At some point we need to start criminalizing shit like this and actually holding people accountable.

Worked for me, but I couldn’t include any names or swearing.

Yeah the artist I went to made my idea theirs in a way that I didn’t really like, and they honestly didn’t execute very well either.

Over time even I don’t like the idea I had then that much, but now i also get to dislike the artists version of it even more.

I’ve thought about getting it laser removed, but I think that might create a glaring blank space on a heavily freckled arm by removing the freckles.

I’ve thought about getting a coverup, and might, but that doesn’t make short sleeves any more accessible in professional situations. And whether it’s right or wrong for someone to be influenced in that environment by me having a tattoo, it’s real.

It’s unique and would concretely identify me so I’m not sharing it. But it harms my ability to manage first impressions sometimes and makes warmer weather less comfortable for me when I’m in short sleeves.

Yes. I have a large tattoo on one of my arms that I wish I didn’t have.

It’s not offensive or anything like that, it’s just…. Kind of a statement piece about something I cared about then and kind of just don’t now.

The natural outcome of making jobs easier in a profit driven business model is to either add more work or reduce the number of workers.

I don’t think Mario can do it.

The sounds of long running appliances in the background like a dishwasher, or clothes dryer.

Be still my heart

Agreed, it’s not completely devoid of value, but it’s definitely not saving me any super meaningful time.

There’s some labor efficiency but I would be really surprised if it even got to an hour a week in productivity gains.

I have copilot at work and honestly it’s not worth the price.

The number of times it has created grossly inaccurate meeting notes or summary items basically means I can’t trust it to be shared with someone who wasn’t there, so it’s mostly just there as a roll the dice memory jogger for participants.

The components embedded in office apps like PowerPoint are absolutely useless, and that’s where I really wanted it to help.

This is the buried lede that’s really concerning I think.

Their goal is to create AI agents that are indistinguishable from humans and capable of convincing people to hold certain positions.

Some time in the future all online discourse may be just a giant AI fueled tool sold to the highest bidders to manufacture consent.

One of the things I love about my Lightning is that it doesn’t look like a fucking cybertruck

None here, had never thought about that. Now I feel lonely.

Some days half my feed is PugJesus lol

Was that their expectation of you, or just a common religious interpretation?

I know plenty of people who use the term and have no care for the religious history of it.

Welp. I guess that makes sense. They have a much broader audience and utility than a gaming console. Probably higher margins too.

You know… as common as it is to label and group and classify people online, I just don’t think that generally works the vast majority of the time.

That’s pretty neat, but photosynthesis separates that bond without using heat right?

I went to kbin.social during the Reddit api exodus, and when that fell apart I had seen enough of lemmy through federated content to know that was where to go.
