I mean it’s fine for me, but if it’s broken for others I’ll just use this one then.

I heard that he’s an ethereal being from another dimension that has already faded away from our plane of existence so the police is wasting its time looking for him and should close the case.

Recently I’ve actually been wondering how the hell researchers manage their citations for big projects, because a while back I started doing some research on the Cass Review, stumbled on my own dick and accidentally ended up with 70-something disorganized citations that were a pain in the ass to clean up.
I’m definitely checking out those first two software lol

- Comment on Anon defends Michael Jackson 3 months ago:
But I couldn’t find a credible source for the “showing children pornography” portion you mentioned
It’s from one of the kid’s testimony in the first link (it starts with “Now, when you first saw the suitcase, where was it in that room.”), where he talks about how Michael showed him and his brother some porn mags. The first time he was hanging out with MJ while he was putting on makeup, and MJ picked up a suitcase with the porn mags and showed the kid one of the pictures. In the second occasion the kid can’t recall if he or his brother brought up the suitcase or if MJ did, but he says that they were all looking at the magazines together for “30 minutes to an hour”.
Regarding the books specifically, it’s one of those elements that on their own could be interpreted as just MJ being kinda weird. We know the first book was a gift given the fan’s inscription, and it’s fairly reasonable to assume that the second one was a gift too. As the blog post points out the third book wasn’t brought up in court and wasn’t with the other two books, but it’s still reasonable to assume that it belonged to MJ. To me the way the blog author tries to “soften” the book definitely points to some bias in their part:
The third book, that was confiscated in 1993 In Search of Young Beauty: A Venture Into Photographic Art (Charles Du Bois Hodges, 1964) which contains both boys and girls, mostly dressed, but some nude or semi-nude.
If we squint a bit we could just chalk these up to MJ possibly being a nudist or being a bit weird. I certainly think it’s odd that he had books with pictures of nude children in them, and even liked one of them enough to inscribe his own message in them, but if only the books were brought up in court I certainly wouldn’t think that’s enough evidence to convict anyone. But given the whole context and other elements of the accusations I’m not willing to give MJ that much benefit of the doubt.
- Comment on Anon defends Michael Jackson 3 months ago:
Definitely not the impression I got from everything I’ve read. The whole sleeping in the same bed with kids, keeping magazines with naked pictures of children, showing porn to kids (perhaps the most common method predators use to try to groom children), and the whole thing with setting up an alarm around his bedroom.
Keep in mind that a lot of the information I’ve seen was from a Wordpress blog bent on defending Jackson in any and every way possible, and yet I still think the case they make is not really convincing. The author speculates about what “true grooming” looks like, and why MJ’s actions supposedly don’t fit their personal expectations of grooming. They also try to justify him keeping those magazines with pictures of naked kids as if that was a normal thing to do.
Maybe if it was just one of these things it could still be justified as MJ just being weird. But it’s all off these things, a clear pattern of behavior and accusations for which the simplest explanation is that MJ was indeed a predator.
- Comment on Anon checks out mobile gaming 4 months ago:
A year ago or so I would have said Clash Royale
But now… nah.
You’ll find plenty of videos that explain this better than I can, but at this point the devs clearly hate the community, the game is more pay to win than ever, evolutions are completely broken and the devs barely care to balance the game anymore.
It’s pretty obvious that at this point they just want to squeeze as much money as possible from the game before it completely dies out.

I’ve seen some people on Twitter complain that their coworkers use ChatGPT to write emails or summarize text. To me this just echoes the complaints made by previous generations against phones and calculators. There’s a lot of vitriol directed at anyone who isn’t staunchly anti AI and dares to use a convenient tool that’s avaliable to them.

lmao no wonder something looked so off to me, the HD verision is even more clearly AI-generated, even more so considering the website it came from.
Interestingly enough even the larger image on the original website fooled most of the AI image detectors, with only one of them (isitai.com) just barely saying that the image is probably AI-generated, while all the others said with >90% confidence that it wasn’t.

Sometimes you have to use complicated terms because you’re dealing with complicated ideas…
Other times it’s clear that authors are just trying to pad the length of a paper and sound more pompous.
In Brazil we call this “enchendo linguiça”, which literally translates to “filling sausage”.

As someone who’s not too familiar with the bureaucracy of academia I have to ask: Can’t the authors just upload all their studies to ResearchGate if they want? I know that they can share it privately with others when they request a paper, so can they post it publicly too?
