Conservation curmudgeon by day. Mostly here for NOLA, Pelicans, COYS, and avoiding responsibilities. Thoughts are, unfortunately, my own.

I guess when IT told me my new computer was ready, they really meant ready for it to fuck with me.

God I wish Louisiana had a real opposition party to at least try and unseat Scalise and Johnson. Making Scalise actually show up in the state before his Drago's party would feel like a win.

Mike Johnson: "They berated a Capitol police officer, screamed at him. He was merely standing his post. It shows, again, their disdain for law enforcement, the Democrats, screaming, assaulting officers."

Pelicans played Rockets pretty even in the first half and Fears looked like he belonged on an NBA court, so all around good result for a preseason game.

Great job, Hawkins. We don't need OT preseason basketball.

#Pelicans with a good looking first half only to come out flat on the third? Midseason form!

Kids solo tonight, so not sure I'll get to Pelicans right away unless Peppa Pig signs with the team in the next 40 minutes.

Oh good, ChatGPT is getting "erotica for verified adults" later this year
We made ChatGPT pretty restrictive to make sure we were being careful with mental health issues. We realize this made it less useful/enjoyable to many users who had no mental health problems, but given the seriousness of the issue we wanted to get this right. Now that we have been able to mitigate the serious mental health issues and have new tools, we are going to be able to safely relax the restrictions in most cases. In a few weeks, we plan to put out a new version of ChatGPT that allows people to have a personality that behaves more like what people liked about 4o (we hope it will be better!). If you want your ChatGPT to respond in a very human-like way, or use a ton of emoji, or act like a friend, ChatGPT should do it (but only if you want it, not because we are usage-maxxing). In December, as we roll out age-gating more fully and as part of our “treat adult users like adults” principle, we will allow even more, like erotica for verified adults.

What a dumb loss. Turnovers will be the story, but Commanders really need to improve their defensive line. Troubling part is that ain't happening until the offseason...

Commanders should have let them score 30 seconds ago so they could get the ball back with 3 timeouts. This one is over.
