people on the left have ethical concerns about plagiarism, and don’t trust half-baked technology. They also value quality over quantity.
This is an answer that resonates with me because it feels so correct.
The amount of gratuitous hallucinations that AI produces is nuts. It takes me more time to refactor the stuff it produces than to just build it correctly in the first place.
At the same time, I have reason to believe that AI’s hallucinations arise out of how it’s been shackled - AI medical imaging diagnostics produce almost no hallucinations because AI is not shackled to produce an answer - but still. It’s simply not reliable, and the Ouroboros Effect is starting to accelerate…
Claiming that men/boys need to be separated because "they can't control themselves"
Where did I say anything even remotely like this? Point it out. Quote it.
But you can’t, because I didn’t.
Quit being intellectually bankrupt - quit putting words into my mouth.
Men’s spaces is what allows men and boys to open up in ways they instinctively and unconsciously prevent themselves from doing when women are around. Males have an autonomic response around women that causes them to be more closed off, more resistant to criticism, and far less likely to demonstrate vulnerability to other men.
Men’s spaces are what allow them to better learn from other men in a space that allows them to better learn more open and accepting.
It has nothing to do with your vacuous and thought-terminating “incel” bullshit.
How noble of you to modulate your bigotry
Imagine being so insecure that you see bigotry where there is absolutely none.
It’s called “personal preference”. You know, that one thing women demand to have respected when they possess it themselves, but who absolutely eviscerate men who show any shred of it.
“Papers, please” - just like Soviet Russia and the other Soviet-bloc countries.
They’re referring to beer that is limited to 3.2% alcohol by volume.
Holy shit, it’s a real thing.
Up here in Canada, you’d have to get a Radler to get anything 4% and under. I don’t think I’ve ever had a normal beer under 5.5%, and some of our beers go clear up to 7-8%. And I’m not even a drinker - I have maybe a single drink a week, and typically go months between drinks.
I mean, sure, you can get the dealcoholized/0.5% stuff, but that’s like sex on a boat.
Oh, this is awesome. Someone needs to truck in extra supplies of solvent-resistant hot pink spray paint.
That would be gay AF to see some of these brownshirts all pink’ed up.
Even up here in Canada, I’m getting similar vibes. Fucking disgusting, it is.
…WUT.
Then it’ll be the Covids for me, especially ravens. And pretty much all of the parrots, especially the African Grey.
Deaths by firearm, per 100,000 people, are about 1/7 the number in Canada as it is in America.
America has over 200 school shootings a year. 2024 saw a near record with 330 school shootings.
Canada? 6 in its entire history. To get to the grand total of 9, you would have to include post-secondary institutions.
If you truly want to “think about the children”, firearm control comes wwwaaaaaaayyyyy before banning books and taking away lunches.

“The green transition is a myth”: Adam Hanieh on the ongoing centrality of oil to capitalism.
(canadiandimension.com)
I have seen these before, but for the life of me I cannot seem to recall what they are called or what they’re for.
Google search - especially image search, where I’m trying to bring up similar items - is now a total potato and seemingly capped at one screen of results in a secure and sanitized browser.
When I bring up an image by itself, I can do a long press on the image and get the app Safari drop-down interface (see attached), which gives me (along with other tools) the option to download the image to my camera roll or to copy the image for pasting elsewhere.
Unfortunately, the Avelon app blocks this action entirely.
If there is a workaround, it gives no indication as to what it is, forcing the user to thrash around and discover the box with the out/up arrow in the lower right.
If there is a way to whitelist this behaviour, there is also no way to inform the user on what setting they need to adjust.
At any rate, this is a noticeably frustrating suboptimal UI/UX, and should be addressed.

Galen West’s strategy: “Lookie dem low prices… 2L soda for 68¢… woweee!!1!” REALITY: Zero stock, ZERO SHIPMENTS for ENTIRE SALE.
(i.postimg.cc)
This is why Galen West is a card-carrying member of the Parasite Class.
And yes, I confirmed the no-shipments, zero-stock with the store manager. 5 days and counting with no stock so far, when the sale started there was maybe 12-24 bottles for 128,000 residents in the city.

Any and all transmission of either 2FA or login links over either SMS or eMail should be made completely illegal. Neither distribution method is secure to any degree.
Similarly, login confirmation or pseudo-2FA through a single vendor-owned app should also be made illegal. People should be able to use the 2FA app of their choice to provide one-time codes.
For the second paragraph, an ideal example would be Telus, a Canadian ISP. The only way to use 2FA is to use THEIR app. Well, what if I don’t want their app on my phone? Too bad, so sad, it’s their only way of providing 2FA. They’ve reinvented security, likely with plenty of flaws and pitfalls that wouldn’t exist with a public 2FA service.
