America still has slaves, the constitution makes an exception for prisoners, which is just Roman style slavery again.

The issue is using the same kind of language as like "Person of Color", as if pedophilia is an identity rather than an illness.

If we truly want a neutral clinical name, we'd say something like "Minor Attraction Disorder". It's something that's only permissible if you are actively seeking help and self control like any other disorder that's prone to harm.

It's like an awful combination of a boomer making a flirtatious "joke" and the hyper nerdy language of The Big Bang Theory show.

So a tricky thing with LGBT words is they seem to vary around specificity.

Like people can say gay to mean gay men, gay people, or any kind of queer.

Similarly transgender can mean a gender identity not matching your biological sex, which includes genderfluid; or it can mean specifically a binary trans man/woman.

These aren't different valid opinions about the label. They are literally just different definitions for the words that depend on context. The words mean all of those things but usually only one in each context.

I know, I just felt the need to express my experience with him since he's involved. I wanted to show people looking into this that he's not a bad actor. When it comes to drama good things often go unsaid.

Yeah I love Foundry, but I'm convinced the DM needs technical knowledge to use it. I ran a server for non tech savvy DM and it was like working customer service.

With plenty of investment you can get the tabletop to be almost exactly what you want it to be, and for a popular system like 5e you can make it as automated as a Baldurs Gate game. You just need to download a lot of modules to get there and customize a lot of settings. Without that it just becomes a less intuitive Roll20.

And I must stress from experience, never offer to host/troubleshoot a server for someone else, especially if the DM likes to complain or can't handle minor technical setbacks.

I'm curious, is there actually so many 42's in the system? (more than 69 sounds unlikely)

What if the LLM is getting tripped up because 42 is always referred to as the answer to "the Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything".

So you ask it a question like give a number between 1-100, it answers 42 because that's the answer to "Everything", according to it's training data.

Something similar happened to Gemini. Google discouraged Gemini from giving unsafe advice because it's unethical. Then Gemini refused to answer questions about C++ because it's considered "unsafe" (referring to memory management). But Gemini thinks C++ is "unsafe" (the normal meaning), therefore it's unethical. It's like those jailbreak tricks but from its own training set.

Don't know if we're counting animated movies but I feel like the Spiderverse movies will be a timeless classic.

Adam Something made a video about these. Plants on buildings are actually very unsustainable and limits the greenery to those who can afford luxury housing.

Real eco sustainable city design has to come from tearing down superfluous highways and parking lots, replacing their need with public transport and walkable districts, then filling the empty space with plants or even communal food gardens.

Why not simplify by saying the Transgggggener class?

On a light note, I'm a slut for Bethesda, atleast I skipped Fallout 76 but I'm gonna preorder Starfield. I was 11 when Skyrim came out and it's very near and dear to me and I love some aspects of Fallout 4. ESO was also not bad and I play Elder Scrolls Legends. I'm seeing this through to the end bois ✌️.

On a serious note, I swear by never drinking alone or without someone I trust as much as my partner. Nothing bad happened to me but I have several negative experiences with drinking in my family. And technically my dad died riding a motorcycle drunk, but I don't think being sober would have saved him from that specific incident.

I just never ever want to be anything close to an alcoholic. I feel like I would get addicted if it was more convenient and didn't taste bad. Fear of addiction is also why I'm wary of gambling.
