Signed. Let’s hope they get this conversion therapy shit banned.

Most of these memes are ironic, but this one is actually true. These apps could just be websites, but instead they’re bloated spyware

Crikey. You could run a marathon after that and still have a calorie surplus. Is this actually real?!

This one is so much better than the Dutch pride flag in the post. It’s awesome

Okay, that’s actually quite impressive

Hmmm, if this were in proportion to body volume then it may lead to an infinite cycle of the ice cream getting larger -> the body getting larger -> the icecream getting larger -> etc. Depending on the frequency of course.

I was beginning to think that I could go this day without any “joke” or remark that would exclude me from the group “men” because I’m not into women, but here it is. I was almost getting worried that it took so long today :/

Imo it’s more the other way around, but that’s not necessarily bad. Arch (and Linux in general) gives you a lot more control, while windows tries to block the user from touching the internals. In my experience Arch breaks more often though, but when it breaks I can usually fix it. In Windows things usually work, but when they don’t work you might be kinda screwed because the internals aren’t that easy to reach.

Shit, another existential crisis. At least I’ll forget about it soon

If BMW drivers can always drive faster in order to tailgate the vehicle in front of them as closely as possible, can’t we reach light speed by letting a few BMWs drive in a big circle with some space between them? Think about the possibilities here

I think these models struggle with this because they don’t process text as individual characters, but rather as tokens that often contain parts of a word. So the model never sees the actual characters within a token, and can only infer the contents of a token from the training data itself if the training data contains more information about it. It can get it right, but this depends on how much it can infer from training data and context. It’s probably a bit like trying to infer what an English word sounds like when you’ve only heard 10% of the dictionary spoken aloud and knowing what it sounds like isn’t actually that important to you.

This is how my mind operates and it’s extremely annoying sometimes. Most of the time it’s just funny though. Running across the house from chore to chore until I eventually end up right at the pile of clean laundry that I was cleaning up in the first place.

Imagine being able to walk or cycle to a store in a few minutes while also not being in some dense urban hellscape 🇳🇱🇪🇺. Hopefully the US will learn to build better cities someday.

Even as someone who’s Dutch this seems quite obvious. I guess it’s not obvious to English speaking people because shark is nothing like haj.

Uhhhh… yes, very much :3

You’re trying to put words in my mouth that I didn’t say. I do think it’s a good idea to stay at home while ill, personally I even wore a mask the first day after having the flu when going to the store. But right now basically everyone I know is having something, whether it’s the flu, COVID, or the common cold. You can stay inside while ill, but you can’t just stay home the moment you have some minor cold symptoms. Life goes on, at some point you’ll need to work and get groceries etc. We should take precautions, but we shouldn’t panic for every minor cough.

Once more, I don’t know the full context of the people in the image, so it’s very hard to say anything.

I mean, we have very little context here. But how I currently read it I’ll have to agree with the “No”. If you go to a party then you’ll obviously run the risk of getting ill with COVID or something else like the flu, but at the moment you run that risk pretty much everywhere. COVID, the flu, and the other viruses are no longer a threat to any functioning health system. They’re still a threat to many individuals, but that in and of itself is not reason to stop living your life. At some point we’ve concluded that the pandemic is over and the risk is no longer big enough to stop living our life. And that unfortunately means that some immunocompromised people run a big risk, but we can’t stop enjoying our lifes forever or protect a few people.
