Uh, yes? 'Blue and green reign supreme' as the saying that I just made up goes

HonoraryMancunian ,

I assume it's because the GR has a ratio of the longer side to both sides summed. Although I can't explain it further than that lol

Can we all agree that whatever version of predictive text we have nowadays is crap, and has been for a long time?

I'm sick of random capitalisations mid sentence. I'm sick of common words being replaced by less common ones or even downright nonsense. I'm sick of it taking three attempts to successfully get the word I want. I swear it's been like this for five years or more. Can we have a better version yet, or at least the old one back?

HonoraryMancunian OP ,

For real. If someone could SCTUALLY (oh look another issue. It fails to work out the word if the first letter is wrong far too often) *ACTUALLY answer this question I'd be halfway happy

HonoraryMancunian OP ,

Oh what. Is that really why? Ffs this is one of the things I'll happily consent to

HonoraryMancunian OP ,

HonoraryMancunian OP ,

I don't think the above poster has ever typed ConocoPhillips (hey it's on my autocorrect too)

HonoraryMancunian OP ,

Damn that's egregious

I can't get behind a government giving the death penalty to anybody for any reason

  • Revealed: a California city is training AI to spot homeless encampments (www.theguardian.com)

    Last July, San Jose issued an open invitation to technology companies to mount cameras on a municipal vehicle that began periodically driving through the city’s district 10 in December, collecting footage of the streets and public spaces.

    Ask them if they'd be OK with never closing a cubicle door

    Join an ever-growing community of Christ followers who are devoted to being a Light in neighborhoods through praying for, caring for, sharing the gospel with, and discipling homes.

    Holy shit

    Oh wait it says discipling not disciplining. Not quite as holy shit worthy.

    UK Trial: Pornhub's Chatbot Halts Millions from Accessing Child Abuse Content (www.wired.com)

    A trial program conducted by Pornhub in collaboration with UK-based child protection organizations aimed to deter users from searching for child abuse material (CSAM) on its website. Whenever CSAM-related terms were searched, a warning message and a chatbot appeared, directing users to support services. The trial reported a...

    Another question is, how will the authorities know the difference? An actual csam-haver can just claim it's AI

    Looks like the Boring Company's Las Vegas tunnels are going about as well as you'd expect from an Elon project...

    "The muck pooling in the tunnel at the north end of the Las Vegas Strip had the consistency of a milkshake and, in some places, sat at least two feet deep. ... At first, it merely felt damp. But in addition to the water, sand and silt—the natural byproducts of any dig—the workers understood that it was full of chemicals known as accelerants.

    "The accelerants cure the grout that seals the tunnel’s concrete supports, helping the grout set properly and protecting the work against cracks and other deterioration. They also seriously burn exposed human skin. At the Encore dig site, such burns became almost routine, workers there told Nevada’s Occupational Safety and Health Administration. An investigation by the state OSHA, which Bloomberg Businessweek has obtained via a freedom of information request, describes workers being scarred permanently on their arms and legs. According to the investigation, at least one employee took a direct hit to the face. In an interview with Businessweek, one of the tunnel workers recalls the feeling of exposure to the chemicals: “You’d be like, ‘Why am I on fire?’”"

    I remember on reddit I started, but never put in the effort to grow, a sub called Comic Requests. Basically a place for creative non-artists and idea-less artists to meet and collaborate to produce comic strips. Maybe someone who isn't me could finally make that happen here.
