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.

This is honestly a huge part of why I taught myself to sew. Which I'm thousands of hours into, and it took a long time to get up to "acceptable for professional wear".
And I'm only small fat.

Top JPMC execs were in constant contact with Epstein and were aware of his shady financials. Top staff at JPMC, reporting directly to CEO Jamie Dimon, closely supervised Epstein’s accounts. One even coached Epstein on how to sanitize his suspiciously large cash withdrawals.

And as always, don't harass the bell ringers. They're often vulnerable people pressured into doing the SA's work or volunteers from other organizations who've been told this is a nice way to give back during the holidays. They're not the problem.
I know it's a tad early but I know those bitches with the buckets will be out soon. Don't gove them a penny. The volunteers may not know but the salvation army is no ally and actively combative and harmful to many queer minorities especially during the holiday season

Once again thinking about the greatest work of journalism ever written, an article that exists on a level of "every line is the greatest line ever written, until it is surpassed by the next line" that's only really matched by, like, the TF2 Comics.

Double entendre title of the week. This book is from 2005 and appears to be from a UK or HK publisher but I really think someone should have told them.

for me, it's not only that it's just unquestioningly repulsive, but that the character of our nation is so corrupted that many people celebrate it. it's just a thought that only leads to worse thoughts.
I don't know why the "Piggy" thing is bothering me so much. It's one more unforgivable thing in a list of 20,000 unforgivable things, but I've been mad about it for like 12 straight hours.

I really thought Cook and Apple were better than this. Gross. Shame. Fuck y’all.
Tim Cook, of Apple, is at this dinner.
The likes of Musk and Schwarzman—sure, that's who they are.
But Cook has been groveling more than strictly necessary.

Does anyone know of a Godot developer who might be up for a bit of contract work to help us on Lancer Tactics? I'm trying to get off of dotnet and to do so we need to convert its one line-of-sight algorithm from C# to a C++ GDExtension. Should be short -- just a few hundred lines of code.

Before WWII, the language of science was German. Scientific papers were published in German. International conferences happened in German. After the Nazis gutted research and exiled scientists fled to the USA, that language became English.
