    I prompted, edited (like extra ears, strange helmet accessories, logos being off), printed, assembled, and added/changed details once it was glued to a board.

    I've given up on trying to decide if AI images are mine. Otherwise, have at it.

  • ‘Greedflation’ study finds many companies were lying to you about inflation

  • I didn't need a study to tell me that. See, back in 'nam there were no studies, no lettuce, no cars. We did what we did and we knew what we knew.

  • Google Flat-Out Refuses to Bargain With Workers, Prompting YouTube Music Strike

    Jump

  • Well, its most of the normal music and then a bunch of pirated music. It's like YT music but with a better "Start Radio" button.

  • Google Flat-Out Refuses to Bargain With Workers, Prompting YouTube Music Strike

    Jump

  • Soundcloud might be an alternative worth looking into. For the music I tend to search for, I find I'm more likely to find it on Soundcloud, and it can take years to migrate from SC to YTM.

    While YTM and SC were both $10, putting up with the worse platform was a reasonable price for no YT ads. Now that the grandfathering is ending and the price is jumping to $14, for US folks, I'm feeling the pressure to migrate.

    Jump

  • Spotify has invested significant $$ in upgrading their platform.

    YTM lets you access user-uploaded content. With that comes more in the way of remixes and Indy artists. The platform itself is pretty dogshit, though.

  • Google Flat-Out Refuses to Bargain With Workers, Prompting YouTube Music Strike

    Jump

  • The article became increasingly redundant as it continued. The crux seems to be Google isn't their employer. These workers work for a subcontractor, Cognizant. Cognizant performs services for YouTube Music.

    Cognizant is refusing to bargain citing the ongoing relevant litigation* between its employees and Google.

    • I'm not sure what the legal process is called for union claims.

    Some of the employees are striking for 1 day.

  • New Vaccine Can Completely Reverse Autoimmune Diseases Like Multiple Sclerosis, Type 1 Diabetes, and Crohn’s Disease

  • It does make sense. And it is so so easy to get tangled.

  • New Vaccine Can Completely Reverse Autoimmune Diseases Like Multiple Sclerosis, Type 1 Diabetes, and Crohn’s Disease

    Jump

  • Agreed. I misremembered what the issue was. It's been a second.

    The issue was balancing risk of serious side effect versus risk of serious complication.

    Jump

  • Science isn't a religion. It's a process. Just because it's called a vaccine doesn't mean its safe. You can be anti-this-particular-vaccine without being anti-all-vaccines.

    (Edit - I misremembered what was hinky. For posterity, I'm restructuring my comment and preserving the bad take struck out below.)

    In the case of the covid vaccines, that process was intentionally minimized as to bring the vaccine to market faster.

    The vaccine did have benefits. It also had complications

    that instead of being found out in trials were found out after release.

  • "an inverse vaccine"

    Oh good, at least they didn't choose a name that's gonna cause confusion.

    TIL you can wait until you have the disease to take the vaccine. So if my kid gets polio, I'll give them the vaccine then, but I don't want to risk anything bad happening so I'll wait. I'm glad I did my research.

  • The summary did that thing like when FBI agents find a 800 TB harddrive containing a possibly CSAM photo and the media says they found 800 TB of CSAM.

    Did he take a conversation with a sub-18 year old to a sexual place? (or not excuse himself from an email gone sexual with someone under age?) I literally mean yes he did take it sexual or no he did not take it sexual or It was not clear from the messages.

    There is a difference from acknowledging sex is a thing and propositioning a teenager for sex, but at this point, I don't care. If you are a man or a woman, etc., just devalue the experience of younger people and don't talk to them. They'll be fine with it eventually.
