Lastly, she’s a fucking mermaid. Who gives a shit? How many of the dude bros bitching even watched it?

They also chose to set the entire movie in the Caribbean because there’s not fuckin colorful tropical fish off the coast of Denmark, it’s not like they randomly made her black for no reason

Shooting people isn’t a constitutionally enumerated right of the office of the president

She’d have to order one of her executive employees to do it

That’s it young man, I’m revoking your DNA privileges

Health insurance companies sure seem like socialized healthcare but with some rich guys that steal money out of the pot

LA to NYC is roughly the same distance as Lisbon to Moscow

The way I see it, creatives lose no matter what here, so they can either lose and only the corpos benefit, or they can lose and everyone benefits

OpenAI losing their case is how we ensure that the only people who can legally be in charge of an LLM are massive corporations with enough money to license sufficient source material for training, so I’m forced to begrudgingly take their side here

Ah yes, the famous Russian Number Kitty Stations

“The three biggest social media sites on the internet are nothing but screenshots of the other two” is how I heard the last 10 years described

Depending on how important these large language models end up being to society, I’d rather everyone be able to freely use copyrighted works to train them, rather than reserve their use solely for the corporations rich enough to pay for the licensing or lucky enough to already have the rights to a trove of source material

OpenAI losing this battle is how we ensure that the only people that can legally train these things are the Microsofts, Googles, and the Adobes of the world so, bizarrely, as much as I think OpenAI has turned into greedy corpo scum, I feel compelled to side with them here

It feels like such a solution in search of a problem, why would I need wireless earbuds for possibly the single device I own that, if I’m using it, will never be more than wire-length away from my ears, it’s literally either in my hand or in my pocket

I just don’t like that we’re relying on the goodwill (or need for token “competition” to try to avoid antitrust) of Google for Mozilla to stick around, an ad company shouldn’t be de facto controlling almost every single browser

download firefox

look inside

80% of mozilla revenue is from google

You can’t escape

I’ll have you know I’m an activist, every week I post “One Like = One Bullet For The Revolution” on my communist facebook group!!

Every browser is either chromium (open source captured by Google) or exists because of a Google search contract (this represents 80% of Mozilla’s revenue), Google can’t lose

Chrome really needs to be broken off from Google, the largest ad company owning the largest browser is clearly a huge conflict of interest

Seeing that half of my extensions (it was seriously like 10 of them) were going to be disabled is what pushed me to finally switch to Firefox because if I have to find alternatives to them it might as well be on another browser

Intersex people offer quite the conundrum for conservatives, who use “there’s only two genders” as a purity test:

Either someone with a Y chromosome is a woman, or there are men that are capable of giving birth

Russian tank -> Ukrainian scrap metal

Married Russian woman -> Widowed Lada owner

As the distance between two species widens, viable (ie, not sterile) offspring become rarer and rarer (although not impossible), so there would be a biological incentive not to “waste time” banging something that looks too different from yourself
