What "LGB without the T" means
  • Whether or not you meant it this way, your argument has been used to downplay important social issues for over 100 years, probably a lot longer.

    I've heard "Why spend so much effort on X when people are dying out there?"

    Where X is womens' voting rights, Black rights, sexual freedoms, political freedoms, and religious freedoms just off the top of my head in the US alone.

    If you did mean it with good intentions and not as a debate tactic, know that we can work on two things at once. To use the US as an example again, most of those things I addressed were indeed improved and it's not like other things just fell by the wayside. We vastly improved food safety, workplace safety, hunger, infrastructure, etc. at the same time.

    So, Neuralink got FDA approval for human trials, and a certain fanbase is VERY excited about that
  • You have to drill or cut into the skull for plenty of medical procedures. I don't think getting a dime sized piece of skull removed at the crown of your head means your head explodes when you hit it on something.

    As for the charging thing, there are plenty of solutions. Wear some kind of headband for one.

  • They don't like the short top, her hair, or the tattoos.

    American conservative christians are generally anti-tattoo. They like things like long modest dresses, suits, clean short haircuts for men, etc. Very bland and conforming.

  • Ah see, the problem is you were looking in /sdcard0/ which of course, refers to your internal storage and not your SD card which is probably called /0xgg0gdjdsjgg/ or something.

  • AI Voice impressions are also getting very good, very quickly. I can convert a song to an AI celebrity cover in a few minutes on consumer grade hardware with a model trained on 15 minutes of audio. We will almost certainly reach a point within my lifetime, probably within 20 years, where you literally can't tell the difference between an AI actor and a real one.

  • That is essentially impossible. How are they going to pay each reddit user whose comment the AI analyzed? Or each website it analyzed? We're talking about terabytes of text data taken from a huge variety of sources.

    Anyone else feel like ~99% of their life was kind of wasted?
  • For a long time our goal was simply to survive and maybe have sex a few times. Now we're suddenly under pressure to "accomplish" things but not that many people are really wired for it. There's a reason some of the best creatives are weirdos and assholes.

  • Bandwidth isn't a concern if you get an unmetered line, and 10TB storage is only about $250. I would imagine they make decent money from tech, and find the service very convenient personally.

  • Some of them are great and can even make things less awkward for the other person. The "small error" one for example. The "I have an appointment" one is necessary when talking with higher ups in big companies who completely devalue your needs. But some are assholish, yeah.
