I see your OpenAI partnership has resulted in yet another LLM puff piece.

More and more fiction has the American healthcare system, ideals and laws as default. It's one thing when set in the US, but fantasy stuff feels really weird. What do you mean the elf doctor needs to see insurance/payment? It's healthcare not a capitalistic hellscape.

@moderation.bsky.app labelling trans women's accounts as Spam to hide them continues.

Sorry this is happening to you.

But Labour has continued Austerity, with £2bn cuts to disability support that they won't say where it's going to impact.

It's not losing faith in democracy as being outright lied, unless the GE CHANGE campaign meant competently attacking people unlike the Tories... It's lost faith in Labour

And then you can't even trust the AI Off switch, because the company suddenly added it and turned it on by default.

And even if it's not "Enabled to help", is it still sending everything you do back to the company as telemetry?

Any AI stuff means the product can't be trusted.

Labour attacked the disabled community, trans community, immigrant community, elderly and more.

It's not economics driving people away, it's being attacked by Labour at every turn.

I'm not voting for a party that wants my existence, or anyone elses, to end.

Yeah, and it took some time for it to click that Director of Public Prosecutions meant he would've spent a lot time as a HR Lawyer arguing for the gov, and against human rights.

Which lines up with his attacks on minorities ever since the GE.

Why are you saying bathroom? Are the terfs/gov trying to stop me having a shower at home too?

Labour is trying to wipe us out now, Reform want to wipe us out less politely.
Labour is attacking minorities, Reform will attack minorities louder.
Labour removed disability support (see PIP/LCWRA changes), reform wants to do the same.

They are the same, just one is slightly politer...slightly.

Someone described Starmer's ascendancy like waiting 5 hours in the cold and the dark for a bus, and when it arrives it drives right past you. They hijacked the place reserved for reversing the Tories damage and served up more Tory.

It's a competent film, but felt like a set of improvs where no-one wanted to be the straight man in any scene so it all just fell flat.
Pretty much anyone else but Feig in charge could've made it work.

The two that were elected to make things better but instead made things worse almost instantly.
They are actively attacking trans people, disabled people, immigrants, elderly and (until recently) poor kids.

They keep saying they aren't reform, then saying and making racist/phobic shit into policy.

Due to the puritanical bent of these AI companies if you add any swear word to your search it will also not use the "AI".

Or just switch to DDG and disable it.

True, and the current gov are fash so they must be rubbing their hands with glee at being able to ban people from society at the press of a key.
I'm de-USing everything I can to help others do the same so that at least personal stuff won't stop dead if/when UK gov gets the US to ban people.

Palantir is a US company, and the US has been blacklisting EU lawmakers and ICC members from using anything US connected, which has greatly impacted their ability to do anything.
So what happens to your NHS record when Palantir is told to blacklist you?
