Reply to comment by adeadfreelancer in Could CHAT GPT be built into NPCs in video games? Imagine no more dialogue choices & just speaking to NPCs. by Platybear_OG
I dunno it is pretty good at role play. I asked it whether I should side with the empire pretending it was paarthurnax and it replied with this:
***I believe that the decision to side with the empire or not is ultimately up to you, as a mortal being with free will. However, I can offer my thoughts and insights on the matter.
As a dragon who has lived for thousands of years, I have seen the rise and fall of empires and civilizations countless times. The empire in Skyrim is no different - it is an imperfect institution, flawed by its own ambitions and the actions of its leaders.
That being said, there are certainly advantages to siding with the empire. They represent stability and order in a tumultuous time, and their laws and regulations can bring a measure of peace to the region. Additionally, they are not as ruthless and oppressive as some other forces in the world of Skyrim.
However, it is also important to consider the drawbacks of aligning oneself with the empire. They have a long history of imperialism and expansionism, and their actions have often caused harm and suffering to the peoples they conquer. Furthermore, their policies and laws can be stifling and restrictive, and may not always align with the values of individual freedom and autonomy.
In the end, the decision to side with the empire or not is a complex and nuanced one, and depends on your own personal beliefs and priorities. I urge you to weigh the pros and cons carefully, and make the choice that aligns with your own values and convictions***
Didn't really read quite in his voice, but it isn't like asking Alexa that's for sure.

Shocking! r/badcopnodonut
The US seems to have one of the worse police forces and while they complain there never seems to be an incentive to fix it.

There are more than 700,000 hairdressers in the United States, more than 90% of whom are estimated to be women. by MistWeaver80
"with less chemicals" is not a meaningful statement.

Reply to comment by QuestionableAI in Study reveals women who experience domestic abuse are three times more likely to contract HIV infection. by MistWeaver80
Seems a reasonable explanation. There may also be other factors such as a partner harbouring resentment if they think they contracted HIV from them.

So I buy 10 sets of shit coins, wait a year, then sell all regardless of price? This is what is being simulated here.

Your graph doesn't go to zero for the humidity ratio. Presumably because the energy required becomes infinite. Does it blow up as the log of this ratio or the inverse?

A bit of chlorine would be useful, as would sodium and other metals, but realistically we'd want orders of magnitude more hydrogen if we were going to use it to replace fossil fuels.

They didn't mention the electrolysis efficiency though.

Cows tend to be more spread out than waste disposal units or oilfields.
Cows and Rice paddies are big emitters because we have so many of them.

Turkmenistan and Iran are the only places that are mentioned besides the US (Carlsbad, New Mexico). The Turkmenistan site emits far more than the other two.
