Sounds plausible, I suppose.

we ban AI communities because we’re a vegan instance

Is there some sort of natural enmity between vegans and AI enthusiasts I’m not aware of?

Break the mirrors off.

I should be so fucking lucky.

And your father smelled of elderberries!! ヽ( `д´*)ノ

I’m not sure. I’d guess when they make the slim version the main branch (and thus no more prod_slim beta), Steam will just remove the beta and install the main version.

Until they push this update to remove the larger build entirely, you can select the slim version by going to the game properties and checking the beta builds. It’s the “slim_prod” option.

In your Steam game menu, you should also see “[slim_prod]” next to the Helldivers listing.

AI agents are remarkably bad at “self-awareness”

Because today’s “AIs” are glorified T9 predictive text machines. They don’t have “self-awareness.”

I should learn a selection of insults from some Native American languages so I can pull those out around dickheads who tell people to, “Speak American!”

This isn’t acceptable in the least. The very fact it seems so innocuous right now is to get opinions like yours circulating to make everyone feel comfortable with it. People have got to stop thinking in the short-term when it comes to privacy.

“Oh, it’s just one more data point, what can it hurt now? All you have to do is type a number in a box. You don’t even have to provide any documentation to prove you aren’t lying!”

Their “age verification” method is useless for accomplishing any actual age verification. So why is it still being pushed? Because the groundwork is being laid now for the actual surveillance to be implemented later.

You’d think if you were sending a followup message to correct a typo, you’d take a second or two to make sure you had it right before you hit send. But I guess that would make too much sense.

The foods that damage our teeth the most are things that are really sugary and/or highly acidic. Things like sodas, sweets, alcohols, for a few examples. We already consider stuff like that unhealthy without considering what they do to our teeth. And unless you’re consuming stuff like that excessively, they’re not likely to cause you too many problems as long as you’re practicing good dental hygiene.

Think that speaks more to the quality of the food.

There’s a fetish for this somewhere.

I feel like a speculum is still going to be needed even with the best of aims.

Oof. I ran this for a bit but ended up removing it because, in addition to searching for missing media, it also kept trying to “upgrade” my existing media. Not sure what quality reference it was using though - I sync Radarr/Sonarr with the Trash Guides and most of what Huntarr pulled for download got stalled at import because it had a lower quality score than what was already in my library.

Kinda wonder what Nicki thinks would happen to her brown ass if “their side” won.

I self-host a few services that are shared with others off of that NAS. They aren’t paying stakeholders, but I suppose I do technically have some.

I don’t even have anything plugged into mine lately. It just sits there in case I need another port for something.

Please ignore my dust. I’m a terrible housekeeper.

My roommate got one left on his windshield that was printed to look like a folded $50 bill on one side, and then said, “You park like an asshole,” when you flipped it over. To be fair to the person who left it, my roommate totally did park like an asshole that day, so I thought it was hilarious.
