I sorta love shooting and gun games the most. I often grab them when I have time to game. I like that they are working more explicitly and straightforward. You generally have a clear idea of what you are supposed to be doing, and the controls are often clear. Most of the time it really is just about aiming, moving and reacting to what’s happening on the screen. That kind of premise is so basic but it would probably still engage me.

I also appreciate the diversity in these games. Some are set in military communities. Some are more science fiction. Some are more focused on precision, some on making quicker decisions. Even when aiming for the same goals, every game is going to treat the weapons, the maps, and the rules in a different way. Graphics or story don't matter too much to me. As long as I can understand the mechanics and I feel like losing or winning is fair, that’ll be enough.

I don't queue with voice chat and generally stay away from ranked. I just like playing casually. I can go solo or go in teams, but I typically choose the same kind of loadout each time. I personally do not enjoy unlocking cosmetics or playing side missions. I get straight to the part where you’re aiming and shooting and pushing forward. That part is enough for me.

Look at this black cat. The thing about black cats, people’s reactions are often so different. Some people are attracted by their unique appearance, or the fact that they do not look like all the other cats. Others stay away from them due to ancient superstitions that link black cats to bad luck. All the same, these beliefs are held in various cultures for many years, despite not being grounded in reality or anything tangible.

Black felines behave, need, and get sick the same way other cats do. They eat the same food, react to the same sorts of care and have the same spectrum of personalities. The color of their fur, in fact, is their only true difference, governed by genetics. Black cats are not adopted as much as cats with other colors in many or possibly most shelters. Some believe this is connected to superstitions. Some others speculate it may have to do with the fact that facial features are harder to make out in pictures, which can affect adoption profiles online.

Then there are people who have black cats simply because they love to go against the norm. In that instance, the cat’s appearance is a part of an expression or preference. But none of that changes what the cat is. A cat is just a cat, with fur. It’s not the way it behaves, or what kind of care it requires.

These kids singing that corona song just reminded of 5 years ago, when that pandemic messed the world up. I actually thought it was the end

You guys remember corona season, thank God that’s over, at least for most of us, ha ha. It went on longer than most people probably imagined. At first, it seemed like a momentary disruption, but turned out to change a whole lot of normal life for quite a while. People were spending more time indoors and a lot of work and school was moving online. Travel stopped or slowed down. Some businesses shuttered altogether, others had to change the way they did business.

Some grew very ill, and many lost family and friends. In some places, hospitals were overrun. There were protocols regarding masks, distancing and hand washing. Some followed them, and some did not. There was also plenty of debate around what was true and what was not. Then vaccines appeared, and that began to nudge things into more normal, but it took some time.

Some still bear the consequences today. Some have long-term health issues. Others never fully made up school or work. Some continue to wear masks in public. Still others prefer not to think about it at all. People had totally different experiences. Not everyone traversed it in the same manner.

When people say that sheep wiggle their butt up and down when they walk, they are typically referring to the tail, not the buttocks. The motion is primarily the tail swinging side to side from moving up and down in step when the sheep moves. This tail motion, on some sheep, those with short hair or docked tails in particular can resemble that the back end is shaking. But sheep lack gluteal muscles that oscillate as obviously as people's, so they are not consciously shaking their butt. Any movement in your back is simply due to natural muscle shifts that occur when you walk.

The tail is wagging in part due to the cadence of the step. The tail also wags as the legs propel the movement. Tail flicking can occur when the sheep is alert or interested in something. Ewes with new babies will wag their tails like crazy, especially the lambs feeding. It's a hefty answer, which is often associated with stuffing.

Sheep don’t all express this movement in the same way. Breeds which retain a full tail, such as some traditional or feral sheep, demonstrate the tail articulation more clearly. In the commercial situation, many sheep have docked tails, so the tail motion is less apparent or virtually non existent.

If you see a sheep whose butt appears to wobble as it walks, you’re probably just seeing regular tail action.

Some developers have engineered artificial intelligence tools which can now write, and understand code. These tools are improving at doing things that needed a human who can code.

The concern has emerged that some programming jobs may no longer be or will be completely different. It's interesting because the developers were the ones that actually built the systems, which are now replacing/encroaching on their work.

This is an uncomfortable position for many developers. Initially working on AI tools may have produced a sense of pride and commitment to improving productivity along with reducing errors and so forth. It is hard not to recognize the irony when the tools they created, and were employed to develop are now being replaced by the same tools. Some are adapting by learning how to work with the systems or trying to retrain for human oriented thinking tasks, and others just do not know what to do.

AI can now write and find bugs, it can explain functions and even provide alternative solutions to arguments, or task.

It does still require some dumb user direction in many cases, but the gap is smaller and smaller. The question many developers are asking their selves is what's my role going to be.

Elon Musk’s AI company got permission to keep running gas turbines in Boxtown, Memphis, after a year of illegal pollution. Local residents and environmental groups are pushing back. Watch the video and see exactly what’s happening and why it matters.
