It's Saturday, what have you watched this week?
Omega Syndrome (1986)
Taken before Taken. 80s tough guy takes out Nazi gang to get his daughter back.
Preposterously thin plot, but also, suck it Nazis.

[please post photo(s)] What haircut/style would you have if you could have **ANY** hair, hair type, and hairstyle?
Super-glue mohawk.
It's a one time style for that hair, and would be a bitch to sleep with, but I would enjoy the shit out of it.

Well it has been over 40yrs, but I was going for some kind of spoiler quality to my comment. XD
Still worth a watch, for the familial power-dynamic reversal, and the frozen terror and word-selection, akin to tiptoeing around an abusive/alcoholic parent.

I've seen the Public Domain, Ustinov version - The Curious Adventures of Mr. Wonderbird.
And yes, that king is cold.

My GF uses AI
Below is one of the best sourced comments that I've seen about listing the negative aspects of LLMs/AI.
One of my main ones is, thinking about spinning up a jet engine, next to someone's backyard, each time a LLM is used for a web search.
Stick to the facts when you explain your views, explore ways to run local models for her if you can stretch that far.
Reasons not to use AI-LLM artificial intelligence. (There is probably a bunch more in the 7 months since this list was written.)

Have you ever experienced this before?
If the words on the batteries read the same way, it will cause acidic fuzz like this.
* They may have been correctly inserted, and then left a long time, which can also cause fuzz.
