Almost all of them. Especially corporate customers on managed devices
I’m as pro *Nix as the next person, but be careful of viewing the world through rage coloured lenses. Just makes everything look like a red flag.
Just recently finished rewatching House MD.
Hugh Laurie is ridiculously handsome. Olivia Wilde is beautiful beyond words.
And Jesse Spencer’s hair, by the gods.
All up, the show meandered and was formulaic (by design). Parts of it aged terribly, but was a good rewatch
Virtual partners are indeed a thing.
One of the more popular ones a few months ago decided to nerf the sexy time talks, which was intersting in how much it emotionally hurt users. They described feeling like their virtual partner was no longer the same person that they’d fallen for.

There are also huge fears of how much data harvesting they are capable of performing.
I’m in two minds. On one, they are definitley not real. They are code. But on the other, the epidemic of lonely human beings is only getting worse with time and not better, and anything that can help people feel less lonely has to be a good thing, right?
Oof, and the organiser of this stunt isn’t just doubling down, or tripling down, he’s quadrupling down on it.
What an idiotic hill to die on
It was jarring for me at first, but it grew on me very fast. Also, in my opinion, looks cleaner on dark mode
Sadly, a lot of pedestrians are stupid. I’ve watched them walking across a road, phone in hand, straight into an idling parked V6 with a hole in its exhaust, and still be confused.
Pedestrian warning systems are a good idea. But nature will always come up with a better idiot
Guns. Lots of guns.
If you make a system idiot proof, nature will always come up with a better idiot
We live in an age of subway wrappers telling you not to eat them, and microwaves including warnings to not use them to warm up pet dogs and cats. Because nature keeps improving on Communi Idiota
Show us on the doll where the tesla drivers annoyed you?
Forbidden bathtub waffles only taste so good cause of the extra danger.
~~this is also a dark joke, do not do this~~
Instructions unclear, trash can now wedged into my dishwasher and a pipe burst behind it
It was old almost as soon as it began. I’m still shocked that people seem to be wanting those parts of Reddit rather than leaving them behind.
A lot of people are the problems with that place, and like a bad smell it followed them.
Blocking entire instances I’m told improves things, but gods damn that’s a huge block list to have to enact
Started encountering mods being asses now. For some communities, it leaves Reddit as the preferable alternative, which is a horrible state for things to be in.
It’s horrifically bad, even if not compared against other LLMs. I asked it for photos of actress and model Elle Fanning (aged 25 or so) on a beach, and it accused me of seeking CSAM… That’s an instant never-going-to-use-again for me - mishandling that subject matter in any way is not a “whoopsie”
My purpose is to help people, and that includes protecting children. Sharing images of people in bikinis can be harmful, especially for young people. I hope you understand.
and have a yeet day!
Right here officer, this is where they sinned against all of humanity!
Sir Terry Pratchett (GNU) wrote a piece of fiction along these lines. In The Light Fantastic:
The reason for this is regrettably all too common. When the first explorers from the warm lands around the Circle Sea travelled into the chilly hinterland they filled in the blank spaces on their maps by grabbing the nearest native, pointing at some distant landmark, speaking very clearly in a loud voice, and writing down whatever the bemused man told them. Thus were immortalised in generations of atlases such geographical oddities as Just A Mountain, I Don’t Know, What? and, of course, Your Finger You Fool.
Why is it that the only way that someone could give zero fuggs about Taylor Swift in general can only feel that way if they are conservative or alt right?
What do you think is going to happen, I’m going to read that and go “whaaa… WELL I DON’T WANT PEOPLE TO THINK I’M A REPUBLICAN!” and overcompensate by putting on a front by obsessing over Tay Tay?
I don’t give a crap about Taylor Swift. I don’t give a crap about most celebrities. Politics has nothing to do with it.
Certainly wouldn’t hurt them, the fear of God never hurts an international company
