My EV is easily and by far the best and most fun to drive (and cheapest to run) car I’ve ever owned.
Absolutely my favourite vehicle to drive ever, easily more fun to drive than a lovely automatic petrol BMW I borrowed a couple of times.

Before the EU legislated that banks should all make it easy to automatically transfer all bill payments etc over to a new current account, you would need to set these up yourself on your new account. There’s only one reason really that you would ask for all of that information, and the bank knew I was taking physical action to leave them.


When the lion is explaining what’s best for the giraffes, do the opposite.


My previous bank was messing me around and making things awkward for me, so I rang them up and told them they needed to fix it to go back to the way I wanted, or I was taking our current account and savings accounts elsewhere. They just told me they couldn’t by policy. I made a complaint. They said they couldn’t by policy.
I did my research over the next couple of weeks and then I walked into a branch and asked for a printout of all my direct debits and standing orders. The teller did as I asked. That evening I got a phone call apologising and offering me exactly what I asked for.
No. Fuck you. You didn’t listen, you didn’t believe me, you just shat on me for as long as you thought it didn’t affect you, and then as soon as you saw I evidence I was serious now you want to fix it? No. Fuck off. Good riddance. I got myself a new bank thank you very much, where I got to choose how it worked.
The time to keep me was when I asked nicely or when I asked nicely again or when I complained. Once I’ve put time in researching other options, it’s way too late.


Yep. Me too.


Fuck that.


That’s a clickbaity title.


using a modern-language translation alone could draw that condemnation from some commenters
You’re hinting that it’s in some sense invalid to quote the New Testament in some other language than Greek or something?!
I think you want to scrape the bark off two trees in the hope that once you’re done people won’t see the forest.


It literally links to BibleGateway. Or did the first three paragraphs make you so cross that you stopped reading then and there?
I don’t think hitting is under represented AT ALL on the internet. 20 years ago you would only see that if you followed BDSM links. Now it’s everywhere.


Why the fuck is the military of a country, especially one with supposedly separated church and state, maintaining an official list of religions??? Why is the defense secretary choosing religions???


If it completely blocked the doorway, yes.


Absolutely this is the plan.
The Pedophile-in-Chief is ok with it, even though he personally prefers them to be teenaged, he’ll gladly start a war and crash the global economy to defend him and his pedo pals from too much scrutiny in the Epstein files.




That’s… not religious freedom, Jenna. That’s the opposite of religious freedom, and the government policing religion is the opposite of what the founding fathers wanted.


Your 40% depends a lot on how you ask the questions and the field of these questions.
Dude, they fail that exam with even worse error rates than I see!
When you can verify it, it’s OFTEN and REGULARLY wrong. It’s stupid to trust if for anything you can’t personally verify.
The designed purpose of LLMs is to respond to human interaction, not to be correct. They are the showoff who pretends he can answer every question. They are the confident drunkard at the bar who will tell you anything that pops into their head. Intelligent, knowledgeable people say “I don’t know” when they don’t know. LLMs don’t do that. Ever. Trouble is, they don’t “know” anything. They’re a chatbot from the bottom up. Chatbot through and through. It’s their fundamental nature.
Yes there was knowledge and deep understanding in their training data. Also, I ate chicken curry for tea. However, I am not a chicken, I do not cluck, I haven’t started eating worms, I cannot produce any chicken, and my poop is not chicken either. My poop smells faintly of curry. So it is with LLMs and the knowledge and understanding in their training data.


How come it’s inaccurate about 40% of the time when I know the answer then? It’s a bullshit factory. A chatbot that’s fundamentally designed to sound like a person and be able to respond to any prompt. But truth isn’t any part of the fundamental architecture of an LLM.


And which vehicle you go to work in dwarfs them both. Two things can be true at the same time.
All the shit going on in the USA just now and this is what drives you to murder?
(I assumed you’re American because of the culturally dominant idea that it’s ok to shoot people if it grants you a bit more personal liberty.)
