My hate for capitalism is bigger then your hate for capitalism! ™

I think a field sobriety test usually involves more then one test, at least if you can communicate a reasonable reason why you may fail one.

I believe they may also just look at your behaviour during the interaction.

“Couldn’t walk a straight line but mentioned a recent leg surgery”

Vs

“Couldn’t walk a straight line but believed they did, started an argument about it. Failed secondary test while continuing to insist they passed the first test”

Also autistic : Rules are a construct we ourself shape and create in order to archive the illusion of control over the raw anarchy that is the reality of free will and sovereign thought.

Provides more opportunities to loot the seas.

Does it feed more beasts then using github in general does?

On the one (windows) machine i actively use powershell i click the pinned start menu icon.

Windows has fucked my flow before by co opting my shortcuts. So this is the most reliable way.

On linux terminal is a shortcut, app launcher is a short cut and searching apps to launch actually works and doesn’t open my browser that operates under a different privacy contract then your os settings.

People have hooked up scripts to automate trade based on celebrities using certain hashtags or other data for years.

A non insignificant portion of people has absolutely hooked up an ai to it. I don’t know any, but i take that bet in a heartbeat.

Some will do it responsibly, as an experiment with money they are prepared to loose.

Ai companies themselves might try this as an internal test, like how atrophic has claude managing a real vending machine (which got manipulated into selling tungsten cubes following customer feedback)

Others have probably completely destroyed their own lives. A few may have lucked out.

If its critical, don’t give it to ai without having a secured backup it can’t touch.

How would op know if there being told to stop contacting them?

I once has a friend who was bipolar suddenly turn incredibly hostile and angry with me.

They insisted “I knew what i had done” but i still wonder what they could possibly have meant with it, i recalled the last communication before that being a mundane but friendly chat. I could not talk to them, they became actually violent.

None of our mutual friends knew what was up, or managed to learn what it is “that i did”.

Now it wouldn’t be uncharacteristic for them to create some strange theories of people they knew being involved with a secret templar society and actively keeping them in the dark, but i don’t know if this was connected to it and i never found a way to talk to them again after that.

DDG is just a custom wrapper for bing and explicitly gives some microsoft trackers a pass.

Sadly enough there is no practical independent search engine that doesn’t try to track you. The best option i know is a self hosted searxng, which still relies on google/bing/others for results but is designed to block all trackers equally without special exemptions.

“Some U.S. automakers have pushed back, arguing that the new design may overstate injury risks and diminish the perceived value of existing safety features such as airbags and seat belts”

nO fAiR, you chanced the perceived value by measuring more accurately.

Same,

Most of my apps are for open source stuff.

Voyager for lemmy, jellyfin, nextcloud, home assistent, Wireguard… even lichess.

Many of the official apps like my bank don’t have ads or price either.

I don’t know how there paying to get their app on the store but there there and there free.

People will buy it alright.

Rich people won’t care and its more profitable to sell to one rich person for 200x the price then to 100 poor people at 1x the price.

How about the part where.

“To get your first year of the post” “For 50c a week” Which is the monthly plan…

Cheapest be damned, what am i even (not) buying? Contractually obligated to keep paying for a full month/year or fined?

There is some truth into this reasoning.

But not like this. Not in this climate, not until ai based tools can actually demonstrate any benefit in aiding an artist instead of trying to replace them with low quality slop.

The best lies are build on a grain of truth and that they speak out about this at all is a big tell to how they would rather move.

But we should acknowledge, npc ai, dynamic ingame weather, the decades old blending tool in Photoshop Technically many things are ai or could benefit and i don’t hear many people discuss where to draw the line exactly.

Personally i’d say, at generated images and text/scrip. But i have been day banned on a no-ai place for mentioning npc ai before.

Can confirm i have also read this somewhere.

Also waiting for the more dedicated nerd to tell us all about the cool thing.

I wish more projects did stuff like this.

It just feels silly and unprofessional while being seriously useful. Exactly my flavour of software, makes the web feel less corporate.

I assume this some kind of philosophical metaphor but as someone who isn’t into random acts of animal cruelty i have to ask for the answer.

Why not help?
