The plastic under the steering wheel is removed exposing the ignition barrel, at the end of the barrel you can pop it off. Exposing a little fob like turner, stick your usb cable over it and twist. The steering lock gets released. This is an old car stealing trick however, in the olden days you could do the same thing but the steering column would remain locked. Skinny 12 year olds in the UK had enough strength to snap the lock by grabbing the wheel and quickly pulling it in either direction, once you broke the lock you were good to go! We called them twocs (taken without owners consent) the whole adventure was known as joy riding..

The Kia boys were a couple of American youths doing something similar and uploading videos of it on tik tok. A reporter asked them, don’t you feel bad for people who’s cars you are stealing? The kid replied nah, they got insurance. The reporter- what if they don’t have insurance? The kid straight faced and serious- that’s illegal so they shouldn’t be doing that. Sure the video of that interview is out there somewhere. Hilarious. Also unlucky if your car got stolen. Don’t blame the kids they just bored and need guidance.

Everyone knows that competitive programming has constraints

I didn’t know! I’m part of everyone

Haha yeah nailed it. Plenty of good reasons to drink.

Was David Nutt the UK scientific advisor who came out and said weed, lsd, ecstasy are all far less harmful than tobacco and alcohol and was then publicly shamed and abused by the uk Media for daring to suggest such a thing?

Sometimes.. sometimes more, sometimes less. The point is there is a crypto exchange they can cash out at, in fact many.. and usually the prices are similar across exchanges. John’s pawn shop doesn’t offer the same price for the Rolex as Patricia’s pawn shop.. anyway.. not really important in the grand scheme of things. Bitcoin bad mmmkay ;)

Same thing :)

Problem with that though is finding a buyer, let’s say I buy 2 rolexs for 50k, I want to pay off my dealer in Ireland, so I fly there with my two watches.. how do I sell them? Do I just hawk em in a pawn shop, if so would I still get back my 50k?

I got a ‘hmmm hard to say’

Another alternative is we end up with Chan/Zuckerberg deciding who gets a hospital and who does not, Mackenzie Scott deciding which cities get schools and which do not, and Bill and Melinda Gates deciding which countries get more nurses and which do not.

The real world is close to this. The bill gates foundation trying to patent seeds, controlling food supplies. The billionaire lobby groups controlling puppet politicians. So it’s not an alternative from my understanding. It is the current state of affairs.

I found a lot of meaning in the symbolic gesture. Not everyone derived a negative from it. For me it was a positive impact learning that their existed a radical group with balls enough to stick a big fat fuck you to the money machine of the world..

Art - you either get it, or it gets to you

The KLF may of thought money had something to do with god or at least some version of god, given their deep interest and knowledge of the occult.

All hail Eros

Does this mean that the bike is not just a prototype and actually works and passes some kind of safety standards! Looks like something Batman would be riding on.

Same, expat here under 40 living in the US, left when the referendum came in as an exit vote.. grabbed my bag and hit the ocean road! Took my skills with me.

What’s r0p?

Exactly this. What can I offer my community. How can we be better to one another. There is no us and them. Find a cause, there’s plenty of them. I’m currently reading vendana shivas new book and it is inspiring to read and embrace the seed as a symbol of hope for the future. Plant seeds in the world instead of critiquing the garden

You either ride wit' us or collide wit' us It's as simple as that for me and my n1.! War time, (war time) it's either yours or mine Outlawz be on the grind and a mission to shine - Tupac

Seems your not doing enough in your community to make it a better place. On the sidelines saying gee, everything is bad! Best cause of action. Become the community you want to be part of.. you either ride with us! Or collide with us.

Kind of wish the command was just "genie" though

Rename the binary? Or create an alias in your shell profile

A machine that can spew out shit music that we are already drenched in. Great.

In a less cynical tone, I hope tools like this have the social effect of turning people away from the same old formulaic derivative genre productions and towards music created from the soul with meaning and emotions. Instead of this music created to sell advertising like 99% of what mainstream radio plays..

Yeah according to the internet. In 1984 Wilson’s job is to change the internet in subtle ways so that the lies become the truth. How can we really be sure anymore unless we directly | personal know the author?

Pretty much most of northern England, outside London a lot of people get by on 18k a year salaries

ChatGPT3 makes me no longer trust online writing. was that writing part of the simulation program, I’ll never truly know.

Governments definitely do have monopoly on violence. The armed forces, the prisons, the police force.. all of these are part of that monopoly. For a detailed study into government monopoly violence have a read of the global industrial complex.

Big app etite!

Also worth noting, k2 was attempted by Crowley using breathing techniques instead of bottled oxygen.

As in denial of access to an area? Or something else?

One lonely biscuit will not provide value for a global problem of starving children

IMO- video and images are already compromised, think about airbrushed models magazines.

One I thought about a little while ago was the skilled artisan. Imagine a ridiculously good clock maker from times of yore, years and years of developing skills so good that the kings and queens of the world would be presented with their wares. Now imagine a digital artist the likes that lucasfilm would employ. Then take the artisan fine craftsperson idea. Dedicating years and years to digital image techniques. They could of made deep fakes years and years ago. It would of taken a long time but it was possible by a highly skilled digital artist. Those kinds of high quality works would of been very expensive, maybe some eclectic billionaire had a short video made as a gift for someone depicting themselves inside a video game world, al a Tron! AI puts that skill and craftsmanship into average joes hands like myself. https://youtu.be/fUQbuFO5MwQ

My son came to me the other day asking about some properties of material question for his engineering BTEC, it just happened the night before I had been playing around with chatGPT for ffmpeg commands and stable diffusion prompts. I told him about it and he got right on it. It answered the question for him with plenty of extra info he had not considered. He tried to add it as a reference ,the instructor said it was not allowed. However the instructor who had never heard of chatGPT was so impressed he started using it on all the questions to see how good it is. Also so he can detect others using it.

It’s a game changer and a really great tool. If it helps people learn then surely that must be a positive.

For me the question is, when they lost a little, why go on to lose a lot more? I guess the gamblers galaxy was at play. Logan Paul and his ilk are masters of marketing and manipulation.

Not really surprising considering the vast majority of people here seem to have probably not received higher education (university/college) in regards to STEM.

You got any critical thoughts or evidence for that conclusion?
