Ha! You’re right. I didn’t mean it was open source. I did mean that it was available.

Idk about as powerful as gpt 4, but openrouter.ai has a ton of open source models you can use, including gpt 4.

Use your preferred AI to write the letter for you!

I study rhetoric as a hobby and think of myself as a writer sometimes.

Island nations are facing rising sea levels thanks to climate change.

Failed college when I was around 18 or so. I wallowed for a bit, but eventually I developed a really strong drive to learn. I may have been dumb, but that doesn’t mean I couldn’t be smarter if I tried.

Long story short, I joined the Navy to go back to school to get my degree and now I have a fantastic job that’s beyond easy.

But that drive to learn new stuff cannot by quenched now. I want to learn everything!

What’s true of the lesser must be true of the greater

…the more extreme and violent capitalism is the evidence. It can only do this so many times…

The concept of enshittification.

Granted, the concept applies specifically to platforms, but the idea is basically what capitalism is:

• Be good to everyone
• Be good to suppliers (supply-side economics)
• Be good to shareholders and, subsequently, alienate both users and suppliers of content. The platform collapses.

Late-stage capitalism is when shareholder wealth is maximized at the expense everyone else. So you have 3 billionaires with 50% of the wealth of all humanity or something, the middle class squeezed into oblivion, and a roiling undercurrent of pure fucking rage ready to sever heads like watermelons from a vine.

Well, in what context is 1984’s Newspeak welcome? I’d say it’s as insulting as any sarcastic remark. Otherwise…it’s fine.

I’ve used Dota 2 as a crutch for years, stopping it every now and then when I felt it was interfering with my personal development or school work.

I’m a moment of stoppage now…and man, having the time to write (I like to write), or play with AI stuff or clean my home or pack (we’re moving soon) is really nice. I don’t have that intense inner pressure that comes with winning or losing an online multiplayer game, which just opens up so much space for everything else.

I think, like Obsidian, it stores them as markdown files.

Then Logseq. It’s an outliner (each line can be it’s own…thing…), but it’s open source and a direct competitor of Obsidian. In fact, I was ambivalent between the two when I first started with online note-taking.

No, no, like the career field of business as a whole sucks. I’m in a finance, doing budgeting bullshit, and…I want to do something else. But I still have at least 3 years left, so…I’m plotting on a career transition shortly thereafter.

The Continuing Saga of My Life

My Life: Movin’ On Up! Makin’ Moves!

Business Sucks.

That’s it. Business Sucks.

CCleaner started with ads so we moved to BleachBit

The esteemed privilege of potentially dying in the new American hellscape! You must envy me so much!

Really, it’s what apathy about my countrymen and women looks like. I really think we hate each other. While many on the left continue to prove me wrong to this very moment, and I see them, I honestly do not think they’ll win in the end.

Well, it’s the weekend, so, I’m going to do homework and play video games.

Frankly, fuck America. Most of the country clearly wants this. So I’ll let them have it. And sure, I might die, but then I’ll be done with all this bullshit and won’t have worry anymore. And when the people who wanted the dystopia the US will become have a change of heart and realize they manufactured their own chains and locked them before throwing away the key, I’ll only regret I won’t be here to say I told you so.

They’re saying it’s the Democrats fault because the should have saved McCarthy from himself

Now that is a good argument!
