Well, I love catching and looking at shrimps and crabs at the beach.

Dragonflies look quite cool to me in general, especially when they have that green or blue kind of metallic shine. They devour mosquito larvae too, as a bonus. I live in a fairly wet area so I see dragonflies frequently, waterbugs too (if you mean stuff like nepa).

Spiders don’t bother me. Truth be told, where I live the biggest spiders must be tegenariae, they’re harmless and just run into hiding as soon as they percieve a threat. I think some spider species look cool, like the goofier looking jumping spiders, but I’ve not seen them in the wild, even though I believe there should be some where I live. They’re pretty tiny though.

I’ve always found insects (and even arthropods in general) at least interesting to look at. Some of them cute. This one, not that much, but still interesting.

Never really been disgusted by them.

You can technically wear that shirt too, if you want. Or any currently living being. So called “living fossils” are just critters that look arbitrarily close enough to some of their ancient ancestors to us.

They’re just as “evolved” as any other living thing today. Their look has just been a lot more stable through the ages than what ended up as Homo sapiens.

Seriously, Concord? Have some of these people been traumatized by its whole two weeks of existence?

Unfortunately for Neelix, Batman V Superman : Dawn of Justice has already been purged from all known movie archives.

At one point Netflix did a silly DIY tutorial to make your own socks with embedded remote. The idea was the socks would detect when you fall asleep and would pause the stream.

Maybe some of those could run Doom.

It’s a pokémon joke. In the first games there is a kid who has a very random line about his love for shorts, and since then they’ve put someone like him with a similar quote in a lot of games.

That would certainly explain it.

I guess the story they’re trying to push is “People intentionally use bad AI just to give officially supported, good AI a bad name!”. And that’s quite the ridiculous claim.

I remember a long time ago complaining about a shitty pattern like this (specifically, bombing your history by artificially making a shitload of redirects and thus making the back button useless. Probably the old school way to do this shit). Back then I was told by web devs “this is how the web works, you can’t have a browser detect and block this!”.

Fuck that.

Problem is not all of them were, and they mostly picked the less obvious ones.

Anyway, separating art from artist is always a tough call, but personally I don’t believe in it for people that are still currently alive and doing shit with the attention (and/or money) they get.

I can get into the Cthulhu mythos (especially as a foundation for other stuff), but I won’t touch anything from J.K. Rowling.

sabotaging their company’s AI by entering proprietary info into public AI chatbots, using unapproved AI tools,

This is counter-productive and can get you in big trouble IMO. I don’t even get what these are protesting.

or intentionally using low-quality AI output in their work without fixing it.

This is better and I think I would totally do this if management forced me to use AI. If they want to pretend using this thing is a better use of my time, I’ll give them what they want.

Fortunately I am working for an administration that has had rather tame expectations for gen AI use till now. They’re basically just like “experiment if you want, be careful and use what works for you”. So I just keep doing what I always did.

That particular person in here knows, because even if they didn’t before (doubtful) they were told, and then said they didn’t care because they’re “separating the art from the artist”.

Only thing I ever had to gut in school was fish, only once. And I was about 15 I think. Not too traumatizing.

I remember a biology classroom had a shelf with many skulls and skeletons of rabbits and other small animals though.

Roughly same age group (I think? early Y), and yeah, exactly that.

Searching has become a battle against the terrible AI answers that misinterpret and oversimplify one random result while making it a chore to find actual good sources.

And of course gen AI is also to blame for these good sources being drowned in an ocean of content farms, those shitstain tentacular bastards stealing and garbling information beyond recognition. Walls and walls of text saying absolutely nothing, or complete lies, on every subject known to humanity, feeding on themselves and replacing everything else.

Since she’s the one plugging her ears, probably because she’s currently trying to listen in the first pic, I don’t think this was the idea.

My initial guess, since the guy was kicking the booth, was that he had some issue with the payphone and pretty bad anger management. Well that last part seems obvious anyway.

Wow, I think Jucika is getting ready for a crossover episode with Everett True on that one.

Falling off the edge of a flat world and ending up on another literally happens to someone in a very early Discworld book.

In the Elder Scrolls lore, among other weird concepts, planets are literal gods and are not really spheres. they only appear so because they’re infinite and impossible to grasp for human minds.

What flat-earthers believe is at least as much batshit nonsense as that fictional cosmology that was specifically written to be batshit nonsense.

It’s no use. You can always try to hide it, we might have slightly fewer opportunities to use “slopilot” but we can still default to “microslop”.
