My parents’ conservative bubble of news has informed them that the starvation is because Hamas shoots at Palestinians who try to get aid.

(I told them, “Wow, so Hamas and the IDF have something in common?”)

Update: The psychiatrist who looked at her said she had too much weed -_- . I’m really disappointed in the doctor but she had finally slept and sounded more coherent then

There might be something to that. Psychosis enhanced by weed is not unheard of. As I’ve read, weed has been shown in studies to bring out schizophrenic symptoms in people predisposed to it. Not that it causes it, just brings it out in some people.

I say this as someone who loves weed and consumes it frequently. Just like any psychoactive chemical, it’s going to have different effects on different people. We all know alcohol causes psychosis all the fucking time but we just roll with it.

Uh… didn’t this happen like 7 years ago when they stopped using intel chips?

I think they were still releasing updates for the non-Apple Silicon Macs, which meant Hackintosh was still possible.

Also why not just buy a pc to do this diy-adjacent bullshit? Not like you can’t get Mac equivalent (or better) hardware for literally the same price these days. It’s not 2004.

That’s what a Hackintosh is though. It’s running Mac on non-Apple hardware.

Try cleaning out the USB-C port. Lint gets compacted in there and it can prevent the plug from seating correctly. Most charging problems I’ve had were resolved by scraping the lint out of the port, with a plastic floss pick thing or an unbent staple. Careful not to damage the contacts though.

I wish my parents paid as much attention as your aunt. The other day they gave me the very good news that all the articles I send them about the genocide are made up! The BBC had to rescind their articles because the sources aren’t trustworthy, they told me. So no genocide at all!

😐

It was a Regrettable Incident.

Well good news, it’s gonna be the future soon.

It also helps to be as far south as possible. You get to use more momentum to help get orbit, if I understand it correctly.

IIRC, that’s why NASA launches from Florida. That and the coast making launch failures safer.

(But I am not a physicist.)

Oh don’t worry, I wasn’t accusing you of saying they were worthless. I was just voicing my own concern for some of my former coworkers.

Having worked in a call center (doing survey research) during college, there are a lot of people employed by such places who really wouldn’t have many employment options anywhere else.

I remember saying, while there, that the entire industry would be replaced by AI in 10-15 years. They all scoffed, saying they had ways to get people to answer surveys that an AI wouldn’t be able to do. I told them they were being naive.

Here we are.

That said, I do worry about some of those people. Just because they were borderline unemployable doesn’t mean they were worthless.
