Everything is catfishing, when you put your best foot forward or wear your best shirt or be funnier or cooler than you actually are. Same as couples used to court but courting is grooming, it is the modern world’s desire to terrorise everyone into passivity by demonising the simple everyday activities of life.

That is a great shot, probably marine erosion is more responsible for the geomorph here rather than wind or rain.

And the US by extension is becoming noise too, there seems to be universal domestic capitulation. Not much land of the free and the brave happening.

The last half hour of Close Encounters made mundane by reality.

Almost 90% of The World see Trump as bad for The World

It will look like a man playing with a dog, and we are not the man.

It was a quote from Norm Macdonald, comedy - look it up if German search engines lower themselves with such humourous returns. The Germans are what they are, today they fought against appeasement and led a European announcement of greatly increased defense spending to support Ukraine and the world more widely, a difficult and noble decision. Filling the gap left as the US falls ever further into shame.

I am not sure if you are a student of history but twice before the Germans decided to go to war and have as their foe the world.

I am not sure 1.5m Germans all deciding on a single course of action is something to be happy about.

That is exactly the point, LLM aim to simulate the chaotic best guess flow of the human mind, to be conscious and at least present the appearance of thinking and from that to access and process facts but not be a repository of facts in themselves. The accusation here that the model constructed a fact and then built on it is missing the point, this is exactly the way organic minds work. Human memory is constantly reworked and altered based on fresh information and simple musings and the new memory taken as factual even while it is in large part fabricated, and to an increasing extent over time. Many of our memories of past events bear only cursory fidelity to the actual details of the events themselves to the point that they could be defined as imagined. We still take these imagined memories as real and act upon them exactly as has been done here by the AI model.

All men can be educated to treat people with respect, to say otherwise is plain misandry but of course calling that out does not virtue signal quite as easily as misogyny. Every word of misandry spoken detracts from your case of misogyny because given freedom the genders are equally prone to those thoughts, understanding that is how it is removed from society.

Thanks that is a better summary, it seems to find a workable solution in better visibility which is not so far from what I said about camera surveillance. But even so the only real cure is improved and dedicated male education which I also suggested, nothing I said I thought was misogynistic but a certain sort of mind likes to ape words in a meaningless way. As to the paper I did think about reading it but then I thought about something else, my comment was on the summary.

What is interesting here is the downvoting my comments are getting, smacks of exactly the sort of pack mentality harassment Sweden is seeking to address.

I don’t think you know what misogynist means.

This summary is shocking, it just repeats that the place needed to be safer, so they made it safer and now everyone feels safer over and over but they don’t say how. From the banish part in the title I would guess they excluded men which is very sad and no real solution, the women are still just forced to hide, they just have a larger place to hide in. What is needed is male education and some way to neutralise the physical threat from men. Maybe complete camera coverage, it is a privacy problem but it would be a strong deterrent if prosecution was guaranteed.

I did not say the issue was Labour generated I said they are avoiding re-nationalisation, they could nationalise it tonight, do you think they will?

This is a difficult thing because in theory burning books is not illegal, a person is allowed to buy a book and burn it. So making it illegal to burn this specific book sends signals of Islamification of the law but context is important here. This book means very much to Muslims, not just in the obvious religious way but personally, individuals will remember their grandfather teaching it to them when they were a child. This makes burning it very emotional, it is like someone burning a photograph of your mother outside your house just after she died. It is true that burning pictures is not illegal but the context here is emotive to the point of incitement. It is not Islamification to view this book as a special case, it is about honouring beliefs you do not share and respecting other people.

I think other than Chile the UK is the only country in the world that has privatised the water supply to its population allowing large private profits to be drawn off what is recognised as a basic human right. Even most of the USA has not allowed corporations to be parasitic on its people to that level, and it is a Labour government bought and paid for by business that is trying to avoid re-nationalisation and that allows the water regulation body to be comprised of ex-water executives.

I was waiting in a maternity ward while my wife was having our daughter, the waiting area was surrounded by rooms filled with women giving birth so I had constant screaming on all sides of me. To distract myself I was reading one of the magazines they provided, an article on two women hiking in the Alps and I somehow managed to get a nasty papercut on my tongue. I went to find a nurse to ask for a painkiller and I was explaining to her how I knew she was busy and would not have asked only the pain was very bad and she just smiled and walked away. I thought she was going to get me a pill but she just walked over to a group of other nurses and said something to them and then they all laughed and looked over at me.

Yes but nowhere near enough to warrant the loss.

Would you take the death of journalism in lieu.
