Hey! HEY! That is a vile insinuation! They’d never do that and also they only suppress votes for the other party and those don’t count anyway, so what if they do it when it’s perfectly fine seeing how they could never win if they allowed the election to be run fairly, and in conclusion, voter suppression is great and everybody should do it (except for non-republicans).

Wait, what were we talking about again?

Which oune wold yo souggest?

At least they can finally admit that they are not a car company.

Your mom.

Wait, that doesn’t make any sense.

Wait, it not masking any sense has never deterred anyone from making a your mom joke, so it’s fine after all.

Wait, that’s actually a pretty grim appraisal of the state of what is considered to be humorous.

In that case, I’ll go with my sweatpants instead, if I may.

Potayto, potahto, all depends on which reality you choose to inhabit.

These are called schools and universities and whatnot.

can anyone tell me how this space promotes equal opportunity?

It fosters empathy. There are centuries worth of examples of positions of power that were nominally open to men and women, but lo and behold, through some weird coincidence (most certainly not structurally ingrained and unquestioned sexism) only men were selected and hired while women were most certainly equally entitled to apply, BUT just in this particular case, the man was chosen for some reason - once again: not sexism. Coincidentally every single of those cases went that way.

This art installation makes it easier to imagine what it’s like when there’s unfortunately only a limited amount of space in the exhibition that’s nominally open to men and women alike and -due to some strange coincidence- the visitor ticket went to the woman who wanted to visit instead of the man (once again: certainly not due to sexism, but some other absolutely not sexist reason that happened to justify why it turned out in favour of the woman). Just in this particular case. Which coincidentally led to the same result as in every single other case.

Because it’s too expensive to crunch up a whole iPhone just for one cone.

Trump sues mirror for making him look ugly.

“Wouldn’t it be great if everybody gave my AI company money?”

“For doing what?”

“… I don’t follow.”

Sacre bleu! It’s almost like the free speech warrior does not know that the other aspect of free speech besides speaking freely is being able to choose whom to listen to! Does he think free speech means being forced to listen to specific people speak?

Surprised. Pikachu. Face.

Again: nobody is complaining that you can make AI spit out their training data because AI is the only source of that training data. That is not the issue and nobody cares about AI as a delivery source of pirated material. The issue is that next to the transformed output, the not-transformed input is being in use in a commercial product.

The issue isn’t that you can coax AI into giving away unaltered copyrighted books out of their trunk, the issue is that if you were to open the hood, you’d see that the entire engine is made of unaltered copyrighted books.

All those “anti hacking” measures are just there to obfuscate the fact that that the unaltered works are being in use and recallable at all times.

Every. Single. Time.

Looking at the TP with my functional eyes? I am skeptical.

I’m sick of these private corporations fucking over all of us repeatedly and NOTHING being done.

You misunderstand the role distribution. The American people are not the ones who are being protected from the big companies in the country.

They are the prey being offered to the big companies.

The companies have won. They are paying the legislation to provide a buffet of easily exploitable, squeezable unprotected victims. Depending on whether you need medical procedures, an education, or are just unlucky enough to be chosen to become labour in the private prison complex due to being the wrong colour, the companies are just waiting for you to fall into their respective web, at which point they own you, suck you dry and leave you to bankruptcy or worse.

Any first-person-shooter is technically a point and click game.

Mention the concept of a daily stand-up pledge of allegiance in schools in any other democracy and get laughed at.
