Unless I use a tone tag saying so, my comments are genuine o7 I know tone can be wonky over text and im always trying my best to be neutral to positive to folks
we should globally ban the introduction of more powerful computer hardware for 10-20 years, not as an AI safety thing (though we could frame it as that), but to force programmers to optimize their shit better
I reblogged this like 9 times kinda jokingly, but software should be able to run on older and less powerful hardware, and consume less power on newer hardware. Like, this is a real problem imo
I completely agree with this but I do need you to understand that the image above is 32 times the size of the lunar mission’s memory
This is what the image looked like compressed to 4 kb
lot of terfs have been reblogging this so I may as well publicly state that the woman on the right is modeled with permission after my transfemme friend. if you relate to it as strongly as many of you claim in the tags I urge you to reflect upon that with empathy and compassion about the depth of experiences you truly do share with trans women.
otherwise fuck off I guess. my art is not fuel for your hatred.
Ragebaiting my fat dog? More like master baiting my fat hog!!!!!!!!
❗️Great Hog is displeased by this.
The kingly pig looks taken aback by this statement. “You claim to be ‘baiting’ our kind?.. A master of it, no less - after all the trust we hsve placed in you?”
- Your relationship with the Hog Society 🐖 is now Unfavourable.
Why does everything have to have a goddamn LIGHT on it? A few weeks ago we replaced the pheromone diffuser for our cats. It has a green led on it. Why? It’s not dire if that goes out. As far as we can tell it’s not related to when we need to change the pheromone bottle. It’s just glowing.
There’s a bright green bar on our big surge protector. A light indicating on or off is fine. But this puts put enough light to be a goddamn nightlight all on its own! The new modem has blinking lights to indicate connection on the back but ALSO a bright blue light on the front that indicates nothing but power! I can tell if you don’t have power by looking AT THE OTHER LIGHTS!
And a realted topic, the street lights that shine into my bedroom got replaced with LEDs that look like fucking cartoons the way the light pools below it and illuminates nothing outside of the 10 ft radius of that pool.
Airfryer. Headphone box. Fucking Cat water fountain.
I can’t have someone sleep on my couch if my guest room is occupied because they’re assaulted by 20 different colors of rainbow club lights.
Actually this time probably not. The writing was on the wall way before Reagan became president, and the steel mill closed in November 1981, barely ten months into his president.
He was governor of California during that “writing on the wall” period. He was the one writing. It was his wall.
Taking up Japanese as a side project for myself has reminded me of something.
So like a long time ago I had a professor that I absolutely adored. She happened to be Japanese American. She grew up speaking Japanese at home but never really spent a lot of time in Japan. She mostly spoke with other Japanese Americans and read books.
So one day early in her teaching career there’s an exchange student from Japan who’s having a hard time understanding a concept so she explained it to him in Japanese and then he looked absolutely rattled. Like in shock. Pale.
This is how she learned that the way she speaks Japanese makes her sound like a gang member.
Japanese doesn’t exactly have cuss words in the same way as English does but imagine that the nicest professor you’ve ever had pulls your paper over and says “Okay listen here you little piece of shit I’m gonna fucking explain this to you. Violently.”
I think the problem with American kids, is that a good chunk of kids would love that kind of professor. But. I do get what you are saying. The first time would be a huge shock.
