OpenAI says they aren't liable for the suicide of a user their chat bot urged to kill himself because suicide is a violation of the TOS
Additionally, OpenAI argues its not liable because Raine, by using ChatGPT for self-harm, broke its terms of service

I cannot have three cats

Partner is bringing home a bottle and kitten milk replacer; found the guy shrieking his head off in our firewood shelter. I cannot find hide nor hair of siblings or his mom.

I was gonna say Harvey Darger but I feel like that's too mainstream nowadays. I'm going to find my own smelly recluse in a basement apartment making weirdass art while working as a janitor and give him a $500 million budget.
If you were a despotic president, what movie would you force Hollywood to make? I want to see Quentin's Star Trek movie or maybe Kill Bill Vol 3.

Matt has my vote for Dictator for Life.
I've honestly always thought that Hollywood should take, say, a 5-year moratorium on sequels/remakes/reboots. Like, say, a 1-year grace period to finish up what they've got and then, bam, ONLY ORIGINAL STUFF. After 5 years, they can go back to whatever, but hey they'd have _new_ crap to regurgitate.

Well damn, I guess this might need to be our next book club game, the game that Valve rejected
Our upcoming game HORSES was preemptively banned from Steam, with no path to appeal. The game will still launch next week on December 2nd and will be available on EGS, GOG, Humble, and Itch for $4.99. Here is a detailed FAQ covering what happened: horses.wtf/BannedFromSt...

Hello network. This is real shit. I’m looking for transgender, nonbinary, or gender nonconforming front and back end web designers for a project to help trans people get housing in NJ. This is a paid opportunity.

Milk plates are the future. We can't be milk plate luddites. Plus it's a great way to boost demand for fresh milk!
im glad america is gearing its entire economy toward the infrastructure project of putting big plates of milk out in the sun

Adding these to the list of things I’ve learned today… the RCKI’s were singing in the sunshine as they always do when they first show up... That’s always so badass to hear… and… I can whistle through the gap in my teeth well enough to piss one off with my RCKI impersonation. 👀😂🪶
