It is a new level of a news organization directly acknowledging how much word salad he spews instead of treating it as normal.

PSA = Pirate Service Announcement?

Calm down Satan.

It is a fucking classic!

Novody is talking about relaxing the standard. People are opposed to additional barriers to voting designed to disenfranchise minority voters and sow distrust in the election process that is already proven to be secure.

Multiple massive audits of elections in the US have shown that voter fraud is so rare that it can be described as non-existent. Claims of dead voters have been disproven, claims of mail votes being fraudulent have been disproven.

The absense of evidence doesn’t apply when we have evidence that the exiting votes are overwhemlingly proven to be valid on the voter’s end.

Now election fraud, where Republicans get people pulled off voter rolls and their votes discarded as a strategy to suppress votes does exist. But thst is election fraud, not voter fraud.

They could, but unless they own their own catalogue and license the music in a way that lets them decide the context for its usage, the lawsuit probably wouldn’t go anywhere.

Not yet…

Honestly only having two body types is the lazy part, no matter what the two types are. The best solution would be a variety of heights, weights, shoulder, waist, and hip sliders with boobs and butts and whatever else as add ons to the body shape. That should cover everyone as long as there is plenty of range on each option.

Unless everyone is in armor, in which case two or three gender neuteal body types are fine because boobs and butts won’t be noticeable through armor anyway. Height is pretty much all that is different if everyone in the armor is in decent shape and the armor is made to fit a range of people.

Heck, I’d even take it a step further and have it include basic system specs for each review since Steam already gets that info.

That would get complex for games that are played for lengthy periods of time and across different builds. Basic specs as of the review would be cool though.

Victims just bring it on themselves!

Blaming a user for falling for malicious practices designed by multibillion dollars companies is like blaming the victim of a hit and run. “It was their fault for using the crosswalk, but the driver was also wrong for not stopping.”

Both sides!

If the practices are predatory, blaming the user is excusing the predatory practices. Bragging about how you use something else in that context is doubling down on blaming the user instead of the practices.

So no, I am not illiterate. You ahould have just left off the sentence blaming the victim.

No, fuck that. The ads being listed before rhe first result are intended to cause people to misclick. That isn’t all on the user.

Don’t excuse predatory business practices.

Yes, treating AI answers with the same skepticism as web search results is a decent way to make it useful. Unfortunately the popular AI systems seem to be using multiple times as much energy to give answers that aren’t even as reliable as google used to be.

Back in the day google was using the same ‘was this information useful’ to return results before the SEO craze took off.

And yes, if the stains look like rust and there is a gap then there was a ferrous rock in the mix that rusted away. I have a spot on my sidewalk and a stone slab thing, and found out what caused it from someone who works with those materials!

This is absolutely in line with who buys into AI hype and why it is infuriating to try to convince them that they are reading way too much into how it seems to know things when all it is doing it returning results are statistically likely to be found as helpful to the audience it is designed for.

I have said that LLMs and other AI are designed to return what people want to see/hear. It doesn’t know anything and will never be useful as a knowledge base or an independently functioning diagnostic tool.

It certainly has uses, but it certainly isn’t going to solve all the things that are promoted by the AI hype train.

The clause that the user signs upon registering to Disney+ is a binding arbitration clause.

Disney is taking it waaaay further than anyone else by saying a free trial to D+ means any legal interaction with Disney goes to arbitration, not just for D+.

Arbitration clauses in EULAs are bullshit anyway, but if this isn’t thrown out of court in a way that kills the concept of being able to sue for damages when every business adds this clause.

This is just saying the primary motivation wasn’t economic anxiety, it was and still is racism. It does not say that it is the only reason or that it is universal for all of his followers.

When you only have two hours of free time in the evening, losing one of those hours because you had to stay at work an extra hour is losing half of your free time for the day.

Making it text means it is something other than a number, but generally it has already screwed up the leading zeros by the time you have the opportunity to make it text.

You can set a special format if all the numbers are the same number of characters, but not for something like 0043 and 05467.
