AI art is nothing more than a tool. I wonder how many billions of hours it will take it just to catch up to me. Hint: I don't make cheap posters.

Yes, yes, Bletchly Park took a hit today. I'm a big crypto fan; enlightening and it looks like most of the other nerds are elsewhere, lol. Typical.

You're a binge drinker already. The next thing is a slow slide into everyday drinking, then you'll "discover" vodka and eventually die a slow miserable death.

When you acheive generalist mastery you'll be very skilled. You'll work circles around almost anyone. Happiness will be in your hands. (but some angry apprentices will want to kill you, be careful.)

A spammer spammed through my account. I complained. Facebook cleaned it up. The next day I texted a friend and they locked my account. It was a fantastic experience. Quitting Facebook was just that easy!!!

That's not first stage armor, roflmao. These are molotov guards. Most of the bottles will bounce off this and break open elsewhere and keep the upper crew hatch clear of fire.
