    It is quite obvious that you are posting this from some other group than sci.physics.relativity. Because when we turn our pages in the nearest
    book of Newtonian physics [1] -- please forgive me, I don't have one
    handy -- to practical applications of /gravity/, we see that the planet
    helps with both bowel movements and childbirth. The latter of course
    only if you're a woman, pregnant, and in labor [3].

    Of course, western style toilets [4] do not make it easy to apply the practicality of a graviton [5] to bowel movements, so it's best to stand
    on the toilet seat, and then squat down in order to align the last end
    of the rectal intestine perfectly perpendicular to the horizon, and let
    the nearest graviton pull it down at its leisure rather than have to
    strain [6] to get rid of some extraneous fecal matter.

    People who have never had pleasurable bowel movements of course don't
    know this trick, and will in error and confusion not understand the mind
    of /the creator/ of humanity. Simply because the are using western loos
    wrong. Please don't be that guy, and apply wisdom and experience to the
    simple things in life, rather than post something utterly inane and id-
    iotic on Usenet like a character from Black Adder [7].

    Now, wugi can simply direct us to the nearest chapter in his or her You-
    Tube station, where he or she explains the best way to have a bowel
    movement like the character in Black Adder he or she is.

    I mean, it /has/ to be funny, because nobody is intentionally that
    stupid, right?


    Best wishes, and happy reruns of Black Adder!


    [1] An Englishman isn't a real [2] patriot unless he has a copy of New-
    tonian physics on his bookshelf.

    [2] For some value of real. Perhaps /real/ value'd variable in Fortran
    77?

    [3] And hopefully not in a labor camp, but possibly a labor union;
    though I don't recommend communism for obvious reasons.

    [4] But not toiletry. We are posting in alt.usage.english, of course.

    [5] The members of sci.physics.relativity will have to comment on which graviton, and whether that spelling is considered scientifically
    correct. My copy of a speling [sic] chequer [sic] does not have that
    word in its vocabulary.

    [6] But not a viral strain. Not even on social media.

    [7] People of rec.arts.tv will have to have something to imitate. Isn't rec.arts.tv about creating new shows for television? So I presume all
    posters of rec.arts.tv not only have their own YouTube station, but make
    better jokes than the ones we enjoy in Black Adder!

    It's hard to tell, because at present we are faced with a combination of
    the two. There is an urgent need to equip AIs with something equivalent
    to the first two laws of robotics, but people who want to put in
    safeguards are being blocked by an incredibly stupid US president.


    Hmm, for once I find myself in agreement with the Drumph.

    To be clear, he is not blocking safeguards. He is saying slowing done AI >development is not a good idea. He is correct in saying that, because if
    the competition (China, Russia) does not conform to those guidelines,
    they will end up with far more potent and aggressive AIs than those of
    OpenAI and Anthropic.

    You are right. I have read Gibson's 'Neuromancer' too, and both readings (Gibson, Stephenson) were more than 40 years ago. Some cross-wire there.

    I look forward to that. The fact that Neuromancer was written in 1984 -

    You don't know how to do something the A.I. cannot? I mean, it's not
    hard to find the gaps in its knowledege. My go-to problem is /trans-
    actional file system/.

    Ask the A.I. to make one for you. You'll quickly find the gaps, and
    will have to teach it the details. Which is a waste of time, because
    it forgets everything as soon as its window of context is too large.


    Best wishes, and happy doing something the A.I. cannot!

    I don't know what is a "transactional file system"..

    but I know of things Ai cannot do because it simply has not learned it
    yet, that's
    where you come in and 'train it' yourself.

    First collect links either from the internet or your own documents, and
    Upload it to Ai.

    It will read it all, and tell Ai ...

    but I know of things Ai cannot do because it simply has not learned it
    yet, that's

    Seems you claim you're an NTFS "expert" and didn't know about this?


    https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/fileio/about-transactional-ntfs

    Note, I don't really count NFTS as a /transactional file system/, be-
    cause Microsoft has deprecated this and might remove it without further
    notice.

    Now, do something similar for Linux, Unix of your choice. Why not Open-
    ZFS because that's also available for Windows?

    https://github.com/openzfsonwindows/openzfs/releases

    I don't care if you use Linux, FreeBSD, NetBSD, or Illumos, but please
    make this happen. The L.L.Ms. need to know how to do this, right?

    So you implement a file system where you can atomically modify two or
    more files, with the proviso that all writes happen at the "same time"
    or none at all. Here, "same time" means as visible from another pro-
    cess reading the file.

    All writes should succeed, or none. So you can't just modify one file,
    commit that, and then modify the next. The first file's modification
    have to roll back if the second file's write()s fail for any reason.

