Everything this article says it’s true. Google needs to be forced to stop giving money to Mozilla. It’s driven the org into the ground. When the decision supposed to be made? October? I hope Google loses and Mozilla wakes the fuck up.

I don’t get why loops requires registration. It feels like an instagram pattern and I really dislike it.

I didn’t know about their craziness, but the UN office of human rights has had their eye on the organ harvesting allegations since at least 2016. The Falun Gong might be as crazy as scientologists and mormons, but that doesn’t mean they should be treated this way.

USAians drinking coke instead of tea. Makes sense. Guess making a good cuppa takes too long to fill the immediate need for another sugar dump 🤷‍♂

It is worse than nothing the longer Russia does it the more they open themselves up to brutal counterattacks.

How so?

A single well timed and planned devastating armored combined arms counterattack could retake all that ground gained in an instant

They could regain 500 km² of ground with one single attack? Are you sure? I really hope you’re right, because that would be amazing, but I’m sceptical.

No, this is Putin/Russia continuing an offensive they cannot afford, this will not work out for them militarily and smacks of someone trying to cheat their way into keeping the territory they gained in a war when they have no capacity to fight an effective defense of that territory

China is propping them up, which is the biggest reason they can continue this war. Without China, Russia probably would’ve run out of steam a very long time ago. If Europe and the US were able to successfully hinder China from helping Russia, I assume the war would probably end very quickly.

To me creeping forward is that: creeping forward. 5% is not a creep. It’s really subjective, which is why to me “advancing” is not a bad term, but a little too big as a word 🤷

Make everyone lactose intolerance: everyone is a malfunctioning system now.

Indeed, yes. It’s subjective and we are both somewhere in the middle with a bit of nuance, but there are people who just throw it around willy nilly. The unhinged use is what this post felt like. “I see slop everywhere”. Makes me think of the phrase “if you smell shit everywhere, look under your shoe”.

They factually are advancing though. 0.7% is that. It may be gradual, but it’s something. I would rather read headlines of Ukraine reversing it of course.

I think you’re taking offence at the word “advance”. It does sound “big”. If they wrote “creeping forward”, would that be more acceptable?

I look forward to the football world cup. That’s going to be amazing. Right after a match, ICE is going to walk onto the pitch and arrest non-white football player - if they even get into the country.

inb4 “but it’s too expensive 😭😭😭” *buys an iPhone instead*

Could’ve bought a new android phone for the same price.

From what you say, you perceive the term “slop” as a direct synonym to “low quality”, without any extras.

Slop to me is a simple, low-quality, repetitive output.

If you went to a restaurant that made a high-quality, complex soup, for hundreds of customers per day with the help of machines, would you call it slop? I wouldn’t.

If the restaurant however made ramen from packets, threw in some starch to make it thicker, and they had a nice big ladle to slap that liquid into a vessel with a nice sound, I would for sure call that slop.

That output is what matters, because there’s no way for us to see the input. How are you going to know what words somebody used to generate an AI image?

Slop to me is a simple, low-quality, repetitive output. So, it’s not just one simple, low-quality medium but many. Looks at this video for examples. Or just scroll youtube shorts after searching for anything Indian or even literally “omg look at this” for the search term and you’ll see what I’m talking about.

If you have a hard time telling whether AI did it or not, it’s not slop.

“slop” is being thrown around just like “socialist” and “gay”. Save it for actual AI slop. Just because something is made by AI doesn’t make it automatically “slop” 🙄

Nowhere in the comic does it do that. It just shows a humanoid with cat ears.

Consoomers aren’t to blame. Why? Because I’m a consoomer myself and I know I’m not to blame. Not even partially. I am completely absolved from any blame because I’m a consoomer. Where does it say so? I say so. I will consoom for the economy and that’s how I participate in society.

I buy plastic bottles because I’m powerless. I buy big tech products because I’m powerless to their advertising. I buy non-fairtrade products because, you guessed it, powerless. I leave the tap on while brushing my teeth because industry uses millions of litres more than I ever could making products for me to consoom. I am powerless! I can consoom anything I like, whenever I like, however I like, because I’m a weak pawn with no independence.
