This gives me Revelation 6:15-17 vibes
15 Everyone hid in caves and among the rocks of the mountains. This included the kings of the earth, the princes and the generals. It included rich people and powerful people. It also included everyone else, both slaves and people who were free. 16 They called out to the mountains and rocks, “Fall on us! Hide us from the face of the one who sits on the throne! Hide us from the anger of the Lamb! 17 The great day of their anger has come. Who can live through it?”
Remember the dead internet theory. Reddit makes money from advertisers if they have more engagement. Id estimate 80% of those main subreddits are Bots. There is no way of verifying if they are real humans. Stop engaging with Bots
The show being pushed by Netflix worries me. I think they are in damage control mode and getting ahead of it. They painted many of the key figures as "Not that bad" - Feel really bad for Drake Bell, but for him to come out now and basically defend Dan Schneider with the "Actually he was the only one who ever checked in and asked If I was alright" and really targeting three specific people on set who "Only sent pictures but didn't touch" (Outside of Drake Bells rape) makes me feel like they are trying to downplay it all.
Again, watching it I was disgusted, but couldnt help feel like it was all too perfect. The people who worked on the shows and spoke out only really had a "Well it felt kind of weird but there wasn't anything worse than giving him a back massage on the set floor" - Making it a "hostile work environment" rather than the horrendous crimes going on.
I could be really taking this wrong, and this could be a really good start, but to me felt more damage control and less putting them in their place.
This criminalizes everyday good people. Notice how every backpack is required to be searched. So I can carry a machette in my coat and get right in, but normal people going to work are required to open their packs? Disgraceful.
I wouldnt mind having the option. Honestly, once they come down in price, I'd likely have one as my second car. Me or my wife would drive it to work where there is a charging station - Its always fully charged in the morning and I plug it in at night. For taking the kids to school, grocery shopping, etc. They are truly convenient as I dont need to stop at a gas station for any of that. For long road trips, no thank you. I'll take my regular car
I am a year late on this trend but I still think its worth sharing - I have been taking NAC 600mg 3x a day (1800mg a day). I suffer from shortness of breath and low blood oxygen levels. My range of O2 saturation was a low of 85% and highs of 97%. After taking NAC 3x daily for about 4 weeks, my apple watch trends have been shocking. Noticing that I have been feeling way better is one thing, but seeing the lows of my O2 levels go from 85% lows, to 87%, 90%, 92%, etc is crazy. The slow increase over the days shocked me. I am now bottoming out at 97% O2 and topping at 100%!
I also currently have the virus and I feel fine. I have had it before and I felt like death. Now, with NAC, Zinc (50mg), Copper(2mg), Vitamin C (1,000IU), D3 (5,000IU), Fish Oil, and Rhodiola Extract (2x daily 250mg) - My symptoms are so mild. I also am taking Elderberry 4x daily (2TBSP).
For the lazy:
2 Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.
4 The god of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the light of the gospel that displays the glory of Christ, who is the image of God.
19 Jesus gave them this answer: “Very truly I tell you, the Son can do nothing by himself; he can do only what he sees his Father doing, because whatever the Father does the Son also does.
This whole thing reminds me of a movie "White Noise" which Netflix released in august 2022 about a town in Ohio that had a train derailment that led to toxic chemicals released and the entire town was covered by a black cloud that killed people by breathing and the government told everyone everything was safe…
Please read where it was filmed, and the plot. It is the EXACT thing happening now
To dive deeper, there was a sequel to it, Olympus has fallen, which is the same movie but in the USA. If you follow the release date of March 18, 2013 and follow the same pattern (6 years, 6 months, and 6 days) you arrive to September 24, 2019 which is the exact day that Nancy Pelosi announces the formal impeachment inquiry into US President. Hollywood trying to take down Trump (Olympus) but failed?
I truly appreciate this sentiment. I think we all learn and grow and now I know to push back. At the time it was so crazy and the pressure was pretty intense. I have a lot of people relying on my job and losing it wasn’t a risk i could take. Never made my kids get it though. So happy about that.
This isn’t anything. Why did you circle the young mothers? That trend is fine as if you look at the 30+ groups you’ll find the 20,000 less births in young mothers made up for in the older group. People are having babies later in life.
I worked on Machine Learning algorithms when I was studying Computer Science back in the late 2010s. These AI models are just that...models. They are really LLMs that are really good ate giving answers back to questions. This doesnt make them correct and with more training, the more accurate they are getting but dont think for a second these models are anything other than code.
They are doing amazing things and help everyday people learn and make their lives better if used right, but the government doesnt own AI, I run my own local LLM on my own hardware. They can control the large companies and squash competition like they always do
