3151 hrs of overtime.

78.775 full-time 40 hour weeks there.

So assuming 2 weeks of vacation, he somehow managed to work 128.775 weeks in a year?

128.775/50 - let's see how many work weeks he had to work each week to get there - 2.5755

So each week he had to be working about 2.6 normal weeks, or about 103 hours a week.

Assuming he worked 7 days each week, he was doing 14.7 hour shifts every day of those 50 weeks of working 7 days with no breaks.

Hmm.

Never, ever elect Republicans.

Does anyone else feel like these national leagues have become just as disconnected from reality as any other hyper capitalist enterprise?

I want more hometown sports. I daydream about leagues funded by local communities, starring local talent, with smaller local crowds. Is there anyone else out there who would give much more of a shit if things were a little more close to home, reality-wise? Am I alone?

Guys getting paid literally hundreds of millions to play a sport is unrelatable. A local star making $300k and being a part of the community feels better to me. Seems like we should be able to afford a lot of those for the money we are spending.

I know next to nothing about sports or the business around them, but I know I remember summer nights with cheap hotdogs and minor league ball that seem to have evaporated as the wealthy accumulated. 🤷‍♂️

You just did it. 🤷‍♂️

You continue to spout things with no citations and a bad vibe. I am done here.

That prompt modification "directed Grok to provide a specific response on a political topic" and "violated xAI's internal policies and core values," xAI wrote on social media.

Relevant quote because one of us didn't read the article for sure.

Edit: not to mention that believing a system prompt somehow binds or constrains rather than influences these systems would also indicate to me that one of us definitely doesn't understand how these work, either.

lol at 3/4 of a megabyte of Vue components being ok and thinking node_modules is the issue at hand.

Why was it mentioning it at all in conversations not about it?

And why does the fact that it did that not seem to bother you?

A farce, if you go by the last time I tried it a year or two ago. And before you tell me I need to keep checking it out: I backed the kickstarter. I have given them plenty of time.

If this ever magically becomes a game, great. As it is, it's been one very long grift and I am glad I didn't give them anything beyond what I lost in that initial backing.

Have we tried putting them in a room together? Maybe they'd make like matter and antimatter and we could all hear a little less bullshit all the time. 🤷‍♂️

Because they have never actually been fiscally conservative. That is one of the lies they always use to get elected. Then they leave huge deficits in their wake that Dems end up paying down without anyone noticing or caring. It's exhausting - this information is easily obtainable and it has happened over and over and over.

 

[Jury Nullification] is when the jury in a criminal trial gives a verdict of not guilty even though they think a defendant has broken the law. The jury's reasons may include the belief that the law itself is unjust

Until the wealthy and powerful are held to account, why punish your fellow everyday citizens? Use your brain. Decide if what they're charging people with is suppression or actually keeping society safe.

When those prosecutors start losing these cases, maybe they will start to rethink who they are focusing on.

 

... at least how it'd be for me.

 

I saw other reports in the recent call for problems of errors around searching, but this seems, to me at least, to be reproducible.

edit: to be clear, this is using fedia.io - I am not sure if this bug affects mbin/kbin more generally, I've only tested on fedia.io.
