I recognize this line but what's the relation to this post? Is it something in the lyrics or something else?

Jarix ,

Reality tv shows took this the farthest its so bad

Jarix ,

Nail, head

Jarix ,

My thoughts exactly when i was watching old seasons of Canadas worst drivers

Jarix ,

Great show, but binging seasons gets rough

Jarix ,

But it does heal. Efficiently be damned. That's not what you care about with mad science. Results are all that matter in mad science, good results or bad results you just have an insatiable desire to see what happens if

Jarix ,

That's a boring cover of a description.

If it exists, there is porn of it

Jarix ,

Just one specific point of contention. A physical object is very different from an object that can infinitely and effortlessly be copied with 0 degradation of that thing.

I think you are making a good argument and but maybe not the best example.

I think there is significance in the difference that needs to be accounted for in any discussion of piracy as theft.

It is currently, and has been for a long time, legal to copy music from the radio or movies and tv shows from a broadcast(but not pay per view, or copys for distrubution) or go to a library and borrow whatever interesting (to you) media they have.

Jarix ,

Can anyone explain how lasers are used to cool? I would prefer ELI18 but i probably need this ELI5

Jarix ,

I love you just a little bit!

He was an NSA analyst that told us about things like 5 Eyes. He commited treason by revealing classified information because he took a stance against what he concluded was overreach and problematic behavior and decided to become a whistleblower about it

He did this knowing the punishment was death, so he found refuge which unfortunately is russia.

At this point its not hard to imagine Putin would want to convert snowden but no one who is claiming Snowden is a shill/russian asset is doing so based on any evidence, its all anecdotal and opinion because Putin would absolutely use him if he could convince him

Jarix ,

Company called vinfast opened up next to tesla in my town. Never heard of them so i checked it out and they have a battery subscription option which was interesting to me, if its like propane tank exchange systems it could be interesting, since its the battery that seems to be the. Biggest concern for people having to replace down the line. Would make a lot of sense for heavy use situations(delivery, sales that travel a lot etc and burn through leases regularily)

The ugly truth behind ChatGPT: AI is guzzling resources at planet-eating rates (www.theguardian.com)

Despite its name, the infrastructure used by the “cloud” accounts for more global greenhouse emissions than commercial flights. In 2018, for instance, the 5bn YouTube hits for the viral song Despacito used the same amount of energy it would take to heat 40,000 US homes annually....

Jarix ,

Rainforests. Like the Amazon that is being deforested obscenely in some areas

Jarix ,

With no stipulations on how or why you're using it.

Will not happen because of things like CSAM

Jarix , (edited )

You miss the point. I'm just saying there will be SOME stipulations on how its used

Edit:

Ideally the internet would be provided with the same indifference as water and electricity. With no stipulations on how or why you're using it.

Should have just been according to everyone:

Ideally the internet would be provided with the same indifference as water and electricity.

Yall telling me some stipulations dont need to be mentioned, using utilites as an example, and yet im also pointing that out and you are trying to say the same thing i am but using my own argument to convince me im wrong.

What a wild place

Jarix ,

Should have said what they meant then instead of being lazy. There will be so many obvious stipulations it was stupid to say no stipulations. Dont understand why so many people insist on avoiding saying what they mean and just then say, you know what i meant.

I say this because if you have ever planned or ran a dnd(or any ttrpg)game you are quickly made aware that whats obvious to most, and even what should be obvious to most will often be the hardest thing to get people to include in how they hear what they are being told.

Its wild how much we expect people to assume, when we have so much evidence, if you care to ask for it/look for it and how often we get caught up with dumb derailments(Case in point... I think we are having a discussion, but wont be surprised if you think we are arguing over pedantry. )

Jarix ,

Okay but there's much less obvious examples. My point still stands

Also see my reply to gh0stcassette

Jarix ,

Okay fair enough and thank you for responding. Im not arguing the pedantry of it, but i do believe its useful and not needless. Meaning i think its worth discussing and debating.

Because if im wrong, then theres no difference between;

Ideally the internet would be provided with the same indifference as water and electricity. With no stipulations on how or why you're using it.

And

Ideally the internet would be provided with the same indifference as water and electricity.

