These shitheads are going to steal my tools and gear. I can feel it. There's things in that suitcase that are just far too tempting. And the amount of back and forth paperwork is far outside the norm even for 'this place bureaucracy'.
A similar package left a day later and got here no issues.

Looking for a photo and found this goofy thing I made a lifetime ago because I own tools and nobody kicks down my door and makes me stop when I have dumb ideas.

On the drive back to the farm last night A brought up a very good point, "Why isn't 'Born in East LA' on repeat on every broadcast channel back home right now?"
A 39 year old comedy is now a modern Black Mirror episode.
Get it on loop. Can't stop the signal.

Dude... My Blue Collar Dad taught me that you have to be smarter than the tool you're holding in your hand or you're going to have a very bad day.
Test and Diff. Test and Diff. I do it constantly while developing on the CompBetty engines.
If you just eat what these things spit out, that's on you.

How many times, in how many contexts, in how many ways am I going to have to say that this is what "AI" does— what it fundamentally *is*— before it sinks in? That all Bullshit engines do is statistically correlate training data & inputs via their weights to produce outputs you are likely to accept…

Update on Fattoria del la Drift... The fields will be prepped soon. We will sew wheat in March. The Olive trees will be pruned around the same time.
The Beats you ask? The Beat crop is bumper this year.

"You live in rural Eastern Italy now Mike, aren't you worried you'll burn out on the lack of food diversity?"
There's a Chinese grocery store in Pescara, they even carry our brand of Gyoza. Wonton wrappers to boot.
Buon pranzo...

I am a niche-within-a-niche-within-a-niche here. I do have to admit, as a white male in his 50's I do feel quite out of place at times. That's just how time and entropy works.
I do know there is an element here that would blink me out of existence if they could, and I am at peace with that.

I've always held my writing utensil in my right hand like a left handed person.
Hooked around over the top pointed back toward myself so I had no visual occlusion of the tip. Several of my teachers were incredibly cruel about it to the point of physical and psychological abuse.

This is literally the 'big town' with the box stores 'down the road' (45 minutes) we drive to from Fattoria del la Drift to get what we need.
Apparently there's even a monument we have to go check out.
