You can also preserve Bananas by making dried Banana chips. Having too much of a fresh/shelf unstable crop could be a problem in any economic system.

I’m surprised some food processer isn’t buying them to make into pudding or something.

Carrots had this issue, but some started processing them into bite sized pieces.

Question, does this offend you?

It’s sort of always this way. Some new advancement comes out and a whole lot of snake oil salesmen come out of the woodwork trying to come up with other ways to sell the new tech. AI and LLMs do have their uses, but not nearly the way it’s being hyped.

During the Nuclear hype, everyone was trying to solve every problem with nukes or radiation somehow. Luckily, it didn’t get very far.

So are we not counting the Bolsheviks as “communists” when they murdered their anarchist allies? Because they certainly said they were.

Trump’s incompetence does not preclude him from being a Russian asset. His buttons are easy to press if you can get access to him.

And the military co-opted those feelings in their recruitment ads. That and college tuition.

It’s true and terrible. It ways rubbed me the wrong way that whenever there was a natural disaster or terror attack overseas, the news would always make sure to mention the deaths of American tourists. There’s ads for new Jeeps that mention that you’ll be able to SAVE OTHER AMERICANS with it. Annoying as hell.

When I was called to serve in Bush II’s wars, I refused. It should be a way easier decision this time.

No, not really. I said “most left option”. Use shitty centrists to get ride of the fascists, then start getting in real left wing people and clear out the centrists. Rightwingers played a long game by shifting the overton window over. But like I said, that or the fourth box option.

There’s a strong political bias on who would renounce their citizenship and they don’t want those people voting.

That I don’t have a learning disability and don’t let them place me in any remedial classes, ever.

You then vote for the next, most left option and keep doing that. People not voting consistently is how things kept shifting to the right. Or the fourth box option. Either way, just don’t encourage inaction.

Real audience or botted audience?

I thought Gimp was a kink thing.

A lot of things.
