I had a dream last night that the PS5 was going to get an update to allow it to play physical PS1 and 2 games. Woke up and said to myself, "buddy, they don't even want it playing physical PS5 games!"
What’s wild here is that grammar checking was always AI. They just switched it to LLM-based AI, and it instantly got worse. Really tells a story about how useful LLMs are.

My fiancée and I recently watched As Good as It Gets and every twenty minutes I paused and asked her what she thought the rest of the movie would be and every time she was so completely flabbergasted as the most recent developments that she just couldn't guess.

Casual reminder that the myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.
I am morally against buying tickets to a movie four months before it comes out.
