  • Imagine if Kamala Harris was openly being this close with another man. The right wouldn't shut up about her cheating on her husband and they would make even more memes about her sucking dick.

  • Okay. For elections pre-Trump you might twist my arm into half-assedly agreeing with you.

    But if you think that now you're one of:

    1. A genuine idiot
    2. MAGA cultist
    3. Russian Propagandist

  • For the first time in my life, I have hit my deductible AND reached my out-of-pocket maximum. I now have three months of actual free healthcare, which is unheard of in the US. What should I get done?

    Jump

  • My wife is there.

    She's gotten two knee replacements this year and is scheduled for a hip replacement before the end of the year. And last night I reminded her she's been meaning to go to a dermatologist.

  • Assuming this isn't just shopped, which it probably is... As a guy that bakes cakes from scratch a couple of times a year, two things:

    1. Props to whomever got that pattern into the cake, that couldn't have been easy. Imagine: There's a toroidal swastika in that cake.
    2. That's one ugly-ass cake for having spent so much time on it.

  • Oh the humanity!

  • I commend you, but it's a losing battle.

  • It really grates on me when I read "sike".

  • What’s your “I can’t believe other people don’t do this” hack?

    Jump

  • When I was younger and drank more I did this, and it sure helps with hard liquor.

    When you're drunk that big glass of water can be hard to get down, but do it anyway.

  • Right? Look at Mr. Moneybags over here that can afford toothpaste. I use hand soap as toothpaste and I'm glad to have it.

  • Are they.... you know...?

  • Looking for new search engine

    Jump

  • Try it, they give you 100 free searches.

    I've been using it for months and really like it. It's so refreshing to get clean and useful search results.

  • Navy officer lost job for secretly installing internet on warship to check social media

    Jump

  • Supposedly she was an information and IT specialist... Setting the thing up to not broadcast its SSID should have been one of the first things they thought of. But probably she didn't know it could be done, which again speaks to her overall incompetence.

  • AOC launches effort to impeach Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito

    Jump

  • This election is so seriously fucked up that Dick Chaney and AOC are voting for the same candidate.

    Weird timeline we're in.

  • Michigan judge loses docket after she's recorded insulting gay people and Black people

    Jump

  • She actually said that. What the hell.

    And her dad and brother are judges. Who probably all argue that there is no systemic racism in the courts.

  • OpenAI Pleads That It Can’t Make Money Without Using Copyrighted Materials for Free

    Jump

  • The process of training the model is arguably similar to a human learning, and if the model just sat on a server doing nothing but knowing, there'd be no problem. Taking that knowledge and selling it to the public en mass is the issue.

    This is precisely what copyrights and patents are here to safeguard. Is there already a book like A Song of Ice and Fire? Write something else, maybe better! There's already a patent for an idea you have? Change and improve upon it and get your own patent!

    You see, copyrights and patents are supposed to spur creativity, not hinder it. OpenAI should improve upon its system so that it actually thinks and is creative itself rather than regurgitating copyrighted materials, themes and ideas. Then they wouldn't have this problem.

    OpenAI wants literally all of human knowledge and creativity for free so that they can sell it back to you. And you're okay-ish with it?

    Jump

  • Or a few years early...

    This is essentially what OpenAI is asking for. To profit off of the work of unpaid labor.

  • There are deniers. They're wrong.

    Jump

  • These companies absolutely do use your microphone to listen.

    My wife and I have tested this and you can too.

    Have a conversation near your phones about purchasing something offbeat. We used a kitchen garbage disposal in our test. Talk about them for a few minutes, about needing to buy one, different brands, etc.

    Almost immediately you'll be served garbage disposal adds.

  • Stephen King gives blunt three-word response after discovering Florida banned 23 of his books in schools

    Jump

  • "The man in black fled across the desert, and the gunslinger followed."

    Love that book. There's some sad sex in it and a very unsympathetic preacher, but overall pretty tame by King standards.

  • Me: Man, that's a pretty nice line of printers you have.

    Brother: Thanks!

    Me: Hey, you don't happen to know where I can get a nice sewing machine do you?

    Brother: You're not going to believe this...
