…“I don’t like what people are saying about me, so I’m going to prove them right”? Lmao

That’s awesome. The Dreamcast was the first console I played online.

Ooga Booga was a great game, and would probably still be fun today if it had some players.

They get a lot of workers from places like Indonesia

I think the issue is that most people live in cities, where populations tend to me more diverse. Then most polls probably also end up disproportionately asking cityfolk. So the polls ask people who live in areas with disproportionate numbers of immigrants (relative to non-urban parts of the country), and they forget how many non-immigrants are outside the cities.

I’ve even unsubscribed from TX based content creators.

At least ask them how they vote, or tell them! Haha

You could have a list of Harris’ lies.

No one could compile a list of Trump’s lies. It’d be much more reasonable to compile a list of truths he’s said.

Do you ever write a comment and think, “Maybe I should’ve ended that one a little earlier”?

Man, I wonder how many people answering this question “need to” have coffee every morning

Fun, sure, but not an experiment that would actually be meaningful.

The data from your phone’s microphone doesn’t magically appear in Google’s advertising servers. It would have to go through a lot of steps before it gets there, and one of the first steps is in your home (if you’re on WiFi). One can analyze the traffic/data that leaves their phone.

It’s good to be cautious, but worrying about your phone’s microphone is potentially like worrying about your windows while leaving your front door open.

Yet again, someone mistakes an anecdote for evidence. And evidence is also not the plural form of anecdote.

I’m sure we have people here who are tech-savvy enough to have actually examined the kinds of data that their phone is sharing.

If you have something like Google Home or Amazon Alexa, then yeah, those would be sending voice data back, and yeah, they could probably use it for advertising. But as far as I know, there is no evidence that phones are “always listening” and “always sending information back” when they’re idle.

So if you were to get 5 cents per image, would you do it? Lol

Not so much when it comes to prompt images.

So again…you wouldn’t do it with your children’s pictures, right?

I could see some accents not pronouncing the L. It may colour the vowel, but not be a distinct sound on its own.

I’m Canadian, and we use a mix of British and American spellings, mostly depending on how we feel at the time of writing.

This is how I use it. So one could mold mould if they were so inclined.

A tool that allows anyone to generate countless images of CSAM in minutes (based on real images as input) is definitely worse than someone needing to spend years honing an art and using hours to produce one image of CSAM. I’m not really sure how someone could argue against that.

Haha thanks for taking it in good spirits!

Eating a room sounds expensive. Not just in terms of the materials required, but also paying for the aftermath.

It’s not about the speed in isolation. The speed is what allows for the quantity to be much greater.

Just like breaking into one car over night is bad, but breaking into 100,000 cars over one night is a problem of a much greater scope.

You’re definitely right, and I’m aware. The smaller the sample size, though, the more likely an AI art generator would create something that looks very similar to a given individual.

As well, some AI art generators accept prompt images to use as a starting point.
