Thoughts on thinking • Dustin Curtis
I have been stuck. Every time I sit down to write a blog post, code a feature, or start a project, I come to the same realization: in the context of AI, what I’m doing is a waste of time. It’s horrifying. The fun has been sucked out of the process...Dustin Curtis on Svbtle

Its the "ask your doctor" part. There shouldn't be ads for things. You doctor should be the one to recommend, not commercials, this is the only nation that allows this. Most drugs have 32 or more side effects but that's based mostly on genetics or metabolism, but the ones I have, I don't have said side effects, because they are ones that work for me. Adderol gives me massive anxiety for I stopped taking it, and we tried the depression based route for ADHD and I finally am no longer in fear of losing my job. I did a genetic study through the VA and I have a weird ass metabolism, to the point that ibuprofen and zoloft does nothing for me, several antacids end up giving me depression. The 32 side effects aren't something most of the population experience, but a small genetic handful do which is why they need to be looked for until its been established that its safe. This is completely misleading.

Ohnmacht im Cockpit: Lufthansa-Jet flog zehn Minuten ohne Pilot
Im Februar 2024 flog eine Lufthansa-Maschine über Spanien zehn Minuten lang unkontrolliert auf Autopilot. Der Flugkapitän war auf Toilette, sein Co-Pilot fiel in Ohnmacht. Nun liegt ein Untersuchungsbericht vor.
10 Minuten auf dem Klo???
Ansonsten die Flugzeuge fliegen doch (abgesehen vom Starten und Landen) sowieso fast immer auf Autopilot, also sehe da nicht wirklich ein so großes Drama...
Und was soll bitte diese Wortwahl "unkontrolliert auf Autopilot"? War die Maschine nun Unkontrolliert oder auf Autopilot?
“[Fascism] disempowers you, recasts where you live in a darker light and breeds a disabling paranoia about the people you share the world with…
Black bloc antifascism and community self-defence are rarely attractive to a mass audience but their purchase is exacerbated by the inadequacies and discrepancies of a timid, liberal anti-racism which flinches from challenging structural racism…
The priority needs to be mass community mobilisation in which you can outnumber and demoralise the fascists, emboldening those who seek to defeat the far right’s street presence, whilst also making the hardcore fascists look distasteful amongst their soft support.”
