- Comment on I grew up in the era of Photoshop and people would post fake nudes. Why is it now a big deal that AI is doing it? Kinda like the Taylor Swift thing on twitter. 3 months ago:
It was always a big deal. But back then it was often pretty obvious when it was a fake. It’s getting harder and harder to tell.

Fool me once…

I had a friend at uni who was a wandering drunk pisser. It was incredibly shit haha
Notable ones I remember are in my wardrobe and on my other friends laptop
- Comment on Gen Z job seekers should be willing to work for free, long hours, ‘willing to do anything,’ says Squarespace CMO 3 months ago:
Not sure how working for free would help with that though.
- Comment on Pi Day 3 months ago:
“widely understood” maybe in certain circles hehe
- Comment on Live Updates: Trump Is Safe After Assassination Attempt; Suspected Gunman Is Dead 3 months ago:
Not really. Just aim for center mass and get the job done properly. They’ve seen too many movies.

Play with a dual analog control layout like later entries in the series!
- Comment on Nintendo has DMCA’ed Sudachi’s GitHub 4 months ago:
They’d be going after them if they thought they could. I’m sure they’ll find a reason eventually.
- Comment on Nintendo has DMCA’ed Sudachi’s GitHub 4 months ago:
If a new one just pops up going after the previous one was indeed pointless.
- Comment on The theory that we live in a simulation involves simulants running their own simulations; wouldn't that require impossibly more resources for the main sim? 4 months ago:
Particles and waves aren’t actually separate as we were taught in school. They are in reality a third thing with properties of both.
As for detecting properties that’s a limit of our technology not the universe. In order to observe something we currently have to interact with it (e.g. bounce some light off it) It’s possible in the future we develop techniques that don’t require interaction, like reading the higgs boson field directly for example.
- Comment on What Android or Linux programs are the best to have all my email boxes in the same application? 1 year ago:
Looking online Hotmail supports IMAP, pop and SMTP. So you should be able to set it up.

Or people getting illegal abortions to hide it from their families.
- Comment on Ulez expansion: 45% fewer ‘dirty’ vehicles now on London’s roads, says TfL 1 year ago:
The problem of the massive concentration of pollution in London is being helped massively by this.
You’re talking about a different problem.
- Comment on Ulez expansion: 45% fewer ‘dirty’ vehicles now on London’s roads, says TfL 1 year ago:
Surely that’s the plan? To reduce pollution in London.
- Comment on Ulez expansion: 45% fewer ‘dirty’ vehicles now on London’s roads, says TfL 1 year ago:
It says off London roads. Which they indeed are.
London has an awful pollution problem because of its density.
The idea is to get them away from London which is what’s happening.
- Comment on Complaints about poor NHS dental services rise 66% in five years 1 year ago:
Pre austerity the NHS was absolutely top notch.
As healthcare is a captive market they tend to focus more on cost which can lead to worse outcomes.
Just look at our private prisons and trains.
- Comment on What does going to a mental institution do for you? 1 year ago:
It absolutely can help you with things like friends and work.
There are often underlying reasons that make it hard for you to make and maintain friendships or find a good job. Therapy can definitely get to the root of those issues.
Many people struggle with setting boundaries or saying no. Both of which are very important for both friendships and work.
Me and my therapist did a pre job interview session and we come up with some phrases and answers to use in the interview. It removed a huge amount of the anxiety I normally experience and I smashed the interview.
As for being institutionalised it’s a break from life. It may be to stop you hurting yourself or others. Or simply to remove some pressure from you.
