A recent example which I had a lot of fun ridiculing was when the Bogan said that there are many 7-Eleven&#x2019;s, some are big, some are small. It&#x2019;s the bland equivocating that usually gives AI so called help away.  No sentient being thinks that that that is how people talk,but a robot does; it&#x2019;s just pure laziness to put your story into AI and have it rewritten.   Autism funneled through AI is a drab morass that we see the obtuse results of  every day here.  I also left open the possibility that this person is just a dullard who could barely fog a mirror and actually communicates like this.  In which case, his odds with the waitress are even lower than the consensus here says they are.  So I am rooting for him and that he&#x2019;s just lazy.  And since someone here was asking for French toast recommendations in CM, I recommend the butter is better deli. Probably the best I&#x2019;ve had in Thailand.  The great Larry David-like owner passed away a couple weeks ago, so if you knew him, take a moment to give thanks and praise.</description><pubDate>Thu, 04 Jun 2026 13:40:29 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Spencer Pratt For Mayor of LA.</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1394142-spencer-pratt-for-mayor-of-la/?do=findComment&comment=20537267]]></link><description>The primary is over, and it's between Pratt and Bass.

Marxists, communists and socialists were among the first groups the Nazis imprisoned, persecuted and killed after taking power.   Second, most historians do not classify Nazism as a left-wing movement. The fact that the Nazi Party included the word "Socialist" in its name does not make it socialist in the Marxist sense, any more than North Korea is democratic because it calls itself the "Democratic People's Republic of Korea."  Third, Keir Starmer is generally regarded as a center-left or moderate social democratic politician, not a fascist. In fact, many people on the British left criticize him for moving Labour toward the political center.  It's perfectly reasonable to disagree with Starmer's policies, but calling him a Marxist fascist requires redefining both "Marxist" and "fascist" beyond what those terms actually mean.</description><pubDate>Thu, 04 Jun 2026 13:35:27 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Safety wearing a (Jewish) kippa in your area of Thailand?</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1396058-safety-wearing-a-jewish-kippa-in-your-area-of-thailand/?do=findComment&comment=20537262]]></link><description>Bait ignored.

Ukraine isn't installing nuclear missles! You sound like a disguised Kremlin propagandist actively spreading outrageous misinformation. Maybe you fooled an ignorant idiot or two. In fact upon the breakup of the USSR, Ukraine gave up all it's nukes which were actually USSR nukes in exchange for security "guarantees" from both the US and Russia to have their borders respected. Obviously broken promises from both the US and Russia. This is the root of why Ukraine needs a much stronger security deal to negotiate a peace. They were burned.

We share a common past, a centuries-old culture, the victory against the Nazis at the cost of 15 million lives, and the fierce resistance against the US, which constantly threatened them.  I would have liked Russia to join the European Union.  I strongly condemn Zelinski for accepting the plan to install US nuclear missiles on his soil, clearly intended to put pressure on Russia.  Furthermore, I don't hate, but I have no particular sympathy for Ukraine, which will continue its resistance until no able-bodied person is left standing.</description><pubDate>Thu, 04 Jun 2026 13:22:02 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Issue with anti-virus and banking app</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1396071-issue-with-anti-virus-and-banking-app/?do=findComment&comment=20537251]]></link><description>I just installed free Bitdefender Security on my and my wife's phones and neither her or my banking apps would open, saying it wasn't safe with the new app installed.

Get today's headlines by email   The US House of Representatives approved the measure on Wednesday by a 215-208 vote. The resolution seeks to require Trump either to withdraw US forces involved in the conflict or obtain congressional approval for any further military action. In a post on Truth Social on Thursday, Trump condemned the vote, arguing it came at a critical stage in efforts to end the conflict. "Yesterday, in a meaningless vote, the House voted, 4 bad Republicans and all of the Dumocrats, to limit my War Powers, right in the middle of my final negotiations to end the War with the Islamic Republic of Iran," he wrote. "Who would do such an unpatriotic thing." White House PushbackThe White House has dismissed the resolution, arguing that it lacks meaningful effect and represents an unconstitutional attempt to restrict presidential authority. The measure adopted by the House is a concurrent resolution. If it also passes the Republican-controlled Senate, it would not require the president's signature to take effect. However, its legal standing could face challenges. Trump continued his criticism in the same social media post, accusing Democrats of opposing him for political reasons and directing particular anger at the Republican lawmakers who broke ranks. "The Democrats are fueled by Trump Derangement Syndrome. They would rather have our Country fail than give me another, of many, victories," he wrote. Referring to the four Republicans who supported the resolution, Trump added: "They're GRANDSTANDERS! They should be ashamed of themselves." Growing Pressure Over the WarThe House vote marked the fourth effort by lawmakers to curb Trump's war powers during the conflict. A similar resolution advanced in the Senate in May, although senators have not yet held a final vote on the measure. While the resolution is widely viewed as largely symbolic, its passage increases political pressure on the administration as concerns over the war grow. Rising petrol prices and increasing public opposition have added to scrutiny of the White House's handling of the conflict. The vote also highlighted divisions within the Republican Party. It came shortly after a separate dispute in Congress led the administration to abandon plans for a $1.8 billion "anti-weaponization" fund intended to support political allies. Republican Split EmergesThe four Republicans who voted in favour of the resolution were Thomas Massie of Kentucky, Brian Fitzpatrick of Pennsylvania, Tom Barrett of Michigan and Warren Davidson of Ohio. They joined all House Democrats in supporting the measure. Democrat Jared Golden of Maine, who had opposed similar efforts in the past, also voted in favour this time. Barrett defended his decision, arguing that Congress has a constitutional role in authorising war. "Congress alone declares war, that's something certainly we need to be protective of," he said. Asked whether he feared retaliation from Trump, Barrett replied: "I vote my conscience for what I think is right and willing to accept that."  Join the discussion?   Already a member?
