- Comment on Is it rude to reply using English under posts in a language you can’t speak? 6 days ago:
Yeah, this is the way. It’s better to let the other person do the translating, rather than presenting maybe your ideas by using a translator. It would be like running everything you post through an AI first. Best to give as much intent as possible

Fuck, I don’t want to be a keyboard pervert, but these are some good points
- Comment on Texas bill would make identifying as transgender a felony punishable by jail 3 weeks ago:
Yeah, I think it’s this. It’s cope to try to make a normal thing be seen as disgusting, so whatever actual disgusting shit they’re doing, which always seems to be pedophelia, doesn’t look so bad in contrast. It’s like a preemptive both sides
- Comment on I am at a loss on words 4 weeks ago:
Yeah, it took me a long time to get this, because I was too impressed by the design lol

- Comment on The US Is Considering a TP-Link Router Ban—Should You Worry? 5 weeks ago:
It looks just like the Tik Tok ban to me. Racist/Nationalist nonsense that doesn’t solve the actual underlying problem, which is lack of regulation in the US

“the single greatest insider threat risk the Bureau of the Fiscal Service has ever faced.”

Every game borrows from other games’ ideas and mechanics
It’s not only games, this is just straight-up how art works. Culture develops over time. Of course capitalism had to get a middleman in there lol
- Comment on AI-generated phishing emails are getting very good at targeting executives 2 months ago:
Yes, a pleb that clicked a link that brought the org to an expensive screeching halt for weeks, would have been fired

All my IRL friends have been sharing the same memes we see here
- Comment on FBI recommends coming up with a 'secret word or phrase' to make sure your family know you're you and not some hellish AI copycat 3 months ago:
Saying the same thing over and over again in different conversations would be super useful if your goal is to train an AI to listen to calls

- Comment on Academic papers yanked after authors found to have used unlicensed software 4 months ago:
Don’t underestimate the power of executives to make really dumb choices. My company decided we’d create our own ticketing system this year, and now my Firefox tab consumes multiple gigabytes of ram…
- Comment on Serving as the POTUS as a Non-Medical Intervention for Preventing Cognitive Decline in the Elderly (N=2) 5 months ago:
…the difference was determined to be insignificant…
These findings suggest that being elected the President of the United States may be a viable strategy for mitigating cognitive decline among older adults.
That feels like a bit of a jump
- Comment on "You'll end up in a van down by the river" if you do drugs, don't go to college, etc. advice never includes the warning: "Don't suffer major Depression that gives you complete apathy for existence." 5 months ago:
You have a big paper due on Monday? Don’t smoke until it’s done, because you won’t get more creative, you’ll just not do it.
I actually love writing while high. Everything flows so much more easily for me, and I make connections I might not otherwise. It’s great when I’m having trouble just getting words on the page. It does usually require an extra passover in editing though lol

The university I went to told us not to bother with unpaid internships, because it’s just a sign the company doesn’t care about you. Paid internships pretty much always still give college credit.

Do you see people with the Unsalted decals as well? There are a ton of those here in Michigan, with the same font, and I’ve seen them in surrounding states as well. Maybe the areas on the border should get Brackish stickers lol
