Worth noting a small progress is better than no progress at all. Sure, you might not be able to avoid all Meta products, because there's always someone among your acquaintances you couldn't contact otherwise; but by migrating whoever you can, you're at least reducing the amount of info you're exposing to Meta. At this rate might as well treat it by what it is - using a Meta product is to put yourself in a vulnerable position.

And, seriously, the idea of some AI "managing your schedule, anticipating your needs, running your home, helping you make decisions, and maybe even guiding your career" is fucking awful. Even if it was another human being doing it for free, this would be a bad idea - it's losing control over your own life. (inb4 not even secretaries do this - they handle the chores, but the overarching decisions are still up to the boss.) It gets worse when you remember those artificial "intelligence" systems aren't intelligent at all, and they do dumb shit all the bloody time.

I do recommend giving them a shot. Worst hypothesis (you hate it) they're easy to pick out.

One hint I can give you, if making it at home, is to soft-boil them (8min). You want the yolk firm enough to slice, but not too cooked - to compensate for the baking.

enjoy yours tomorrow

Thanks!

The sliced eggs go alongside other toppings; none of the toppings requires a lot of cooking time, so the eggs won't get overcooked.

This is a twist on a common local (Brazil) pizza flavour, pizza à portuguesa (lit. "pizza alla Portuguese"):

Except I'm subbing tomatoes for mushrooms.

I wish [email protected] and [email protected] got a bit more activity, but considering the size of the Fediverse and the relative obscurity of the subject, I think that's expected.

I kind of gave up [email protected] though. Nowadays the comm feels kind of pointless.

I'm also wondering if I should create a comm about something else. The problem is that I'm more of a commenter than a poster, so I struggle to nurture my comm's initial activity.

Assuming some lemmy.world user is from lemmy.ml.

Assuming OsrsNeedsF2P is not in Korea, even after being shown clear evidence they are.

Assuming the user above is a "shill for fascists", based on them saying North Korea doesn't want to use nukes.

They (you?; IDK/DC) don't know it. They're assuming all this shite.

And something needs to be said about their (your?) attitude towards people based on instance: it's both factually incorrect and morally disgusting. What they're (you're?) doing there is acting based on a stereotype.

Based on the modlog, I'm going to take an guess and say that the person in question posted an AI-generated image representing a fictitious but realistic child doing something sexual with an adult, and the removal entry doesn't show in the modlog because it was purged.

"Technically" this is not CSAM, but the difference does not matter here. No sane instance allows images depicting sex with children; doubly so if it can be reasonably confused with CSAM, like AI generated images can. So, if my guess is correct, the user deserved it.

And, if my guess is wrong (it could be - I don't know), the user still deserves a permaban, but under another reason: just look at the modlog. It boils down to the user assuming (i.e. making shit up, lying to know what they don't) things about other users, so they can screech at them. Being an assumer on its own is already bad, but a combative assumer is even worse.

I even left a chair near my desk, just for her

Since I posted Frieda's pic, might as well share my old lady Kika:

She's currently spending so much time on the chair people have joked I found a translation reviewer.

Wow, this looks delicious - and I have all ingredients in my kitchen+front yard! I'm probably trying it this week, barbecued, as soon as I get a non-rainy day. Thank you for sharing this!

Levine told The Atlantic that Ford does not “encourage or measure ‘sludge,’” and that “there was zero intent to add ‘sludge’” to my interactions with Ford.

Here's the catch: odds are that what Levine is saying is technically correct - truthful, but misleading.

Sure, they (people in those big businesses) might not be active and directly adding sludge. They might not be encouraging it. Or measuring it. But it's there. Because they created the perfect conditions for it to thrive, as the author shows.

And, sure, odds are they are not targetting the author; that sludge is for every single body in a similar situation.

Why this matters: because any potential law punishing sludge should disregard esoteric concepts like "intention", and focus solely on what the customer gets. If the customer is getting sludged, it doesn't matter if the business says "trust us ( = be gullible filth), we don't have the intention!" - the business should get the short end of the legal stick.

I checked the recipe, and it looks really good! A bit on the laborious side, but it could worse. (Worse as in "cleaning sardines from their scales and guts at home, so you can grill them, for five people".)

From the questions you often ask here, it seems you really enjoy movies - I hope you two have fun!
