Can't sing, can't dance, can handle a sword a little.
Bought a pair of trashed Vivobarefoot Ra shoes off eBay for £20, spent a half hour bringing them back to life and am very pleased with the result.
At some point I’ll get around to getting them resoled, but for now they are good to wear.

AI models may be developing their own ‘survival drive’, researchers say

The US military is now, officially, a rampaging mob not a professional fighting force.
I wonder if the corollary to this doctrine of ‘untied hands’ and no ‘stupid’ rules of engagement is that all Americans, everywhere, are now legitimate targets for the enemy?

Hegseth: "We unleash overwhelming and punishing violence on the enemy. We also don't fight with stupid rules of engagement. We untie the hands of our warfighters to intimidate, demoralize, hunt, and kill the enemies of our country. No more politically correct and overbearing rules of engagement."