So if im wrong as i understand thats what you mean, i would genuinely like to understand what/why ”with no stupulations on how or why you're using it" it is worth including.

Again if im wrong i literally cant see the difference and will go a long way to help me not respond to these kinds of things in the future and you would have done a service by helping me not derail other conversations. Which i will be very grateful for your help

Jarix ,

No snark. I dont understand the point of adding that second line if its not accurate or indicative of the previous statement. If it isnt clarifying conditions of the previous statement, it just adding confusion. So how does it "reinforce". Like literally how is that a statement that supports the previous one?

Edit. Im starting to think maybe i am on the spectrum...

Jarix ,

First time in a long time I've seen FTFY used literally. Have an upvote

Jarix ,

They aren't an alternative.

From the website you linked's own FAQ

While a sleeve is non-porous and should not allow fluids to escape they have not been tested nor are they recommended to be a form of contraception.

Yes a condom can be worn under a sleeve. Wearing one over a sleeve will not help if you are wearing it as a form of contraception.

Jarix ,

I honestly appreciate that someone else cares enough about that word to upvote me for it. Thank you for being you

Jarix , (edited )

Especially if it's true.

Which if they haven't tested them, which is an easy thing to prove for them, then this should not be recommended by you, or anyone, as a contraceptive.

It's like my ex trying to tell her birthcontrol is working just fine because she took 3 pills at once after forgetting to take it twice in a row even though the manufacturer says if you dont follow the directions you have to start the initial waiting period over again, because "i think they have to say that" (she also used those exact words)

Bad advice is bad advice. Why should anyone ever trust their future and also their health by listening to your advice that directly opposes the manufacturers warning. They are legally liable for their product, you are just some random person potentially ruining peoples lives with your opinions.

I hope they sue you for damages before anyone fucks up their life by being convinced by your bad attitude

Jarix ,

And any audiologist or ENT will back them up and also tell you not to do that and then give you examples of known reasons why they also say dont use them

Jarix ,

How is that in anyway relevant to this discussion about them as a contraceptive device???!?

You might as well be talking about the pull put method of contraceptive with a line like that, which is not helpful

Jarix ,

Jesus fucking christ you are just trolling, and im walking right into it. What waste of time

Jarix ,

That's a great read if you are only trying to film a commercial or promotion and no one is going to eat it. But then it doesnt matter if its non toxic i suppose.

At least i remember a video a long time ago, perhaps on an episode of how its made, that white glue is used to help get the stretchy cheese pull

Jarix ,

If you used white glue, they have other colours though

Jarix ,

Listen sugartits, some of us don't have much money. So if it's not much money we still don't have it

(Mostly i just wanted to point out your username by using it in a comment)

Jarix ,

Neutral is boring? Flaws add as much character to a thing as beauty

Jarix ,

Alternate theory, they heard what they came up with, tried to liscence the use of her voice to avoid a legal fight, hoped she might come around after the fact and now here we are.

Seems possible anyway.

Do we know Sam had any specific and previous interest in Scarlet?

1000+ Firefox for Android extensions now available – Mozilla Add-ons Community Blog (blog.mozilla.org)

The new open ecosystem of extensions on Firefox for Android launched in December with just over 400 extensions. Less than five months later we’ve surpassed 1,000 Firefox for Android extensions. That’s an impressive achievement by this developer community! It’s exciting to see so many developers embrace the opportunity to...

Jarix ,

Hey Everyone, what are your favourite extensions (either already using or that you are excited to be able to use) and also whats a great example of a website that is most noticeably improved for each that extension?

Jarix ,

Thanks for saying! I found an alt you tube app so i rarely use youtube in browser, because its so bad. Maybe i will have to see what its like with those

Jarix ,

Not gonna lie... I'm becoming old and dont really know what people on lemmy say when they talk about self hosting. It seems like it's a much different thing that does stuff in not aware of. Lol

Now wheres the grandkids i dont have to show me how to do this.. like i had to show my grandparents how to use their VCR

Lol

After announcing increased prices, Spotify to Pay Songwriters About $150 Million Less Next Year (www.billboard.com)

When Bloomberg reported that Spotify would be upping the cost of its premium subscription from $9.99 to $10.99, and including 15 hours of audiobooks per month in the U.S., the change sounded like a win for songwriters and publishers. Higher subscription prices typically equate to a bump in U.S. mechanical royalties — but not...

