Yeah, what they're asking for is pretty standard stuff in other media. A friend of mine is an actor who played a scene where he had to shoot a masturbation scene. He was alone in a room with like 3-4 people: sound guy, camera guy, director, and I think the intimacy coach was there too.
Having a whole team watch you pretend to have sex is not okay, what the hell.
So, maybe?
I've seen some legal experts talk about how Google basically got away from misinformation lawsuits because they weren't creating misinformation, they were giving you search results that contained misinformation, but that wasn't their fault and they were making an effort to combat those kinds of search results. They were talking about how the outcome of those lawsuits might be different if Google's AI is the one creating the misinformation, since that's on them.
I know people IRL who get offended whenever I mention that I just block ads. Shit's insane.
Because American media keeps pushing the idea that the Democrats are "the left" and because Democrats oppose guns because the Republicans promote them, they equate owning a gun with being a part of "the right".
"Gentlemen, it's come to our attention that every one who could pay to use our product is paying to use our product. Unfortunately, it also means we're no longer growing infinitely like we promised the shareholders we would. How do we fix this?"
The infinite growth mindset is so fucking stupid. Like, you're still making an insane amount of money, what's the fucking problem?
My dad accidentally bought 2 chargers a few weeks ago. He tried refunding it, and what do you know, the company fired their support staff and replaced them with chat bot AIs. Anyway, the AI looked at his order and helpfully told him he had already returned the product and it had already been refunded so there was nothing left to do.
It kept doing this to him every time he tried to return the second charger, and there wasn't any other way to contact them on their site, so he ended-up leaving a 1-star review on their site complaining about the issue. Then an actual person contacted him to get it sorted-out.
This whole AI trend is so fucking stupid.
Should've hit her with the ol' ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
I've been thinking of quitting my current job.
It's got good working conditions, but a lot of the people I work with are so massively incompetent and don't give a shit that it makes working here miserable.
The holidays just made me realize how utterly miserable I am. So I've updated my resume and I've started applying somewhere else.
I come in today, and there's like a hundred fires and everyone's running around like headless chickens.
I can't wait to get the fuck out of here.
I don't really do New Years Resolutions, but holy shit my goal for 2024 is to get a new job.
/rant
Damn, that guy's fucking dumb lmao
But also, is 7c/fakefilter even popular? It seems to barely have a following on GitHub to begin with. Seems pretty over the top to claim that PM and SL (and any other provider on that list) will get blocked from registering on websites.
Some people are reporting it happens when your accounts get flagged by YouTube for blocking ads and that using a private browsing session can be used to bypass it, so it's possible this isn't a blanket thing?
Either way, they can go fuck themselves.
If you're on Firefox and using uBlock Origin (which you should), you can add the following to your filters list to essentially disable the delay:
! Bypass 5 seconds delay added by YouTube
www.youtube.com##+js(nano-stb, resolve(1), 5000, 0.001)
It doesn't fully disable it, just makes it almost instant, because Google has been doing shit like looking at what gets blocked to combat ad blockers recently.
Year of the enshitification, more like.
It feels like every company just decided 2023 was the year they finally pulled the trigger and tried to cash-out and bail.
I still don't understand how anyone here (or on the internet in general, for that matter) is still asking "Is Elon stupid? Is he a moron?" in response to stuff like this.
Elon's a jackass, but he clearly knows what he's doing with this. He's inciting political violence and then acting like it was an edgy joke as a way to give himself probable deniability. Dude's an asshole, but he's not literally brain dead.
