  Using speakerphone in public is acceptable in one scenario: your phone’s normal speaker/mic is broken, you don’t have headphones, and a loved one is calling you as they’re dying.

  God, I just love soulless images built with stolen work by setting the world on fire and poisoning the water

  Oh, I’ve read this one before! The cocaine was so pervasive, they even found it in the blanks! Too bad publishing that makes the report kind of useless.

  If you really want to see something, and you’re sloppy with your blanks, an LCMS can detect anything you want.

  I could usually hear the gasp.

  Again, reading the announcement, it sounds like the advice the developer received in school was to use it. He’s realized now that it was a bad call.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A Steam dev is deleting his own game after girlfriend made him realize AI is bad⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  The announcement suggests the developer wrote all the code, but used the slop robot to generate assets. Sounds like the issue is that making art assets actually takes skill, and is something most programmer types underestimate.

  I usually don’t scope someone’s history because of one bad comment, but yeesh. You’ve been here for one day and it’s just about 100% bad.

  People who insist on alkaline water (and other such nonsense) deserve exactly what they get: no benefits and empty wallets.

  The charlatans who peddle the stuff, though. They can go right to hell.

  Basic science: there are conductors and there are insulators

  Advanced science: also there are semiconductors because of quantum mechanics and stuff

  Mad science: everything is a conductor if you’re brave enough
