Not should. Is all you need to say. If they don't get that then being done is correct anyway

Fuck your red herring. They should've been punished too. Continue to go fuck yourself.

Really? Even though he blatantly defied the constitution and attacked a foreign state out of nowhere without approval? That isn't enough, he also needs to be stupid and easily manipulated (which he obviously is based on the mountains of evidence) before you want to hold him accountable?

Go fuck yourself.

You cannot directly compare two populations without accounting for differences in size. Doing otherwise is very bad data science. That's why it's per 100,000 and thus takes size out of the equation. Which is good. That's a confounding factor that is trivial to deal with. Given my previous observation that many US states have populations directly comparable to other countries, the "comparing states with countries" complaint goes from vaguely plausible to inane immediately.

Thank you for defining how averages work?

Because US states have populations and areas comparable to other countries. Just the US topping the charts is expected. How many states you have to get through to see other countries is interesting.

Because it isn't searching. It's printing the thing that is probabilistically "correct". There is no thought or lookup or anything that a person would do to actually be correct

How is a per-capita incarceration rate, with a reference to the superset included directly on the plot, misleading? Other than including more than El Salvador for the sake of external reference, which is almost certainly a size issue.

It's kinda like that saying: if you owe your friend $100, they have power over you. If you owe your friend $10,000, you have power over them.

It's extra fun because I can't tell which one is thinking it.

My therapist has me down as being subclinical and I feel the same, but I have the reasonable belief it was more due to childhood neglect/abuse than autism.

In theory, a really interesting (if it weren't unethical) place for llms would be elder scrolls NPCs (not touching feasibility either). Give them a two sentence background and let the immoral magic do its work. Throw in some voice creation and you'll be cooking with gas.

Yup. I switched to linux on my home computer and now the more time I spend with it, the more I pity my work computer for the cancer it has to deal with.

 

Not a sockpuppet.

I was venting over at !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world about Reddit mods being... Reddit mods. On top of having a good version of offmychest that allows people to be angry at the things that are bugging them, orphiebaby went ahead and made a new community to replace the one I was venting about on behalf of my partner.

Cheers to you orphiebaby! This isn't quite the spirit of the sub as I understand it, but you get praise anyway.

 

So I stopped generally using Reddit after the whole API thing but my husband still does and we talk about stuff since Lemmy gets the job done.

One thing he likes is to hop on r/freecompliments and participate there.

Well, today he got permanently banned. Why? Because a bot dredged his profile and found that he sometimes participates in porn subreddits. Usually to complement people there, never posting himself. He's pretty ace, so it's rarely, if ever, sexual. But that was enough for the bot to ban him.

They sent a message about how they are sfw subreddit and don't allow users to participate in NSFW subreddits.

He's heartbroken about it. He really likes to be nice to people and it makes his day when they respond to him. Now he can't do that in a sub that's meant for it.

I feel like the site rules have opinions about banning like this, but it's not like the admins give a fuck. So fuck those mods and their puritanical bullshit making at least once persons day worse, for the low cost of a user that was participating in good faith.

And since I'm on a roll, fuck spez

I tried posting this to trueoffmychest to dredge some sympathy for him, since that seemed appropriate and he was good with it, but they don't allow 'anger' or 'impersonal' posts and that got quietly removed immediately. So fuck them too. I didn't realize how far down the shitter reddit has gone.
