I mean, there were mass protests, they just didn't do shit.

Agreed, my first thought was about the stats for Twitch streamers where having more than something like 10 concurrent viewers consistently for a 30 day period puts you in the top 15% of streamers on the platform or whatever. I forget the exact numbers, but it's something crazy like that.

Can't be worse than the Tumblr algorithm banning photos of deserts as porn.

To go even further, in Japan they have a breed of chicken so clean that it's eaten as sushi. Here in the US, undercooked chicken or unwashed eggs are a salmonella risk - as is pretty much any other food due to contamination. There was a massive recall on lettuce a few years ago across the country for salmonella contamination.

No, but women are MUCH more likely to have their symptoms dismissed as psychosomatic compared to men. Odds are good if you're a woman that at least once in your life you will have to justify and defend your right to get proper treatment for a medical issue to a medical practitioner.

There's no guarantee that it will tell you the truth. It could tell you to use Elmer's glue to keep the cheese from falling off your pizza. The AI doesn't "know" or "understand," it just does as its training set informed it to. It's just a very complex predictive text that you can give commands to.

I came in here to say the same thing. It was pointed out that the USSR did this when Republicans first started with that nonsense, and it was my first thought upon seeing this post.

You have time to build a PC but don't have time to solder the boards yourself? Doubt.

One thing to note is that the next Xbox will very likely be more expensive than the Steam Machine, regardless of what Valve actually prices it at. This is because the Microsoft CEO is demanding that Xbox make a 30% profit, which means that they can't sell the consoles at a loss anymore.

One thing to note is that the GPU that Valve is using is apparently a custom one that was created for a cancelled Microsoft project or something, and so Valve is probably getting a better deal on it than we ever could because they're the only ones buying it off the manufacturer.

But regardless, anybody who is willing to build their own PC is not the target market for Valve. The target market is the other 80% of Steam users and potentially console players. A coworker of mine was just talking the other day about a friend of theirs who is replacing their PS4 because Sony is shutting down the PS4 servers, and they were telling them to wait and get the Steam Machine and get out from under Sony's thumb.

It's not really about the porn in the first place (for advertisers it is - they hate sex unless it's selling their product). The porn is merely an avenue to attack another minority group. In this case, LGBTQ people. Make everything about them sexual in some way, and then ban them from life for sexual deviancy.

Evangelical right-wing states have a huge contingent of politicians who compete with one another to be the toughest on "child sex trafficking" and other Epstein-tangential topics. So, in the GOP primary, you get a lot of promises about how you're going to round up all the pedos and put them to the sword or whatever. And this inevitably manifests as "please insert your dick into this pepper grinder to access the pornography" laws, as a sort-of practical compromise.

I'd say rather than a compromise, the "protect the children!" porn bans are an excuse to go after LGBTQ content by marking any and all content related to them as explicit and demonizing them as pedophiles going after children. They don't care who it hurts along the way.
