Can someone explain what the joke?
Seattle baseball is doing well this year, and there are so many ChatGPT ads. There’s one where a guy is doing pull-ups. The text shows him asking ChatGPT for help doing pull ups. The response, as printed on the ad, generously typed by me for your convenience:
8-Week Pull-up Progression plan Weekly Schedule
- Day 1 - Strength focus
- Day 2 - Rest or light activity
- Day 3 - Volume focus.
- Day 4 - Core and mobility.
- Day 5- Full-body strength (optional).
Core exercises
- Negative pull-ups - 3x5 (5-10 seconds).
- Assisted pull-ups (bands or a machine) - 3x6-10.
- Inverted rows (under a bar) - 3x8-12.
- Lat pull-downs (if gym access) - 3x10-12.
- Dead hangs - 3x30 seconds
Supporting Work
- Core - Hanging leg raises, planks, and hollow holds.
- Biceps - Hammer curls and chin-ups
- Grip - Farmer’s carries and towel hangs
- Mobility - Scapular shrugs and shoulder abduction.
Tips for Faster Progress
- Do pull-ups when fresh.
- Track your reps weekly.
- Protein and calories matter
Wow, great advice. If I knew what a hammer curl was, I probably wouldn’t need your advice that “calories matter.” Also what does 3x6-10 mean? Reps, sets, and …?
Day 1, “strength focus” what the hell does that mean? You don’t say what strength focus is. You only provided core exercises. How come hanging leg raises and planks from supporting work aren’t listed in the core exercises? If day 2 is a rest day, then what are days 6 and 7?
Like what is the plan? Do they hope you don’t even read the text? Is that why it scrolls so fast?
Huh? They make computers. What are you talking about?

Yeah, that checks out.
This hits a little closer to home than I’m willing to admit.
Doom Eternal is good for this. You can basically drop out at any point and enter a tutorial for all of the weapons. And as far as plot goes… it’s Doom.
I play old GBA titles. Simpler quicker games that are easier to pick up and put down. Simpler items, simpler controls, simpler plots. Still fun and engaging.
Got an Analogue Pocket and have been working through all the 2D Zeldas.
Meanwhile I picked up Cyberpunk the first time it went on sale and have played through the tutorial like 5 times.
I haven’t had the “cool free stuff” opinion of software updates since like 2016.
I once saw pride dog poop bags. Like…
Yeah, like let’s put our servers in a gigantic Yeti mug. That’ll help them cool off.
That’s not enough for your body to detect.
You will die before you produce enough CO2 to detect.
You actually don’t even need to breathe to do this. If you hyperventilate to expel the CO2 from your blood then hold your breath, you will run out of oxygen before you build enough CO2 up to detect.
Uhm. Ackshally, your body can’t detect a lack of oxygen. In a box with no oxygen, you’d likely just peacefully doze off before you (maybe) die.
What your body does detect is a build-up of carbon dioxide. So if you want to torture someone, prevent them from expelling CO2, or put them in a room full of it.
Edit: for those downvoting, OP is basically describing a Sarco Pod
The Romantic. Really cool animated fantasy feature film from ~2009. For a while, the creator had it on Vimeo and even uploaded it to archive.org. Then he seemed to wipe every trace of it off the web. I can only find a shitty 320p version that someone must have had cached. It’s better than nothing, but I want to see it again in the full resolution that was once available.

I’ve been driving with Tesla FSD since it launched. It’s…okay. I’ve never had it blatantly try to drive me off the road, but it does make some really dumb decisions at intersections. Like it doesn’t seem to understand that there’s a right-turn only lane near my home. It also has recently started inching into intersections after stopping at red lights even though it correctly identifies that the lights are red.
All told, it’s a net positive. I find myself able to focus more on my surroundings rather than just keeping the car in its lane. That said, I would never ever trust it to do anything without my hand on the wheel. I even have a real recurring nightmare where I’m somehow stuck in the backseat and can’t reach the controls.
If Tesla set their goal at just decent driver assistance, I’d say they’re very close. But there is no way current autopilot is going to be steering their autonomous taxis around.
Pharos are speedrunning to get to New Game+ with all the loot from their first playthrough.
