Incredible, seemed to happen quicker than I thought it would. Hope he has a strong recovery!

Thought this was another CStarr thread ... carry on.

On a world scale wrestling seems to have low recreational and performance enhancing drug scandals in the United States. I think we as Americans just stay ahead of what can be tested for better than other countries until a substance becomes banned its technically not illegal it guess

Good guess on Wright, but he had "only" two wins over #1 seeds (Honeycutt, Kilgore) to go with three wins over #2 seeds. And surprisingly Jaggers had a single win over a #1 seed (Mendes)

@PortaJohn has a whole song about it ... don't know why he hasn't released it.

Star was just growing the sport by getting ideas for a womens wrestling program?

Is it possible he just went to Wegmans to get fish oil for his dad ... and well ... we know the rest of the story ...

I think it's reasonable for him to be in the top 50 cruiserweights or beat someone in top 50. A rematch w fury would be very winnable. I agree he isn't a title contender right now. Props for making the fat cash though. Since so many people want to watch him or have interest. Look at us here talking about this guy.

I just explained the situation to Chat GPT and asked it to formulate an excuse for a press release (I didn't mention Brooks by name, but said he was religious): To my supporters, teammates, and the sporting community, It is with a heavy heart that I share the news that a recent USADA test found a banned substance in my system. I want to be completely transparent about the circumstances that led to this. Earlier this year, I underwent a minor orthopedic procedure and was hospitalized with pneumonia. During my recovery, I turned to various over-the-counter supplements to support my healing process — all of which I purchased legally and in good faith from a local grocery store. Unfortunately, one of those supplements contained a substance prohibited by Olympic standards, though it is legally sold and available to the general public. I take full responsibility for what has happened. I did not check thoroughly enough with my medical and nutrition team, and for that, I am deeply sorry. I would never knowingly or intentionally compromise the integrity of sport or disrespect the values I hold dear. As a devout Christian, I turn to scripture during this difficult moment: “Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance.” — James 1:2-3 This is a test I did not expect, but I accept it with humility and faith. I will cooperate fully with USADA and any governing bodies to resolve this matter justly. To the young athletes who look up to me: let this be a reminder to remain vigilant. Always read every label, and seek wisdom in every choice, even the ones that seem minor. I am committed to clearing my name through the proper channels and, more importantly, continuing to live and compete with integrity, passion, and purpose. Thank you for your prayers and continued support.

Total guesses but I'll try: Quentin Wright J. Jaggers

Only two wrestlers have beaten three #1 seeds in their career. Name them.

If he did take DHEA, he is a complete idiot. How can he not know that it is banned? That is just reckless.

"but hopefully he will wait until the drugs wear off" It is amazing she can maintain her sense of humor through such difficult times. Ben is a lucky man.

that is huge

Mistral Large for code review on passion projects. Claude is generally very effective for everything else but the hallucinations drive me nuts when over-prompted. The best running leaderboard imo is https://aider.chat/docs/leaderboards/ ETA: I use ChatGPT for mobile/iPad when I need something quick

Review time of x days should be mandatory for all bills. Both parties cry like little girls when the other party does it and both parties don’t give a shyte whey they do it. It’s emberrasing really. I don’t know how grown azz adults on both sides of the aisle can whine like babies and then do the same shyte next term. It’s like us grown azz adults don’t know your faking / lying / pandering. neither party wants this fixed. They don’t care

Demand is overrated and what people think is AI is actually nothing more than Language Learning Machines (LLMs). Remember the metaverse? It's like that except for replacing customer service and some automation (but not as much as is claimed - many claims are there as an excuse to execute mass layoffs)

How cool! (Your job, not Grok's suction ability). I'mlve been debating which local LLM to run on my machine. Do you have any suggestions? I have 64gb ram, 16gb of latest gen vram, 8 core 16 thread AMD processor

Wow

Ya. That’s why I made the joke Leslie knope called and wants psu to revoke his parks and req degree ha.

Will share the post when I get a chance, but Ben successfully went through his double lung transplant, incredible news!

Seems like an articulate guy but does go extreme on some issues. I have a hard time believing he would get elected considering the amount of Jewish people in NY, but who knows. He especially lost me when he said that there shouldn't be any billionaires and that the money should be spread out equally...yikes!

Basch and Willie just announced that Ben just had a double lung replacement. Great news.
