You're right, the prequels have dead kids, almost no women, and heck, it even has a dear leader taking over the Senate and declaring himself emporer in the name of safety. Republican wet dream.

When I needed to pick up on some basics, it actually did help but ultimately not as much as actual guides and tutorials written online. This image of a chimera certainly matches the kind of Frankenstein code I was getting.

That said, when I was having some very interesting ideas about making automated code in R, it did make for a good sounding board. You don't need to Google when everything in R has documentation but you do when you're combining libraries in unique ways to automate 98% of the stupid shit you do at your data researcher job (e.g. can you look up in our database how many students pick their nose during philosophy class on a Friday?)

I just some a lot of Lemmy are neurodivergent and do in fact require /s.

Which is actually halfway true, the other half being a more international crowd that aren't on the same page as whatever perspective you've got. That said, I got the joke and second you on spending more time with my feet on my desk while the boss pays me for my 20 minutes of work.

NPR also mentioned that there just hadn't been that much going on to filibuster. Nominations, sure, but Congress has been mostly taking a back seat to the presidency, for better or worse given executive actions aren't as permanent as Congressional law.

That's correct, although I do like that my IKEA ones have programmable remote switches. I don't tend to use them anyway, but my whole thinking is to Home Assistant them whenever I have time. The real dream, though, is have my house setup up detect exact location so they can fade in and out as I approach like a freaking video game, though, which is apparently possible.

But no, I just flip a switch like a person who doesn't have time for this lol

Just do some errands for your neighbors and shake a few trees and you'll upgrade from the starter furniture in no time.

It shouldn't be. Usual smart bulbs let you use the light switch. Unless you somehow removed the analog switch, though, maybe?

Oh man, one could supply an entire army with the arrows shot at that guy, I'll tell you hwat.

I'll be honest, I was just thinking about the lack of school shooting news. Is it just getting buried or do those kind of assholes just feel too "seen" by this administration to take it out on kids or something?

Sorry, I'll edit it for clarification. I was quickly typing and the word slipped.

It's universal when 1 in 100 anonymous people are in fact chaotic assholes (and the rest, lerkers). Just a bad idea to train AI on the whole of us and not just the best of us.

Positive spin, he bought it from a pro-LGBTQ+ thrift store to support local causes in his area. I swear I've seen similar jackets at said thrift stores.