    Such as a broken hard disk, assuming the file systems spans more than
    one volume.


    Are you up to this task? How can you let an A.I. do this for you?

    I'm far away from your gutters. So you'd have to buy the remote

    At that point, it's probably cheaper to hire a human locally.

    Why don't you clean your gutters yourself?? You don't know how? Ask Ai, she'll tell you how.


    With the money you save you can use it to buy a ton of Fentanyl!

    Didn't Jack Reacher get into trouble over some fentanyl adventure or
    other in one of his books? I admit ignorance, because I never watched
    his movies, nor finished the T.V. show.

    I'm sure the A.I. can tell you exactly which book, but then you have to
    read it yourself if you want to have a manly male hero solve some crime
    or other, and enjoy the story. A /summary/ is not the story, and you
    won't enjoy it if you don't read it yourself. Which the A.I. cannot do
    for you [1].

    Of course, if you only care about consuming the fentanyl yourself, then
    you probably haven't seen any of the Jack Reacher movies, nor the T.V.
    show, nor read any of his books. And what does that make you, who claim
    to be /super intelligent/?


    [1] I'm not counting text-to-speech here as an application of A.I. since
    you can just use C.M.U. Flite,

    http://cmuflite.org/

    and please don't mind the lack of S.S.L., locally and don't need to pay

    I hope the downloads still work, I didn't check.

    President Donald Trump signed an executive order on September 29, 2026, officially renaming "Artificial Intelligence" (AI) to

    "Super Intelligence" (SI) across all U.S. federal executive branch
    agencies.

    I never claimed to be super intelligent...

    I have (SI) "Super Intelligence" (SI)


    everybody else has Ai


    and I never read a Fiction book in my life!

    as a kid
    i would go to
    the library
    to read books.
    I would follow
    the
    Dewey Decimal System
    it had there.

    So, I would look at all
    the books between
    001-999.

    There was a section
    in the back that had no
    Dewey Decimal System.
    It was called the Fiction section.
    It had no Dewey Decimal System
    numbers.
    It had no facts in it, or an Index,
    or anything resembling the
    Dewey Decimal System.

    Lot's of made up stuff.

    So, I didn't bother to
    this day with those
    type of books.

    That is where it belongs, in the back.

    I rather be a six year old
    learning how to dissemble a machine gun.



    i never understood why others read fiction books.

    maybe girls read it..

    and promises to be worse than ever before.

    At least weather patterns leak only slowly across the equator. Canada

    change. The main risk to us comes from El Ni¤o and data centres.

    No, Trump, the festering idiot, didn't coin "superintelligence", where
    there's basically a book called "Superintelligence" with the likes of
    George Anas about "ethics of superintelligence" which I'm quite sure
    he never read.

    Trump, that criminal, the other day said that anybody who didn't change
    their vocabulary was, in all upper-case, "THE ENEMY". Bad idea.

    Terrorists, then traitors, then truants: looking more like train-wreck.

    But also, you get no respect from me for pretending to know everything

    What a dull life. No wonder you appear to be hooked on fentanyl.


    Well, best wishes getting rid of your A.I. and fentanyl addiction, I

    strange...it appears to me to be a unmoderated newsgroup.

    Do you have one of those unauthorized moderatos here????

    FUCK HIM!!!! Tell him I said "Go fuck your mother!"

    You know, I think I might have to take over this

    IT'S MINE!

    I OWN IT!!

    If you post to: ,alt.usage.english,

    it's only because I ALLOW IT!

    From now on, everybody in ,alt.usage.english, is going to have to learn
    how to speak English!

    I will be checking everybodys speling...so watch out!

    30's, dropping to the low 20's
    tonight, but I'm predicting that
    all that moisture coming up from
    the Gulf is going to miss us and
    dump some locally heavy snow,
    possibly blizzard conditions with
    travel advisories in the
    Harrisburg area and maybe as far

    It has been claimed that data centres already do far more damage to
    the environment than cow farts.

    This reminds me of when our son was a student at the University of
    Alabama. We went up there on Parent's Day, when the father was there
    of one of my son's fraternity brothers. The son was a graduate
    student in one of the sciences. He was involved in a study of methane-from-cows.

    When he told his father (A "good ole boy" from Southern Alabama) about
    his work, the father exploded "Goddammit, Son! I'm going into debt to
    keep you in college and you're out there collecting cow farts? We got
    cows at home, and you can hold a cup to their ass for free!".



    'Why buy the cow when you can get the ass for free'????

    dats not da vey i heard it...


    wat kind of cows you people got up there??
