Why do you think all these old rich/powerful people become rapists and child molesters?

I sort of resent this idea that everyone edges towards being a pedo when they become rich/powerful enough. I think it's the other way around, that only extreme sociopaths are capable of becoming this rich/powerful and you have to be some kind of sociopath to be a pedo.

I think it depends on how you engage with it. I work with some younger people who are active AI users, and they call chatgpt "he" or "she" and prompt it like a conversation with a person. Their responses are a lot more conversational vs mine which are more direct.

Steel and aluminum remain at 50%, and the EU has to invest in the US and buy military equipment from them. Sounds like a terrible deal and I hope we (Canada) don't make a similar one.

Despite the obvious hypocrisy with Taiwan and Hong Kong, he does benefit from supporting Ukraine since it ensures further destabilization of Russia.

good app interface

Maybe it's because I don't use any other Apple products, but I struggle with its interface

Because ultra processed foods don't fill us up but taste incredibly good. Technically the problem is overeating, but it's a lot easier to overeat ultra processed foods.
