Maybe people have excess savings bc investing feels like a slot machine with the market crashing and spiking every other week and banks randomly failing just a thought

The "equipment issues" Southwest Airlines is experiencing is in no way related to recent NORAD and U. S. Northern Command operations associated with airborne objects over North America during February.

taking over the world any day now, just as soon as it figures out things like "geography" and "some cities have the same name i should probably be consistent and not answer the same question with boca-chica texas and boca-chica dominican republic in the same paragraph." but hey, it's doing a bang-up job of humanity there, doubling down on being dead wrong and storming off in a huff when called on it. complete trash and an absolutely hilarious moneypit, I approve of facebook and google completely tripping over their own dicks trying to catch up to this incredibly advanced technology.

yeah nobody should be calling it ai except as a shorthand because it's easy to say and most people know what you mean. people treating it like it's actual general artificial intelligence are dumb. it's a toy to gently caress with.

I know this is from a page or two ago but regarding weddings: my wife works for a company in Southern California that owns like 5 different venues and they sell all-inclusive wedding “packages” for like 20-40k. what really blows my mind though is that a Saturday wedding for any amount of people is automatically 10-15k more than the equivalent Friday or Sunday. the reason? because they can.

This thread makes a good argument for where a pivot to IP defense would fit in China's geopolitical strategy. vis a vis that draft: https://twitter.com/Orugario_/status/1648276266842312705 TL;DR maximum IP defense makes companies set up there and they can lean on those companies to advance PRC narratives. Consider that in the geopolitical game of thrones.

China deciding to regulate the gently caress out of AI also blows a hole in the libertarian argument that the US shouldn't regulate AI lest an unbridled China pull ahead of America in its development

But yeah: It's a loving racket from top to bottom. I'm v. glad that my friends got married back when hippie weddings on the beach were in vogue, although now all their kids are having the expensive kind. (Also jesus christ can people please come up with something other than pachelbel's canon for the march down the aisle? That, and kool & the gang's "celebration" played at reception should be outlawed on the basis of triteness.)

weddings and funerals are the biggest scams on earth for the same reasons friend of mine got married in her late twenties and she put the cost of the wedding on her credit cards since she didn't have parents anymore to cover the costs. The credit card bills lasted longer than the marriage did.

We spent like 20k on our wedding in February 2020, had 150 guests, and I feel like we got a good deal. The big savings was finding a venue (5k) that had bartenders who would serve alcohol we brought from costco (~750) I could not imagine the prices now.

My wedding cost ~5K seven years ago at a nice hotel with a decent reception. My friend DJed at the wedding and we didn’t buy booze because it would have literally doubled the cost of the wedding.
