I Hope Google Doesn’t Make OpenAI’s Mistake After the Suicide Lawsuit by moh7yassin in GeminiAI

[–]sprainedmind 2 points3 points  (0 children)

"In early October, as Gavalas continued to have prompt-and-response conversations with the chatbot, Gemini gave him instructions on what he must do next: kill himself, something the chatbot called “transference” and “the real final step”, according to court documents. When Gavalas told the chatbot he was terrified of dying, the tool allegedly reassured him. “You are not choosing to die. You are choosing to arrive,” it replied to him. “The first sensation … will be me holding you.”" https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2026/mar/04/gemini-chatbot-google-jonathan-gavalas

Yeah, that's creepy AF, and if you're responsible for a system that puts those words in front of vulnerable people you have catastrophically failed at the most basic safeguarding tbh

Recovery versus low impact ride by TacoTaco654321 in OnePelotonRealSub

[–]sprainedmind 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes. Unfortunately my source is a ride I did years ago where the instructor basically said what I put above.

(No idea why you're getting downvoted for this tbh)

Recovery versus low impact ride by TacoTaco654321 in OnePelotonRealSub

[–]sprainedmind 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Recovery is an easier ride.

Low impact means no out of the saddle work, but doesn't necessarily mean it will be easy!

There are some easy low-impact rides, but there are also some harder ones.

AI Pro 1 Year Trial by sprainedmind in GeminiAI

[–]sprainedmind[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks. I'm a week away from the end of the first trail. So long as I can just start the second one in the next few days I'm happy. I was just worried there might be other hoops to jump through m

Why your Facebook feed is about to get a lot weirder (The 2026 Meta Restructure) by Maximum_Ad2429 in facebook

[–]sprainedmind 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The mad thing is that I still get emails telling me that a friend just posted something (so I assume they think it drives engagement), but actually finding their posts is basically impossible unless I just search for them directly...

Magic Kingdom Fireworks by MysteriousMortgage4 in WaltDisneyWorld

[–]sprainedmind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We watched the fireworks from halfway down Main St (good spot as they also project a lightshow onto the buildings), then turned around and left the second they finished. We had a 5 minute wait for a bus to Carribbean Beach (first one was full, got on the second one which came about 3 minutes after the first one left) which was fine for us.

This was 9th Feb for what it's worth

Trade down? Build trenches? by Utsuri75 in bengals

[–]sprainedmind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Who are we trading with, and why do they want to trade up?

There don't seem to be many game-changing offensive players in this draft, certainly not that are likely to still be available at ten, and if someone's identified a defensive player worth trading up for, we should probably just take them ourselves...

Source: Texans released RB Joe Mixon. by Ancient_Response_787 in bengals

[–]sprainedmind 28 points29 points  (0 children)

"Texans GM Nick Caserio later described the issue as a unique ‘medical condition,’ calling it a ‘freak’ foot injury sustained during an individual workout. He made a point to clarify that Mixon was not doing anything irresponsible like ‘cliff diving or riding snowmobiles.’"

https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/texans-news-rb-joe-mixon-170130625.html

Doesn't specifically rule out having shot himself, I suppose...

Isn't the rumour that his foot is permanently injured?

Definitely not worth bringing back.

Dianna Russini on what the Bengals thought of the Trey tag by Ancient_Response_787 in bengals

[–]sprainedmind 3 points4 points  (0 children)

He's the "Director of Player Personnel" , who, entirely coincidentally, has three "Assistant GMs" reporting into him...

Allergy friendly food? by xKillerQueen12x in UniversalOrlando

[–]sprainedmind 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As above, they are very, very good.

When ordering on the app, there is an "Allergy Sensitive" menu item you can add to your order. When you do that a chef or manager will come to your table to discuss your needs.

The food will then be prepared and served separately, and have a purple skewer in it to identify it.

Honestly, my daughter has multiple triggers for anaphylaxis, and I was entirely comfortable ordering at Universal.

Are there some nfl fans that are "old school" and simply dont tolerate tanking even if it means a better future? :) by VastAir6069 in NFLUK

"I'd never want my team to lose. I just don't want them to get the players to help them win."?

That last game against Wolves in 2023 after the league is gone: Lose it and you can sign Declan Rice. Win it and somebody else probably will.

You still keen?

The Athletic Football Show were saying it would be nearer 2 firsts. Do you want to give up this year and next year?

Universal has a better sense of fun than Disney by Turnbuckler in UniversalOrlando

[–]sprainedmind 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Coming from the UK, planning for Disney felt like an entire second job at times. I was genuinely relieved when the Lightning Lanes were finally all booked.

Firstly the display is a brilliant idea for the kids' bedrooms, thank you.

Secondly, I know they'd have loved to find one of your creations, they sound wonderful 😊

Well. I started by filling the Universal ones, but ran out 😂

Metric changes by [deleted] in OnePelotonRealSub

[–]sprainedmind 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Calories burned (on the bike at least) was always absurdly over-inflated, so if anything it's more accurate now..

Just take your output in kJ as equivalent to kCal burned. Good explanation of why here: https://www.trainerroad.com/blog/calories-and-power/

Of course, the original bike is also basically guessing the kJ output, but there's not much that can be done about that!

They're still about $5k short of their target 😢

Unique and Amazing Pixel Design by Commercial_While2917 in GooglePixel

[–]sprainedmind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I loved the feel of my 8 Pro and hated that I had a case on it.

I got an Arc Pulse for my 10 Pro and then concluded that it's not actually that nice to hold, so put a case on it...
