  • It's also an option with some of the Canadian companies so I have to make sure the two year term is to-own whenever I get a new phone.

  • You're going to want to run a LOT of math before you finish ordering the gas lol. I'm thinking a bird would be optimal for the hollow bones, but it also wouldn't be confusing, just ominous. Mouse?

  • I meant more that chat implies it could be literally anyone because it's anonymous. Like when the game's developer or some guy with 100k followers suddenly drops in to a little guy's stream. You wouldn't know unless they announced themselves lol

  • fun bonus points for "Anatomy of Trudeau's fall" on top-left lol

  • Because brains literally need exercise, and conversations with other real humans are the best kind it can get, so you're literally speedrunning an increased potential of dementia and alzheimers with every fake email.

  • Brought to you by chrome being the biggest browser and it willfully enshittifying adblockers, which incidentally made searching way more tedious and funneled people to LLMs.

  • Cus you don't need to try something to have done some research on why you wouldn't. A basic, cursory search of 'what is chat gpt' would get you LLM, and a basic cursory search of LLM gets you 'machine designed to make shit up whenever it doesn't know the answer, meaning you can't trust it'. Not to mention they've probably seen at least one screenshot of it failing miserably at counting letters in a word. Or they've seen the ai answers Google shoves down their throat and learned from basic word of mouth that GPT is More of That. The only thing they said they don't know is WHERE GPT is, or how it's accessed.

  • Yeah she was working on AI auto-transcription for audio thinking 'this will help people sort audio! Yay' and found out it's 'it'll help them sort audio of Palestinian phone calls so we can forward locations to the Israelis for bombings! No!' Like how dynamite was supposed to be for construction and then it got turned into bombs.

    How would you even screen tech work to make sure you're not contributing to genocides by applying? Only apply to companies that explicitly say 'Free Palestine' on their profiles? Do they even exist in the USA? Not to mention she familiarized herself with the policy supporting human rights concerns before sending that message. The one that in a sane world would have prevented any of this from even happening (Microsoft's involvement anyway).

  • It's also the most unbiased word for referring to a group in a gender neutral way I've seen lol most others have implications of status (gentlepersons, folks), are still technically gendered (guys, not to mention this implies relatively young people too), or overbroad (everybody is well, everybody. Chat implies you're addressing your community or a small group since they're the ones who would be talking to you).

  • I mean that's what hormone blockers are for, anyway, though since a lot of places put medical rights at 14 you could start there. Precocious puberty is overrated.

  • I'm pretty sure the body IS property of the person who has it, at least once they're old enough to make medical decisions. That's why you can donate it to science in your living will. In the 'relatives should be able to do what they want with it' case, cutting it up would damage its integrity, and if the will doesn't specify who owns what then it could be a dispute that requires arbitration, much like when people have to agree to sell a house together in an estate, and then you'd need to i guess freeze it or something while they legally hash that out. Of course religious-born laws on mutilation of bodies means that you can't actually put that in your will, even tho if you go the science option the government will totally do that. It's hypocritical, I agree.

  • unfortunately the page for registering interest in a switch 2 preorder says it's may 8 for both canadians and americans :( might be a problem with manufacturing location. https://www.nintendo.com/en-ca/gaming-systems/switch-2/how-to-buy/

  • being unsure or uncaring is supposed to be agnosticism, though. atheism is an outright rejection of the possibility. (this is NOT a commentary on if one is more correct than the other.)

  • except quebec! Maybe canada but I never hear about this outside of here. salmon (usually canned) and potatoes with a cream sauce full of sliced hard boiled eggs. https://www.food.com/recipe/salmon-pie-with-egg-sauce-340901#recipe also I saw a russian salmon and rice pie recipe pop up when I was searching this up

  • I was going to correct myself on saying canada should be greener cus it's currently off msrp by 100 bucks (canada computers stock https://www.canadacomputers.com/en/916/powered-by-amd) but then I remembered that they might have gotten it back when the exchange was 1.47 instead of 1.42 cus life suuucks rn, and that's not even including the steel and aluminum tariffs that were already in place pre-launch. sigh

  • added collecting cans for deposit to my walks. Gives me stuff to look at instead of playing with my phone, some interesting challenges with the leftover snow and muddy slopes, and sometimes I'll pick up more trash to throw out too :) been thinking of ordering a foldable grabber tool for getting the stuff stuck in bushes lol

  • On the one hand, DNS was being needlessly accusatory and the logic of 'you don't understand how predators work so you must be one' is silly. On the other hand, I get why they're being so caustic because YES CP is ABSOLUTELY used exactly how they describe. The idea is that by getting the child used to sexual activity, they'll get used to thinking about sexual activity and won't be as freaked by inappropriate propositions, perhaps even believing they're the initiator instead of being manipulated and taken advantage of, and then they won't report the predator to authorities. Not to mention some of the predators who actually feel child attraction (as opposed to the more than 50% who are just rapists of opportunity) use that manufactured consent to self-delude themselves into thinking 'well they're enjoying it and they said yes so I'm not REALLY doing anything wrong'.

    Part 4 on this article interviewing someone who was trying to research pedos on the dark web, for one example: "In other words, there are child molestation crusaders out there, and Pam ran into a lot of this on the Deep Web. Below is one response to a 7axxn post from a guy, bemoaning his inability to be anything but a "leech" (a person who consumes the content but never submits any) because his family situation made it impossible to actively share child pornography. The other members suggested he could aid "the cause" by helping to "enlighten & educate" the children in his life on the "true philosophies of love"" https://www.cracked.com/personal-experiences-1760-5-things-i-learned-infiltrating-deep-web-child-molesters.html

  • tbf if the hens aren't producing for commercial purposes, they could be vaccinated, like they're thinking of doing in america.

  • Shout-out to Gamers Nexus for making a written site for all their content https://gamersnexus.net/ tho i recognize that's not very helpful for avoiding American lol
