for microsoft, the decision to begin fucking with the user's decisions as much as possible was made sometime in 2004 or 2005, in the discussion leading up to the announcement of 'vista'. The fuckery has been gradually ramping up ever since.
I kinda think anyone in a hot air baloon is automatically lurping. Has anyone lurped in space yet? How far into the sky have lurpers gotten?
did anyone tell him he's been shopping at the sadness store this whole time? someone can't bring that much sadness into the world and not experience it.
This is why I am always weird in interactions - no wondering!
Here’s a handy protocol to determine whether AI could be helpful with your problem or project.
disney's treatment of owl house is a case study in wealth being used to silence artists who challenge the status quo. commissioning a piece of art should never justify censoring it, hiding it, or diminishing its content in any way.
ai can't do this, of course. lack of process is part of why it is so soulless. Its not that it doesn't make mistakes, its that the mistakes don't have meaning.
I love how people keep saying "pick up a pencil", but most of my best art happens when I skip pencil and go straight to pen. Just put ink right on the paper and roll with my mistakes. I make a ton of mistakes because of this but I also make vibes that would be lost if I was careful and meticulous.

On hot peppers I like to leave the pith in, that contains most of the Capsaicin.
pickling. If they're bell or poblano, roasting them and pickling them in oil and/or vinegar (the oil becomes the real treat, include some raw garlic and it ends up being the rudeness). If they're hot peppers add them to a lactofermentation jar or a jar of vinegar pickles to make the whole jar hot.

They're just reminding us that bluesky is not some unique unicorn social media, its corruptable just like all the rest, and eventually it, too, will sink into the quagmire of capitalism, enshittified with crusty terf slime residue, and dried techbro spittle.
He's just got no concept of math or computability. OpenAI has a similar issue at its core, because of the tremendously inefficient way the computation is done, its just an immensely roundabout way of creating a comparison engine. What he does know is sales, and he's sold many on lower standards...
a local hike I like has some owls roosting in it, and when I pass through there at night I make a little vocalization so they know I'm not trying to sneak up on them. today I forgot and one swooped down and clawed my head. Just a light tap, no damage, but it was like "don't forget the noise, bitch"
kombucha has told me the exact same thing
Immortality means trillions of years at a time just floating in space, looking for someone else so you can enjoy their fleeting lifetime, or just being stuck. and in the end, you just have to sit there and watch the stars go out, one by one, over the course of eons. And then the true horror begins.
Text heavy image, lavender background with large minimalistic purple and pink accent florals. Reads: Our Roots Run Deep. This pride, we're honoring the legacy off those who came before us. Who channeled their righteous anger into liberation, who practiced self-care as resistance, and who built networks of care that allowed our community not just to survive, but to bloom.
This Pride, we remember that our roots run deep.
Like the intricate, unseen networks beneath a forest, our connections nourish us and sustain us — helping our community not only survive but grow.
pretty sure reddit atheism only works on religions with an old beard guy on a cloud. Can we mod it to work on an ikea customer assistance chatbot that a guy in a north face polo who's microdosing pure silicon thinks is the daedalus project from deus ex?
He's still a multibillioinaire after this donation. Its a start, but no one can possibly deserve that much money, and while people are starving next to food stores and homeless while houses stand empty around the world, holding wealth beyond any imaginable need is evil beyond any possible argument.
The facebook eula is worse
I can hear a melting iceberg of beauty in your voice, frozen in anxiety. I'll stoke the fire with any precious thing, because I know all that freezerburned wonder will flow from you as it melts, and I know that whatever comes forth from that frozen block will be bright and warm in the cold and dark.

I've been using duel boot with mint and windows, its nice but I liked ubuntu better. there are a couple annoying things but its worlds better than windows. windows is still best for gaming even though it sucks in every other way besides 'having a monopoly on good drivers' so dual boot is kinda key
