then why didn't they just use pre-pandemic as the baseline instead?

It does seem like there is intent to mislead here.

It would've been told in strict terms not to do what it did. They attempted many times to stop the behaviour. OpenAI LLMs are well known for ignoring instructions.

Ah, hehe, I completely agree with your analysis ... but your conclusion is the opposite of my conclusion. Those are bad traits to have. It is a big fail for OpenAI.

That's not really MMOs generally either. It's just the subset that are built for cheating, and then try to claim not by slapping on anti-cheat DRM.

That doesn't help at all. Time zones are always needed.

Reminds me of where I live. It was a common trope that we were located well away from any earthquake fault lines until an earthquake destroyed a number of buildings here. Afterwards, the local papers happily reported how there was lots of evidence in the hills and rocks all around of ongoing activity but also past city records of prior events doing damage to dwellings when it was a smaller town. In fact, even the university here has always specialised in earthquake engineering.

It was a known, but public belief almost seemed to bury the history for some odd reason.

This is research, not art. All that should've been in the published paper from the outset. The dude is clearly guilty to the hilt. It's probably falsified raw data too.

Or even a tenth. It's spoilt brat hypocrisy all the way down with MAGA.

Or how about those southern states just shift their time zone instead of messing with everyone else.

He's full of shit in everything he says.

I'd be surprised if anything other than thriving is the case. There is obvious heat and plenty of water and nutrients.

It's liquid! That makes it really comfy. Unless it's somehow 100degC then I don't see how temperature is going to be any sort of barrier. And even exceeding 100degC is not out of bounds for extremophiles.

A composition of any chemicals beyond pure H2O is just a treasure trove for microbes.

For a board with Gigabytes of DRAM? I'd say quite a lot these days. More than enough for the scum to rise on.

Not to mention Trump will just change his mind the next day anyway. No one trusts Trump to honour anything he signs.

Some people clearly still have too much money.

It's only for five years, so none of it really matters.
