Officials assert that the AI tools will only be used to judge claims for about a dozen different types of procedures it deems to be wasteful and providing little benefit, including steroid shots to relieve pain, per the NYT.

Yeah cause people on medicare aren't likely to need steroid shots for things like joint pain or anything. Anyone 65 and older should start saving their money now to pay for their steroid shots that are going to start costing them a couple hundred bucks a pop.

So because one country isn't using machines to farm their soybeans and uses animals instead we should ignore the fact that an entire industry commits horrifying abuse across the board?

Because literally everywhere else soybean farming has been mechanized.

Who think that these methods and policies will never be targeted at them because they are white and so were their grandparents.

google is forcing Gemini into everything and you can’t turn it off,

You can still shut off Gemini as of right now. I don't know what it'll be like in the future though.

This comment should be stickied cause its very relevant to the post.

Fun fact, you cannot commit animal abuse on a soybean, coconut, rice, wheat, or oat grains.

Fuck dairy

Meanwhile blood pressure: screaming intensifies

Now begins the process whereby some low level in the White House will be tasked with watching her every move and combing through her entire life and history to find a cause to fire her.

Doctors are not required to report cases, so the known numbers are the tip of the iceberg.

At this point I don't know if it would even matter if they did report cases since Trump, in his infinite wisdom, just wiped out the CDC.

I'm happy this works for you but it would fuck my brain up royally. When the alarm goes off my brain tries to wake up and after a bit I will go back to sleep. A second alarm 10 minutes later will then fully wake me up but i have 3 back ups with completely different ring tones so my brain doesn't get used to them and just block them out. I also choose pleasant yet attention grabbing tunes to avoid the blocking out problem. You'd be surprised at how effectively your brain can block a sound it doesn't like. It's why I've long avoided getting the alarms with the typical alarm sound.

They voted for him as a kind of "fuck you" to the system that's been fucking them over for so long.

The irony in this is that all the social policies that democrats voted into law to help these people were sabotaged by the republicans they voted for. Both in the federal government and their state government. And yet they still vote for those same republicans every time. Part of that, I suspect, is due to the pulpit politics of their church leaders keeping them in line for the GOP by hammering those bullshit "woke is evil and they're coming for your children" talking points every sunday morning.

Just to add to the pile of, "I think I might have ADHD cause this is what it do".

FML 😑

Let's see, immigration enforcement has scared away a huge number of foreign people from visiting and inflation is not only getting worse but if Agent Orange has his way with the Fed its going to spiral out of control so bad the dollar might not even be worth the paper its printed on so people are hoarding their pennies like there's no tomorrow.

I wonder why the capital of disposable income is doing so poorly? 🤔

I don't even need to watch this to know exactly what this is. Motherfucker gave the best advice in the universe 30 years ago and it has improved my technique 1,000%.

Small price to pay. The real downside if such a thing exists is someone with worse intentions could use it.

It's not Ken anything. It's some British guy named Jack Frimston.

I think it's up to you to decide whether or not this is supposed to be satirical. I'm on the side of thinking it's not.

Yeah, this really seems like it's satire. If someone hadn't blurred out the name, we would... Hold on.

A quick Google search yielded results.

A new vice president has to be confirmed by the Senate. That takes time.

Every day I pray for a certain notebook to land in the grass in front of me.
