Ah yes, the very real and reliable website we all know and love, the-independent

Yeah I’ve noticed that there are far fewer job postings these days than there were a few months ago.

This is a misleading headline. The survey question asked if you know any friends OR CLASSMATES who have generated AI nudes. If just one kid in a large school generates AI nudes and a lot of other kids find out about it, then those kids will answer yes on this survey. So this statistic doesn’t do a good job of indicating exactly how widespread this is.

Very mysterious. I wonder if she knew what the baggage room was for, or if she just wandered in there. Hoping we’ll find out more details.

I’m not into celebrity gossip, but from what I can tell based on people I’ve seen who are into it, I think it’s less about the celebrities themselves and more about enjoying gossip in general. If you and your friends are really into gossip, but you don’t have anything new to say about people you know in real life, you can gossip about celebrities instead. It’s just a thing you can enjoy talking about despite not having any actual connection to it.

Can someone please explain? What would cause VS Code to show an image like this? Is this related to a plugin? (I don’t know what a docstring is)

I’m 32, I bought a cassette at the last concert I went to. (I generally prefer vinyl, but I don’t wanna buy a vinyl before a show starts cuz then I have to awkwardly hold it for the whole show)

The two examples of misogynistic memes in this article are really tame IMO. It’s the type of humor that teenage boys have always had, long before the existence of social media. Don’t get me wrong, I definitely think social media algorithms are having a major negative impact on society. But I don’t think content like this is the problem.

Interesting, I didn’t know there were so many assassination attempts in the past.

What kind of trash tier journalism is this. Genocide is a real, serious issue. You can’t just call something a genocide metaphorically, that’s incredibly disrespectful.

I’m glad that the government is trying to address the issue of social media, but obviously adding warnings isn’t going to do anything.

I think the only way to actually solve the problem would be to regulate the recommendation algorithms to make them less addictive and less harmful.

Wtf is that thing next to Shadow

I think this will only strengthen his core supporters because they’ll view him as a martyr. It might push away some people on the fence. But I think the martyrdom angle and the increased media spotlight could pull some people back in. Personally I think it probably won’t make a difference overall. All publicity is good publicity.

Agreed. Also this law can’t even be enforced. Unless they’re just passing this law so that abused influencer children will have legal grounds to sue their parents. But we should be passing laws to prevent the abuse in the first place.

Valve’s game development division feels more like a weird cult than a proper game company. I don’t think they get “excited” for the things that most people get excited for. (Remember when they were excited for a virtual card game where you have to pay for every card?) The Valve of the 2000s is long gone IMO

I’m not angry, but I’m tired of live service esports games. Also the last time Valve arrived late to a trend (Artifact) it didn’t turn out well.

Can you please describe how you do this? I thought Github Copilot can only make changes to the currently open tab? It’s been a few months since I’ve used it, and I’ve only used the Visual Studio version, which I think isn’t as good as the Visual Studio Code version. Has Copilot already gotten to the point where you can tell it to make changes to an entire codebase?

I can’t wait for lab grown meat to become widely available (in my state at least). I think it’s really cool. Being able to eat real meat without harming animals sounds so futuristic. It’s one piece of future technology that I can actually get behind.

I just subscribe to Rotten Tomatoes Trailers
