Deranged Politicians Are Trying to Ban Wearing Masks

Jump

  • I have a cold right now, and I needed to pick up some cough syrup to give me some relief. I wore a mask to prevent my illness from spreading to other people.

    We should be normalizing this behaviour.

    Do you want a summer cold? No. Me either. Wear a mask when you're sick.

    • The salaries of Wikimedia executives are sparking an online debate about tech sector wages

    Jump

  • We'll look at that. I'm even MORE incentivized to donate, now

    • Your username is the prompt, what did you get? This is mine:

    Jump

  • That's a happy coincidence for me. This username is simply a combination of things within view when I created the account.

    • Your username is the prompt, what did you get? This is mine:

    • What Game Boy game do you love that you never hear anyone talk about?

    Jump

  • Played this on SNES and it's way underrated

    • What Game Boy game do you love that you never hear anyone talk about?

    Jump

  • I just looked at the prices on eBay and I have no idea what's going on over there. Are those accurate going-rate prices? I'm pretty sure I bought mine off the "games no one has ever heard of and will not buy" sale rack once upon a time, haha!

    I had no idea there were sequels! Thanks for that bit of info

    • What Game Boy game do you love that you never hear anyone talk about?

    Jump

  • Survival Kids

    It's a bit of a silly survival game that starts with you being stranded on an island. I got a kick out of it because there were a few different game endings that were dependent on the actions you took earlier in the game.

    • An Asian MIT student asked AI to turn an image of her into a professional headshot. It made her white with lighter skin and blue eyes.

    Jump

  • Racial bias propagating, click-baity article.

    Did anyone bother to fact check this? I ran her exact photo and prompt through Playground AI and it pumped out a bad photo of an Indian woman. Are we supposed to play the raical bias card against Indian women now?

    This entire article can be summarized as "Playground AI isn't very good, but that's boring news so let's dress it up as something else"

    • Sound Off: How many 10+ year redditors have left the site?

    Jump

  • 13 years, and honestly I thank them for the kick in the ass I needed to get off that site.

    I overwrote my posts and deleted my account. I wish them luck, but Reddit has evolved into something I no longer want to be a part of.

    • Period tracking app options?

    Jump

  • Folks are misleading you. There's CONCERN this could happen, it's not happening.

    • Handheld consoles required to have replaceable batteries by 2027 - Nintendo Switch and Steam Deck

    Jump

  • Me too, but I also really like the water resistance in our current generation of phones. Is it possible to get water resistance AND a removable battery? I'd sign up for that.

    • Neopets is promising a ‘new era’ with an improved website and fixed Flash games

    Jump

  • I'll never get over my account getting a temporary ban because I was chatting with my sister about one of her foster cats being pregnant. Apparently "pregnant" was a problematic term. I moved over to Marapets and I actually still check into that site daily.

    • The AI boom is screwing over Gen Z | ChatGPT is commandeering the mundane tasks that young employees have relied on to advance their careers.

    Jump

  • money and profits generated by those mundane tasks are still realized, it’s just that they are no longer going to workers, but funneled straight to the top

    Workers should be paid royalties for their contributions. If "the top" is able to reap the rewards indefinitely, so should the folks who built the systems.

    • Permanent ban on last day with Apollo app. Called u/Spez a cunt in a message 😂

    Jump

  • Pao was hired to do a specific job, she did it, and then she was sacrificed. She was 100% a scapegoat.

    • Goodnight, RIF

    Jump

  • I paid for RiF about 10 years ago, and it's one of the best purchases I've ever made. Big shout out to the development team for their support all these years!
