It’d only cost 10 billion if they went and picked it up in person.


This. Is. Democracy. Manifest!


That’s occupational re-education. That is a similar term but not what we’re talking about here. The re-education in question is when colonizers invade a land, kill off natives, steal their children, and send those children to the invader’s schools to be force-fit into their culture.

No it’s not. It’s not preferable at all, and neither are the other things. I’m against all of it. Your whataboutism means nothing to me.


In all of history, the use of “re-education” has always turned out to be ethnic/cultural genocide.


Why should they?


“It’s already done so might as well accept it” is the most fascist coded braindead bullshit I’ve ever heard about this whole AI thing since it started. Congratulations. Also blocked.


Minimizing the harm means not using it. AI output doesn’t come out of nothing. It’s generated at significant ecological cost.


Because this behavior shouldn’t be encouraged.


Anything but slop.


Or you could use paint.net and NOT support data centers destroying the planet.
The Large Hadron Collider is being shut down. Time to begin construction on the Large Daytron Collider I guess!


You say they follow science, but then do they hold that biblical miracles happened? Did Jesus literally turn water into wine? Did he literally walk on water?
The answer is yes, these are Episcopal doctrines. There’s some allowance for individuals to believe as they wish about miracles, but the claim of the religion is that they happened literally as described in scripture. So you can say they “follow science” but that doesn’t really square with claims of supernatural intervention, and the complete lack of any empirical evidence to back up any miracles having ever happened in all of recorded history.
If you claimed democrats ate babies, I’d ask you for proof. There is no proof whatsoever of supernatural intervention in the workings of the universe, and let me tell you: according to scripture, God spoke the universe into existence. If he were to reach in and fuck around with those workings any time, that would be a violation of his own word, which scripture holds to be impossible for him to do. Any Abrahamic religion that makes supernatural claims is, by its own nature, self-contradictory and immediately invalid.
I won’t bother going over the other criteria (which, again, are right there in my initial comment, listed out with question marks after them) because every single churchgoing sect of Christianity violates this one simple requirement: to not lead people right back into spiritual ignorance with religious nonsense.
Edit: Okay, I double checked and the criteria are in my first reply, not first comment. Apologies for the confusion; I was looking at context view. Here they are anyway: Do Episcopals make claims of a supernatural sort in opposition to confirmed facts and consensus reality? Do they have a hierarchical structure? Do they have positions of trust and/or authority? Do they carry out superstitious rituals?


My first comment contains 4 criteria. You have addressed one, and just going “nuh uh” doesn’t really count.


Good of you to show up and talk shit about… one of the many things I mentioned. Well done. Religion is still cancer on society.
Good. Fuck Claude. Fuck any company that uses it. I hope they eat themselves alive from the inside out. Stop working for companies that do this.
