LordPassionFruit,

This was with regards to Air Canada and its LLM that hallucinated a refund policy, which the company argued they did not have to honour because it wasn’t their actual policy and the bot had invented it out of nothing.

An important side note is that one of the cited reasons that the Court ruled in favour of the customer is because the company did not disclose that the LLM wasn’t the final say in its policy, and that a customer should confirm with a representative before acting upon the information. This meaning that the the legal argument wasn’t “the LLM is responsible” but rather “the customer should be informed that the information may not be accurate”.

I point this out because I’m not so sure CVS would have a clear cut case based on the Air Canada ruling, because I’d be surprised if Google didn’t have some legalese somewhere stating that they aren’t liable for what the LLM says.

LordPassionFruit,

There are other things that get self-censored due to filters. The two that I’m thinking of are “suicide” and “murder” (which a lot of people reword as “unalived” or “committing game over”).

Another one that I saw was a history summary channel I watch on YouTube couldn’t get monetized because they kept mentioning Hitler (in a video about the end of WW2) so they had to keep saying “the toothbrush moustache having Austrian man” to get around the censor.

LordPassionFruit,

Weirdly enough, I’ve never got fprint working on my thinkpad (albeit I’ve only attempted twice).

Both times, it works fine whenever I only set up my index finger. Adding my thumb (or any other finger) then prevents either from working, removing either finger removes both, and then prevents me from adding it back.

I have no idea why I’m having this issue, but I’m assuming I’m just missing something.

LordPassionFruit,

Simple. It’s theirs when it works and yours when it doesn’t.

LordPassionFruit,

I don’t think this will solve the issue OP is describing. They’re concerned at the existence of fascists on reddit, not just that they are seeing them. Blocking them all would be more like sticking your fingers in your ears and saying it doesn’t exist.

LordPassionFruit,

I know that XLOOKUP is probably better, but I just like my lil INDEX(MATCH) for some reason. You couldn’t pay me to convert (you probably could)

LordPassionFruit,

I hate how it seems to be a priority of our government to support Israel and that there isn’t a single party that we could elect who would actually put an end to that support.

LordPassionFruit,

Fun fact: According to our governing documents, the Governor General is the Queen’s representative, and King Charles is just fulfilling the role and duties of the Queen. Evidently, those who wrote is assumed Victoria would never die.

LordPassionFruit,

At this point, why even consider getting a Roku?

Note, I rarely, if ever, use a TV anymore, so smart TVs have never appealed to me. But Roku seems to be very anti consumer (between the forced arbitration and their ad policy), so I don’t understand why someone looking to get a smart TV would actually want a Roku over an alternative.

Maybe I’m just poorly informed, but it just seems like almost anything else should be a better option?

An article on the same topic from CBC, not behind the Saltwire paywall.

The province has definitely been taking advantage of Health PEI and it’s employees over the last couple of years, so I’m glad to see them standing up for themselves. We have two separate hospitals who frequently have to close their emergency rooms at least one day a week due to lack of staff.

Both are relatively small hospitals, but service the more remote areas of the island. As we only have 4 total hospitals, it is a minimum 40-minute drive from either of these hospitals to the next closest alternative

Edit: Made an incorrect assertion that I adjusted after realizing and added two other CBC articles relevant to emergency room closures.

LordPassionFruit,

Most people when something like this happens: having a rational discussion about what they think should happen

Me when this happens: incoherent screeching NATIONALIZE

LordPassionFruit,

Well there’s your problem. You need to get a cabinet.

LordPassionFruit,

I hate that it lines up so perfectly, and then is missing a single syllable following “linux”.

LordPassionFruit,

Same from eastern Canada. My happy place is around 13°.

LordPassionFruit,

I was 20km from the path of the totality. The next one I’ll even be able to see a partial eclipse isn’t happening until ~2045.

LordPassionFruit,

It was 3pm on a work day, so no that wasn’t an option.

LordPassionFruit,

Buddy, I have bills and the options were “see totality and lose job” or “see 99% coverage and keep job”.

LordPassionFruit,

You act as though I’m not bitter about it. You pointing out how great it was and how much it sucks that I missed it only makes me more bitter.

There is no job market where I live. As in within my friend group, we have collectively applied to ~30 jobs in the last year and gotten 2 responses. My employer was very clear that they were not giving time off for the eclipse, so that wasn’t an option. And had I just left, bye bye job. Can’t pay rent, can’t afford food.

If you want to point out how much it sucks, by all means. But don’t act like you know my situation, like I don’t know what I had to miss out on, and then point to fucking xkcd saying “see? I’m right”.

Grow some fucking perspective.

LordPassionFruit,

No no, that’s the IRS. They’re much worse.

LordPassionFruit,

And every old cock in the farmyard stock singing triumph to Sinn Féin

LordPassionFruit,

I assumed as much. I just didn’t want to make that assumption, not say anything, and be wrong.

Thanks for the explaination!

LordPassionFruit,

Boston

LordPassionFruit,

When I was a kid (primary school, ~2010), I watched a History Channel show about it with my little brother.

Back then, we just thought the “Boston Molassacre” was a funny name for a tragedy, so it’s stuck in my head.
