He blew up innocent people with bombs and drones. He tortured people. I'd say he was indeed terrible.

Don't get me wrong: he was one of the better presidents that we've had, but that bar is embarrasingly low.

I don't know nearly enough history to be an expert on this subject, but I've heard that one of the causes of the Enlightenment was because peasants and poors were able to afford to spend time learning and creating, rather than substinance-farming.

I've heard of the Brain Health Registry: https://my.brainhealthregistry.org/

But I have no idea how well it works

I've been using the 'Silence' app, which lets only known-callers ring your phone. The rest get sent straight to voicemail

I'm not who you replied to but..... I've run a bunch of models through https://github.com/Mozilla-Ocho/llamafile and https://ollama.com/. I'm lucky enough to have a decent video-card (24GB), but if you are willing to be a bit more paitient, or run a lower model, you'll probably be able to get it going.

I grew up in California and had the opposite experience. I had friends who grew up speaking Mexican-Spanish at home, and would take the Spanish classes to get an easy A.

The teachers never understood what the Mexican-Spanish students were saying, and kept telling the native speakers that they were doing it wrong.

Honestly, I just block the people who keep repeating that kinds of BS. They aren't worth my mental energy.

Does that mean I miss out on a bunch of discussions on .world? yes, but not wasting my mental energy on bad-faith arguments is worth it.
