  • Yeah but when it’s a total crapshoot as to whether or not its summary is accurate, you can’t trust it. I adblocked those summaries cause they’re useless.

    At least some of the competing AIs show their work. Perplexity cites its sources, and even ChatGPT recently added that ability as well. I won’t use an LLM unless it does, cause you can easily check the sources it used and see if the slop it spit out has even a grain of truth to it. With Gemini, there’s no easy way to verify anything it said beyond just doing the googling yourself, and that defeats the point.


  • Gemini once told me to “please wait” while it did “further research”. I responded with, “that’s not how this works; you don’t follow up like that unless I give you another prompt first”, and it was basically like, “you’re right but just give me a minute bro”. 🤦

    Out of all the LLMs I’ve tried, Gemini has got to be the most broken. And sadly that’s the one LLM that your average person is exposed the most to, because it’s in nearly every Google search.






  • Yeah sorry can’t relate lol. Throttle response is good, not as good as my old Genesis Coupe BK1 3.8, but honestly my only complaint is that it could use an extra 20 whp because I have the DE engine. But on the bright side, there’s a lot of headroom for power unlike the HR, so you can mod it, and even turbo it without having to build up the engine. There are lighter flywheels available, but that also introduces chatter so I’m happy with OEM.

    With the top up, rear quarter panel visibility is limited, yes, but I drive with the top down 95% of the time so it’s a non-issue for me.

    No oil cooling issues because again I have the DE engine. It does burn oil like every 350Z/G35, but not enough to need topping up between changes, thankfully.

    The main reason why I chose the 350Z over the 370Z (other than price) is for the old school steering with a power steering pump that barely feels like it’s there. I heard the 370Z’s steering wheel is light and floaty like modern cars; my 350Z’s steering is very communicative, and as such it’s easy to know exactly what the tires are doing.

    My second (and only real) complaint is with the interior. It is so cheap and plasticity, and scuffs incredibly easy. The 370’s interior is a considerable upgrade. I miss having push-to-start as well.






  • Yeah sometimes I think that might be the case too.

    I guess some people are just so carefree that they don’t even pay attention to their speedometer. They just scurry down the road at whatever speed feels right in their heart, only slowing down if another car gets in their way, so carefree that the concept of keeping a safe following distance doesn’t even cross their minds.

    You’re probably right—they’re not raging—they’re just blissfully unaware of how bad their driving is.


  • This wouldn’t have happened if the dumbasses at the hospital in Bangkok would have actually done their jobs, and had a doctor check for vital signs before merely taking the guy for his word, and just going with the assumption that she was dead before rejecting her.

    Secondly, nobody at the hospital found it even slightly odd that a dude just rolls in with a body and says, “she’s dead. Cremation, plz”? Instead they respond with, “produce a death certificate or fuck off”. What the actual fuck is going on over there in Thailand, that basic due diligence doesn’t even cross their minds? I would have been asking, “isn’t that your job, assholes?”

    Oh come on, we all know that it’s an unwritten rule that you either drive exactly at the speed limit, or up to 9 MPH over, because no cop will pull you over unless you’re egregiously speeding (because literally everybody speeds).

    Don’t be a fool who follows the law to the letter, rather than interpreting the intention of the law as you should, and also how judges and lawyers are trained. That’s why we have judges and lawyers to begin with, because there is no one singular right way to interpret the law.

    Don’t know where you live, but in my state there is a law that states that you must go with the flow of traffic, regardless of the speed limit. Driving slower than the flow of traffic not only causes traffic jams, but also increases the chances of either getting into—or causing an accident. Your stubbornness causes more issues than it fixes.

    I would if I was even more petty than I already am—but I drive a sports car—so my goto technique is to drop a gear and disappear; show them how a real asshole drives. 😜

    (But seriously, why not just go around me? Are they allergic to changing lanes? Buy blind spot mirrors and set them correctly if fear is the issue. They’re ~$3 at Wally World.)
