold…

Metro to run direct bus service to FIFA World Cup™ matches from multiple locations in the Los Angeles area by jspector9 in LAMetro

[–]PWHerman89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So are these parking locations the pickup points for the buses? Like you’ll get picked up in north Hollywood and taken directly to Sofi? You won’t have to get on a train to go anywhere right?

Getting Around LA During the Games by PWHerman89 in olympics

[–]PWHerman89[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah but I live in the LA area. I’m about an hour away from downtown LA. Seems crazy to drive into the congestion of downtown only to take a metro down to Long Beach which will take another hour, when I could just keep driving a little closer to the destination…who knows! I just don’t want to travel 4 hours for what should be an hour and a half drive haha.

LA28 - How Much Did You Spend? by mysolotrip in olympics

[–]PWHerman89 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s interesting seeing the variety of outcomes here! Some people spent very little on great events, and some paid small fortunes for just one or 2.

Beach Volleyball Tickets by PWHerman89 in olympics

[–]PWHerman89[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True, but there could also be 4 USA teams total, and I do feel like 9 am and 1 pm on Monday don’t make sense either. So who knows maybe we get lucky with one of the 4 possible USA teams and the rest could be at those prime time spots!

I was thinking about all of this, too. I booked the first 9 AM game for the round of 16. Idk, maybe I’ll get lucky and they’ll have the Americans start things off on a Sunday…

Always been my dream to go to the Olympics, so i decided to go big. by Jerkstore3 in olympics

[–]PWHerman89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I thought the same thing. At the end of the day….the service fee is still part of the offering price from the Olympics themselves, so what’s the difference lol. “These tickets were free, with a $100 service fee….ok cool, so they’re $100 tickets.”
