Even if you perfectly solve crashes (doubtful, definitely not something that exists right now), the problems of microplastic pollution from tires and emissions from electricity generation are non-trivial.

I can’t think of any audience that would be worse to interact with for Only Fans type content than redditors.

Y’all know decimate was the headline and this was the actual statement, right?

I will do everything in my power to unite the Democratic Party — and unite our nation— to defeat Donald Trump and his extreme Project 2025 agenda.

I think people are underestimating the enticement of having a woman president for the first time, because Clinton lost the EC. But that doesn’t mean that energy isn’t there, especially after losing Roe.

Whaaat, you’re telling me the people insisting that it’s literally not legally possible to run anyone but Biden at this point were full of shit?? 🙄

Yeah, Rimworld was in early access for 5 years and was worth the price the entire time IMO. Project Zomboid has been in early access for over a decade! If you just blanket ignore early access games you’re cutting yourself off from some excellent games.

Come off it, not being allowed to be on your cell phone during school hours isn’t the same as KOSA.

The APA document you linked even specifically discusses the effects of social media (what do you think they’re using their phones for?) on mental health.

Not sure I understand why train games are on topic because they’re open source but an open source desktop icon isn’t.

Concept artist Sam Santala pointed out that you can’t raise a support request to discuss the terms without first agreeing to them. You can’t even uninstall the apps!

Well, at least they made this as easy as possible to challenge in court.

But given the way AI bros behave I suspect this is a smash and grab. The penalties don’t matter if they get to keep the goods in the form of generative AI training.

The biggest problem with AI alt text is that it lacks the ability to determine and add in context, which is particularly important in social media image descriptions. But people adding useless alt text isn’t exactly a new thing either. If people treat this as a starting place for adding an alt text description and not a “click it and I don’t have to think about it” solution I’m massively in support of it.

I’m not using “AI” in web searches no matter how much any VC bro’s golden parachute depends on it, sorry. Refusing to partake or even using tools to filter out LLM trash are perfectly fine ways to adapt to search engines leaning on AI hype to try to convince you that their inability to combat SEO spam is good, actually.

“How would these students know how to barricade a door?” Daughtry asked on Newsmax, as he charged that protesters wouldn’t have been capable of measures like locking doors with chains, blocking them with vending machines, or disabling security cameras.

Come the fuck on. I’m too old to have been through school shooter drills, but I’m not too stupid to remember that for the last 20 years this is what kids have been taught to do to deal with psychopaths with guns on campus. They start teaching it in kindergarten! At this point a kid not knowing how to do this stuff is like a kid that doesn’t know to stop, drop, and roll when on fire.

Competently treating trans patients is more than knowing what medications someone is on. I know trans people that have had doctors strongly push medical detransition for having minor temporary health problems completely unrelated to their HRT. Immediately hitting the ‘medically detransition’ button every time one value goes out of range on one blood test isn’t competent care. Google ‘trans broken arm syndrome’. This stuff all has an effect on whether or not trans people seek care and how competent the care they receive is. If you set up in the minds of medical professionals that trans people are ‘actually’ their birth sex then you’re setting trans people up for receiving bad care, period.

I’m one of the people that would be forced into a room with women and I have no tits and grow facial hair my dude. It doesn’t make me or them safer. Your position is simply stupid and coming from a place of bigotry.

You obviously cared somewhere along the line till it comes to something that actually matters

What are you even trying to get across here?? lmao

If a trans woman thinks there’s even the possibility that she’s going to be stuck in a ward with men then odds are she’s not going to go unless she feels like she’s about to die. This means preventable stuff spirals, which is one part of why trans people are more likely to die of preventable illnesses.

In addition for someone who is on hormones, if you treat them as their birth sex medically then you’re going to be missing signs of illness or interpreting normal things as a sign of illness. Ex: it’s extremely common for trans men on testosterone to have “high” hematocrit levels, which can be a symptom of all kinds of problems and a risk for other problems… if you compare it to the typical range for cis women. If you compare it to the levels of cis men, for most people it’s completely normal. Focusing on non-problems like that instead of what brought someone in is going to result in a lower quality of care and make someone less likely to seek care in the future.

Didn’t ask, don’t care 🤓

Trans women aren’t men so that’s irrelevant here.

This is the right behind “Martha’s rule”, which is being introduced in the NHS, to ensure patients know they can ask for a second opinion, with[ the government providing funding to hospitals for posters and leaflets informing patients and their families.

Martha Mills died aged 13, after being admitted to King’s College Hospital, south London, in 2021, having injured her pancreas slipping on to the handlebars of her bike while cycling.

She later developed sepsis - but with better care, could have survived, an inquest found.

So they’re using the death of a child who was killed due to NHS incompetence to make trans people more likely to receive incompetent care or no care at all. Very cool and normal country.

Right?? You’re telling me I could have been sending JKR letters with fake stamps this whole time and SHE’D have been charged actual money for it? My new greatest regret in life is missing the timeframe where I could have done that.
