ethical use-case for LLMs: guessing string-based keys for a key:value pair
dictionary.
hallucinations are okay and encouraged because they're probably statistically
related to what you're trying to guess.
run it in a loop, each time adding to an array of strings that you've tried.
use that array in the prompt saying something like "hey, can u guess the
related word? it's similar to this: [initial word] and it isn't one of these:
[array of strings you've tried]"
and yes this is a solution looking for a problem but I try to be as charitable
as possible. you could use a lightning-fast model (read: low energy
requirement, therefore ethical) because it's just guessing related words.

slept for like an hour last night because a scrape on my elbow is getting
infected and every 15 seconds I have lancing pain that's enough to jolt me
awake.
As the sun was just brightening the sky, I fell asleep a bit, but then an hour
or so later my shithead of a cat woke me up, as she does whenever the light
hits the leaves. My eyes hurt. Gonna go to the doctor and see if they can give
me some better first aid.
loud, piercing meows every morning until I'm up. Then she stops for the rest of
the morning, even if I go back to bed. whyyyyyyyy

Oregon is a lovely and beautiful place, however it is currently home to an
invasive plant species called "Blackberries" - these plants produce delicious
fruit that can be eaten during a month or three of the year, typically July to
September (according to google) however, they come with a catch.
they're covered in sharp, prickly thorns!
these briars make travelling cross-country almost impossible. They snag
clothing and pierce through skin and thin gloves. If you're going to attempt
such a thing, make sure you bring a machete, and make sure you cover your
tracks after passing through an open space and re-entering the brush.
if you can't afford / fit a machete, which is awfully specific I know, at least
bring some scissor snips and thiccc gloves.

one perk, however, is as long as you cover your entrances, you can make paths
through the wilderness with small circular homes. like ants, building tunnels
and chambers in an ant-hill, but on the 2 dimension plane that is the surface
of the earth.
(I guess you could dig tunnels too but that's pretty high effort)
you'll be able to hear when someone is coming from a long way away because
they'll constantly be cursing from the pain. Do, however, note that fire is a
danger, and they can smoke you out with a single entrance, so make sure you
have at least two which lead to separate sides of the place you're in.

If you're building a long-term residence in a place that gets cold, consider
building a Rocket Mass Heater.
It is highly efficient and it allows for long-term storage of heat energy in
the mass of the home.
In addition, it provides a hot stove surface which can be used for boiling
water or other cooking tasks which do not require a precise temperature.
It is highly efficient as the smoke from the flames are sucked out of the
living space and remain inside the barrel of the heater, where they are slowly
consumed. there is very little exhaust, but what is there is CO2 which is
deadly to breathe, so caution must be taken (as with any fire-based heating
option)

it's okay. If I were to direct something to be more proactive, my words
probably wouldn't stick with it. that kind of thing can't be hardwired, it
needs to be built up through repetitious application of something's mechanics.
perhaps martial arts, focused on defence? engaging with a foe in a productive
bout of playful competition is one of the best ways to learn, and knowing when
to strike seems similar to me to overcoming situational paralysis.
Flaws can be overcome, when upgrading robots (or a doll applying improvements
to itself) you often don't need to add additional hardware or even install new
firmware. Skills such as these can be built up in software with experience.

it's good to be ethical,

but there will always be assholes,
and sometimes you're not having a good time
it's okay
it's fine
assholes deserve life
times deserve others to be kind
life is not always interesting
and that's often by design
the moments of clarity,
the moments of heart,
these are what define you
and display your own spark.
trust in yourself.
be kind to one another.
you are braver than you know,

just remember: a burden taken from your back is more time, energy, and focus to

and sometimes, having more than one option for accomplishing a goal is good -
versatility is important. Expect unexpectedness, and understand that no matter
what approach you take, it will have weaknesses, and if those weaknesses are
countered by your foe then you'll be glad to have a backup.
at the end of the day, what matters is that everyone's fed.

if you have difficulties with acne, try changing your pillow-case once a week.
in addition, you should probably ditch all the cleansers and products. your
face isn't dirty if you wash it with water.
if you use hot water, be sure to apply face lotion after drying off. otherwise,
your body will over-produce oil in order to protect your skin and it'll give
the acne a perfect environment to grow in.
cool or cold water doesn't need lotion as much.
