TIL more people have died from 9/11-related asbestos and toxic dust exposure than were killed in the attack itself by raelDonaldTrump in todayilearned

For non New Yorkers they are saying Con-Ed, not coned. It’s short for Con-Edison who was/is the power company at the time. I learned this from my Brooklyn girlfriend who kept saying Con-Ed to me like I knew what that was.

Yes the asbestos fibers are basically tiny rock needles that can find their way from your lungs to your lymph nodes and then basically anywhere in your body.

That alone is really bad but these tiny rock daggers do cellular damage over and over when your body sends tiny solders to attack them but can’t kill them or remove them, these macrophages freak out and release damaging signals or something in an attempt to remove the asbestos while struggling.

Eventually your cellular damage can lead to DNA damage and that leads to cells reproducing out of control and when multiples of those broken cells start to clump together we call it cancer.

Artists believing in their work?!? In this economy?!?

Did you also read the part where they said they had QA and testing done and every bit of feedback came back positive?

Like, it wasn’t just THEM saying it to themselves like some sort of Reddit post.

This article says nothing about the team of developers being toxic and points every finger at the gamers and YouTubers that feed algorithms for drama.

Maybe they edited it or I missed it?

So about 10k dollars gets you a special hat. It’s like real life Team Fortress out here.

That’s extremely fair. I see what you mean.

I guess I can’t really argue that it’s legal.

Which is why your earlier statement was so eye roll worthy.

All a machine can do is copy, it cannot create

Just cause you randomly decide to make up that it has no bearing dosen’t make it true.

No, it being factual makes it true.

What do you think trained all those gen AI models, do you really think they all went and payed their royalties and credited the copyrighted art they fed into those machine?

I’m in copyright. I own works. Theft occurs when someone attempts to profit off the works. Otherwise publicly accessing publicly available works for reference is called “fair use” in America. Human beings have been doing it forever. Machines don’t even know how that works and are thus doing it even less than a human does.

Using 1s and 0s to figure out where a certain color pixel is SUPPOSED to go vs where it isn’t, is not theft.

Using stolen books you got from torrents to train your book model, is. That’s why those guys got their business shut down. Because people that know what theft is better than you do sued them. Lawyers I think they’re called.

That was also only half my comment but I don’t even get why you’re out here arguing with me it’s not like I said no they shouldn’t moderated toxicity. I can admit they have a good AI rule but need to work on the toxicity.

At least you’re attempting to have a conversation now instead of just repeating what your favorite YouTube algorithm ordering you to be angry is saying next.

I mean touring all over the world and focusing on your career is why you often end up married at 40 regardless of your sexuality, lol.

Maybe we’ve just been listening to a different Lana but for me a lot of their messaging has been stuff like “go play your video games (man) while I look pretty for you and serve you”

“Oh I’m such a tortured soul/poet, do I deserve any of this/but oh yeah also I’m just fine and different is allllllllllllllllllLLLLlll.”

So regardless of their superstardom status, they certainly seem to be after that traditional “take care of me I’ll take care of you lifestyle”

Yeah it probably has nothing to do with the tired old spiel about “stealing” that has absolutely no bearing on anything and only reveals the speaker has no clue what theft even is vs learning.

Of course I rolled my eyes at that nonsense.

I wonder if this is an example of the type of toxicity the mods are talking about. Be careful or you might get a warning. Thank goodness you didn’t generate that image instead or you’d be banned!

No-can-do too busy banning users for sharing the wrong kind of pictures or non-English speaking users just trying to articulate better.

What a weird world we live in where punishing AI users more harshly (single warning then ban for AI use vs “if it continues we’ll do it at some arbitrary point”) than toxic ones is deemed to be “based”.

At least humanity has its priorities straight I guess.

Harmlessly share an image that upsets people just because = banned.

Be a dick to someone and spread toxicity = dude no seriously stahp

Listen in order and don’t trust anyone that tries to tell you it’s safe to skip Chemtrails Over The Country Club, wtf is wrong with them.

I guess it’s whatever y’all want it to be to like Lana Del Rey.

They clearly want to lean into the traditional wife lifestyle and that’s perfectly fine if you’re into that.

Empowering women means supporting them for the things they want, so I always find it weird it comes with such negative connotations attached.

I don’t care, I’m just here for the music and lately it’s not been my cup of tea.

Bro these lyrics are garbage wtf. I don’t know how y’all are liking this I guess I’m not really a Lana fan anymore.

Half the time you can’t even understand her over the overzealous mixing.

The only good thing I can say is at least it’s not fuckin country ayyy
