Hey, y’all! Just another random, loudmouthed, opinionated, Southern-fried nerdy American living abroad.

This is my lemmy account because I got sick of how unstable kbin dot social was.

  • I’ll tell you the same thing I told the other person complaining: the other source has a paywall/signup wall. I picked the one that didn’t ask for people’s email address to read it. There is a link in the article to the other source if you want to give away your email address to read it.

  • The other source, the Daily Telegraph, has a paywall/sign up requirement. There’s a link in the article if you prefer that.

  • I’m so tired of AI bullshit getting shoved into everything.

  • Remember this the next time the cops tell someone they can’t do anything about a stalker or angry ex threatening to kill them until they actually act. They can do something. They choose not to.

  • My eyes started rolling the second the writer said “the horrifying news.”

  • And yet he not only wished it, but CAUSED it, for thousands upon thousands in the name of shareholder profits.

  • OP, aka ME, just copied the first three paragraphs from the story, which is what I ALWAYS do. 🤨

  • The way this article seems to go out of its way to humanize this guy before remembering to mention the ways this guy has hurt so many people by chasing profit at the expensive of people’s lives is kind of wild.

  • That’s the other big reason I’m hesitant - different tests can give totally different results, so who knows what’s “right”?

  • I’ve got to admit, I’ve wanted to do one of those tests just because my family is such a mix of “lol we don’t know.” Like, no really, what IS my maternal grandma? She does not look like the rest of her family and had a different family name from her siblings. And ok really, where DID my paternal great-grandmother who lied about her race so she could marry my great-grandfather back when “miscegenation” was illegal, come from? And WAS that great-grandpa biracial himself?

    There’s a reason I call myself an ethnic Rorschach test, and I’d love to know why it is I am. But the rest of my family is against the idea of finding out because “it doesn’t matter” plus who knows how just data might be used one day.

  • I read the headline and went, “…I mean, what were you expecting?”

  • If real women don’t like you, that’s a You issue. Make yourself a better person that other people - aka women - want to be around.

  • Because dude has been a nuisance in three damn countries now. I live in Osaka, and so many of us foreigners here completely hate that effer because he’s making us look bad. He was all over the news here because of the way he was acting.

  • You’ve completely lost me now. What point are you trying to make, exactly?

  • No, I’m not. I’m saying the game is good but occasionally has clunky dialogue. A lot of things have a line or two that’s clunky.

  • I’m a die-hard Dragon Age fan, and yeah, there are times when the dialogue is pretty cringey and has all the subtlety of a brick to the face. But I’m really liking the game so far.

  • That’s on the original source. The links were in the original when I copied the text from the article.

  • You can’t even say he knows his audience because not that many people were actually laughing. Dude is so unfunny he couldn’t even get a Trump crowd up laugh at racist jokes.

  • Character.ai Faces Lawsuit After Teen’s Suicide

  • The chatbot was actually pretty irresponsible about a lot of things, looks like. As in, it doesn’t respond the right way to mentions of suicide and tries to convince the person using it that it’s a real person.

    This guy made an account to try it out for himself, and yikes: https://youtu.be/FExnXCEAe6k?si=oxqoZ02uhsOKbbSF
