huh, i knew they used bing under the hood but for some reason it didn’t occur to me that the promotions and ads would bleed through.

I’m not promoting DDG, I don’t use it either, just saying that they do provide a no ai version (currently at least)

Also note that no LLM doesn’t mean no “promoted” listings

Fucking what?

A Piranesi stop motion film? Based on the book?

Not necessarily mutually exclusive

Labels don’t matter, be happy

Anyone else seeing an older, rounder Michael Cera?

I wasnt suggesting it would be easy, in fact i think it would be rather difficult on both fronts.

My comment was more about the method by which this kind of thing was intended to be addressed.

I imagine this is a controversial opinion…but isn’t the idiomatic solution to this to either:

petition the mods to get this rule added and enforced

or

To start a community that enforces this rule and let it compete with this one.

Isn’t that the whole idea of federation?

Very possible i got this the wrong way around, or that I’m incorrect entirely.

Wasnt it so that it was easier for the woman to do up the man’s buttons for them?

Because, real men don’t button their own clothes.

Cauterisation with extremely hot metal works to seal a wound (and as far as upfront costs go, is cheaper).

Doesn’t mean modern medical care isn’t the preference.

smug prick.

I was going for sarcasm, but i can see the interpretational difference.

I suppose game recognises game.

“On this site, they are one and the same.” sounds like something a condescending, smug prick might say as an opener.

but by all means, tell me more about what everyone on this public forum thinks.

You mean to say that people on this site are claiming that individuals with publicly stated agendas and goals might possibly use the fiscal and/or reputational benefits of the organisations they control to aid in the furthering of whatever goals/agendas they may have?

Point me in their direction, i shall have words…big ones…like wherewithal …or extrapolation…prestidigitation…etc.

Clearly these people are buttering their toast with a teaspoon, seems like an incredible leap to me and i bet they couldn’t even provide a single example of this happening in the modern day…illogical plebeians.

Edit : more salt that I’d expect for zero actual counters

i’m of the opinion that if someone has done their best* ^[1] to consider the consequences of an approach and chooses to take that approach while accepting the potential outcomes, then that is an acceptable decision making process.

In some cases escalation might be a potential outcome and as long as the person understands that, then them choosing that option is their considered choice.

In the same way that freedom of speech* ^[2] isn’t freedom from consequences, freedom of choice isn’t freedom from other peoples choosing to act against you.

If you want to make what seems like a poor choice from my point of view, i might advise against it, but ultimately it’s up to you.

However, i’m also free to try and stop you if that’s what i choose. In this case i’m not looking to curtail your choices, but i am pitting my choice against yours.

Custom printed.

The front rack grills, keystone panels and thinkcentre mounts are from a website but all the other printed parts are custom.

i’m not utilising it nearly as much as i should which is why i haven’t gotten around to the failover cluster yet.

a bunch of ebay specials with more ebay parts scavenged over time + some 3d printing.

The centre tower has a miniitx mb and PSU behind those panels to run the NAS, and the drive bays are in the bottom.

The right is a failover cluster that isn’t finished yet.

If you reach 20 companies that aren’t ad-centric for-profit companies you can qualify for the false equivalency pro-league.

It’s up there with mental gymnastics in the bad-faith Olympics, a lofty achievement.

well. i’ll give you ad-guard , canonical is also making great strides towards ad-centric so that one too.

Or the avocado is bland? not all avocado are built equally.

I would hedge that the penis consists of more than just regular skin there is a fair amount of erectile tissue in there as well, though i can’t vouch for a scientific difference is the taste experience.
