This is frankly a lazy assessment. AI itself is no more anathema than any other convenience (or plagiarism) tool, it is purely how dissociatively one engages with it that matters.

I’ve used AI as a personal tutor in my chemistry degree and it is an absolute boon for those who cannot afford private tutoring. But one has to actually engage with the content of course, instead of having it do your assignments for you.

And her reaction, posting under her full name btw, is “Haha they’re right”?

Some people deserve to have their identities stolen…

What’s next? Pumping our own gas?! Bagging our own groceries?!?

If you turn off your brain maybe… The plague is very easily treatable with modern antibiotics so its a lacking explanation.

P.S. Its spelled “vial”

The way you phrased it implies strangeness, otherness, or even wrongness.

Windows is great! Unless you value privacy…or RAM… or Bandwidth efficiency…or easy networking… or owning your system

Im running out of empathy for people still using Meta services…

Cambridge Analytica was 10 years ago. Anyone still using Facebook is either an idiot or complicit.

Cats are the best source of soap in DF :)

Theyre wasted on ipads with iPadOS too, maybe even more so than on iOS

Even as someone who despises Apple for their product philosophy, I gotta admit their new chips are baller… Lots of undeserved hate in this thread

“A little glass mixed with something” usually contains roughly a shot of liquor too…

I see what youre getting at, the psychological effect is less severe, but functionally and physiologically the addiction is the same.

Im not judging, I smoke a jay most evenings and admit its an addiction. I dont need to shift the goalposts and claim its not an addiction because its not as sever as a bong…

Ill put it this way; me and a mate switched to Linux as our main drivers at roughly the same time. Both of us have a background in development (him more), I switched to Fedora, he to Cachy.

It is now roughly two years later. He has switched his distro multiple more times. Im still on Fedora because it just works.

Arch based distros are for tinkerers and customisers. Sure it can just work too, but if you dont tinker then theres no real point/ advantage.

Agree on stress being a killer but frankly, this is cope. Alcohol as part of a going to bed ritual is pretty much alcoholism.

Baking evaporates all but trace amounts of alcohol…

Our livers can handle most poisons but they all, alcohol included, take their toll.

You are talking about something else. Show me.

People are morons. Here we have an open source and anonymous framework for age-verifcation (free for anyone to read and check the source code: https://ageverification.dev/) developed by a people’s institution and people lump it into the same boat as some private USA company photocopying your ID.

No? What are you even talking about dude? You’re on a different topic

Leak what? Nobody at any point stores any documents and you would know that if any of you read the OPEN SOURCE framework the EU developed.

The framework is anonymous and open source.

Did you at any point actually read the open-source, anonymous age-verfication framework to be used by the EU?
