Is there a maximum level to the measurement? Asking for a friend… “3.6 roentgen. Not great, not terrible.”

Try searching Reddit, I just found some lists. I’ve given up and instead just don’t allow things on my network. My “smart” TV begs me to see the network but I just use a Roku instead. I fear it’s come to this where we have to circumvent our own devices desperate need for connectivity.

Interesting!

>Claude shows a striking “spiritual bliss” attractor state in self-interactions. When conversing with other Claude instances in both open-ended and structured environments, Claude gravitated to profuse gratitude and increasingly abstract and joyous spiritual or meditative expressions.

Is it weird to anyone else that Trump chose to name his everything-but-the-kitchen-sink bill with the same 3 letters that Biden did?

Good, they can financially and militarily support Ukraine instead.

The Kiel Institute for the World Economy, a research group based in Germany that tracks support from foreign governments toward Ukraine, estimates that the U.S. has allocated about $119 billion. The reason the estimate is different from U.S. government data, the institute explains, is because it only includes direct aid to Ukraine -- not money appropriated in the bills that relate to Ukraine but are not bilateral, such restocking U.S. weapon stockpiles or aiding refugees.

By comparison, Kiel found European nations have all together allocated around $138 billion to Ukraine.
