  • The writing was on the wall when reddit restricted buying awards in anything but the official app. For some reason, I even have a vivid recollection of where I was in the world when that went down.

  • Gotcha. My CPR training was so long ago, and the only relevant information that really stuck with me was "the AED will directly instruct you if it thinks a shock is helpful based on what it detects", after that the specifics just kinda fell through my brain.

  • I would personally imagine that you may need to be defibrillated at some point but otherwise probably yes? The toxins are causing the paralysis and people do survive it so I can only imagine that the heart takes back over after a certain amount of effort. Otherwise, I don't actually know.

  • The fact is Steam is the only company that benefits from an army of simps ready to defend Gaben at the slightest hint of negativity.

    Well yeah it'd be weird to defend gaben against allegations at a different company.

    Oh, did you mean that gaben is the only person who has a weirdly parasocial fan base? That's demonstrably not true.

  • "This code is giving me a return value of X instead of Y"

    "Ah the reason you're having trouble is because you initialized this list with brackets instead of new()."

    "How would a syntax error give me an incorrect return"

    "You're right, thanks for correcting me!"

    "Ok so like... The problem though."

  • Not copilot, but I run into a fourth problem:
    4 The LLM gets hung up on insisting that a newer feature of the language I'm using is wrong and keeps focusing on "fixing" it, even though it has access to the newest correct specifications where the feature is explicitly defined and explained.

  • Not a furry, but I do have a TF fetish. Using furry websites exposed me to the good and bad sides of furries and ultimately has, I believe, led me to more critically think about the nature of online rhetoric when it comes to repressed identities and over-expressed identities.

    I'm given to believe that a big draw of fursuiting, for example, is that they can be whoever they want in public. They can bear the whips and arrows of scorn because they're in a silly badger costume and don't give a single fuck about anyone else's opinion about what they do with their time and money and bodies legally in public.

    I wouldn't be surprised if there isn't some kernel of resentment against the ability to be who you want to be without fear of societal pressure that can cause a kind of overcorrection on other end that just pushes people into blind rage.

    "Ha'ak! How can you even look at it! You let her," and Vimes had seldom heard a word sprayed with so much venom, "her flaunt herself, here! And it's happening everywhere because people have not been firm, not obeyed, have let the old ways slide! Everywhere there are reports. They're eating away at everything dwarfish with their... their soft clothes and paint and beastly ways. How can you be King and allow this? Everywhere they are doing it and you do nothing! Why should they be allowed to do this?" Now [they were] sobbing. "I can't!"
