That’s a nice ICE vehicle, would be a shame if its windows were smashed and its tires punctured…
It’s not hard to cause a lot of inconvenience with a little effort in a nonviolent way.

They raise the barrier of entry for creating spam accounts from “make a bunch of API calls” to “set up some kind of AI captcha solver/pay someone in India to do it for you.” It doesn’t stop spammers, but it makes it harder for them.
I’ve had a great experience here on fedia.io. It’s a smaller instance, and it is running Mbin instead of Lemmy, but everything federates over so you get the same content. Might feel a bit weird switching from Lemmy, but if you feel like it I’d recommend giving it a try. :)
We’re also defederated from Hexbear, lemmy.ml, and Lemmygrad if that’s a factor.
Nothing at all. That’s why we have captchas.
For the first problem, just use a throwaway email service (I like temp-mail.org) to make your account.
You’re right! Let’s say we have two dice:
D₁ is fair and has a 1/6 probability of rolling each number from 1-6.
D₂ is weighted, with probabilities P₁, P₂, P₃, P₄, P₅, P₆ to roll each number.
We roll D₁, and get a number with the following probability distribution:
1: 1/6
2: 1/6
3: 1/6
4: 1/6
5: 1/6
6: 1/6
We roll D₂, and get a number with the following probability distribution:
1: P₁
2: P₂
3: P₃
4: P₄
5: P₅
6: P₆
We find the probabilities of every combination of rolls that yields a 7:
1+6: 1/6 P₁
2+5: 1/6 P₂
3+4: 1/6 P₃
4+3: 1/6 P₄
5+2: 1/6 P₅
6+1: 1/6 P₆
Adding these together to get the total probability of rolling a 7, we get 1/6 (P₁ + P₂ + P₃ + P₄ + P₅ + P₆). Since the probabilities of rolling each number must sum to 1, we get a probability of 1/6 to roll a 7, and your gut is right. :)
7 is the only number where this property holds. Other numbers will have a probability dependent on the weighting of the die, which could be calculated with a similar method.
Don’t use sketchy VPN apps, at all. The fact that they’re Chinese owned is irrelevant.
Committing crimes? Chemical burns to the fingers makes it harder to catch you!
Do women need an app for this? Surely a piece of paper would work just as well, and have a 0% chance of selling your data.
Edit: Yeah I deserve that.
If emissions dropped to 0 tonight, we would be substantially better off than if we maintain our current trajectory. Doomerism helps nobody.
EVs powered by fossil fuels still result in less emissions than ICE vehicles, since the big turbines in power plants are more efficient than the tiny engine in a car. But walking or taking public transportation is of course a lot better than both.
People have been cheating on their homework as long as homework has existed. AI is just the latest method to do so. It’s easier to cheat with than previous methods, but that’s been true for every new method of cheating.
I was wondering what the OP was talking about since I use the app pretty frequently and haven’t had to make an account. Guess that clears it up; I won’t be updating it in the future.
That seems like it would violate the law of entropy by turning a high entropy state (water vapor mixed into the air) into a lower entropy state (water in liquid form), but I’m probably just missing something.
Might be a bit of an unpopular opinion, but I don’t really see a problem with brain implants. I wouldn’t put anything in my brain in a thousand years, but if someone’s willing to accept the risks, why not? They have the potential to significantly improve quality of life for many people.
I can’t imagine this would be effective at all. Assuming it uses GPS, big datacenters could simply spoof the GPS signal, and consumers could block the GPU from receiving the signal (a fully metal PC case is almost a Faraday cage already).
Yep, not arguing for the use of generative AI in the slightest. I very rarely use it myself.
Do deepfake explicit images created from a non-explicit image actually qualify as CSAM?
