I don’t know how generative AI works (hah! Who does?) but I imagine they had to feed the first image back into into the system. So it was feeding on its own slop which just adds more noise

I was thinking about this today too. Sovereign citizen is too euphemistic. Outlaw or scofflaw is more appropriate
Correct
The tabs are great
My pakeha/asian sons love learning Te Reo
Fair enough. Perhaps I should have said that it’s implied that he _should_ win?
@gruber.foo what the judge seems to miss in the rules of _Calvin_ball is that implicit in the name and the first rule is that Calvin always wins. What she is describing then is better described as Trumpball
Poop poop
The sad thing is he probably doesn’t even need to ask for all this tat any longer. He’s bound to be surrounded by brown-nosing sycophants who spend all day thinking up new ways to stroke his bloated ego
So we can have energy efficiency or we can have abundant “AI”
Espresso really arrived in Wellington in the mid to late 80s with Midnight Espresso and Espressoholic. Can’t speak for the rest of the country. Sounds like Melbourne was the 50s and Sydney by the late 60s when my mother was there.

And I'm looking for either a part-time position or short term contract. Interested in writing work or public good-type comms. Life's too short to do stuff you don't believe in. Message if you know of anything that might be of interest.
I’d also argue that learning ANY additional language that has regular spelling/pronunciation is good for your wee brain. It would teach you implicitly, that spelling can be simple and is therefore an achievable aim. Learning English is hard.

I like them as a mechanism for near automatic head fuck but of course it all depends on the quality of the film/show. Now that I think of it, didn’t Donny Darko have one too? I have seen it in over 20 years but I remember loving that
Seen quokkas in the wild. Didn’t realise I was hallucinating. The platypus however
Holy fuck. Someone with the resources should take this and use it to bury those horrible bigots. They do not represent a majority of this nation that they are trying so hard to fracture
LOL! Oh, he’ll be competent
Well, fucking duh

So so so sweet. 🤢
In AoNZ most ordinary salaried workers don’t need to file annual returns any longer. It’s all calculated automatically. In fact this year I got an email to say I was due a rebate and the money was in my account the next day.
Could this be the happy clapper sense of dominion rather than stewardship over nature we’re seeing? I have a lot of trouble trusting people in power who believe in a magical book that tells them how to act.

PM wants NZ to get behind development, progress, stem tide of Kiwis leaving for Oz? If he’s serious I reckon I know how he could do that. Resign, or better yet, call a snap election
Why do I support abolishing the MMP threshold? Why do I defend the right to speak? Because it’s the right thing to do. Why do these cretins do anything? Because it benefits themselves. Ugh.
Don’t call Americans ‘clever’. TIL
Clever?
They expect Hamas to disarm and not partake in future government which likely makes it a hollow offer. Northern Ireland is at peace and I understand no such requirement was placed on Sinn Fein in the Good Friday Agreement
Consciously it seems
Like the English did when they first arrived?

Um. Language does have a way of doing this. Let’s try. American scones are not American biscuits. American scones are not British/Oz/AoNZ scones. American biscuits are not British/Oz/AoNZ biscuits. American biscuits are British/Oz/AoNZ scones.
I usually refer to them as the notNational party. Hard to swallow but I just wish now that the current government was the same old notLabour party that we got used to under Johnkey.
Sounds cool when you say it like that. Shame

Further fun fact. For a few short years Oz had both BK and HJ competing against each other. The Wikipedia has most of the details
Where I live we don’t call them rutabagas. I think your headline would be far more ambiguous if you used the English word
That’s interesting. I’ll have to look out for that in future

I pay rates, tax, and road user charges and I desperately want to see more protected cycle lanes and significantly less on street parking
I can only aspire to amateur status. 🤓 BTW how do you do those glorious italics?
I take your point but wish folk wouldn’t use _that_ word so much in the pejorative. After all amateurs do what they do because they love it.
It’s all identity politics. None of it is logical
Yes. We’re going to hear a lot about of blah blah blah about capital gains tax as the next election approaches when we should be talking about wealth taxes.

Labour believe Labour should be in power. If they believed in anything else you’d think they would have policies that reflect that

Truly idiotic take. The “AI” they’re talking about is an over juiced autocorrect. It has no consciousness and cannot think. It cannot lie and it cannot plan. It is a string of words
So Libelle's problems weren't just financial: Ministry of Education officials warned about food safety failures going back to 2021 and tried to get the group it was part of excluded from the school lunch tender. They were ignored. This should be a scandal. www.thepress.co.nz/nz-news/3607...
