At least you admitted your biases. Unfortunately I just dont have the same confidence you have that you really have your finger on the average college students pulse. And in the end the point you made was extremely trivial: sometimes kids say one thing and do another.
While thats all interesting to read, you are adding in so many additional variables, we aren't talking about whether the game is too big or not anymore, we are talking about how you are slowly being buried in debt and at the same rate running out of things that make you happy.
A senior Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) official has recommended easing restrictions on marijuana, Bloomberg News reported on Wednesday citing a letter.
As a heavy smoker, the description or schedule 3 as you wrote it seems to fit.
Marijuana does cause minor physical withdrawal, as evident by the plethora of physical effects that occur when a heavy smoker stops. I would say the mental side of it is more prominent though and is what many struggle with when trying to quit smoking
Its not convenient unless you need to use it extremely frequently and can keep track of it because of that.
I barely use my adapter so when I do need it, its another 15 minutes to find it or realize it got thrown out or something. Its just not convenient. Convenience would be leaving both ports, or for headphone companies to split the end of the cable into usbc, lightning, and audio jack
I have not found any news article on this on a whim. Because my friends and family, I need to use Facebook Messenger, and Messenger Lite was a OK client - lightweight, no unnecessary features, etc., compared to the regular Messenger app....
All you are saying is its too convenient for you to stop using it. What makes it less convenient is learning about alternative ways to meet the same ends.
You'll find like a lot of others that giving up control to Facebook doesn't necessarily equate to the most convenient tool
Its really not that hard to use SMS or signal anyhow. I'm not entirely against WhatsApp either although I dont think I would ever leave it installed on my device long term
The point isnt that its too late, its that the hype is overblown. Go to the website this article mentions and follow the instructions (explore, turn on nsfw, type name and nude) and you will VERY QUICKLY realize the technology is just shit.
You can see some resemblances and sometimes one close one, but like another poster said they just look like the same shitty fan fiction we've had since Photoshop came about.
Also, this could end porn blackmail when none can tell if its real or not. People will start judging the person who us supplying the material rather than the person in it.
Just because the ai produces a model with Billie eilishes face and a naked body does not mean you've seen her nude for real.
Its the exact same as drawing a naked lady and then drawing Billie eilish's face on it.
If that really gets you off and really violates her autonomy in some way I'd be interested to hear how. Its not currently illegal to draw real people in fictional scenarios is it?
All of your arguments assume profit is the motive. Are you saying as long as no profit is made that it would be okay to do all of these things? (Ex. Self use only)
For some odd reason I burnout very frequently, or more like I get so brain dead that I literally cannot even come up with an Idea of what to do, let alone act on it. It feels like when I even try to start I get so exhausted that I have to lay down....
IMO we as humans were never supposed to get immense motivation BEFORE an action. Its supposed to come after you see the results of your work.
That said, you keep coming up with excuses you cant create:
Too tired
Ideas aren't good enough
Not in the right mindset
What I make won't look good anyways
You need to alter your perspective because that is what is holding you back. You could draw despite all of those reasons above, but you CHOOSE not to.
I don't want to make it like a pull yourself up by your boot straps thing, I only say its a choice you are making so hopefully you will realize that you could just choose to draw.
Even if what you create is devoid of creativity, is unoriginal, does not represent you, and just plain looks bad, its still better to have created something and throw it away than to have created nothing.
Also any strong emotion can result in beautiful art, whether its a positive emotion or negative. Most people just want to see emotional honesty in art. Nothing wrong with how you feel, other than you preferring feeling a different way at the time.
My title might be a bit hyperbolic, but stuff like this worries me. I love to read and I love reading on a kindle. This has been going on for a while, but it has now reached absurd levels.
To be fair you don't need that many people to commit to a session in a book reading club before it's full enough to work. Anything more is just a bonus.

I agree. I also agree with the person who replied to you that said for some working onsite is still the best option. I think that both options have benefits and detriments. Mainly depending on what type of responsibilities you have at home. If I lived alone I might want to go on site just so I wasn't alone for a majority of my life. As it stands I have a wife and two kids and a kitty, so being home to help out (and avoid the 1000$ a month daycare bill) has been a great benefit to my mental health
I'm almost positive he got talked out of it with words about being on the same side and this is what our enemies want and don't shed Russian blood and on and on
It's a fascinating article title right? The story is pretty wild when you read the details of it too. most of the evidence of what happened is public and linked in the story so I encourage y'all to read them.
In short, I don't think this is isolated to this one researcher. In fact on one of her papers there are TWO INDEPENDANT CASES of statistical fraud by two different people.
Another interesting thing to note is that overall when it comes to the ability to reproduce a study, many of these peer reviewed studies do not hold up to scrutiny. One of the articles covering this story mentioned that less than 50% of the studies were able to be reproduced.
