  • If the penalties are harsh for not attributing ai to an image, what’s to stop sites from just having a blanket disclaimer saying that ALL images on the page were generated by AI?

    Just like what happens with companies slapping Prop. 65 warnings on products that don't actually need them, out of caution and/or ignorance

  • No, mostly because I'm against laws which are literally impossible to enforce. And it'll become exponentially harder to enforce as the years pass on.

    I think a lot of people will get annoyed at this comparison, but I see a lot of similarity between the attitudes of the "AI slop" people and the "We can always tell" anti-trans people, in the sense that I've seen so many people from the first group accuse legitimate human works of being AI-created (and obviously we've all seen how often people from the second group have accused AFAB women of being trans). And just as those anti-trans people actually can't tell for a huge number of well-passing trans people, there's a lot of AI-created works out there that are absolutely passing for human-created works in mass, without giving off any obvious "slop" signs. Real people will get (and are getting) swept-up and hurt in this anti-AI reactionary phase.

    I think AI has a lot of legitimately decent uses, and I think it has a lot of stupid-as-shit uses. And the stupid-as-shit uses may be in the lead for the moment. But mandating tagging AI-generated content would just be ineffective and reactionary. I do think it should be regulated in other, more useful ways.

  • Makes thread asking if you should go to the ER

    Literally everyone says to go to the ER

    Doesn't go to the ER

    ok

    What I'd really like to know is, why are screenshots of tweets and such always so poorly cropped? Why do they all need to be 80% dead space vertically?

  • I use 160g spaghetti with an entire 14oz jar of sauce, personally.

  • When they plaster that "If everyone reading this donated $x.yz right now, we'd be done within the hour" message I'll usually donate exactly the amount it says.

  • gen z: Roughly the generation currently in their teens to twenties.

    dommes - Sexual dominants, as opposed to subs. Specifically female in this case, with "doms" being the masculine/gender-neutral variant.

    puppygirls - Dog equivalent of a catgirl. A girl who takes on visual and personality traits of a puppy to various extents, often as a form of sexual play.

    dogcage - Where you put your puppygirl when she's been chewing on the remote or peeing on the rug.

    rawdog - To experience something "raw", without any aides to make the experience safer or more tolerable.

    Translation: It's incredulous that young sexual dominants allow their submissives to use their phones while in their cage. It lessens the experience!

  • Cory in the House?

  • The headline is of course misleading, but not really for the reasons you pointed out. Nobody is going to read that headline and think it means 93% of gynecological research is conducted on men. Some people might read it and think it means 93% of medical research overall is conducted on men, though.

  • Literally none of this matters anyways if pennies are going, because making prices end in certain amounts won't work as nice in practice as it does here for the simple reason that US prices almost never include taxes.

  • Bold to assume I care about preserving my circadian rhythm

    There isn't a single hour of the day I haven't both fallen asleep during and woken up during at least once in the last three months

  • It is 33% if the answer itself is randomly chosen from 25%, 50%, and 60%. Then you have:

    If the answer is 25%: A 1/2 chance of guessing right

    If the answer is 50%: A 1/4 chance of guessing right

    If the answer is 60%: A 1/4 chance of guessing right

    And 1/31/2 + 1/31/4 + 1/31/4 = 1/3, or 33.333...% chance

    If the answer is randomly chosen from A, B, C, and D (With A or D being picked meaning D or A are also good, so 25% has a 50% chance of being the answer) then your probability of being right changes to 37.5%.

    This would hold up if the question were less purposely obtuse, like asking "What would be the probability of answering the following question correctly if guessing from A, B, C and D randomly, if its answer were also chosen from A, B, C and D at random?", with the choices being something like "A: A or D, B: B, C: C, D: A or D"

  • Here is an imgur album of all the images from the OP, for easier viewing - if you like one I recommend then downloading it from OP's link since I'm pretty sure imgur recompresses uploads

  • Yes but it's not hooked up to cable or the internet. I just use it for the Switch, or I'll occasionally hook it up as an alternate second monitor to my PC and play a movie on it. It hasn't been turned on in a few weeks and the last time was to be used as a temporary monitor to set up a new headless PC.

  • Adding on to the reasons others posted: Put yourself in his shoes for a moment. If you take off a year for him, that puts an immense amount of pressure on him. Pressure to go to the same school as you, pressure to go to school at all, even pressure to stay in the relationship.

    It's always gonna be "They made this gigantic life decision to their detriment for me, so if I change my mind about anything and want to do things differently, like by going to a different school, or not going to a school, or wanting to break up, then I'm a huge ungrateful jerk."

    Putting that kind of pressure on someone isn't really cool, especially if they're actively discouraging you from doing so.

  • Given the specific names on that list, I took it as an awkward attempt to list the people they think are standing up, rather than a list of people they were admonishing for not standing up

  • Others have covered that there were internal supports, so they were supporting nothing at all. But let's assume they weren't.

    I'm going for an intentional underestimate - so let's say there are 10 people in your layer (I think 8 is more likely), then 24 above them, 18 above them, 18 above them, 25 above them, 14 above them, and 2 above them. I think most people would agree those are underestimates for each ring.

    That's 101 people being supported by 10 people. If we take another underestimate that each of those people weighs 100 pounds (45.36 kg) then that's 10,100 pounds (4581.28 kg) - or 1010 pounds (458.13 kg) supported by each of the 10 people in your ring, completely ignoring the weight of the metal rings visible in the picture. So I think it's safe to say it was mostly the internal supports at work.
