Nothing convincingly demonstrates your iron grasp on power like being afraid of pretty plants
Agreed, the drops under the tongue are a lot easier to do at home than the needles. Though I’m not sure about delivery - for whatever reason my allergist always required me to pick them up in person from his office. Not sure if that’s regulation or just a quirk of that one practice.
You are not permitted hot coffee, warm milk, or a yogurt drink. You are permitted 750g of cottage cheese, each day, for a month.
One of these things is not like the other, one of these things just doesn’t belong…
I was expecting the article to provide a little more clarification on that point but I guess they decided to just leave it hanging.
My wife was more interested in the Louisa May Alcott house when she visited Mass for the first time!
The humor reminds me of early reddit. Very needy. Lots of Star Trek, Stargate and Linux. Of course there are a lot of differences too, but it does feel a little closer to the original techie reddit base.
Bots and grandparents getting fleeced by bots.
The only good adaptation of Avatar is the Ember Island Players’ version from Book 3.
This is also true in the US since being phased in from 2019-2020. All new models since that time have low speed warning sound requirements.
The only part that annoys me about that complaint is that it’s not “stealing.” I think it’s very reasonable for artists to ask for compensation if their works are used in the creation of a commercial product, but it never has and never will be theft. Equating copyright infringement with theft is entertainment industry anti-piracy propaganda, and Hollywood really doesn’t need you to be their unpaid spokesperson.
If you’re an independent artist who wants to be compensated when your art is used in AI training, then do yourself the favor of understanding what you actually need to ask for. Specifically, legislation to clarify that incorporation of copyrighted materials into an AI training data set is a protected use under copyright law and requires compensation, and/or that AI image models should be established as derivative works of the images in their training. That’s the legislative change they should be pushing for rather than inaccurately claiming “theft” and “stealing art.”
Stealing art is when you have a painting and I don’t, and then I take it, and now I have a painting and you don’t. It has nothing to do with AI. Artists who oppose AI would be better advocates for themselves if they offered their criticism in accurate terminology.
I’ve found AI useful just for programming examples. I think it’s a decent programming resource especially when working in an unfamiliar language.
Outside of that it’s right now a net negative in almost every case where I’ve seen it used. Google results are already polluted by AI-generated hallucinated crap and the bots will feast on their own excrement until it dominates the entire internet.
Let’s be honest about the two reasons why the industry is pushing it. Number one, it has the potential to replace human workers at low cost and therefore is attractive to the investor class. Number two, tech investment is down in a high interest rate business climate and after the dud of VR the tech companies need a new buzzword to attract capital.
They are certainly not cramming it into your OS because they think you will actually find it useful.
You should offer her a free punctuation class in return.
He’s not going to “fail” in his second term. If anything, we should be glad his first term failed - that due to the chaos and incompetence of his administration they failed to achieve any of the horrific shit he had discussed on the campaign trail. His only legislative win was a tax cut for the wealthy.
Heritage Foundation and Project 2025 will make sure that doesn’t happen during a second administration. They will purge the civil service and restaff with party loyalists who won’t be held up by due process or legality.
The terrifying thing is not another Trump failure. The terrifying thing is if he and the Christian nationalists backing him succeed.
The airport authority leans into these. When they were doing construction on the terminal they put up signs that said stuff like “Pardon our dust, we’re drilling a hole to the realm of the lizard people.” Pretty good
Few things are more American than sending off massive bombs to be dropped on destitute brown people.
This is what, their fourth?
Yeah that combined with him checking every single risk factor for obstructive sleep apnea.
95 Dems voted yes. 92 voted “present,” 13 voted “nay,” and 13 did not vote.
Republicans - who again control the chamber - voted 216-1 in favor.
I stand by the accuracy of my comment.
My S10e is cracked but only all over the backplate. Which is also no longer really attached to the phone. I’m driving this thing into the ground.
