id rather be using whatsapp, honestly
it’s not good either, obviously, but messenger still collects a buttload more data
(and iirc whatsapp encrypts both group chats and DMs, on messenger it’s only DMs)

you have it backwards, israel is an american puppet; not the other way around
still works tho, why would america restrain its imperialist genocidal outpost? creating chaos in the Middle East is its raison d’être
imagine being the person forced to use FB messenger because your friends are on it and won’t bother installing anything else
i am that person 😖
and neither is Greenland, iirc
i think it is, look at the knobs on the top of the washing machine. they’re nonsensical
I think people in the replies acting fake surprised are missing the point.
it is important news, because many people see LLMs as black boxes of superintelligence (almost as if that’s what they’re being marketed as!)
you and i know that’s bullshit, but the students asking chatgpt to solve their math homework instead of using wolfram alpha doesn’t.
so yes, it is important to demonstrate that this “artificial intelligence” is so much not an intelligence that it’s getting beaten by 1979 software on 1977 hardware
they already do! (sorta)

Tell me you are a monolinugal English speaker without telling me.
tu penses mon nom d’utilisatrice vient de quelle langue?
of course not every language has the same grammatical genders, but if you already speak a language with them, you don’t have to learn the concept, you already get it
when learning Spanish in school, grammatical gender was really not an issue, cause i already speak french (to be fair, french and spanish will often gender the same words the same way, which greatly helps ofc)
to me, it was much harder to grasp the distinction between ser and estar, for example. two fundamental verbs that, in french, get translated to the same thing
i mean, no, the reason english is the default language of the world is due to (british, and then american) imperialism
french and latin were once the default languages of europe for the same reason
and how hard a language is to learn is kinda irrelevant, because it will always depend on what language(s) you already know. for monolingual speakers of english, it’s hard to learn a language with grammatical genders, but if you already speak a language with those, that won’t be a problem
its funny how people hold that word as a super complicated and incomprehensible word even tho it’s perfectly regular and follows basic rules
it feels pertinent to say that no, they didn’t come for the socialists first
they came for disabled people first
did you know? girls love oxygen!
what they really believe: guns are necessary for people to fight back against the government murder minorities
flash storage too! idk the specifics but I think flash storage has a lifespan of around 15 years
in practice; go backup old flash drives and game cartridges (ex: DS and 3DS cards)
iirc the only non-white group who voted more for trump than harris were Latino men, but even that was by a slight margin
white men and women, meanwhile, voted overwhelmingly for trump
anything to distract from the fact that the only group who overwhelmingly support trump are whites lol
no, I don’t think we need &
more often than we need 1
and for accents, the canadian french qwerty keyboard handles them just fine; é
(by far the most common accented letter) has its own key, all the other use dedicated dead keys. it works well!
and you can write accented uppercase letters using the CF qwerty, on azerty you need a combination with AltGr for that (because using just shift types the numbers…)
i remember, the food court at our local mart had a lovely mural of a painted garden, it was really cute
they’ve since then removed it to put a generic wood texture wallpaper and 3 TVs that blast right-wing propaganda and ads all day
oh god what horror that layout is
you need shift to type numbers???
i’ll be honest, considering the extreme complicity from the israeli public to the genocide their government is doing, i strongly doubt this
