Octomom, wife of Octodad

will require identification and photo validation

Straight from the book “How to kill your app before launch”, page 1.

data privacy at its core

Looks like they haven’t seen the obvious conflict with requiring id + photo, unless they plan on manually review every application.

After reading the article, it sounds like they’re just making yet another xitter clone with the hopes that govt figures will use it. Govts could just spin their own mastodon or similars for a similar effect.

Stupid name, vv, or vave would’ve been better. Besides, it’s not like they’ll register v.v as a domain, or even www.w.vv

Racionais MC and Marcelo D2 for PTBR rap, with the latter being more “hip hop with samba”

wish meta had torrented all the viruses, too, would be fun to read the news of “facebook and instagram are offline as meta suffers from cyberattack”

Tends to be as helpful as those windows saying “We are looking for a solution to your problem online”

I use Youtube. It has more stuff and most of the time, if you check the channel you can get a good feel of whether the stuff is AI - like several hour long “albums” uploaded only a few days from one another. Only applies to stuff uploaded after 2023

Huh, I’m slightly older than your dad. As for “how is a 36-year-old supposed to act?” - that depends a lot from person to person. I’m a fucking hermit who works with IT and hates corporate social media. A friend of mine from high school is still one that goes to bars and parties with his wife for both to drink, eat and listen to live music, both also often post to instagram.

Huh, I thought it was Skyrim

He shouldn’t have eaten all those sweetrolls

Despite being a woman, she managed to earn the respect of several nomad arab tribes, you know, those that see women as a man’s property? Those. To the point that, when she died, they all came to her burial and ensured she was treated like a queen.

artificial intelligence (AI) risks becoming a speculative bubble unless its use spreads beyond big tech companies and wealthy economies.

Oh, you mean there is a risk it becomes the thing it already is? Boy, imagine that!

The really funny thing is how he says that “the benefits need to spread outside the tech sector”. Golly gee, I wonder why other sectors haven’t benefited yet! Could it be that it’s not worth the hype and it does not improve anything that typical computer systems are already working on, like managing electrical grids, keeping track of shipments, avionics, etc? Nah, it’s all the doomers’ fault

Unlike llms, who will get all confused whenever you ask for a non-existent emoji, over and over and over again, instead of realizing that “there is no seahorse emoji”

Next step: use Microsoft Comic Chat characters for the project

Next up, from DDG:

“Oops, looks like we lost the data of the voting, so we’ll just assume YES won because everyone loves Copilot AI, which is the best AI and has nothing to do with us having a contract with Microsoft!”
