I used to work with this guy whose wife had some restricted job. I asked what she did and was told all he could tell me was "she has a double master in microbiology and virology and gets paid by the cdc" this was about 2012.
Due to this and associated "security" risk his kids were put into a "secure" daycare. To pick them up he had to present a photo id, finger print scan, and retina scan.
Hopefully they put up warnings for the local rodent population since they are releasing such a great hunter
But will also destroy your life for partaking...
I had an apartment, I didn't notice signs of a pet but definitely a sad family. The guest bathroom had pictures of castles, princesses and knights drawn in crayon on side of sink cabinet next to toilet. There was a scene with a dragon breathing fire at a knight holding a shield towards the fire protecting a young princess from the flames. There was a large wine stain on balcony floor. Multiple sets of knuckle prints on the inside side of the door to the apartment. There was a cabinet hanging I've the kitchen island but there were several sets of screw holes to hold a wine rack which for some reason had to be redone several times, either too much wine and it ripped out or too much anger and it was torn off.
There must of been a couple with a young child having relationship issues...
Don't throw their shit around, just move it slightly. They are watching tv, reach for cup of tea... Its now 3 inches to the left. They go take a shower, shampoo is now at front of shower instead of back. Heading to work, their car seat is all the way forward and the back is angled forward. Randomly switch the direction of rotation of their bedroom ceiling fan.
No one will believe them. They will know something is going on. They tell friends and family but are told they are imagining it. They keep insisting it's real.
Do something too big and it ruins the psychological warfare. No one can deny their car was flipped over and thrown into the car next to. No one can deny the TV was ripped off the wall and smashed into the family dog. But if their spice cabinet just was re-arranged three times a week...
Pavucontrol fixed it, don't know why or how but it's fixed now.
Yeah you're right about investments like pensions/401k whatever. I won't be a winner, we will see if I even will be a survivor. I don't think the major Ai companies will completely die because most of them have other revenue sources, Nvidia Microsoft etc will still be there and there stock will still be valuable. Anthropic may turn to ash, openai will probably be incorporated into Microsoft. The small companies selling bespoke Ai solutions may die or thrive depending on if they are actually producing something useful but likely won't have a tremendous effect on the stock market.
Just like the dot com bubble, useful companies with thrive and useless ones living off vc funding with die. I don't think Ai is like 3d tvs where it was everywhere and then no where. I have a feeling it's more like dot Com where there is so much over investment which will correct itself but won't go to 0.
That's not the scary part, it's a fortune 500 international company whose customers could die if the product didn't work...
I think I'm going to take sobriety more honestly now. On Monday I was at work and threw up some stomach acid. I decided to take a half day and told my boss who was ok with it. I went to shut down my computer and next thing I knew I was in an ambulance. Just got out of hospital yesterday, supposedly I had a seizure from withdrawal.
Im taking next week off from work to take care of myself but that was scary and I don't want to go through that again. I knew I was getting bad but didn't expect it to be that bad. I never got wasted, just commonly had a buzz to feel normal. The hospital stay sucked and I was completely out of it for most of it. Now I can't drive for 3 months(not a dui but state law regarding seizures).
Never read that thread on r/askalawyer... Or did I?
Am I old if I remember xoom?
With age there comes certain changes that make you no longer do that... It won't get better but getting up is preferable to laying in a puddle.
