Google AI Overview court loss in Germany could spell doom for AI search industry.
"Google AI Overview court loss in Germany could spell doom for AI search industry."
It fucking better.
Like to charge, reblog to cast?
"The court’s order—requiring a temporary injunction barring Google from spreading the false claims in any further AI Overviews—may have global implications, as the court seems to be the first to hold an AI firm liable for AI speech."
AI shouldn't be allowed to lie with impunity.
my goals in life? a little stone cottage in the countryside nestled within pleasant woodland with a quiet room to write and air that always smells like fresh bread baking, and there's an overgrown garden i can see from the kitchen window, and we never slam doors
Untold suffering of billions of people is the price that we pay to maintain the satanic fantasy that some people are better than others.
anyway sound off. at what stage do ppl think Han figured out the Force was real. the boring answer is after seeing Obi-wan vanish but i think he could rationalise that away as his eyes playing tricks on him. what do we think.
Let me demonstrate my answer for you:
That's it. That's my answer. Endor.
Please just take a look at Han's face right after witnessing 3po float. The man just had his entire worldview blown to smithereens.
that's so funny. that means he accepted Vader deflecting a blaster bolt with his hand as just something freaky government cyborgs can do, and stuck by Luke for multiple years as he tried to figure this Force stuff out, and just treated it like your friend getting really really into neopaganism to cope with a loss.
like yeah kid good job with the witching. i'm certain it will be more useful against your enemies than your sharpshooting. no i do not think your witchcraft is supplementing your aim but i'm not gonna argue about it.
yeah Luke was like 'I heard Ben Kenobi's voice in my head telling me how to blow up the Death Star :)' and Han was like 'kind of an unusual coping mechanism but I'm not gonna argue with him'
thanks to carbonite han not only misses learning about luke's training montage on dagobah, he's also half-blind during their whole escape on tatooine. luke's out there force-kicking henchmen with his gucci boots and doing flips and shit and han can't see a goddamn thing. now on endor luke's yeeting threepio with the power of his mind and han's just like 'the last time we hung out i had to stuff him in a tauntaun sleeping bag'.
@softness-and-shattering I hate you I hate you I hate you
99% of queer discourse stops right before they define the true difference between bisexual and pansexual!
FOR THE LAST FUCKING TIME
BISEXUALS GROW FROM THE GROUND
PANSEXUALS GROW FROM THE CEILING
This is the funniest thing i’ve heard my entire life 😭
Truth xD
This is literally me as a kid. Dad used to have the responsibility of giving out the well reports that came in on the friday night to anyone who phoned for the rest of the weekend. The problem was, on saturday mornings, he was doing the food shopping, so I was given a list of approved callers and he’d leave the well report figures by the phone.
Theoretically I was just supposed to list off the numbers. Except. Very early I started parsing the figures and give my own analysis. Apparently engineers and geophysicists got a bit freaked out by a ten year old going ‘It’s not that good, the flow’s really slow compared to last week, and there’s gas pockets really screwing up the flow in the east pipe judging by the pressure report.’
Dad still got that yelled at him at conferences: ‘This is the fucker who used child labour to do well analysis!’
‘Was it wrong?’
‘That’s the not the point!’
We found him- the 20 year old with 10 years experience
following weird horny furries who are into shit like pooltoys and transformation and stuff is enrichment. the vitamins and minerals of posting
once you get over your ass and realise you will never get some people and that’s ok you are basically immune to right wing fearmongering. otherkin? none of my fucking business
I must not fall victim to disgust. Disgust is the heart-killer. Disgust is the little-death that brings total apathy. I will face my disgust. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the disgust has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.
the casual ironic homoeroticism of cis dude gamers is awkward and i’m still unsure why they do it
In ancient Sparta they used to promote homoromantic relationships within the barracks because it was believed you would fight better if you were fighting for your boyfriend next to you
is this why dudes at the grandmaster rank on overwatch talk about blowing each other
You will never understand a warrior’s bond
It’s misogyny.
It has always been about misogyny. When you are taught your whole life that women are inscrutable, erratic, irrational, unknowable, fundamentally different from you, deny them interiority and ambition, shit on them when they climb out of the pit you put them in to stand equal to you - well, the outcome of that is that you cannot learn to truly love a woman.
But these men still desire love, and connection, and social bonds - so they turn to the only other people they see as human: other men.
This has been an undercurrent in civilization for millennia, and it sounds like an insane conspiracy theory any time you try to talk about it.
if you are going to need some kind of sedative for 4th of july fireworks for your pets NOW IS THE TIME TO SCHEDULE THOSE APPOINTMENTS TO ASK FOR THEM

I feel like to really get this circulating as it should, we need it superimposed over the picture of the turkey going in the fridge. (I can't do it I'm on my phone.)
With the 250th anniversary it's likely to be especially bad this year!
I cannot get this poem out of my head. It haunts me. Joyously, it haunts me.
This poem format is my favorite thing and this is the first time I’ve ever seen it’s origin story. I love it. Every time.
THE SACRED TEXTS!
I forgot the context! It’s beautiful!
this is immensely funny to me
When you thought it would be easy peasy lemon squeezy but it turns out to be difficult difficult lemon difficult.
Wait that’s actually really good, gonna pop this out of the tags
Not the citrus scale I was looking for but I like it
In one of my film classes last semester we had to tell a story in 3 pictures for a mini assignment so my friend and I did this
Happy 10 year anniversary to this post!
Tornadoes have a smell??
yes? like a... idk. Like when you put a candle out, but a little sharper, and heavy/brassy, and wet, obviously. listen i barely have a sense of smell, but even I can smell it. surely I'm not the only one, it must be strong if /I/ can smell it. I just don't have enough scents in my experience cache to describe it.
lightning ALSO has a strong smell just before it strikes, which I assume is a part of tornado smell. metallic and twangy. it clicks LOUDLY for a couple seconds, enough to get the FUCK out if you hear it with enough awareness to realize what it is.
K this does imply you have almost or actually been hit by lightning
Yeah around 10-12 years ago, shortly after I moved into my house, I was sitting in front of my bay window and started to hear loud, fast clicking. VERY weird sound. Activates the hind brain because let me tell you I was out of my chair ready to bolt, no pun intended, in less than a second and I do not move fast for love or money. Hair on my arms was all stood up like a balloon was rubbed on them, not like goosebumps. And it smelled like ozone, metallic and tangy. Watched lightning strike the ground maybe 10-15 feet from my window a few seconds later, and it SHOOK my house, I'm surprised the window didn't break tbh, it felt like it stopped my heart when it hit. Hands down the scariest thing I've ever personally seen, and I'm really REALLY glad I was indoors at the time.
The clicking sound is static discharge--when conditions are building to create lightning, there are usually a lot of potential static electricity paths in an area that could complete the circuit, and not just the path the lightning does take. However, when that main lightning strike discharge does occur, all of the other static paths (they're called streamers) also discharge (last entry here) at varying power intensities.
When I experienced it, I had just enough time to think it sounded like someone had thrown a hand-full of sand or small rocks at the window, then: boom.
yeah that's EXACTLY the clicking, like little pebbles hitting glass!
