...how often does ChatGPT use Dictionary.com's word of the year, "6-7"?

I wish I had a girlfriend like that... (Not really, I prefer people that challenge me. Maybe someone should train ChatGPT to challenge people.)

People suck.

Maybe they are just reading each other's cookies?

... and Meta _always_ strictly abides by their privacy deals! (See the number of times they have violated their consent decree with the FTC by violating the established privacy rules.)

Yes, I'm sure than Monsanto is champing at the bit to be the next Owens-Corning and sued into oblivion, which is why they're working hard to make sure that Roundup has to be removed from the market for safety reasons.

Do you people even hear yourselves sometimes? How do you say shit like this with a straight face?

If true, that sounds like pretty dangerous ground for an alleged scientific journal to be treading upon. "Who cares if the paper is accurate or not, we're retracting to make it easier for plaintiffs' lawyers to sue" doesn't sound very scientific.

Meta Pledge To Use Less Personal Data For Ads

One base pair from an uninteresting part of each user/shadow-user's DNA.

Actually, I like it. There just needs to be a local override that only the owner would know... say, a passphrase or some other code along with a key. That way, external events can not disrupt the normal operation of the vehicle. Yes, there is now the risk of getting kidnapped or otherwise violated to get that information out of you, but, no anti-theft system can be perfectly reliable while allowing reliable operation of the vehicle.

I tend to side with the defender rather than the aggressor unless there is indisputable proof that violence was the only answer. Ukraine is fighting for its very existence, which was previously guaranteed on paper. *shrug*

I would have utterly destroyed your world view if I were to have taken your classes. I typically finish tests very rapidly and I even know beforehand how many questions I did not answer correctly. It is hilarious turning in a test after just 15 minutes and saying that I had 3 incorrect answers out of 100. Watching the teacher grade it it and tell me I had 3 incorrect answers with a look of bewilderment on their faces is priceless.

It is not only wealthy people abusing this. I know of some families that work REALLY hard to ensure that their children are labelled a certain way so that they can get 'free' money from the government. The wealthy abuse it for future money, the poor abuse it for current money. All classes abuse and 'benefit' from this.

It is not that it is hard, it is that it is REAL. Reality can not be faked, explained away, or tolerate excuses. Reality is what everyone is trying to hide from. These are all mental games. Reality will not be fooled, only people will be fooled by these less-than-rigorous 'tests'.

In other words, by allowing these 'accommodations', we are bypassing Darwin and saying that Reality can be excused. That never works out well in the Real World (TM). We are fully corrupted with nonsense with so-called Conservatives leading the charge. WTF? Conservatives are supposed to respect/abide reality.

Maybe I am misunderstanding what you are saying. it appears that you assume the "computer" always knows what is "right", but with hardware issues changing the information at hand, there is no certain way to "know" which address is good information or bad information. The information provided is what is used.

So, the CPU, in a non-ring zero moment reads a memory address that has corrupted data in it while trying to write to "%windir%". The result could be a write to %windir%, but it could equally be written to the wifi driver's address space.

In other words, once the kernel detects that something within itself is incoherent, the ONLY safe thing to do is shut down IMMEDIATELY. Most operating systems have a "fail safe" to write one last message to the screen... but with bad enough hardware issues, even that can fail and end up corrupting your disks or frying other hardware with incorrect voltages.

Promise! We would never do something like that. It's all just testing the waters for suggestions, that's all.

There will be no more ads, just helpful suggestions.
