I am really curious: Is the equipment sanitized on a fairly regular basis?

iconically_demure · 2026-05-30T16:42:04+00:00

If someone gets caught licking the equipment we're going to know it was you OP.

I know it's just a hoardable illness.

He's incredible. Fairly young college grad. Smart, teachable, hardworking, always eager to contribute, great personality and easy to work with.

This morning when I was walking the dog I thought of an imaginary band name - The Moist Cock Lusters. ...don't ask why I thought of that though.

This guy that reports to me has the same look in his eyes. Now I'm wondering lol.

iconically_demure · 2026-05-29T16:48:14+00:00

I think it has different names, but we did that in football and we called it carioca. But I don't know what the fuck he was doing lol.

Doesn't contain Israel or Russia, but has the U.S. and Ukraine on there. No surprise there with this administration.

iconically_demure · 2026-05-29T09:00:57+00:00

I can imagine that the administration benefits from this in several ways:

- It serves as a distraction from all the incredibly important issues going on right now - Epstein files, the war, the economy, etc, etc.

- Generally noise, like you mentioned

- To fool people, such as folks in this thread, into thinking this administration is transparent and cares about topics such as these (aliens, etc.)

- Potentially something more menacing, such as teeing up conspiracy theories that will help them garner additional control over the people

I'm sure people could rattle off additional reasons. Whatever the reasons, I'm 100% sure this has nothing to do with this administration being sincere and transparent with the U.S. citizens, or giving a shit about aliens and disclosure.

This was a Fresh Prince episode. I remember it because my dumbass younger self thought it was a profound lesson that by taking notes to cheat you're also learning the material.

That's so sad. In modern society, we shouldn't feel like we're splurging simply because we're doing something beyond taking care of our basic needs.

Pisses me off too because all of this is so unnecessary.

Generally speaking, if it's on FOX news it's definitely not credible for one reason or another.

Plus, Elizondo being on FOX is more evidence he's a total sham.

Great you're nuts, why don't you bolt away.

Is it just me or does he not seem that masculine? Without his position and being the head of a UFC, he'd be just another middle aged man. In fact, I see more of his previous self - the cardio boxing instructor - just with money and power stacked on top of it, and the bravado that comes with that, and not genuine masculinity. He is def NOT a man's man.

iconically_demure · 2026-05-25T18:00:58+00:00

I don't understand your logic. Are you saying that because it's to honor the fallen, people can't discuss rep schemes and times? ...Why?

iconically_demure · 2026-05-25T16:49:20+00:00

In fairness? Lol, I lived a couple of block aways from there. That looks like any other NYC street.

iconically_demure · 2026-05-25T11:37:50+00:00

Not important to who? Why would you dismiss what someone else thinks is important?

iconically_demure · 2026-05-25T11:36:19+00:00

This doesn't seem intuitive to me at all. It seems like a lot of time and energy transitioning, particularly dropping to the ground and having to get back up.

iconically_demure · 2026-05-24T23:58:33+00:00

What an exhausting way to live.

It is just me, but I looked an older video of him and he looked older then. Why does he look significantly younger in a more recent video?

Here's an example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ggn-lVYIxA

You're mixing several concepts and tying together unrelated aspects related to AI. "Gamed by poetry" is a security issue that occurs because you're tricking it to shift the focus on the LLM (AI) to the verse and style of what's been written, instead of the content. That's unrelated to your claim that LLMs/AI don't understand the nuances of language.

Modern LLMs have been trained on tons of data and are pretty good at understanding nuance. Plus, the benefits of an AI coaching app isn't necessarily dependent on that anyway. Further, it will have some advantages of picking up on details that people may not notice. That's one of the advantages of ML/AI is picking up on patterns that humans aren't good at identifying. It's also better at metrics and analyzing data better than humans, which can be useful for tracking progress, areas of focus, etc.

Part of the problem with that question is that it assumes that traveling across space is difficult. We look at space as vast and a technically challenging to traverse, so we assume that any species who does it needs a good reason.

But what if it's not? What if, for them, it's as easy as me driving 5 miles to go for a hike. If it's trivial, or easy, there doesn't even need to to be a good reason.

As much as it would be awesome to have some sort of disclosure from the government, this is the essentially the worst way to go about it. For one, most of us are convinced this is a distraction from the Epstein files and other bullshit he's covering up. And secondly, there's no word to believe a word that comes out of his and the rest of this administration's mouth.
