You heard the cookie.

If I try to play bullet, I could probably find out for you.

It could be a bit of both, but in general I recognized after a certain point that the only one affected by my stress level is me, not the thing in the news. I’d also credit having a career where you have to get really good at controlling what you let affect you.

Yeah, I still think the criticisms of Bush were valid, but I’m so much more cool-headed as a person now that the difference in my response feels incongruent. Political news doesn’t take an emotional toll on me like it used to, even though I objectively disagree with modern politicians more.

Seriously. I was at the right age to be much more politically intense back then and absolutely despised Bush.

Now, I almost feel bad about it after witnessing the last 20 years of politics.

It was for brevity and clarity. People are very familiar with hearing “OCD” used casually, but “NPD” would have sounded too specific and clinical compared to “narcissistic” as a character trait.

The joke is leaning more on the OCD/narcissistic characteristics of Patrick Bateman than the murdery part. Like, having a ridiculously tedious self-care routine due to vanity (or self-consciousness, take your pick).

But oh boy! the day they appear!

I will have forgotten the move order.

I need you to do the subtitles when I watch British shows.

Play the bread crumbs gambit. Works every time.

I’m a big fan! My favorite song of yours is Sweating Magazines.

A few weeks ago, Gemini got confused when it tried to go first as black multiple times, so that’s the most immediate one I can remember. Last week, chatGPT offered to set up chess puzzles for me, but it made mistakes 3 out of 3 times.

Maybe I’ll try again. Is there a certain one you’ve seen good performance out of?

I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s literally zero. I’ve tried with a few LLMs, and they’re all very confident that they know how to play chess, but they just start hallucinating illegal moves immediately.

Have you tried vacillating between comfortable indifference and acute outrage on an hour-by-hour basis?

Sorry, since you hadn’t personally signed off on my many other posts in this community, I figured the approval process had broken down.

(Yes, I’m aware this offensive to people with nut allergies. I just don’t care.)

You monster.

I usually picture Britta from community whenever I read comments like that.

Damn you, FIDE.

People like you are why we have good things.