Jarix ,

i paid for the best tier Tidal for a year and it was a worse experience than spotify. Their catalogue is incomplete compared to spotify

I dont feel bad for Anthony Arbaugh. At all.

Literally everything ive seen from him say about what he has experienced so far has been incredibly positive.

We can all call out elon for the shitbag he is, but until this guy who volunteered for this mad science experiment starts singing a different tune, im celebrating the hope for the future that might happen in our lifetimes.

I just buried my grandmother after living with her as one of 2 people to care for her as we sat for 10 years, front row, to her descent into madness and insanity of alzheimers and dementia.

If this tech can be used to fight that monster its worth the risk as it stands at this moment. And i am aware this is some tenuous extreme "success" at the moment im not kidding or deluding myself, but after finding that most of the research on alzehiemers from the last many decades is now known to be junk science based on false claims and they pretty much have to start most of it all over again, this is hopeful.

Helping those who have been handed the worst lot in life gain access to some parts of the human experience they are denied is has come close to make this bearded middle-aged loser cry tears of joy for the first time in a long bloody time

Dont change your opinion of Elon because of this. Compartmentalize it and focus on the good. And fucking demand that Anthony Arbaugh and everyone else that is ever involved in trials is NEVER abandoned. Neuralink needs to be made responsible for maintaining the health of the patient and covering any and all costs to maintain this project for them even post bankruptcy. Complete care and support for the risk they are taking(even if its only anthony atm)

Ill shut up now but Ill leave you with this quote

I'm beating my friends in games that as a quadriplegic I should not be beating them in.

Anthony Arbaugh

Jarix ,

I mean that's been a "thing" since at least the late 80s. Not that i think its accurate but its all too common an opinion you will find that isnt completely batshit crazy.

3 other words Ride the Lightning

Ide follow that up with Carmina Burana oh fortuna - Carl Orff then strap into Ride of the Valkyries - Richard Wagner since we got 30 minutes

Instagram Advertises Nonconsensual AI Nude Apps (www.404media.co)

Instagram is profiting from several ads that invite people to create nonconsensual nude images with AI image generation apps, once again showing that some of the most harmful applications of AI tools are not hidden on the dark corners of the internet, but are actively promoted to users by social media companies unable or...

Jarix ,

Well fuck. The shittiest timeline

Jarix ,

What the fuck do you mean no?! This is happening right the fuck now. Its already happening. You DONT want it to decrease the total number actual real children who are used and abused to feed this shit?

I think you think im supporting this in some way. I AM NOT. Im saying i hope that any of the pedos out there are using this instead of taking action against actual children will not have already harmed children or at the very least reduce the total harm done.

Christ what the hell are we coming to if we cant even try to find some fucking sanity in this situation.

And for all that is good and right in the world i also very much hope it doesnt lead to MORE abuse.

Can we at least hope for the best while trying to fix the worst?

Jarix , (edited )

Look we dont know for sure. Im grasping at silver linings made of straws. I dont care how unlikely it is to be true, but there is a chance.

A chance that some day, months years or decades, we will find out whether or not it didnt work out in best way it could have given whats already happening. But we will get an answer that will be pretty hard to disagree with

And i wont be surpised when it isnt what im hoping it might be.
I wont be devastated or have my world view shattered.

Im not naive, im just hoping that we are wrong. Even if is a bit rediculous and theres only evidence to the contrary along the way.

What we know today may not be what we understand next year

Truth is stranger than fiction. We have soo many problems now its fine if we WANT an easy win we wont be able to KNOW the answer to for AN amount of time yet. But only if we are honest with ourselves that just because we want something, doesnt mean its has to happen. I also know that today

But holy hell my guy im fucking grasping that straw. This shit is too bleak and we need something to keep us from taking vigilant action. What we dont need is to stir the pot of fear worry and horror before its time to take action.

If we cant see paths to better places we will have one hell of a hard time recognizing things that will help us get to that path. And if you dont agree we need a new path, it might be too late for you
