the proper US Board on Geographic Names’s official process not being followed for the name change.

This is the theme of this administration. Doing whatever they want with no regard for process. This gulf of “America” nonsense truly feels like the actions of a believed king or emperor. A frivolous decree that doesn’t change anything, doesn’t materially affect anything, just an opportunity to exercise their believed power.

Why do you think AI doesn’t exist? Or that there’s “no such thing as people ‘relying’ on it”? “AI” is commonly used to refer to LLMs right now. Within the context of a gizmodo article summarizing a study on the subject, “AI” does exist. A lack of precision doesn’t mean it’s not descriptive of a real thing.

Also, I don’t personally know anyone who “relies” on generative AI, but I don’t see why it couldn’t happen.

Baking - fresh warm bread is so good!

Second this! Just made bread a few days ago using the King Arthur easy bread recipe and sure enough it was super easy and came out really good!

I was out one night with my dad looking through a telescope at the Orion Nebula when suddenly I noticed one of the stars was moving. It was a dim light and I figured it was a satellite. I tracked it for a while, but then it came to a stop and went the other way. My dad and I swapped off tracking it for probably 10 minutes watching it come almost to a stop and go a different direction several times.

I haven’t the slightest idea what I saw. It was small and dim and sometimes it was hard to pick it out from the other stars. I imagine it had to of been either pretty small or far away. Either way it didn’t make any sense.

Hats off to the creator of LW, it can’t be easy running a server this big. I do hope we don’t just dominate the fediverse though, would kinda defeat the purpose of it.
