I don’t care much for Pizza Cake one way or the other, but damn this one really sucks.

They could be misremembering, but not too hard. From her Wikipedia page:

Crockett has faced criticism for voting in support of funding military aid to Israel and for her trip to Israel with the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) and the Israel Defense Forces during her first term.

Being anti trans is being a fascist

I mean, no? Fascism by its nature resists definition, but no serious attempt at the task I’ve seen is that broad.

That’s why it’s being pushed as hard as it is, but there’s a reason it’s women’s sports and not, say, being around kids or any other conservative hysteria. In the absence of competing information, it’s easy for a reasonable person to see the argument/dogwhistle and think “yeah sure they have a point there,” and frankly the left’s generally poor communication on this topic doesn’t help. For clarity, by that last bit I mean “even considering the argument is automatically considered transphobia and gets condemnation rather than a rebuttal, which leaves the debate with only one side arguing their case.” Questioning the intentions of anyone who brings it up is also counterproductive; people can have opinions on things they don’t strongly care about.

The British accent doesn’t play nice with my ears what did the other guy say and what does the Britain first guy respond with?

Good one.

May I rest in peace.

Okay pedantry incoming.

Yes and no. The problem here is that “colonize” refers to both economic colonialism (India, Malaysia+Singapore, etc) where you just extract resources from a region and settler colonialism (America, Australia, etc) where you actually export people to the colonized region in large numbers. Given the focus on actual British people, the joke works better with the latter, but there’s actually a lot fewer of those. Also, British settler colonies were usually so thoroughly colonized that there are barely any natives left to complain about it (not that there are none, but they’re an overwhelming minority in most cases). Ireland is thus unique as a country that Britain subjected to settler colonialism but where there’s a clear majority of natives who can quip about it. The only other example I can think of is New Zealand, and even then it only kind of works.

Conclusion: Ireland was the best country for that joke by far.

The parent comment asserted without evidence that “posts like this are designed to split the left.” Then Štěpán responded by doubting that the unity the parent comment implied exists in the first place. This is all a dispute of facts; actions can then be taken based on those facts but so far you’re assuming an argument “don’t vote for the Democrats” that nobody made. Or, in other words, there are conclusions you can make from “the centrists actually hate us and everything we stand for” other than “don’t vote in the election.”

If you have a point make it I’m not going to read your mind.

Like I said to the other person, if you have evidence to the contrary I’d love to see it.

This goes to c\actuallyinfuriating.

This isn’t meant as a defense of OpenAI, just giving context because OP doesn’t. For what it’s worth I believe training AI on chat logs should be opt in rather than opt out, so OpenAI is clearly at fault here.

That might actually hurt shareholders, though.

That’s definitely… an interpretation of things.

For the curious, the problem seems to be that the AI the mathematicians in question were using used their chat logs as training data, and therefore took the same approach they did when confronted with a similar problem.

because there is constantly attacks.

Source? AFAIK Hamas mostly does rocket attacks, not boots on the ground operations.

They looked into the warnings and it seemed very unlikely they would fly over the wall or escalate beyond small hit and run rocket attacks.

I mean, it’s part of the IDF’s job to respond to small hit and run attacks, being the Israeli Defense Force. Instead they were in the West Bank terrorizing Palestinians. Even if they underestimated the scale of the attack, they were warned by multiple sources that there would be a major attack soon.

That archive link isn’t working.

Hamas did something terrible to break the unwinnable situation Israel and its well funded allies had created.

Not quite. Hamas decided to attack Israel, which is well within their right to do and which did help their cause. They also decided to kill a bunch of civilians along the way, which they had no right to do and which actually hurt their cause. This is something that gets misunderstood during discourse about October 7th: October 7th wasn’t just about killing a bunch of people; Hamas seems to have had clear strategic goals and they committed atrocities that didn’t help those strategic goals. What I want to say is: October 7th wasn’t a terrible but necessary act; it included both terrible acts and necessary acts and for the most part there’s little overlap between the two.

If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it’s something that’s widely accepted, give it an arrow down.
