AND don't you dare move an inch (centimeter in Canada)!!!ideaist - I had an MRI a few issue only to find out I can't surf till after I get a surgery god damn itYakuZoku
- My last MRI I admit I got a little claustrophobic and needed the little mirror to let me see out... wish every MRI machine was an open MRI.PonyBoy
- i fell asleep in it.pango
- They gave me headphones and asked what Spotify station I'd like. I asked for Radiohead and it played Nice Dream, then some Pink Floyd.fooler
- Its was pretty cool since I was still pretty high on pain pills.fooler
- first one i had there was a NHS poster detailing how much a single MRI scan costs in the waiting room. made me feel all fancy.. PELA PELA PELA... BRR TAC TAC TAkingsteven

Russia-Ukraine Invasion
like a renaissance painting
- Madness. And im getting bollocked off my missus for using a plastic bag or turning on the hot tap when i only needed a cold rinse.Ianbolton
- looks like an anti-madness to me when u get bombed 4 years nonstop by russians on civillian targets and u do a little push back..neverscared
- Russia don't make the sirens sound... suspiciously.Gabriel
- in mother russia, just look out the window. that's your sirens.pango
- i mean war is madness, Neverscared. I understand who the good and bad guys areIanbolton
- @Gabriel - because they know that the Ukrainians aren't going to specifically target civilians? A residential block did get hit today though, sadly.Nairn
- Don't forget to recycle, use a bike, get an electric car etc....otherwise it will be your fault.

I've spent the last year or so struggling so much with addiction and today I just feel bored and finally seem happy with that feeling. Like, I'm happy to sit and do nothing. At peace with myself.
- Cheer up Ian! <3OBBTKN

Today I had to interject in a work AI training session that no, the assorted attendees should not be using Copilot to generate branded logos. My design team will be designing all logos, thank you, and according to our brand guidelines, which the LLM mostly ignored judging by the font it used. To say nothing of the garbage it generated in the demo.
- sigh. welcome to our new hell._niko
- eeesh, i have a senior member of staff who's taken the initiative to schedule posts of 'industry news' on our social channels between our actual postskingsteven
- posts themselves are fine - but he's generating AI images (with some free image generator), posts are bombing. just letting him go at it, they must learn.kingsteven
- Later this summer I have a meeting with sr admin about how AI slop doesn't comply with our accessibility commitments, so please fucking stop.i_monk
- They will figure it out eventually. Got more and more people able to identify AI as they see it more... just get it all logged.kingsteven
- YakuZoku2
- Evyatar David was forced to dig his own grave, this is a racist troll account that should be banned.coldarchon
- wild they had to film their hostages fake digging their graves to create enough public pressure on the isreali govt' to enter negotiations for their release.kingsteven
- those vids show how they were all starving. how israel was digging their grave by not negotiating it cut from emaciated hostage to starving children.kingsteven
- it directly led to one of the other hostages who was filmed 'digging his grave' fathers cussing out the israeli govt, which was instrumental to their release...kingsteven
- but i get your point israel starving people is acceptable because palestinians did it too and one of the oldest regulars on this site is a racist troll accountkingsteven
- Racist against a political party? You are confused. Not all Jews are genocidal Zionist. Wake up.YakuZoku
- Funny how you group in all of the Palestinians with Hamas, while I separate the Jews from the Zionists, that's the difference between us.YakuZoku
- So who's racist again?YakuZoku
- btw that last post was sarcasm, the palestinian guy in this meme was starved and beaten in israel and died shortly after releasekingsteven
- its just mental to me that people still wheel out the treatment of hostages in 2026 when over 100 have died due to treatment in israel prisons and UN reportskingsteven
- have disproven most of israel's early extreme claims of their abuse (remember NBQ posting some of them here lol), uncovered so much worse on the israeli side.kingsteven
- Fucking wild that we have some nobody calling for a ban on moldy as a "racist troll account". Also thank you king for saving me from a lot of angry typing, lol.garbage
- so woman get better treatment?milfhunter
- That's Noa Argamani, she was rescued by the IDF in raids before they ran out of food in Gaza (several months before the hostage release was negotiated)kingsteven
- propaganda.ApeRobot
- ie. 245 days captive. the Palestinian here Farouk Al-Khatib was starved for 4 months in an israeli prison.kingsteven

Proud dads...
I've been worrying about compensating for my own domain lacking where my daughter's education is concerned, so had thought that a grounding in maths and logic and programming would be best.
But in this age of LLMs I realise that's redundant.
I need to focus on language, comprehension, composition of thought and the ability to abstract concepts.
I'm so fucking worried for her future.
- Teach her how to learn and foster a culture of curiosity then she will work the rest out. Maybe keep an eye on her self esteem and friend groups is my advice.slappy
- Oh yeah, I'm talking purely edumacational here, but I'm already seeing the self esteem issues beginning to peek through...Nairn
- ..but I've always been sure to enxourage that she engaged with friends as much as is comfortable, and not just focusing the same subset all the timeNairn
- Fucking mobile corrections.Nairn
- Have her learn piano. It’s great for activating all kinds of wonderful parts of the brain at once.monospaced
- I agree that in the world of corner cutters abusing ai to get through life, the ability to write well and expound on abstract concepts is critical.monospaced
- I bought her a wee piano years ago but she's not shown much interest. She's been learning violin, and I'm going to buy her a recorder this w'endNairn
- I’m so worried for their future. It’s hard to conceive of what challenges they’ll face or how I can even possibly guide them.monospaced
- What is it that she loves to do more than anything? That is the thing you raise her to do. This is a slow apocalypse — with more & more beautiful sunsets.tbgoodwillie
