Der Wohlstand wird am Schnitzel verteidigt.

Immerhin ist die Union bei Chatkontrolle doch nicht umgefallen wie es scheint, dafür jetzt wieder populistische Politiksimulation von Friedrichs Trümmertruppe um das Profil zu schärfen. :/

Wait, I'm sorry: WHAT tf is happening? Is Bsky Trust & Safety actually saying that they don't provide input on the 3rd party "AI" that is the 1st tier of all image & video moderation on this website? Am I actually reading that right? Because that seems like a completely bananas way to run a railroad

Bro could use Occam's piece of dry baguette to cut those weak-ass assumptions.

people who want you to believe they can predict events a century out but can't predict Donald Trump fucking up.

We buried my grandmother this weekend and I would say talk to anyone in your life you’ll be responsible for when they die about what they want the end of their life and their memorial and burial to be like. My dad took extremely good care of his mom and it made everything a lot easier.

Has anyone checked to see if things get even better here in Omelas if we chuck another kid or two in the oubliette

chat, is saying you want to destroy a computer program the same as genocide?

"read the rules"
"no politics in the fun thread"
"use the search function"

just thinking about the first time i met Dr. Goodall. I was at the Dallas Zoo and ran into her out of the blue. I told her I was a huge fan and I'll never forget her response: "I am not Jane Goodall. I'm not even a woman. Please stop shaking my hand."
