I only use the camera for casual pictures and it’s fine. It’s still the same lenses and sensors after all. The camera app obviously isn’t as all singing all dancing as stock but perfectly functional, has all the features you’d expect.

They keep making these big deals with tech companies saying they’ll add more money to the economy despite these businesses like Google being nothing but extractive and pulling money out of the markets they operate in and putting it into the hands of the tech-bros while simultaneously eroding the basic freedoms and qualities of living in the UK.
Google paid just £50M in tax last year on £1.8B an effective tax rate of 0.28%.
Stop sucking the genitalia of big tech companies, they’re literally the worst.

There’s nothing inherently wrong with paper ballots if the system itself is trustworthy. Since America’s electronic voting systems are largely compromised their untrustworthy too and a lot easier to manipulate at the scales needed to throw an election.

From my basic understanding of gut science, the bacteria that do the actual digestion for you grow and multiply based on what you eat. So if you’re a professional athlete and you eat a diet tailored for performance you’ll have more bacteria for digesting protein and carbohydrates. If you’re a normal schlub like UK you’ll have a mix of stuff depending on what you tend to eat.
You cam shift your gut flora but it takes years and years of work to do but fecal transplants basically put a whole package of the bacteria you want directly into your gut kick starting that shift if you’re feeding them the stuff that they want.
I’ve read about this sort of thing for trying to cure various gastro-intestinal conditions like crohns but not specifically for performance gains. Sounds possibly legit but as with all “miracle treatments” potentially complete bullshit magic beans.
- Comment on Stop children using VPNs to watch porn, ministers told 3 days ago:
It’s easier to police the users than it is to get social media companies to actually do the literal minimum amount of work to protect children. Plus it has the added benefit of greatly expanding the surveillance infrastructure so they can clamp down on those pesky 80 year old nuns who oppose genocide.

I once had someone (during my thankfully short stint in retail) try and return a block of cheese that had gone mouldy before the use by date.
The packet was open and half eaten and he admitted they hadn’t kept it in the fridge.
And my manager over rode me and gave the refund!

- Comment on British soldiers still paying for sex in Kenya despite ban 1 week ago:
A Captain in the foreign legion was transferred to a desert outpost. On his orientation tour he noticed a very old, seedy looking camel tied out back of the enlisted men’s barracks. He asked the Sergeant leading the tour, “What’s the camel for?”
The Sergeant replied, “Well sir it’s a long way from anywhere, and the men have natural sexual urges, so when they do, uh, we have the camel.”
The captain said, “Well if it’s good for morale, then I guess it’s all right with me.”
After he had been at the fort for about 6 months the captain could not stand it any more so he told his Sergeant, “BRING IN THE CAMEL!!!”
The sarge shrugged his shoulders and led the camel into the captain’s quarters. The captain got a footstool and proceeded to have vigorous sex with the camel. As he stepped, satisfied, down from the stool, and was buttoning his pants he asked the Sergeant, “Is that how the enlisted men do it?”
The Sergeant replied, “Well sir, they usually just use it to ride to town and go to the brothel…”

- Comment on White Maleman, cooking YouTuber, loves to tell you what to do 1 week ago:
Well, if you want to get specific, the Doge of Venice built a fleet to transport the crusader armies departing from Venice, but due to them mostly not having the money to pay for transit, he instead of sailing them to Jerusalem, he got the sailors to take them to Zara (on the Adriatic coast of modern day Turkey) with whom he already had issues with (they were rebellious subjects of Venice he wanted crushing).
After that, the Byzantine prince Alexios Angelos persuaded the crusaders to restore his deposed father to the throne and in payment would help them in their goal of taking Jerusalem.
They did what he asked but Alexios backed out of the deal so the Crusaders then sacked the city instead and instituted the short lived Latin Empire.

Or the fourth crusade which was supposed to go to Jerusalem and then onto Egypt but they got lost and just thought “fuck it, well capture Constantinople instead”
- Comment on AI is not bad for the environment in comparison with many other regular activities. 1 week ago:
So ChatGPT isn’t as polluting as the beef industry, what’s your point? We can go on asking for LLMs to make pictures of big tiddy anime girls and the answers to simple questions that it still gets wrong because people eat meat still?
Just like bitcoin and all the other pump and dump cryptos, LLM chatbots created a market that didn’t exist before that needlessly adds excess pollution (and to be clear, I agree with OPs primary point that the environmental impact isn’t the worst thing about them), and they’re trying to force them into every aspect of our lives whether they’re suited to it or not.
Highlighting the environmental (and commercial, social and privacy) concerns is one tool to get policy makers to maybe think twice about signing another huge deal to get ChatGPT embedded in yet another part of our lives.
- Comment on AI is not bad for the environment in comparison with many other regular activities. 1 week ago:
By your numbers 1 prompt generates 3g of CO~2~
ChatGPT says they handle 2.5billion prompts per day.
That’s 7,500 tonnes of CO~2~ per day from ChatGPT alone. The vast majority of those are completely pointless queries.
Your point is spurious at best and misleading at worst.
