️ The stamps were my favorite.

Well I'm not eating candy again. I'm going to watch the whole video because a woman breaks down all the test results and gives alternatives to various products.

The anti-hooning candidate!

That's wonderful!

It's all Greek to me.

@Daniel Actually, I don't think it's all dumb. I think calling it intelligence is dumb, and insulting to mankind. But the problem is the way AI is being developed and enveloping society by a handful of tech corporations, some of whom are showing clear signs of fascism. Congress should do its duty and put the brakes on AI until a clear understanding of its damaging effects is better understood. What negative side effects will AI bring? What danger will it pose to the safety of citizens? How can it be controlled by other than the profit seeking sector? The power in this country belongs to the people, not corporations who will do anything for power and money.

It is a great photo!

How can anyone do that at 91?!

Well, assuming they made no scientific mistake, and a living thing lived for 24,000 years, or came back to life after being frozen for 24,000 year... is this meant to be about the idea that deceased human beings might be frozen (they are being frozen) and brought back to life in the future? I've always thought this idea was macabre, and I do not believe it is possible or will ever be possible. Imo, these matters or only decided by God (or by the Universe, if you like).

Interesting. I don't think we've been told the full truth about Fukushima, btw. I don't think we ever will be told the full truth about it.

A few more that didn't make it, and the one that won... (starts at 16:03 in case it doesn't start there) Link to video

Thanks. I received a notification in writing when I checked my scroll down notifications. It gave me the option to unsubscribe and to report spam. I did both. I also when through specific app notification permissions in my setting and turned off the ones I didn't want. So, in fairness to FB, it has nothing to do with FB. Ok.

Yes, it's an old university. I've actually been there. A lot of impressive scholarship happens there. The renaissance of authentic instruments, performance techniques, and textual analysis of composers' texts in classical music happened there. I, personally, far prefer Cambridge, for many reasons I won't bore you with, though. Again, I'm reminded how young the US is as a nation state. Impressive architecture is ubiquitous in the UK. Love it.

@Axtremus that was such a cool video!! Thank you for posting it!! I am going to share it with one of my friends here who teaches Chinese linguistics, I bet he can use it in with his class.

It's a freakish thing to give a prize for that. What a twisted mind.

I had no idea he was 81. I think of of him as one of the “young” conductors…

Things I didn't know: AP was founded in the V de J. I certainly didn't know this. VC and PP were founded in Geneva. I knew this. VC, PP, and AP have manufacturing facilities in the V de J. I had no idea. It's not every day I learn something new about watches. I'm glad I found this ad. 1stDibs site is great selling with its categories. It's good to have along with auction sites, some retail stores in the US (Rau Antiques in New Orleans, Lang in San Francisco) [edit- and in the UK] and the companies' sites. I almost always look at jewelry when I go to 1stDibs. I think I'll make a "picture book" for myself when I get my office set up. I can print pictures and text of jewels and watches, and organize all of it in a large binder. I'd include famous jewelry and crown jewels, and mineralogy. I think that would be a satisfying and relaxing project for me.

Thank you Chas!
