Are you sure it’s not what other sounds are occurring around the words affecting the sound? How we pronounce t and s can vary quite a bit, even in the same word when it occurs differently, with different sounds right before it after or even different stress placed on the word based on the context.
From an open source perspective, this is how things are supposed to work, humanity making progress by standing on each other’s shoulders… Of course they want the rest of humanity to help them, with government subsidies, investment from our retirement funds, etc.
Putting a piece of tape (perhaps duct tape, or electrical tape) over the holes will probably keep them from unraveling further.
Now they’ll have video proof that Jesus was white. And had 7 fingers.
The worst problem, to me, is that it pollutes our “environment” that is, our cultural environment, our pool of input about the world, with potential corruption, inaccuracies, at worst the intensification of falsities, stereotypes, and mediocre conceptions. Even if you don’t detect them in an AI image, they may be there. A real world image contains details that humans have not already preconceived, and diluting that with the bullshit of what humanity thinks is reality but which may or may not be, will have a greater long run cost than we can imagine.
No friend is acceptable unless they have no human faults!
Seems normal to me. At some variable time after I get up, I need to poop. I feel like coffee or eating, even drinking water, can encourage it, but even without those, it happens. If I try to repress it, like if i’m still working on making coffee and want to finish, it can become quite urgent.
What do you mean the vent is loud? Is the dryer so far from an exterior wall that there is some kind of fan apparatus to push the air there instead of a simple duct?
This and people tend to respond to cognitive dissonance by rationalizing / repressing awareness. I’ve voted for less bad candidate, now I’ll convince myself that was actually a good thing.
Maybe this one should be named altuwunative.
If you don’t because you think you have nothing worth stealing, consider that some joker can open your bag and set your combination to something else.
Just to give one data point, I bought a refurbished pixel 7 pro in 2023 and it is still going strong.
Is there any way for a community to disallow post deletion? If not, this seems like a needed feature.
Well honestly calling for using pensions and retirement savings to finance AI build out is pretty obscene.
I’m not in any way religious, and it does irritate me when people say, of some senseless tragedy, “everything has a purpose.”
But I do see, in your specific example, that what they say has metaphorical value. You should be grateful that you had it in you to accomplish what you did, even if you don’t attribute it to some mythical being.
I often think the phase “there but for the grace of God, go I” because I don’t know a secular equivalent. Think of God as a metaphor for the universe.
This will sound facetious, but I recommend getting her a cake she likes.
I don’t know if is too late to ask questions or do sleuthing, but if there was some kind of cake from her past she really liked that she hasn’t had in a long time that might be ideal. Like for my wife that was ice cream cake which isn’t as much a thing anymore as it was in our childhood. For me that is certain recipes my mom made in my childhood.
Their AI policy looks very reasonable, and they certainly aren’t vibe coding. Everything is rigorously reviewed and tested by a handful of experienced, competent humans.
FWIW they all sound equally ok to me. I never learned any of these acronyms, tho I’ve come across them on occasion, and if someone had presented any of the 4 as THE acronym for this I’d have believed them.
I don’t know if this would solve your problem, but I would try getting a pair of replacement foam ear tips for your earbuds of choice. I always buy the Comply foam ear tips. They come in S/M/L sizes and they make them to fit most ear buds.
I don’t have extra small ear canals, I just prefer them.
