Jojo, Lady of the West

Most AI porn I’ve seen looks like Eldritch abominations, but then I haven’t seen any for a while so maybe it’s improved

There’s the fact that the images he was creating were pictures of real kids. Deep fake porn is already creepy enough, add in that it was csam…

“a computer program with an ai function” what if he just used Windows, it has an ai function

It’s totally sexual assault.

But that amount of contact is assault whether it’s sexual or not. I just meant that it’s not like this was just catcalling.

Okay so on the one hand the secret police waiting to find sexual assault is pretty creepy, but on the other hand this is also just plain old assault, right? He didn’t just catcall, he grabbed her and held on while she struggled and cried out…

Edit: clarity

Putin puts out call for Americans to conscript and fight in Ukraine?

Once I parsed the whole thing it was, in fact, understandable. But, yeah, a few steps shy of “concise” I think.

When a politician from the Hard Neoliberal faction within the “Not quite as Rightwing but certainly not Leftwing” Party of the duopoly of power in Britain (which, like the US, also has First Past The Post and associated evils) comes with something like this, especially one who has a history of abusing this kind of accusation in the past to deflect valid criticism of her own words (just like Zionists - who curiously this Party unwaveringly supports - use the accusation of “anti-semitism” to deflect valid criticism), be very very wary of the honesty, goodwill and fairness of this.

What an incredible paragraph sentence.

A little mini sprog

Everyone who disagrees with China is also disputing it, that’s how dispute works.

I’d rather not, the dirt and rocks get everywhere and it’s just uncomfortable.

I agree that statement is formatted a lot like a straw man, but it was also a pretty decent reframing of the argument you made.

The case was made that Islam allows divorce and your reply was that “someone should tell the Muslims”

Government subsidy/tax breaks

Well now it is …

The book was kind of all over the place, couldn’t seem to pick a thread and follow it until halfway through, and then they kill off the main character and the rest is just lectures and moralizing? It had a fun bit at the end, though.

I think the stated purpose of Airbnb is fine, allowing people to rent out their homes for short term while they’re off vacation or something. I think the reality of what actually happens is pretty not okay, people buying properties all over and only ever renting them using Airbnb without ever actually living there and while preventing anyone else from living there

Movies have worse scenes than this.

Heard it here first folks, if it’s in a movie, it’s not a war crime any more.

I’ll say that I mostly agree, it’s good to be critical and sceptical, but I do think that defense is well worse than lukewarm. I’d almost say if you treat your prisoners anywhere near as badly as they do in most movies, you’re already well into war crime territory.

Almost as moral as the fullest void is full

It’s totally illegal right up until it suddenly isn’t squatting any more

There’s no way that doesn’t get struck down though, right?
