I often look moist after I use a moisturizer.


>smash with something better

Not a fan of the aggressive rhetoric here...


I too felt threatened


Yeah, and it's not "better", but actually less general, relying on optimization/GD, unlike OP.


Violent disagreement is violence.


Because people are willing to pay that amount


After following the work of Zeke Faux I would not touch Tether with a 10 foot pole.


Likewise. It's fine for transient balances but I wouldn't hold anything in USDT for longer than a few minutes. If I was going to pick one thing that would be the next major scandal, Tether would be it.


>What many people don't know: The current boom in "Generative AI" using artificial neural networks has its roots in the early nineties at the Technical University of Munich, especially the "G" and the "P" and the "T" in "ChatGPT." At that time, we published "Artificial Curiosity" through what's now called "Generative Adversarial Networks" (1990, now widely used),

What kinda system is it currently?


As of 2024, a representative strong-executive democracy with a large authoritarian leaning and an unhealthy obsession with oligarch-worship.

In 2028, who knows. The current president told his supporters that in four years, they won't need to vote anymore, whatever the fuck that is supposed to mean.


A Democratic Republic


Not since a year or two after Citizens United.

Also, in case you didn't notice, the world's richest man just about bought the presidential election by spending over a quarter billion dollars.

Please do some research.

Yes, there are lots of degenerate gamblers, grifters, and scammers in the crypto scene, but any new platform that's in any way related to finance will attract that scum.

If you spend a little while attempting to understand Bitcoin's reason for existence, it may start to make some sense.

Medium doesn't have the best user experience but their SEO is fantastic (the last time I knew)


Seems like you need prescription-spiders.


I don't remember that quote at all, who said it in the book?


Leto is talking to Paul, and he is talking about either a region or a chemical process that is important for the production of film stock. then he sardonically says something like, (paraphrasing):

"Film stock is very important. we have the finest propaganda offices. The people must learn how well I govern them. How would they know if we didn't tell them?"

he means it sarcastically, but propaganda is important to keep useful people on the planet and to win the general populace over. Leto knows he's backed into a corner on Arrakis and he's focusing on what he can.

I also could only find the part i posted originally online, its not one of the more frequent quotes from the book.
