The bystander effect is mostly misunderstood and the way it’s depicted here is almost entirely myth.

You’re almost guaranteed to be helped by a bystander. Kitty Genovese was murdered where nobody could see after bystanders shouted at the guy from the building in his first attempt.

The writing was on the wall for proton for a while now

As of Salesforce didn’t suck enough as is

I know there is Loops, but it’s not open source or federated yet, so it’s not really an option.

You do realize it’s content like this that gets anarchism made fun of right?

NYC has the lowest crime rate of any US major city by a lot.

The preponderance of evidence. Most of which is in other comments here already.

Seed oils are definitely better for you than the alternatives, especially butter.

I love butter: but it’s absolutely worse for you than canola oil.

Veggie oils are totally fine and animal fats, while tasty, are definitely worse for you.

I still use butter in cookies though.

He’s not the one downvoting your irrational fears - I am though.

Downvotes exist to suppress dumb fuck takes like “seed oil unnatural”

He can be civil all he wants I’ll just tell you it’s idiotic and you’re listening to morons.

I pay $100 for my eye exam and $150 for my glasses every couple years.

It would take 30+ years for that cost to reach the Lasik levels you paid, and that’s assuming I’m not doing anything with the $3750 remaining after the first appointment.

Hachette is one of the Big 5 publishers at 10% market share. Penguin Random house (25%), HarperCollins (11%) and Wiley (not big 5 but still ~10%) were also in the suit.

Hachette, Penguin and HarperCollins are basically half of all books that come out.

This is exactly why usage analytics are important metrics…

I mean he specifically said prison labor for the “wellness” farms - like prisons don’t have inmates do hard labor on farms (I’m looking at you Louisiana with your fucking slave plantation prisons).

The idea of a place where you have to work the fields and aren’t allowed access to the outside world is a reeducation camp. He’s saying “you go there voluntarily”… Instead of a standard prison, which Republicans have done everything they can to make as harrowing a place as possible.

Go to reeducation gulag or go rot in a hole isn’t much of a choice, even if we smear it with the fecal veneer of “wellness culture”

I pay for services (including lemmy - support your instance leeches) and use an ad blocker for everything else.

There’s a lower cost ad plan for YouTube music is that what you mean?

I thought everyone wanted YouTube premium without the music. That’s the ad plan: it shows ads on music because you’re not paying for ad free music.

Yes but we’re also more mastodon less bluesky. If a bluesky-esque clone of Reddit comes along with better UX and paving over the issues of federation then it will win, the way Bluesky has beaten out Mastodon as the Twit alternate

PLA is widely used as a medical plastic and its normal decomposition is into lactic acid.

Even if it is just being atomized down into smaller and smaller particles it’s safer for you than any other common plastic.

The colorants added are the only risk

It is my understanding that the fundamental architecture (the general purpose transformer) is identical between the “AI” used by Black Rock and by OpenAI

If you have some evidence to the contrary I’d always appreciate the chance to learn.

But the transformer based architecture is fundamentally flawed: it will always hallucinate.
