Does that mean I will have more choice in which surveillance agency I want to be spied by?

I will never go on a second date for the life of me.

I have had enough of these dates costing a kidney every time.

Shucks, I thought the blood coming out would magically irrigate every bank account and solve all unfairness.

From the French Wikipédia:

The existence of marshmallow paste is documented as early as 1779 in a letter from the Marquis de Sade, imprisoned in the dungeon of Vincennes, to his wife, where he says, “Another loaf of marshmallow paste, please.”

It’s funny to see marshmallow associated with Sade, who was imprisoned multiple times for… sadism.

Four months after his wedding, Sade was accused of blasphemy and incitement to sacrilege, which were capital offenses.[43] He had rented a property in Paris which he used for sexual encounters. On 18 October 1763, Sade hired a prostitute named Jeanne Testard. Testard stated to the police that Sade had locked her in a bedroom before asking whether she believed in God. When she said that she did, Sade said there was no God and shouted obscenities concerning Jesus and the Virgin Mary. Sade then masturbated with a chalice and crucifix while shouting obscenities and blasphemies. He asked her to beat him with a cane and an iron scourge which had been heated by fire, but she refused. Sade then threatened her with pistols and a sword, telling her he would kill her if she did not trample on a crucifix and exclaim obscene blasphemies. She reluctantly complied. She spent the night with Sade, who read her irreligious poetry. He asked her for sodomy (another capital offense) but she refused. The following morning, Testard reported Sade to the authorities. On 29 October, following a police investigation, Sade was arrested on the personal orders of the king and jailed in Vincennes prison.

It will keep happening. LLMs are the perfect tools for those huge meat grinding consulting companies. Their industry is all about looking good, not factual quality, just like LLMs.

Not sure which is which, it seems to be applicable to both.

If it’s like GDPR, it applies to the citizens currently residing in the country, the location of the company or servers do not matter. Now if Imgur doesn’t have anyone there, no business happening and the website is already blocked, I don’t think they have much leverage.

The imagination looks way more colorful than the social interaction.

“Jared, you can’t talk to your manager like that.”

This is the new cat gpt with haptic feedback when you code like shit.

There’s no sizable USA conservative group who think Charlie Kirk was far right? It seems there’s quite a gap between socially liberal and Charlie Kirk.

On MMOs, trying not to sound like a kid, even though I was a kid, so I could join groups of cool people and guilds. Learned a lot of American lingo on Reddit.

I have been playing acoustic guitar since childhood. I like when I listen to a piece that marvels me, then I work on it a few minutes every day for months, and eventually I start to render part of it good enough that I can find the same pleasure as listening but from the other side. One of my current study subject is Prelude n⁰1 by Heitor Villa-Lobos. https://youtu.be/Pmry5uquwDI

Isn’t the phone less private than an encrypted app?

Yeah, that’s the one I am fearing, the enshitification of Whatsapp, I think it already happened in some countries.

What if the platform you use with your relatives suddenly requires this?

As of 7 September 2025, there are 7,052,247 articles in the English Wikipedia containing over 4.9 billion words (giving a mean of about 706 words per article). The total number of pages is 63,983,130. Articles make up 11.02 percent of all pages on Wikipedia. As of 16 October 2024, the size of the current version including all articles compressed is about 24.05 GB without media. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Size_of_Wikipedia

The following graphic illustrates how large the English Wikipedia might be if the articles (without images and other multimedia content) were to be printed and bound in book form with a format similar to Encyclopædia Britannica. Each volume is assumed to be 25 cm (9.8 in) tall, 5 cm (2.0 in) thick, and containing 1,600,000 words or 8,000,000 characters. The size of this illustration is based upon the live article count manually adjusted by the average word count on an irregular basis on a user subpage of the graphic’s creator Tompw. The growth rate is approximately one full volume every three days if the increase in average article size isn’t accounted for over time. The print volumes as shown in the illustration would take up just over 9.34 m3 (330 cu ft) in total volume.

Good point

Does this work? Sound is hard to stop, it goes through solid matter.
