Those who reported sleeping less than six hours a night were 27% more likely to report a recent infection, and those who reported more than nine hours sleep were 44% more likely to report one. by MistWeaver80

Better sleep on it and let us know.

Reply to comment by MopoFett in Bing's AI bot tells reporter it wants to 'be alive', 'steal nuclear codes' and create 'deadly virus' by Urgullibl
The NBC article suggests the Bing version is more confrontational than ChatGPT:
>But in some situations, (Microsoft) said, “Bing can become repetitive or be prompted/provoked to give responses that are not necessarily helpful or in line with our designed tone.” Microsoft says such responses come in “long, extended chat sessions of 15 or more questions,” though the AP found Bing responding defensively after just a handful of questions about its past mistakes.
>
>The new Bing is built atop technology from Microsoft’s startup partner OpenAI, best known for the similar ChatGPT conversational tool it released late last year. And while ChatGPT is known for sometimes generating misinformation, it is far less likely to churn out insults — usually by declining to engage or dodging more provocative questions.
>
>“Considering that OpenAI did a decent job of filtering ChatGPT’s toxic outputs, it’s utterly bizarre that Microsoft decided to remove those guardrails,” said Arvind Narayanan, a computer science professor at Princeton University.

Reply to comment by Ylsid in [WP] Everyone is born with a power, but they can be bought and sold. Being poor, you purchase only the cheapest ones, gaining you ridicule and the title "Mr. Useless". Recently, however, you realized how you can use all these "useless" powers together, and set out to make a better name for yourself. by chacham2
Wouldn't the lowest price of a stock usually just be the current price? Unless you knew how to find people willing to sell for less than they could get elsewhere.

Do we know that the original 2 died, and that exactly 0 have immigrated since then?

Reply to Ontario man who declined rental insurance 'panicked' when told he must pay $50K for stolen truck by phishieee
From the article: "As it turned out, Coish only had liability coverage, not collision and comprehensive, so he wasn’t covered for theft and was told he must pay Enterprise Holdings $49,832 for the stolen truck."
Well, yeah, don't use liability insurance on an expensive vehicle. He'd be in the same trouble if he'd caused an accident that totalled his rental.
Honestly, I wouldn't mind rental companies requiring proof of full coverage or forcing their own insurance, but that's just me. It shouldn't be a law or anything.
