  I don’t understand what these folks are saying. VirtualBox is community software. It does not matter that it comes from Oracle since it is fully libre/open.

  Yeah, this is super fucked up. I think that it would be powerful and completely reasonable to have the AI read actual words he wrote, like from old text messages, emails, or whatever. That is a legitimate way to bring someone to life—completely ethical if they wrote the material. This is a disgrace to justice and ridiculous.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Not difficult to understand⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  This question should be illegal to ask.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Not difficult to understand⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  This can also help you filter the lunatics from the normal workplaces. In an interview, I once explained that I couldn’t discuss specifics of my client work because of confidentiality and NDAs, and they kept pushing. It wasn’t even the same industry! There was no obvious competitive advantage.

  Because it reads like this:

  “In some countries, [like those in] Europe and South America”.

  Because he makes videos about technical details like this.

  I meant from the perspective of a rational person who cares about health, not an idiot that deserves to have its head chopped off in a guillotine.

  Obviously we should have bigger radiology machines. It wouldn’t be unreasonable to have them where you have a substantial fat population.

  That’s my favorite one too. I wish this were real so bad.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Trump, in blue, sleeping at Pope Francis' funeral⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  And that’s why it is stupid to mock this idiot for napping.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Trump, in blue, sleeping at Pope Francis' funeral⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Nothing wrong with being old and getting some shuteye.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If you're still on Lemmy...⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s legit. If this post were a call for good self care and mental health, I wouldn’t have commented. I tire quite easily of individualistic solutions to social and institutional problems.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If you're still on Lemmy...⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Neither of these are true lol. Someone has to tell the right wingers they deserve the death penalty for treason.

  I don’t agree that it’s open to interpretation or that your first example constitutes “regular people shit” in any meaningful way. I agree that there’s a difference between having servants and not, obviously, but I don’t think it’s that helpful of a distinction here.

  Second of all, flying on a private jet and living in a mega mansion is in no way middle class. I just can’t get on board with the idea of mom picking you up in a Bentley and getting snacks out of a walk-in fridge as being middle class.

  I think my point stands. I think it was good to raise them with limits and some humility, that will help them in life, but I think “middle class” and “regular people shit” is simply inapplicable here.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bill Gates Bought His Daughter A $16 Million Horse Farm As A Graduation Gift — But Ex-Wife Melinda Says The Kids Were Raised Very 'Middle Class'⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s all she’s saying. They raised the kids with limits. That’s what she should have said. They obviously weren’t raised “middle class” or anything like it.

  Yep, this is just a standard market segmentation.

  It is a miracle that these guys survive to reproductive age.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Adobe Gets Bullied Off Bluesky⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s correct. It’s stupid so I just say tweets.

  Which other site? Twitter?

  Is this a Michael Hobbes joke?
