It's almost like making the effort to learn a thing teaches you more about it than just asking the closest idiot to tell you what they think about the subject and copying that down
Relying on ChatGPT to teach you about a topic leaves you with shallower knowledge than Googling and reading about it, according to new research that compared what more than 10,000 people knew after using one method or the other.

If you use GMail, AI (Gemini) was turned on yesterday by default and now scans all of your content for machine learning. To turn off, go to Settings>General and scroll down. Uncheck the box for "Smart features."

There's other "Smart" add-ons as well, but that's the one that reads your content.

Can you give this a boost to help some poorly kitties? The Society for Abandoned Animals is where I adopted my cats Merlin & Juno from many years ago.

it's weird to live in a world where a new 'worst thing you've ever imagined' happens at least a few times a month and it's easy to let it all run together and just sort of wash over you and go totally numb to all of it so you don't freak out because you still have to do laundry and go to work.

Policing women on their femininity is not good.

In the '80s, as an activist my hair was short.

It made sense, living in a peace camp with only cold water to wash in, and it meant police couldn't twist my hair when arresting me

I was challenged in women's public toilets.

It's not a nice feeling.
