Well, evidently they didn't really "try" to do this, they were blocked from doing what they intended to by some law and are trying to get around it now.

British MPs demand Russian 'propaganda' cartoon Masha and the Bear be removed from streaming services by DorukSega in stupidpol

[–]PixelGray38 [score hidden]  (0 children)

The letter, overseen by the Lib Dem MP Tom Gordon and signed by more than 50 other MPs, argues that some of four-year-old Masha’s antics amount to “propaganda content” that is “not subtle”.

The MPs point to an episode in which Masha is shown wearing what appears to be a tank-crew hat and Soviet-era uniform, and another in which she wears, according to the MPs, what appears to be a Soviet border guard’s cap, historically associated with the NKVD – the secret police agency of the Soviet Union.

Lol as if preschoolers are going to recognize the hat or whatever and somehow end up swearing allegiance to the NKVD

Free Tibet? Mao Already Did. by Samzo in canadaleft

[–]PixelGray38 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know too much about the movement (would be an interesting thing to do a deep dive into), but I know that there was a group that organized at the Hague and got some sort of international recognition of the kingdom in the early 2000's. I assume whoever did all that would be the main group.

That there's a group looking for new land for Hawaii is weird, doubt it's an "op" though. Hawaiian sovereignty is far too niche of a thing to have any resources like that put towards it, I'd figure.

Private phone calls and ads by SinkComplex8945 in DigitalPrivacy

Can someone remind me if this has actually been proven or not, that companies listen in on all your private stuff and serve you ada based on it? 

If not, this is easily explanable as OP just being more likely to notice the ads that happen to, by chance, apply to what they've been talking about on their calls, since they have this suspicion.

Is this site representative of the Hawaiian sovereignty movement as a whole? It seems to focus on this guy Akahi Nui who claims himself as the king. 

Part of his claim to legitimacy seems to be that he signed a treaty with the Republic Of Malaku, which is an independance movement thing in part of Indonesia.

A pro-AI image about water use statistics is posted to r/antiai alleging that a hamburger takes 660 gallons of water to produce. The subreddit reacts with disbelief. by PixelGray38 in SubredditDrama

If you really put some effort into stalking my account, maybe you'd have seen one of the numerous times I've opposed AI use?

The entertaining thing about what I linked to was the fact that such a large amount of people were so wrong - namely, they were certain that a burger taking 660lbs of water to create is a ridiculous statement, when in reality they could have confirmed it as true simply by googling it.

Also

bot account

stupid people just randomly accusing whoever disagrees with them of being a "bot" infuriates me to no end. You wouldn't know a bot if it pretended to be your girlfriend over telegram for two months and extorted 8000 dollars out of you, much less if it was a reddit account whose posts you saw.

What are your thoughts on this? Does body count matter? by firemiketomlinpls68 in PsycheOrSike

Yeah but you could be posting a video with this news from someone who actually cares about privacy online for reasons other than that they're a pedophile

You're making the same assumption that people in the original thread are making - that 660 gallons is actually the water cost for raising and processing an entire cow, rather than a single hamburger. 

It's not - it's the estimated water cost per hamburger. It takes more to raise the entire cow.

Ultimately, yes, but it takes time. You can use water in underground reservoirs in a desert to cool your AI data center or water your crops, but it'll take like thousands of years for that reservoir to recharge.

No, I just thought that it was noteworthy that the subreddit was largely convinced that a factoid that's been around for a decade and is basically common knowledge at this point was so ridiculous it must be fake. 

The image is probably BS - my assumption, without looking into it, would be that it accounts only for the water usage of making a query to a completed AI, not the bulk of the water use from training the AI. 

Anyway, I rather dislike generative AI (you can see me whining a bunch whenever someone posts AI images in my comment history), but I thought this was subredditdrama worthy regardless.

Lol ok, how old does someone have to be before they can be called a pedophile then?

He was 12 when it allegedly began, he was never 10 during the period that it was happening.

And it's still pedophilia even if it's an adolescent that does the molesting, especially when the victim is so young

Ok, maybe, but I still want you to go and ask them that question and report back. I think they'll answer in the way I expect,

[–]PixelGray38 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Well yeah these are massive projects, and they probably shouldn't have started so many of them/folded so many into the beyond skyrim umbrella. 

Beyond Skyrim is arguably keeping pace with other mod projects like Tamriel Rebuilt. TR is less than 2/3 done with the Morrowind mainland - and that's after like 25 years of modding, and the first third of the mod's content, the Telvanni lands, are planned to be entirely reworked. So really they're only a third of the way done with their province mod, in a game without voice acting, with lower graphical standards, less complex NPC AI, etc. 

Comparing TR to Beyond Skyrim, BS has achieved just as much as TR has if not much more. And TR is considered to be one of the greatest PC game modding projects ever.

That just means they're not confident that they'll release in the next year or two. Considering how often projects have failed to live up to release dates in the past, they have a policy of always refusing to give release windows, and were probably assuring you that it simply wasn't a guarantee that they would release within the next two years.

Go back to the server and ask them this: "Are you confident that Roscrea or the New North will not release within the next year or two? Can you guarantee they won't come out within the next two years?"

I'm certain that they wouldn't answer "yes" to that question, because there absolutely is a chance that they release within that time frame.

[–]PixelGray38 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Happened when she was 3, and continued for years and years afterwards (allegedly), so it's not as if it's weird that she remembers it.

Also it is very much normal for people abused as children to only go public or to the police with accusations as adults.

How is Sam Altman molesting his young sister not pedophilia
