I never said they were intelligently designed. Evolution is an iterative, stochastic design process that produced a bunch of badass motherfuckers that stunt on everything else on this planet- us. Our ancestors needed dopamine reward systems to encourage them to hunt and to kill. It is how they survived to produce us. It is baked into our DNA.
I do not hunt, personally. I am disabled. However, I respect those that do. It’s in their blood. Who are we to judge? No one is perfect, and that’s the whole point.
Evolution has given us dopamine receptors that reward hunting. It’s not as necessary in modern society, but nevertheless, our ancestors needed it.
For the record, I don’t hunt. I was forced to as a kid, but I’m disabled and I couldn’t really do it. It was a horrible experience and I don’t want to hurt anything.

So not every use is dumb, just like lasers are useful in science.
When they called the function, they didn’t specify any cells. The copilot function, like any other Excel function, cannot see cells that aren’t given to it.
The second argument is blank, so it just Gave a typical answer to a sum question.
This is a male XLR. You can’t plug into a microphone. You can destroy your preamp, interface, or mixer though.




Hell yeah, I went with Oiltism.
