I was at a small festival one time with my very rural-living family. There were people there passing out pamphlets that claimed dinosaurs were still alive in Jesus' time and that they existed alongside humans.

I nope'd away from them as fast as I could. Now I wish I'd stayed to listen and share the stupidity.

Don't insult toddlers like that. Toddlers are capable of learning.

Normal? Unfortunately it's too common.

Okay? Absolutely not. Even if it breaks your heart, if you truly care about the person that rejected you, you would want them to be happy either way. It's certainly not okay when there was no guarantee of the outcome, and not okay to be hurt by someone else's decision.

The former best friend is either trying to change the girlfriends mind through abuse, or lashing out like a toddler refused a new toy. As you said, she's immature, and showing it very well.

Some people say this girl is mean, crazy even

Very true, sounds like someone needs counseling.

others say she had the right to say that because she was hurt and my girlfriend should have said yes

Those people are very, very rude at best, and in my opinion, worth cutting ties with. Nobody should ever be made to give any answer or if guilt. If the girlfriend had said yes out of guilt, she'd be depressed and regretful for it every day. Anyone that shames a person for their own decision doesn't have that persons best interest at heart.

I'm sorry this is happening to you, but you/girlfriends best thing to do is to ignore everyone that speaks ill of her choice. No friend would disrespect another friend's choice (unless that choice is dangerous for the person that made it), and actively attacking them over such a choice, as I said, it's only abuse.

He also tried to run for president himself in 2024. He's an entertainer, trying to draw a crowd. Perhaps he was implying 'yeah I'll take MAGAs money, it's still money,' or similar. He's only credible for capitalizing on any given situation. All of it was promotion, and if you're thinking, "he should have stood up while he could," the white house would have covered it up anyway. So you fucking figure it out.

Where's memeconomy when you need it?!

It's what I call my testicle. Just the one though. The other is normal.

It's a meme... In the meme community...???

Yeah, I use it through gemini (only cause pixel and bottom button press is easy) and he (unfortunately 🤮) uses grok, but we (or at least I do) only use it for image/object recognition. Really useful for that at least, although again, calling it AI might be a misnomer.

The only person around me (that I know) that uses AI is me and the company mechanic. I only ever use it as an easier 'image search' to find the source of manga/anime or similar things. He only uses it to figure out what brand/model machine he needs to work on so he uses it to find the manual pdfs.

I feel like we're using it the 'right way,' but I feel like we're not actually using the AI part so...

I 'learned' cursive, but never use it except my signature, and my reading of it is pretty bad. I regularly have to ask my coworkers whether a letter is this or that.

Probably not a helpful answer, just chiming in as an answer.

 

When on Voyager I'm unable to create new posts/comments, nor can I see my own inbox/profile history. At first I thought I caught a ban, because I can do all of these things on a separate instance account (made at .world for testing) through Voyager. However, after more testing, I'm able to post/comment through Firefox on the original account, so it's not an 'access revoked' issue. Anyone else having this problem? This is the original account, for reference.

 

I keep seeing ZippyBot post articles in incorrect communities just because a website is named poorly. Most recent example is a post in 'gaming' that's about a TV series, and not even about a game adaptation, but about t-shirts.

I went to go and block ZippySlop and wouldn't you know it? You can't ban 'admins.' ZippySlop posts to a wide array of communities that I do otherwise like, and the only other option besides blocking Zippy is to block all of those respective communities.

As that would be time consuming and detrimental to engagement of topics, why can't I block ZippyBot. Before anyone sneers 'cuz itz a admin bruh,' Why is a bot even an admin anyway?!

 

I've seen headlines this week about Olympic skiers and the dangers of a bigger bulge/cup or something?

 

Planning on watching the new Superman movie tonight and Amazon has a 'bonus x-ray edition' but no details besides having the same runtime. Anyone able to explain the difference? Is it behind-the-scenes, or same movie with extra x-ray effects, or what?

 

Obviously all theoretical. Unless...

The following assumes that they're tiny humanoids with wings and no magic spells/powers.

What would you say the size range is for our tiny winged beings? I often imagine incredibly small, like AA battery size. Then my brain makes like a runaway train, thinking about things like logistics and plausibility (I know they're fictional magic beings but that's the runaway train part).

Once I get into that mode, I start imagining them bigger, to an extent. As big as a futbol, usually. All the various children's stories have them anywhere from palm-sized to as small as bugs.

I guess for imagery sake, imagine you had a roommate that was one, so you have to take their size into account for things like cooking and cleaning. What chores would be exclusive to each person based on size? Would they be able to lift/carry human-size objects?
