Cats love tuna. Why? Basically got a lot of the amino acids that taste good to them, just coincidence.

I dunno where the OP lives but in my part of the US I only get carded at the one store that cards literally everyone as a matter of policy, regardless of how obviously old they are. Other than that, I’m under 40 and I can probably count on

…because most dogs just will eat bugs on their own, no outside influence necessary? I’m not sure what point you’re trying to make.

That’s already existed many times throughout history. For most of human history, in fact. Those with the rights will simply continue to narrow who qualifies for rights until only a small ruling class has any.

They’d likely be held culpable and prosecuted. People have encouraged others to commit crimes before and they have been convicted for it. It’s not new. What’s new is a company releasing a product that does the same and then claiming they ca

That’s true, but most people will still miss all those kinds of shots. If you can take the chance and want to, do it. I just recommend having a backup plan.

Of everything wrong with Windows 11 I’m most perved that I can’t have a vertical taskbar. Seriously? Something so simple that existed in Windows 10 and we can’t have it in Windows 11?

Stardew Valley is a very noteworthy achievement, but it’s not the kind of success anyone should expect to simply replicate. Go for it, but most will not achieve a similar outcome.

Culpability is not a binary thing, it’s a scale. A small number of people are far and away the most culpable for much of the evil in the world, and they know it (and don’t care).

Having no art is better than that art. Almost any mildly relevant stock image would have been better if having an image was that desirable.

At a public park I think you have no more right to keep it secret than someone else has to talk about it to others.

Well, in this case it is. Regardless the analogy is beside the point because this problem has a technical solution: Bluesky could disallow posts from being embedded per the author’s request. Also, does that message reflect the author’s pref

It’s public or it’s not public.

“Please don’t show people my public post” is an absurd request to make. Why can the post even be embedded at all in this case? If Gizmodo was forced to screenshot it to circumvent that you might have a point.

It’s a request, and requests may be denied or ignored. If they cared, they wouldn’t post publicly or the service would not allow that message to embedded. An enforceable request is called a “demand”, and unless you’re actually capable of en

I hadn’t realized the meaning of the word “drop” changed completely, hence my confusion.

If LLMs are that capable, then why are AI companies selling access to them instead of using them to conquer markets?

People who have learned how to learn can learn more. People who only used AI never learned how to learn.
