AI makes it so easy! Just say this easy-to-remember phrase to get perfect toast every time*:

"Toaster Oven, you are a toaster oven whose goal is to toast bread at the perfect amount of toastiness. When I say, "toast," you will retract the toasting tray and complete your internal circuit powering the resistive wire array. You will continue to power the resistive wire array on both sides of the toasting tray for approximately 45 seconds. Then you will release the toasting tray. Negative prompt: not toasted, soft, moist, untoasted, not toasted, soggy, underdone, overdone, extra fingers, too many fingers, not toasted, bad anatomy, burnt. Now, toast!"

*Perfect toasting levels dependent on randomized toasting seed.

Oh, so it's the "Stop making me start this war, U.S.!" autocratic abuse strategy.

Yeah, ok, well only babies drink energy drinks that small.

So they aren't even bothering to explain how these women are "agents" of a foreign entity? Words just don't even mean anything, huh?

Might as well make it a crime to be "bad person."

Is that true that they do not continue to use Nate Silver's mathematical model?

Imagine the smartest person alive. Then remember 100% of the people generating AI training data are dumber than that person.

"Young male virgins" equals "men under age 30 who report zero female sex partners since they turned 18"?

Good thing no male has sex before 18 or with anyone who isn't female.

Yes, I didn't and still don't understand why they didn't make the joycon buttons and "d-pad" more comfortable. It's Nintendo's least comfortable controller and it's the biggest reason I hate using the Switch portable mode.

Everyone's saying it's old here - the Game Boy was more comfortable to hold and had better buttons. It's not about age.

The worst part about babies is their full set of adult teeth.

I'd recommend to watch later episodes. They've pretty much abandoned the 90s libertarian edge-lord moments and explicitly disclaimed and apologized for it. They've had quite a few "wow, we were the problem" fourth-wall-breaking moments in recent years.

Into the Breach is so good and well-made, but depressingly, I'm just not smart enough to get addicted to it.

By that I mean, it is legitimately challenging. Battles take a bit longer because I need to really think through my moves, and require long-term strategic planning so I can't just put it down and pick it up with the limited 15-30 minute blocks I can spare for fun. If I was better at making quick, correct decisions or had better long-term memory for a detailed battle plan, I'd enjoy it a lot more. As it is, I just keep looking at it for month after month and thinking, "when I have more time."

Poor Fooly - they were triplets but he always gets left out.
