Reddfugee42,

That’s not how American courts work?

Nope. The court of appeals can find fault with the methods, procedure, precedent etc but not the facts.

(Also, that’s not how question marks work.)

Reddfugee42,

Can’t believe he wants to profit from his hobby. What a piece of shit.

Reddfugee42,

Okay, well have you ever used a dinglehopper?

Reddfugee42,

No no no but which one will make his BUDDIES insecure. That’s the kicker.

Reddfugee42,

Ma’am, welcome back. Also you’re a virgin.

Reddfugee42,

Wait so Google is putting ads in its services now?

WHY UNIVERSE WHY

Reddfugee42,

IF I WANTED TO KEEP WATCHING THE FUCKING VIDEO I WOULDN’T BE FUCKING SCROLLING

Reddfugee42,

If the “young activists” would passively or actively help Trump regain presidency, they’re terrorists that shouldn’t be bargained with. The grown-ups see Biden wary of losing Jewish support but still daring to broach the topic of Gaza Human Rights, words that wouldn’t come out of a conservative’s mouth in a thousand years.

Reddfugee42,

Was it highly contagious too?

Reddfugee42,

You can’t be genuinely curious by asking a question answered in the source.

Reddfugee42,

So you’re telling us you’re vegan.

Typical.

Goodbye Youtube and thanks for all the fish (infosec.pub)

Youtube let the other shoe drop in their end-stage enshittification this week. Last month, they required you to turn on Youtube History to view the feed of youtube videos recommendations. That seems reasonable, so I did it. But I delete my history every 1 week instead of every 3 months. So they don’t get much from my choices....

Reddfugee42,

Not all anything is good. That’s not how real life works. There’s only statistics. And statistically speaking, unions are the better choice.

“Re-re-reupdate: We may have made a terrible mistake…”

Reddfugee42,

I FOUND THE ANSWER, BUT YOU’RE NOT GOING TO LIKE IT

Reddfugee42,

Seriously. The intent behind copyright, which no one disputes, is that you should not be able to make a copy of someone else’s work that dilutes the value of their work to the point where anybody chooses to use the diluted version instead of the original.

Where in AI can it be even REMOTELY shown that someone is using an AI product where they otherwise before AI would have been inclined to purchase the original novel instead?

Reddfugee42,

Ah, so you’re in charge. Then you can unblock it 🤷‍♂️

Reddfugee42,

American fascists continue to prove their belief that property damage isn’t an acceptable response to murder, but murder is an acceptable response to property damage.

Reddfugee42,

The company has an obligation to find workers who don’t know their worth and continue to do more work without more compensation. Take the additional work, get them used to doing it, and get that raise at the next annual review, or leave.

Reddfugee42,

We speak the language and pronounce new words based on the past words of the language. There are exceptions but they don’t negate the defaults.

Nearly every single word in English that starts with a g followed by a soft ih/eh vowel is pronounced as a soft g, just a few:

gin gypsy general gerund Gerald gel gem gyp Geronimo gesture

In fact, there are something like 20,000 words in the dictionary that start with G and the number of them that are pronounced with a hard G where this rule otherwise dictates a soft G is such a small fraction of them that it has its own wiki page.

This video is a tad harsh for comedic effort, but otherwise entirely fact based and sourced:

youtu.be/MSJaSS_Zj0Y

Bottom line: you’re free to use a hard G, but it’s not the default pronunciation based on either all other English words or the creator’s intentions, and if you’re confused why others pronounce it with a soft G, they would seem to be simply more familiar with the English language 🤷‍♂️

Reddfugee42,

All you basically said is “nuh uh because my feelings” and then an appeal to authority who disregarded the following vowel sound. “But he’s a professor” proves nothing, let alone backs any sort of assertion that you or he are familiar with squat 🤷‍♂️

Reddfugee42,

That’s a funny reason to do the right thing but whatever works

Reddfugee42,

Not a single fragile regressive has ever been ahead of their time.

10 year Club, Multiple Awards, 17k / 24k gone....

I never really cared about upvotes and downvotes, but I liked that my comments and participation meant something to someone at one time or another. I liked that when I posted a comment or asked a question people could look through my post history to learn more about me and answer accordingly. More than anything I miss my saved...

Reddfugee42,

And it’s REALLY resource intensive and relatively expensive for them to do. EVERYONE SHOULD DO IT.
