Two marvels in one: the Norman portal on the West front is unrivalled in the county, with seven orders of decoration, built of beautiful sage-green stone from Tarten Down at nearby Landrake. The wooden door was commissioned in 1903 by the Countess of St Germans, and sports a bronze door handle designd by Henry Wilson, featuring beautifully tactile fish. Also shown in my profile image.

I still show up to Microsoft office after layoffs and 23-year career
Freddy Kristiansen, 59, was laid off in May after 23 years working for Microsoft's Denmark office. He's still turning up to the office.Joshua Nelken-Zitser (Business Insider)
Per Danish labour laws, as he has worked there for more than 9 years, he has a nine month notice, meaning that while he got fired in May, he still gets paid, and has to come to work until November (minus any flex time and vacation he's due).
This is nothing new to Scandinavian workers.

@LordCaramac I'd assume that has something to do with how GPT2 was a lot more loosely fine-tuned than GPT3 and subsequent models.
GPT2 was more of an attempt at simply mimicking text, rather than mimicking text *in an explicitly conversational, upbeat, helpful tone designed to produce mass-market acceptable language*
Like how GPT2 would usually just do the thing you asked for, whereas GPT3 and others now all start with "Certainly! Here's a..." or something similar.

does this new promo from MH Now use AI? was pumped to see SF featured in the latest season, but a lot of details in the image look...questionable...like the 2 story ramp happening on the left side, or the oddly shaped palm trees. could totally see most being composite, but key elements def look like someone asked Photoshop to make a stuff and we got these visual guesstimates.
what do you think?
During last night's attack on Kyiv, Putin's drones killed 9 more citizens in the capital.
How long will the world continue to accept, that one man keeps murdering people in frustration with his own failed war?
We should not wait for Washington to introduce the long awaited devastating sanctions on Russia. We should ourselves introduce such sanctions right now.

@lin11c I actually disagree. Militarily, Putin is making a huge mistake by wasting his missiles on hitting civilian apartment blocks.
The fact that Ukraine tries to bomb only military targets is both the legal way of fighting a war, and it is much more efficient.

- Oil Prices could spike by 30–50%+ almost immediately
- Global Inflation likely Rises

Attivistə del gruppo britannico Everyone Hates Elon e di Greenpeace Italia hanno srotolato un enorme striscione di 20x20 metri in Piazza San Marco con la scritta:
“Se puoi affittarti Venezia per il tuo matrimonio, puoi anche pagare più tasse.”
Un messaggio forte contro l’ipocrisia di #Bezos e dei miliardari che si arricchiscono grazie a pratiche fiscali aggressive, mentre i costi sociali, ambientali e climatici ricadono su tuttə noi.

Il video inizia con un'immagine aerea di un gruppo di persone che si riuniscono su una piazza pavimentata, tenendo un grande striscione bianco. Inizialmente, il striscione è parzialmente visibile e le persone lo stanno srotolando. Il gruppo è composto da individui di diverse età e stili, alcuni dei quali indossano abiti casual. Un bambino in un vestito rosa è visibile a sinistra del gruppo. Sul lato destro dell'immagine, c'è una persona che cammina con un passeggino. Il gruppo lavora insieme per srotolare il striscione, che si rivelerà essere un messaggio politico. Il testo sullo striscione, una volta completamente srotolato, recita: "If you can rent Venice for your wedding, you can pay more tax." Questo messaggio critica la ricchezza e la spesa per eventi esclusivi, sottolineando il contrasto tra la ricchezza e le imposte. La piazza è circondata da edifici storici con tetti rossi, e l'immagine è ripresa da un'angolazione elevata, offrendo una vista panoramica della piazza e del contesto urbano circostante.

The image shows a husky dog lying on a person's lap, with its head resting on the person's thigh. The husky has a distinctive black and white coat with a mix of gray and white fur on its back. Its eyes are a striking blue, and it has a relaxed expression. The person's leg is visible, covered by dark blue shorts with a white stripe. In the background, there is a bicycle leaning against the wall and a computer monitor on a desk. The room has a light-colored wall and a window with blinds. Another dog, possibly a black and tan husky, is lying behind the husky in the foreground. The scene appears to be indoors, likely in a living room or bedroom.

The text reads: "DON'T BOW DOWN TO THE LYIN' KING." The word "LYIN'" is underlined in red. The sign also features a drawing of a lion's head with a patterned mane, resembling an Egyptian pharaoh's headdress.
