That means something different. Like I said, that implies that we need the courts permission which is not the case.

I can tell you are not going to let this go, but it will help you in life to understand when you are wrong and be ok admitting that to yourself.

How would you word this different and have the same meaning?

Using “approves” is close but it changes the meaning of the headline and implies that their approval of this is needed when it is not.

I loved his Star Trek reference in his first episode. In case others are wondering,

He is the leader of a human looking alien race.

He is explaining his people’s histories and said something like,

“We were once part of a galactic federation of planets.” He then paused and looked at the camera for a second.

For those who have not watched it, Stargate is a fantastic series.

Watch them in order.

The Movie

Stargate Sg-1 (the first three or four episodes are kind rough, but stick with it it picks up super quicker and then every episode is fantastic.) Seasons 9 and 10 were just OK and you can stop at season 8 as the show was originally planned to end there.

Stargate Atlantis is also great. I thought I would be a bad spinoff, but it has been just as good and the cast of characters is really great.

I have not watched the others yet as I’m near the end of Atlantis still.

They have tons of references to Trek and show a clear respect towards it. You will also see tons of Trek actors making cameo appearances.

I don’t think learning how to use. AI is going to save their job. Because AI will do their job there’s nothing for them to do. I’m not saying it right. I’m just saying I don’t think her advice is right.

This is the real way to hurt a company. Once an open source version exists, even if it is not as good as the commercial offering, they will have trouble convincing people to pay for what they are selling.

Of course, they should be compensated for their work, but if you can build it yourself then the cost to a company does not need to be much higher than the costs of parts and labor for someone else to do it for you.

One of the things I want to do is build decent applications and release them for free so people can get the same functionality of their paid apps but not need to pay anything.

Main thing stopping me is time.

My vote doesn’t matter as I’m from a state that has been democratic since I was born.

If this was ever going to pass, it would be during this time.

I’d love it so much if this were the case.

When this is all over hopefully international relations can be rebuilt on the basis of temporary insanity.

That’s a lot of fucking honey!

Are you trolling?

I mean how long have you been running 30 minutes twice a week?

How long have you been doing it? I remember when I was first getting into running and struggling like this.

I forget how much time it was, but within a year, I was running a 5k at least twice a week. In addition to that, I ran 8k twice, but that was pretty intense and I had a lot of pain after doing that. So, I stopped doing that.

What I am trying to say is just keep with it and if you are running a pace that causes you breath so heavy. that you can’t talk, then slow down your pace.

I couldn’t quickly find any information on streaming services. I’d love to swap out the slow smart tv ui for this, but if my wife has to fumble with webbrowers using a tv remote, it will not last.

It is allowing me to do things that I could not do on my own due to time constraints. It also allows me to do stuff that I could not afford to do (generate my company logo and variations of the mascot for social media posts.)

I know a lot of people think I am rich, but I live in a third world country and hardly have any extra to save, so I truly can’t afford to pay a graphic designer to do that work. I actually did once, on upwork, but the vector work she did was terrible and she couldn’t figure out how to remove these thick black lines. ChatGPT was able to fix it though.

Took me a while to get back to this. I got a bit sick over the weekend. Anyway, the opensource scheduling software is not too great. I am a little surprised by it as there are a few commercial options or opensource options that lock certain features behind a paywall even when selfhosting, like cal.com.

Cal.com is the only software that provides the feature set I need, but they charge about as much per user as Zoom does and it pisses me off that it’s so expensive to have a shared calendar so my clients will simply book a time and date and have round robin logic applied to who the client gets assigned to.

Because of this, I am slowly working on building my own scheduling system that I will selfhost. I am mostly vibecoding it as I am too busy running a small company to dedicate time to coding it properly, but that is some tech I can easily test for functionality and fix down the line when there is more time or money.

simplybook.me is another service I came across, but they charge you based on how many features you enable, and you basically can’t use their system for scheduling without adding on a bunch of features. Once your trial ends, you can’t turn off the features and go back to the free version without signing up for a pro account or whatever they call it.

I think is people don’t like it they don’t need to use it. I’m ok with rules stating ai generated content must be labeled though. I wouldn’t even mind a toggle so it could just be turned off.

But it is tech that is here to stay. It is useful to many people.

I’ve been looking into this a bit already. I’m actually on a road trip and will start driving soon, but if your respond to this comment I can fill you in on what I’ve learning in the next day or two.

Is this the Stargate sub?

Was that this bad guy in Episode 7?

I think the creator of the was interviewed at some point and they acknowledged that the font was a knockoff of the font he made. If I am misremembering, please correct me.
