It’s beneficial to hang out with normal people too. Even if you have to use social skills to keep hanging out. You lose that link and lose a tether to reality.

Technology@lemmy.world•Kickstarter bans all NSFW content from the websiteEnglish
6·1 month agoThat is generally the impetus behind religious institutions disdain for it. Their best chance to increase their numbers is through indoctrination of the children of their current members. Conversions rarely occur, despite how much they are talked up when they do.
They are, of course, wrong to think that. Toys, in practice, generally increase intimacy and likelihood of a couple having children. But not as much as being raised your entire life being told that it is the entire purpose of life and if you don’t have as many kids as you theoretically could, you have done yourself a disservice. So as long as they conflate the results, they will keep assuming they are correct in doing both.

20·4 months agoIt might be about general knowledge of how colliders work, the sentence structure does it no favours, but half way through I realised it had to be intentional/beneficial due to knowing the only possible way a collider generates heat as a byproduct.
Where as someone that doesn’t know much about colliders might read that sentence and assume it’s like radiative heat or something.
The cockroach mice might be that they had only heard about or seen other slighly less terrible drawings of lobsters.
Edit: Oh wait, thats the ET thing.
The cockroach mice are little paisley looking ones.
Stuff like this makes a bit more sense when you think about how Autism has been a thing for a very long time. This is the kind of shit we still get up to now.

News@lemmy.world•How Many Members Does Antifa Have? Where Is Its Headquarters? The FBI Has No Answers.
21·6 months agoYes, but they normally do their best to pretend it isn’t the case. Though there is of course the argument that this ‘is’ their best.

News@lemmy.world•How Many Members Does Antifa Have? Where Is Its Headquarters? The FBI Has No Answers.
692·6 months agoDid they do the math on that sentence?
Anti-fascists and other anti-americans.
Anti-fascist = Anti-american
Divide both sides by anti.
Fascist = American
I don’t want to spoil the surprise, but I think it might be escaped convicts riding escaped zoo animals.

5·6 months agoIf they would have focussed on making a good place first, and then corrupting it with commercialism, they could have at least boiled a few of us frogs. But you can’t start with the commercialism foot forward and the quality foot behind and expect to make a place worth visiting.

News@lemmy.world•US airstrike survivors clung to boat wreckage for an hour before second deadly attack, video shows
5·6 months agoHere’s the thing, if there was drugs on the boat, killing them still isn’t ok. But no, we don’t even “know” if they are telling the truth about the drugs either. We have no idea why they want these people killed. We have to “trust” them… I don’t.

Technology@lemmy.world•Elon Musk Had Grok Rewrite Wikipedia. It Calls Hitler “The Führer.”English
4·7 months agoOk, so it’d be like if a wikipedia page about jesus said he was “our lord and saviour” instead of saying “some people consider him to be their lord and saviour”. A page for “Lord and saviour” as a phrase might still list jesus as one possible link.
Basically taking a first person position on it, instead of a third person position. Like grokipedia is writing from first person perspective that Hitler is the fuhrer, which when you consider that it is a significant departure from the wikipedia article, as only 0.01% of the content of grokipedia is, suggests it’s a hand crafted article written by someone that would refer to hitler personally as the leader, and not as someone some people used to call “the leader”.
There is a reason it was edited immediately as soon as people noticed, due to how bad it looked once pointed out.

Technology@lemmy.world•Elon Musk Had Grok Rewrite Wikipedia. It Calls Hitler “The Führer.”English
9·7 months agoOnly his followers actually use(d) that title for him, everyone else when using that word about him, would say it’s the title his followers call(ed) him. Like how wikipedia is using it. Grok is just using it as his title, like a follower would.
You can think of it kind of like “dear leader” in north korea. Anyone calling him that outside of north korea is at least doing it sarcastically or using air quotes. This would be like if the news called him that with a sincere reverent tone.

Technology@lemmy.world•Elon Musk Had Grok Rewrite Wikipedia. It Calls Hitler “The Führer.”English
231·7 months agoTo be fair, the wikipedia article says he was called that by the people that followed him. It never calls him that itself.
The grokipedia article, just calls him that.
A subtle, but very important, distinction.
Not to mention the other important part where grok buries any mention of the holocaust 13000 words in, where as it’s in the intro on wikipedia.
Keep in mind, by default, grokipedia started with a copy of what wikipedia said, so any changes are what was hand-edited on purpose.
The changes speak to what they wanted it to say and do differently.
It was believable though, because bluetooth has always been randomly a nightmare.

Like sure ‘every pedophile’ is better, but half is a good start, we’ll get the rest in due time. Stuff is constantly leaking.

News@lemmy.world•Angola High School teacher arrested after two students allegedly ate THC edibles she left in classroom
4·7 months agoIs that not what the other commenters here are arguing? Cuz even when I ask them if that’s what they are saying they keep answering like it is what they are saying, that I must not have gone to an american school. No, I didn’t go to an american school, is it really that bad there? Like Canada is right next to the states, it can’t be that much worse just crossing one border.

The refund policy is that it is an automatic “no questions asked” refund if it qualifies by being under 2 hours played or 2 weeks owned. If it doesn’t qualify, you can still get a refund, there just are questions asked then. Their refund policy is pretty much the gold standard.
