No Stupid Questions

What's the pin to bust the AI bubble?

I have set an Arr stack with qBittorrent utilizing SOCKS5 server set in another country. Am I still under surveillance if I use my local IP address to download .torrent files or use magnet links?

Just looking for direction, input, personal stories, anecdotes, links, infographics, literally anything on the topic.

Something to help one better themselves, manage their life and put some structure or control in place.

The expressions of these raccoons was satisfaction, like the realization made them happy. Had some colors added. Like those cheesy 90s memes?
If someone saw it too and knows where to find it Thanks <3

Having grown up in the northern hemisphere I have a particular mental image of Father Christmas/Santa Claus/Saint Nick/whatever. It involves a lot of clothing, topped with a lined robe. Y'know, typical cold weather gear.

In the southern hemisphere, do you get the same? If so, how come the poor guys cosplaying as him don't overheat?

This one's probably a question with no answer because the boys' club are vanishingly unlikely to cast a woman to play Bond.

There are endless discussion on the internet why pc gaming is superior than consoles and vice versa.

I don't understand that there is a necessity to prove that one is better than the. Just play your game and let other gamers enjoy their game too.

Somatic exercise is great for someone who's body has forgotten how to actually relax the muscles to remind the body how to relax but I'm wondering what the equivalent technique is for the mind to remind the mind itself not to feel a certain way?

Sorry if its oddly specific, but as someone from an East Asian family, I kinda wanna see how the parents would react, morbid curiosity.

By "East Asia", I mean the "Sinophere" and any culture with this "filial piety" or similar thing.

Feel like if it was another country they'd be sanctions or something already.

Let's say i have a reasonable hardware and want to create an n number of virtual machines inside eachother for no particular reason but to experiment, i have a few questions:

What would be the best way to approach the problem?

What are weird problems that i would encounter?

After how many levels would my computer become unusable?

Would the loss of performance from a level to another be linear or exponential?

What's the deepest level of nesting reached?

Okay so Lucifer obviously upset his sky-daddy, is demoted from being an angel permanently, is cast down to rule an entire sector of the afterlife called Hell which we come to know where all damned souls go after they die.

What is the logic of God practically awarding Lucifer an entire realm for him to rule on his own and nearly contest God's power?

That's like imprisoning someone to home confinement when they live in a mansion.

I was watching this video of a live chicken trapped on a moving truck and thought it was strange that it's not possible to say anything to them even when circumstances might warrant it. All we got is honking and waving. There could be a touchscreen interface with a map of nearby vehicles. It could be voice controllable or the passenger could do it for safety.

I remember watching a video on how Michelin Stars started out as a travel guide brochure for the best restaurants in France as a sort of advertisement for Michelin branded tyres (look at all these restaurants you could go to with Michelin tyres!).

How did the Michelin stars become so sought after by top restaurants and chefs? Was the head of the Michelin tyre company also a renowned food connoisseur or something? What about other tyre companiee, why didn't they do something similar? Are Michelin Stars still given by the tyre company, or has it been spun off into its own thing?

Sung by an American singer. I can't remember any of the actual lyrics, it was a pop song with R&B elements, the guitar instrument is this electronic sound and the guitar parts are sudden and spaced 2-3 seconds apart and only a second long. It's a very vocally intense song and the singer sounds like she's angry or shouting. Then there's this really angelic/harmonic part where she goes oooaaaaahhhaaaaaaahhh and then the guitar part like in the intro kicks in again

It's driving me nuts lol
