I’d assume that played a huge role in him choosing to step down.

How long do you think your rights in prison are going to last once they’ve eliminated your most basic rights outside of prison?

These are some of the most inaccessible seeming accessibility features I’ve ever seen. They updated visionOS for blind people, for fucks sake. And who decided to put the word “nutrition” in an accessibility feature that has nothing to do with nutrition? Braille on a smartphone screen? A magnifier app with normal sized UI controls? Who is in charge of this?

Depardieu [argued] that he did not consider placing a hand on a person’s buttocks sexual assault and that some women were too easily shocked.

[The judge said] “He does not seem to have grasped either the concept of consent or the … consequences of his behaviour…”

The takeaway for men: yes, you need consent before grabbing someone’s ass.

I really hope civilization survives for the next five years because I’d love to be able to eat gluten again, omg!

Just don’t let ICE find out about your username. Pretty sure that will fall under their “porn ban” excuse for disappearing people to El Salvador soon.

The US is heading surprisingly rapidly towards that point. It was a tragedy when it happened in the Middle East. Unfortunately many of the right wing people in the US don’t understand this yet.

Don’t give them any ideas.

Can you spell out for me what you’re talking about? I don’t understand.

Under the bill, content would be considered obscene if it appeals to prurient interests in nudity

And since they’ve already taken away due process, they’re basically paving the way to send anyone who has a body they don’t like to a death camp. I don’t think it’s hyperbole anymore to say that that US is fucked.

Project 2025, aka New Gilead in full swing.

You think that’s exclusive to the UK? I live in rural Asia and police patrol the countryside with drones.

I will literally starve to death living in the wilderness before someone puts a Neuralink in me. If you forced me to choose, I would choose starvation.

Meanwhile my social accounts get shut down within minutes of me posting PG beach photos that the algorithm claims are promoting sexual activity. I know I’m sexy, but tech platforms aren’t facing challenges, this is intentional.

Honest question: is Ye just mentally ill, or is Russia manipulating him?

Even as a white male US born citizen, I also don’t see myself flying back any time soon. I’m nobody, but I’ve run my mouth against fascists online enough that I’ve probably triggered some flag in the system.

I support this state law, though I think it’s unlikely to directly have the intended effect and will probably just prevent people from confessing instead.

I don’t think people with a guilty conscience should have a way to clear their conscience other than behaving better and making up for their wrongs with better behavior.

At the same time, I get why the Catholic Church opposes the state law. And it’s one of the biggest reasons I’m against all Christian religions, Evangelicalism included: they’re more concerned about power than about people. And yeah, I think the Catholic Church’s stance on this issue is fucked up, just like most Christian stances on political moral issues are fucked up these days.

But the timing of this article, and the right wing motivations against Catholicism make it clear that this article is also more concerned about power than about people. The state law doesn’t stop child abuse or result in any more reporting of child abuse.

The way I see it, this article is actually right wing propaganda targeting the Pope because he supports Europe and Ukraine against Russia.

How could they possibly have known?! /s

Just when I think dumb can’t get any dumber

So you’re describing a reasoning model, which is 1) still based on statistical token sequences and 2) trained on another tool (logic and discourse) that it uses to arrive at the truth. It’s a very fallible process. I can’t even begin to count the number of times that a reasoning model has given me a completely false conclusion. Research shows that even the most advanced LLMs are giving incorrect answers as much as 40% of the time IIRC. Which reminds me of a really common way that humans arrive at truth, which LLMs aren’t capable of:

Fuck around and find out. Also known as the scientific method.
