I think we underrate that JCO came up in 20th century New York literary circles where everyone said five most devastating insults before breakfast and as one of the last one standing, her competition is guys who get sad if their chatbot isn't sufficiently nice to them.

I think a big factor in the push to adopt LLMs is a group of people who don't like humans and are genuinely overjoyed they no longer need to deal with them and are joyfully trying to spread the good news. It sucks and it's sad - like so much these days.

This is ferocious and empathetic piece. “In every study I have conducted with survivors, the participants whose parents told them “not to drink too much” or “not to use Tinder” were…the least willing to tell their parents about their assaults—and the tips did nothing to keep them safe anyway.”

*LOUD INCORRECT BUZZER SOUND* We are so sorry, that answer is not correct, we would have accepted: lesbian, gay, or t4t.

I find that there are a lot of social slights where any correction is going to feel like a much bigger deal than the slight and I feel like I have to just do nothing (or complain privately to a friend). It's annoying but I think it's true.

I love this but, for no reason I can think of, it feels to me like he should inflict poison counters or have shadow. He currently feels too reputable.

i don't think cis guys realize how much power they can shift in a conversation just by casually telling their friends
"that's fucked up, man" when someone says something

It's pretty funny to see professional political knowers get caught out for doing no research and get, like, huffy about people expecting them to read the news or the Wikipedia pages of their interlocutors.

Quite like the slit on the first, it's also a little more shaped which works for you I think. Brown works with your hair too.

it’s also a shame in that I can truly see the value of teaching a workshop to men on “what do you do if you’ve been called a creep,” except that I somehow don’t think these are the right *people* to teach such a workshop in the slightest

I do kind of enjoy when you have a movie that Says Things and people will log on to complain about a completely incomprehensible read of what they heads it say. Every day a new Voynich manuscript.

I have a unifi setup for a house of 4 people (50~75 clients) and it's pretty good. Somewhat pricey because I also ran Ethernet for the install but the Stuff Works.

O damn, hyena what are the immoral and unethical things making that hard? Maybe we should just listen so we're on the same page. That would be nice, I think. Can you imagine, speaking clearly about immorality? Wild, sounds like a thing voters would like.

Clocking in to post on the Topic of the Day: - You can reject people for not following standards you never state (and that can make sense) but "drinking a drink at the wrong time" is an odd one - Do people not have coffee at work? Everyone I know drinks coffee at work - look up "tacit knowledge" imo
