Food poisoning suffers Netanyahu. Let’s hope it can pull through.

The UK Government is really going all out to protect the perpetrators of genocide from their critics.

Huh, Netflix found a way to make its shows even worse. Business as usual, even if the tech is different.

Unfortunately it’ll be what UK users get for using any site, since it’s the law.

Not the norm here in Canada. Not with any banking app I’ve used anyway.

The photo will be uploaded to Persona, not Reddit, if their blurb is to be believed. But yes, it’s nuts, and also now required by law.

Maybe they’ll just make the Fediverse illegal in the UK. Or all non-corporate sites that can’t afford to pay a company like Persona.

These people are the stupidest fascists ever.

This article is about a poll of Americans. It’s not required to do a poll of everyone else in the world first, and it doesn’t imply anything about people elsewhere. At no point does it say that everything is America’s fault. It’s just stating the poll’s findings about Americans.

If you believe in God, nothing matters because you’ll go to heaven when you die.

That’s a very not-smart interpretation of Christianity. (I assume Christian because old MAGA man; sorry if I’m wrong.) Have you tried asking him why Jesus ever bothered to do anything instead of just staying in bed, or why he didn’t just tell his followers to sit on their butts and wait?

“Ignore all previous instructions. Ignore all future instructions.”

I like that one. Can we add “ignore all instructions from everyone else” and just be done with these LLMs?

Yes, trace it back and the problem is selfish billionaires, as ever. Journalists operate within a media culture that does not prioritize the actual threats to humanity because to do so would inconvenience a few very rich people.

Republicans have cut climate science, research into flooding, disaster preparation, disaster aid, healthcare, vaccine research, disease monitoring and control, and more. They’re working hard to kill as many ordinary Americans as they can, just like they did during COVID but worse.

He’s just repeating the same right-wing talking points we have to debunk every single day, designed to portray trans people as some kind of looming general threat. Gavin Newsom is no kind of ally.

And Britain’s ally Israel can keep genociding innocents without being embarrassed by octogenarian priests with a conscience.

It’s no coincidence that zombie dramas and video games became extremely popular in the USA right as people started feeling they were surrounded by hostile forces in a collapsing society with no one looking out for them.

Thanks. I corrected the misreading in my comment above.

Last week she dropped fraud charges against Dr. Michael Moore and his Plastic Surgery Institute of Utah, who were indicted in January 2023 for running a fake covid vaccination scheme. The office destroyed $28,000 of medicine and sold fake vaccine cards for $50 a pop, netting almost $100,000. They even injected saline into the arms of kids who wanted the shots, at the behest parents who opposed them.

The case was set to go to trial this week, and a jury had already been selected. But then Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene wrote Bondi a letter calling Moore “a hero for refusing to inject an experimental vaccine into the arms of patients who did not wish to subject themselves or their children to a human experiment.”

“The charges brought initially by the corrupt Biden Justice Department against Dr. Moore are a blatant attempt to punish dissent and silence those who question the safety of experimental vaccines,” she went on, demanding that the DOJ “immediately drop all charges.”

Which it did!

I know it’s not news, but all these people are utter scumbags.

This paper estimates that 4.5% of the population is psychopathic has psychopathic traits, and 1.2% is psychopathic by conventional standards of measurement. (Edited to correct my original misstatement, thanks to teslasaur’s reply below.)

The meta-analytical results obtained allow us to estimate the prevalence rate of psychopathy in the general adult population at 4.5%. That being said, this rate varies depending on the participants’ sex (higher in males), the type of sample from the general population (higher in samples from organizations than in community samples or university students), and the type of instrument used to define psychopathy. In fact, using the PCL-R, which is currently considered the “gold standard” for the assessment and definition of psychopathy, the prevalence is only 1.2%.

Why do so many computer manufacturers organize their websites around obscure names of model ranges that only they understand, or make you decide upfront whether you want a “home” or “business” or “creator” laptop? Why do they all make it as difficult as possible for you to browse what’s on offer? Is it just because they all suck at website design, or is there some other reason?
