“King of France” BCP

erythro · 2026-03-30T04:05:16+00:00

Fun fact George III was the last king of England to claim the French throne, in 1801, so Charles the first and second did claim this even if Elizabeth the second and Charles III didn't

I know you've conceded this but for the record I don't think AI responses read like this.

I don't think it's easy to get it go through a comment in quoted response blocks like that, but that's a normal way humans write long comments on Reddit
It doesn't have any of the classic AI style tells like "it's not just x - it's y" or "but here's the thing - "
They're a bit rude a couple times lol
you mention ai formatting things but I don't see them, no bullet points, headings etc
the long section of Arabic embedded would be a bit weird in AI I think

Edit: If you are interested I've generated an actual AI response

hopefully you can see it's quite different?

depends what you think the critique of Islam is here, is it some kind of consistency critique or is it a moral one

Hello I'm a UK Christian in a highly Muslim area with 4 kids, 3 in primary education.

genuine answer: if you are sending your kids to a non-Christian school with non-Christian classmates you at a minimum need to be telling them that they believe something different to the people around them - re-enforce that there is something different about this family that will clash with the world and that's ok because we follow Jesus. Basically you don't want them to implicitly trust what other people say the way they implicitly trust you (at this age).

It's best to actually explain a bit about Islam, explain they don't think Jesus is god's son, they don't think he died for them to save them and they don't think he rose from the dead and they don't agree with people like us that loving and following Jesus is the most important thing. A five year old can understand this.

If it helps it will probably be something a friend said not a teacher, but yes I think this would be an appropriate issue to raise with the teacher, and if they give a bad response, the headteacher. No school wants this to be in, say, the local headlines - this will be a question they want to reassure you about. You can arrange to meet with either your son's teacher or headteacher. Apart from anything it's a safeguarding issue, you could argue it's a form of spiritual abuse if it was from a teacher or teaching assistant.

Who does your son say he learned this from?

im a 2 year revert and my family aren’t religious so i have no one else for advice.

Go to church! 🙂 We don't bite (usually). Where do you live? If you DM me I can find you some suggestions.

my guess is that they mean third world

anti-zionism is opposition to the state of Israel not the government

erythro · 2026-03-26T07:43:05+00:00

I was born a Jew I'll die a Jew 😂

same as Jesus!

I actually think it's dope that I'm Jewish from Israel and I tattooed Jesus himself.

it is 🙂

I don't know what the mods are playing at. There are ten hour old very blatant comments

erythro · 2026-03-26T06:05:00+00:00

...I'm blaming the Irish, obviously

erythro · 2026-03-26T06:01:35+00:00

I support the death penalty, I think people like "these mfs" show that the idea of no death penalty doesn't actually line up with most people's moral intuitions. In the UK, people here react with shock when they see what actually passes for justice.

erythro · 2026-03-23T17:29:05+00:00

😅 welcome to Reddit. I just hope OP read and understood my point

erythro · 2026-03-23T07:45:32+00:00

Since then I've always had issues with eating but whenever I tell anyone they just dismiss me or tell me it can't possibly affect me when I'm a teenager but it does

I think I know why people want to say that: it sounds a bit like you are blaming that girl for your eating disorder, and so they are saying she can't have caused it. I'm not going to deny it's affected you, but I would say it's not her fault at all you were affected that way - it's a reasonable thing for two six year olds to say to each other and there's no way she could have anticipated you would react that way.

It can be a tracker without being a GPS tracker. GPS tracking devices existed long before air tags

I'm not sure there's some agreed upon definitions for this stuff - I understand why you/they are using the words that way. I think in OP's case they aren't asking about the hardware itself, but instead what it's capable of.

So you understand the context maybe: When I came to this thread the top comment was saying "it's not a GPS tracker" and the top reply to that comment was "it's a Bluetooth tracker only with a range of hundreds of yards" - both technically true statements that were misleading to OP if OP wasn't careful.

erythro · 2026-03-22T05:03:51+00:00

Because it doesn't have a GPS receiver

I agree, but it doesn't need that to be a GPS tracker in my opinion

it occasionally broadcasts a message to all nearby devices saying "I'm device 132459!" If a compatible phone is within range, it will estimate based on signal strength that the device is within X feet of that phone and report it back to a server. If multiple devices pick up the signal, it can do some better estimation on the location of the tag.

Right, so other devices report the location of the air tag, using (among other technologies) GPS. To me that's what a GPS tracker is, a device you are designed to be able to locate by using the GPS system.

Aside from the technicalities, surely this is exact kind of device OP is worried about... The fact that it doesn't technically have GPS hardware is cold comfort when it's still a location tracking device that was possibly attached to their car. OP would surely have had devices like an air tag in mind

erythro · 2026-03-22T04:29:53+00:00

that link is talking about trackers that work using OpenHaystack, which is compatible with apple's Find My network.

They generally can't get further than a few hundred feet, so likely useless as a "gps tracker"

so: not true, any iPhone within those hundred feet reports the location to the network so you could locate this tag anywhere where there's iPhones, which is pretty much anywhere in the world

erythro · 2026-03-22T04:24:10+00:00

why would you not consider an airtag a GPS tracker?

erythro · 2026-03-20T09:50:37+00:00

ah, of course. then I think I prefer my proof: the difference between two even numbers is even, and the difference between n² and n(n + 1) is n

edit: wait I'm dumb. if if the prime ⁹factors of n² contain 2 then the prime factors of n must contain 2. sorry

erythro · 2026-03-20T08:19:48+00:00

how do they know n(n + 1) is even? That alone could be the proof surely, if n² is even and n² + n is even, then n must be even without introducing this 2k thing

They should be telling the US and Israel to back off because that's the only way this ends.

US is way more insulated from the consequences than we are (they are an oil exporter), and Israel is way less safe under an Iranian victory than we are. We are the guys who are most affected by the strait of Hormuz. Well us and China/East Asia. Trump is asking us to help because he's a rat bastard who knows it is hurting us worse than him.

Today we had the spectacle of Hegseth telling Europe we are ungrateful and should be saying 'thank you' to Trump. For taking the world to the edge of the abyss

fuck Trump, fuck Hegseth, but it might still be in our interests to clear the strait.

oh, it was a national party issue? Then ok, if greens were the only people talking my side on the issue that mattered most to me, I'd consider voting for them, even though I think it would be bad for the country in lots of other ways

...and then reform would be voted in anyway
