Re: Hunter Biden Plea Deal
Can Congress just subpoena anyone? Judicial subpoenas have all kinds of rules and checks and balances. It doesn’t seem like Congress would just be able to subpoena private citizens for the kicks. If that private citizen is linked to corruption involving the President of United Sates, they have ever...

Who is going to stop them? Hunter Biden? I mean I could subpoena you but if you don’t show up at my hou...

Re: Public Displays of Affection (PDA)!
Fancy you bring this up. Some years ago a man in a leadership position in his church often bragged about how great his marriage was, how his wife and him had no secrets, they had access to each other's cell phones and social account and so on. Guess what? Guy was a total dirt bag.... he was having ...

Re: GPT and LLMs: Good? Bad? Both?
One problem I can see is that AI generated text is insanely BORING. The best way to get me to ignore a web page or forum post or anything else is to let it be obviously AI generated. I'm not saying it has no useful purpose. But it sure doesn't take the place of a human writer. Internet searches on ...

Re: Carbon Removal
In their defense, I have wondered why people are going through all the trouble to invent carbon capture machines when plants already exist. If carbon capture were actually serious, all you need to do is build a giant permanent lumber yard. Ok, fine, you can get plants that grow (I mean capture carbo...

Re: Carbon Removal
Did nobody step back and think about the fact that this is like burying plastic or fiberglass? Very curious what they’re sealing them with that is both impermeable to carbon dioxide and also does not decompose itself. Hmm… I do wonder what this “special barrier” might be? Folks, they’re shrink-wrap...

Re: Local repair shop justified in towing "trespassers"?
15 signs? Seems like this is the Assistance Office’s problem. You can’t completely blame people for doing what seems like the most obvious thing to do and it’s up to the Assistance Office to communicate with their customers. The Assistance Office should either offer to pay for a prominent sign at th...
