- Comment on What is the magic diet for no-wipe poops? 4 days ago:
Eat enough that your body gets used to it?
If I had to guess I’d say its based on the amount of water I drink, and maybe coffee poops keeping me regular, less about the diet itself.
Dunno for sure, but I do know I have been so regular it was a surprise when someone told me a bidet reduces toilet paper usage, because I just didn’t believe it could do so. That’s because it can’t in my case. Takes me about as long to poop as it does to pee. Wish I could tell you what exactly I’m doing right but something is right.
- Comment on What is the magic diet for no-wipe poops? 4 days ago:
Always gotta wipe, just in case, but I rarely actually need to. No idea what I’m doing right so here’s some facts about my diet
-
I drink a gallon+ between straight water, coffee, and flavored sparkling water (no calorie, aspartame-sweetened)
-
My breakfast is usually cereal with 1% milk or bacon and eggs once a week.
Ramen for lunch
Pizza or pasta for dinner, with a vegetable side
Fruits and whatnot are eaten intermittently as snacks.
Hope this helps I guess its not the best diet but I’m always regular.

- Comment on [Update: Valve Responds] Mastercard Denies Pressuring Steam To Censor 'NSFW' Games 4 days ago:
That’s true but anyone agaimt its inclusion would just say it doesn’t add to the story. “Clearly it detracts from the story, as the player would be distracted by the horrific event instead of enjoying the game” -some hypothetical mastercard Exec, right before fining Valve.
It’s not a court, so there’s no appeal from that, unless there’s an appeal granted by the contract itself.

- Comment on Scientists discover promising new way to filter microplastics out of human body: 'The dose makes the poison' 1 month ago:
A lot of our neurons are with us for our whole life. Early neuron degeneration is what causes Alzheimer’s, Parkinsons, and similar disorders.
Not all neurons last a lifetime, and there are kinds that die off and are replaced, but a good chunk of them aren’t meant to replicate anymore and so won’t be freed of microplastics by bloodletting, and would cause serious problems if microplastics harm their normal processes.
- Comment on Scientists discover promising new way to filter microplastics out of human body: 'The dose makes the poison' 1 month ago:
Regular cells die or split regularly. When they die, white blood cells eat them, and they’ll be part of filtering the blood.
Neurons don’t though. There’s still some concerns.

- Comment on Tis the way 2 months ago:
You’re missing how a bunch of their friends from their new social class already do drugs and how good those drugs feel.
Easy hole to fall into, but money honestly makes it harder to climb out of, you can always afford the drugs.
So it becomes the norm, whereas someone at the poverty line with an addiction can’t afford them regularly and has to spend grocery money on them and therefore might be addicted but also resents them.
Rich people can afford to normalize drugs and consider themselves fine while they’re on them, because they’re still living within their means.
- Comment on The Collapse of GPT: Will future artificial intelligence systems perform increasingly poorly due to AI-generated material in their training data? 2 months ago:
The difference is, if this were to happen and it was found later that a court case crucial to the defense were used, that’s a mistrial. Maybe even dismissed with prejudice.
Courts are bullshit sometimes, it’s true, but it would take deliberate judge/lawyer collusion for this to occur, or the incompetence of the judge and the opposing lawyer.
Is that possible? Sure. But the question was “will fictional LLM case law enter the general knowledge?” and my answer is “in a functioning court, no.”
If the judge and a lawyer are colluding or if a judge and the opposing lawyer are both so grossly incompetent, then we are far beyond an improper LLM citation.
TL;DR As a general rule, you have to prove facts in court. When that stops being true, liars win, no AI needed.
- Comment on The Collapse of GPT: Will future artificial intelligence systems perform increasingly poorly due to AI-generated material in their training data? 2 months ago:
Nah that means you can ask an LLM “is this real” and get a correct answer.
That defeats the point of a bunch of kinds of material.
Deepfakes, for instance. International espionage, propaganda, companies who want “real people”.
A simple is_ai checkbox of any kind is undesirable, but those sources will end back up in every LLM, even one that was behaving and flagging its output.
You’d need every LLM to do this, and there’s open source models, there’s foreign ones. And as has already been proven, you can’t rely on an LLM detecting a generated product without it.
The correct way to do it would be to instead organize a not-ai certification for real content. But that would severely limit training data. It could happen once quantity of data isn’t the be-all end-all for a model, but I dunno when when or if that’ll be the case.
- Comment on The Collapse of GPT: Will future artificial intelligence systems perform increasingly poorly due to AI-generated material in their training data? 2 months ago:
No, because there’s still no case.
Law textbooks that taught an imaginary case would just get a lot of lawyers in trouble, because someone eventually will wanna read the whole case and will try to pull the actual case, not just a reference. Those cases aren’t susceptible to this because they’re essentially a historical record. It’s like the difference between a scan of the declaration of independence and a high school history book describing it. Only one of those things could be bullshitted by an LLM.
Also applies to law schools. People do reference back to cases all the time, there’s an opposing lawyer, after all, who’d love a slam dunk win of “your honor, my opponent is actually full of shit and making everything up”. Any lawyer trained on imaginary material as if it were reality will just fail repeatedly.
LLMs can deceive lawyers who don’t verify their work. Lawyers are in fact required to verify their work, and the ones that have been caught using LLMs are quite literally not doing their job. If that wasn’t the case, lawyers would make up cases themselves, they don’t need an LLM for that, but it doesn’t happen because it doesn’t work.

Same. And then when I believed it was real, I still thought it was some throwaway game, because that’s not just a gimmick, it’s a silly one.
I agree that if its fun for people, have fun, but I never could take the game seriously while a bunch of anime characters and freaking Goofy. Couldn’t get into the story.

I’d never heard of it so I tried it out, it seemed fine until the end where it listed about ten different distros with no real way to differentiate them.
Like, yeah, mint and Ubuntu and elementary and zorin and xubuntu all work for my use cases. I wanted it to give me a reason why one is better than another.
So, yeah, can’t recommend that website. It’s trying to help, but it won’t, really.

- Comment on Congress Moving Forward On Unconstitutional Take It Down Act 3 months ago:
Here’s the text.
“Judgment in Cases of Impeachment shall not extend further than removal from Office, and disqualification to hold and enjoy any Office of honor, Trust, or Profit under the United States; but the Party convicted shall nevertheless be liable and subject to Indictment, Trial, Judgment and Punishment, according to Law.”
Impeachment is important and it should’ve happened, but the senate literally can’t do anything except remove him from office, and the impeachment text specifically allows for regular law to also apply to whoever got impeached.
So no, we do not have this covered by impeachment, and no former president is immune from regular legal proceedings.
Current presidents are, though, through supreme court precedent and the self-pardon. Former presidents should not automatically get this benefit though.
- Comment on Congress Moving Forward On Unconstitutional Take It Down Act 3 months ago:
No.
Of course even the president has a right to due process, but no. If the president commits treason, he doesn’t get to be immune to that. A trial is warranted and an arrest if found guilty is correct.
Yes, corruption could hypothetically rig such a trial. But a president immune from the consequences of his actions means there only needs to be one person corrupted to ruin a whole branch of government, instead of the hundreds it would take Congress to rig a trial.
