  • It's a tabloid-quality "study", but if you shuck away all the words she uses, and look at the numbers which are more easily attributed to actual gold-digging

    There are five million members on SeekingArrangement. Overall, the site has 3.8 million Sugar Babies, and 12% are male: 460,000. Moreover, this is an 84% jump in male Sugar Baby membership from the start of 2014.

    Kind of 10 vs 1

    Millennial men are also more likely to want to have a prenuptial agreement than males of other generations (32% vs. 25% of Gen X males and 17% of Boomer males) perhaps because they are more likely to be viewing marriage as a financial/contractual arrangement as much as a romantic partnership.

    And this is just pure farce. Prenuptial agreements are for protecting from gold-diggers and taking the money away from having to do anything with the marriage. i.e. The opposite. Focusing on romance (if it exists).

    To clarify, everybody knows marriage is a financial arrangement. You would have to be an intense fool to ignore that. Whether you do something to protect yourself against unbalanced finances is just a question of your perception of society.

    You could probably say I am picking out pieces. And I am. But if you just look at the numbers and ignore the farce of the author, I think you can make more truthful conclusions. (The whole piece reads to me like purposeful twisted propaganda, starting from the title. Or, well, just tabloid-quality journalism)

  • Idk man, I think you neither looked at the statistics, nor lived that long on this world. While true, it is extreme to only have one side of the coin, the other side is just not as likely by statistics...

    In the end... it's a game? I mean, I guess I grew up to live with rifles and walk with a switchblade while going to the store. And expect all women to be scantily clad mages walking with staves and high heels.

  • It's even less of a thing. Things like AWS have datacenters in Europe, where most of Europe-side of traffic is hosted. Even if Trump made executive decisions to stop any internets companies doing business in Europe, it would have ZERO impact on the subsidy. Any cloud issues would really only impact "vertical scaling cloud-native" bullshit software, there are plenty and most reasonable companies are based on more sane (and less expensive) hosting solutions, which are in-house European.

    Takes a massive fool to think European companies are basing their data in US continent, where the ping would be >150ms, and speeds would be far slower and less manageable.

  • I wouldn't define flipping coins as decision making. Especially when it comes to blanket governmental policy that has the potential to kill (or severely disable) millions of people.

    You seem to not want any people to teach you anything. And are somehow completely dejected at such perceived actions.

  • LLM does no decision making. At all. It spouts (as you say) bullshit. If there is enough training data for "Trump is divine", the LLM will predict that Trump is divine, with no second thought (no first thought either). And it's not even great to use as a language-based database.

    Please don't even consider LLMs as "AI".

  • Your argument becomes idiotic once you understand the actual technology. The AI bullshit machine's agenda is "give nice answer" ("factual" is not an idea that has neural center in the AI brain), and "make reader happy". The human "bullshit" machine, has many agendas, but it would have not got so far if it was spouting just happy bullshit (but I guess America is a becoming a very special case).

  • What is this "check-mate, atheists" sort of logic? We are not birds. Also we aren't dogs, so eating chocolate doesn't kill us either.

    This also only happens when you heat teflon past its breaking point, at which point, it's no different than burning plastic.

  • Just a random point: the actual coating (teflon) is completely non-toxic. The manufacturing process of teflon is the cause of a large amount of PFOAs in nature/food chain. The pan has no PFOAs most likely after the first cooking session, or likely before (unless the factory just completely brazenly does not even wash it once)

  • Since this sublemmy doesn't have any requirement for the title to be the same as the source, can we actually have a correct title: "Microsoft abides to laws in EU and does <...>", or even better "Microsoft is forced under EU law to <...>".

    The title makes it appear as if it's out of charity and goodness of their corporate heart. (Fabrication)

  • A fun fact is, nobody (including complicit Germans) knew how evil the concentration camps and the actions of the Nazi party were, until the allies actually won...

    You might very well be very past that point, just whimsically unaware.
