I often go hours, hours I tell you, without drinking. I blame it on the annoyingly human need to sleep coupled with the extremely high price of pharmaceutical grade cocaine.

The struggle is real.

Ugh, sleep. Must be a Millennial thing.

I max out at four hours a night - frequently non-consecutive hours. Too much shit I want to get done.

Holy shit. Scientists created net-positive energy from nuclear fusion today. Game-changer.

Awesome news.

"The amount of energy they've generated in this experiment is tiny - just enough to boil a few kettles. But what it represents is huge.
The promise of a fusion-powered future is one step closer. But there's still a long way to go before this becomes a reality.

"This experiment shows that the science works. Before scientists can even think about scaling it up, it needs to be repeated, perfected, and the amount of energy it generates will have to be significantly boosted.

"This experiment has cost billions of dollars - fusion does not come cheap. But the promise of a source of clean energy will certainly be a big incentive for overcoming these challenges."

seems more like the other way around but yeah

Now let's see it be sustained. Which probably requires building the cooling system that would be used to make steam and generate power anyway, so potentially we might be able to jump from "hey net positive" to "we are doing this now" pretty fast?

Look, I'm a reasonably intelligent guy, but, for the life of me, I cannot seem to get ChatGPI to work for me. Every instruction I have seen is uber-confusing. Don't even say the word, "Discord" to me, as it looks like spastic teenager's idea of a Japanese video arcade - and about as visually appealing as such.

Do you know of an Idiot's Soup-to-Nuts Guide to getting ChatGPI set up for an old fogey like me who still misses hand-cranked can openers?

I've been lucky trying different phrases specifically like "Show me an example of a Wordpress Plugin that says Hello if the user is logged in or Says please login if user is logged out"

Or

"Show me a csv list of State abbreviations"

Not sure why we care about fusion when we can just keep using fission reactions and have Elon Musk launch the nuclear waste into space

Scientists are doing this and today I couldn’t find the cell phone that was in my hand

Another example of using ChatGPT:

Me: Create a 5 paragraph story about Chuck Fletcher picking his nose


ChatGPT: Once upon a time, Chuck Fletcher was sitting in his office, minding his own business. Suddenly, he felt an itch in his nose. Being the curious person that he was, Chuck decided to investigate. He reached up with his finger and began to dig around in his nose.

After a few moments, Chuck finally found what he was looking for and pulled out a large booger. He examined it for a moment before deciding that it was not something he wanted to keep. Chuck discreetly looked around his office to make sure no one was watching, and then flicked the booger into the trash can.

Feeling relieved and satisfied, Chuck leaned back in his chair and let out a contented sigh. He had successfully picked his nose without anyone noticing. Or so he thought.
Just then, the door to his office burst open and in walked his boss. Chuck's boss looked at him with disgust and asked, "What on earth are you doing, Chuck? Is that how you spend your time in this office?"

Chuck was mortified. He quickly tried to come up with an excuse, but his boss was not convinced. Chuck was promptly fired from his job as General Manager of the Minnesota Wild. And that was the end of Chuck Fletcher's career in the NHL.

Fission power is very cool and when I'm in charge we are going to have a whole lot more of it.

I always appreciate when you take time out of your day to hurt my feelings when all I do is spread love, joy, and positivity.

What, and put the torches on waivers? That doesn't fit the plan!

I think I figured it out. My issue was when I tried to log in, I would get stuck in a loop that would take me back to the sign in screen.

 

[BackToTheBrierePatch]

Sure, Jan.

What a f***ing diva

 

[Kermit the Prog]

I asked the Chat-GPT to compose the song, "Happy Birthday" if it was originally written by Hunter S. Thompson. It's absolutely superior to the original:

Another year has come and gone
And still we're getting older
Another trip around the sun
Another tale to unfold

Happy birthday, old friend
Another year to spend
Drinking, Smoking, Carrying On
In the Gonzo way

We'll raise a glass or two
To all the things we've done
The good, the bad, the ugly
We'll face it all with a smile

Happy birthday, old friend
Another year to spend
Drinking, Smoking, Carrying On
In the Gonzo way

We'll hit the road and see
What trouble we can find
In this wild and crazy world
We'll leave our mark behind

Happy birthday, old friend
Another year to spend
Drinking, Smoking, Carrying On
In the Gonzo way

I don't feel like making an account. What if you ask it to make one based on Emperor Palpatine ranting about darth vader clogging his office toilet?
