The difference between Tumblr and Bluesky is that both will hit you with robot skeletons as a hear-me-out, but on Bluesky the debate is mainly about whether robot skeletons are fuckable, like, in principle, while on Tumblr the fuckability of robot skeletons is taken as given and we're merely dickering over which specific robot skeleton is the most fuckable.
Size comparison of Y’gathok, the Ceaseless Hunger and Bjorn, our level 20 Goliath Barbarian.
Hey quick question: why the FUCK do you have that
Imagine, from out of nowhere, your dm casually slapping this thing down on the table like any other encounter.
“Yeah, the fight will start in a sec, uh…I’ll give inspiration to whomever helps me get this fucking box out of my car.”

Please watch this reveal video it’s kickass
FUCK ME the reveal video
“CHRIS??????”
“Um, I don’t think our plan is gonna work.”

While neighboring wild reefs experienced bleaching rates as high as 80%, Dr. Nazurally's reefs experienced just as much in survival rates
From the article:
Organizations like the Mauritius Oceanography Institute, and the University of Mauritius, and Odysseo Oceanarium, now work to advance the science of heat-resistant coral breeding, and Nazurally’s success seen last summer is a testament to the progress the country’s marine science community has made. Odysseo has leveraged advancements made worldwide in the science of predicting spawning events to create a program of timing coral reproduction and collecting eggs and sperm from the corals by boat. These are then used to breed corals in protected nurseries, with those coral phenotypes that survive in warmer water being selected to reproduce. A study published by Dr. Nazurally in the summer showed that the hydrozoan genus (similar to coral) Millepora, when bred in this way, showed a 99.8% survival rate during the bleaching, compared to an 88% average rate across all coral genera, and a 10% survival rate for corals bred with previous methods and without a focus on heat-resistance.
*guy who has never heard of Hamilton* I don’t know why you guys are all shipping random founding fathers with each other and not Lewis and Clark who were definitely fucking in a tent every chance they got on that trip Brokeback Mountain style
*guy who just found out about Hamilton* haha no I totally knew you were talking about the musical, I was just joking. no, I don’t think about Lewis and Clark’s relationship as doomed yaoi. that’d be weird.
this is my first time in the pacific northwest. we drove through a forest so wet and foggy you couldn’t see the bends in the road ten yards ahead of you and it straight up felt like a horror game until we emerged into a sunny valley with a rainbow over it and then we went to a taco bell and in it there was a guy dressed like a hot dog and a guy dressed like hamburger. is it all like this
At least one member of the British government is doing their job.
In the vein of that comment about how Liam's characters would all be attracted to one another, for Luis's characters it's like. I think that Zerxus and Azune WOULD get along but it would be a MESS because immediately Azune would catch the vibes transmitted via Zerxus's inspiring leader feat and be like ah. someone who can give me Tasks and Jobs and someone who is worthy of my service. A chance to redeem myself for my failings and the others who have died to bring me here and also a daddy father figure to hold me to account. And meanwhile Zerxus would see this sad-eyed young man, who appears older than his years, and would instantly place him into his personal vortex of ginger-haired men in need of his protection and saving, somewhere between a proxy for his son and a proxy for his husband. If Zerxus ever confided the whole Asmodeus situation, Azune would NOT know what to say (he would make the autism creature face about it) but he would kind of get it. It would all be Complicated and Undefinable but Loving. Also ruinously codependent obviously. Paladin auras may not stack but something about these two's vibes definitely would. If they get within ten feet of each other a lethal emotional Event occurs. Do you understand my visions

rip to the guy who posted his very expensive yixing teapot to r/tea, only for the comments to be not compliments on his taste as he expected, but instead GREAT GOOGLY MOOGLY and I SHOULD CALL HER. he then crossposted it to r/gongfutea, which is ordinarily more dignified and self-serious, but was it? was it?? of course not, because this is reddit, and this was the teapot
Can we rebrand ‘girl math’ as being about the works of great woman mathematicians? ‘Girl math’ built the world’s first computer and put humans on the moon. The thing you’re doing where you pretend to not understand numbers is being an overgrown child.
‘Girl dinner.’ Julia Child would be ashamed of you all.
for the record im not technially 100% anti-AI, in the sense that its a broad category of tech being lumped under one umbrella term so it feels over-zealous to say i hate all of it all the time forever. but i also think trying to discuss what it actually IS good for is difficult right now when i cant take one step without something trying to convince me to use chatgpt to summarize my life and speed up my hobbies and turn my friends into chatbots and optimize my life into oblivion. i am certain there is nuance to the topic but can we stop cramming the square peg into the round hole before you start trying to sell me on the legitimate benefits of the square peg. please.
Neural Nets have existed for decades and are genuinely useful. It's a form of AI that recognizes patterns, and can do stuff like identify cancer cells, tell whether an egg is fertilized or not, detect fraud, and optimize routes.
Those are Expert Systems, tuned to do exactly one thing. If you (say) ask a medical expert system a question about financial law, it's useless. The autopilot that flies a 787 has no idea how to drive a truck on the freeway. A Coulter Counter is excellent at identifying lymphocytes in a blood sample but can't predict the next card in a blackjack game.
And so on.
The problem with so-called generalized AI (AGI) is that we don't have that yet. It doesn't exist. It MIGHT some day, but AGI has been "10 years away" since the 1980s. The goals keep moving as we learn more about how people and machines process data.
But the current crop of AI techbros have been selling generative Large Language Model AI (LLM) as AGI because generative systems do a good job of faking it. There's no actual thought going on, merely the illusion of thought via predicting the next word in a sentence accurately.
If you let a human toddler listen to 800 hours of YouTube car influencer videos, that toddler might end up sounding like a car influencer. They'd parrot horsepower numbers and 0 to 60 times, mention EV range and MSRP numbers.
But they wouldn't understand any of it.
That's ChatGPT.
And yeah, it's worse than useless because it doesn't even know when it's lying or hallucinating. It just babbles convincingly until you stop it.
But for techbros to make money selling that as "AI"? It's the perfect scam, especially if you don't understand how it works.
I fucking hate it.
i do think lobbying for data centres over climate goals should be considered a crime against humanity btw
sexism in medicine kills people. racism in medicine kills people. fatphobia in medicine kills people. queerphobia in medicine kills people. classism in medicine kills people. ableism in medicine kills people.
do not downplay people’s fears about being mistreated because they are a part of a marginalised group. it is a matter of life and death and you should be angry about it.

insane some people don't use ad blockers? babe why r u rawdogging the internet
it's a CESSPIT out there. wrap it before ya tap it babes!!!
the notes are insane
"im on mobile" adblocking exists for mobile
"im broke :(" ADBLOCKING IS FREE
"im lazy" i truly sympathize with executive dysfunction, but this is one of those quality-of-life things you need to prioritize. 3 minutes of research/installation will save you a thousandfold in time and energy. it can even help with brain fog (most people don't realize how much mental energy ads actually steal)
"i like ads" my jaw is on the fucking floor. you chose to live in a sewer, yet you will never be a ninja nor a turtle. you do not have a warrior's heart.
"adblock exists for mobile"
"Adblock is free"
That doesn't sound real but okay.
*inhaling deeply and reminding myself that Shaking The Baby only endangers the baby, and does not assist it to learn or grow* in spite of everything there are beautiful and important truths within this world that you must learn, and i must help you to learn
Adblock DNS is easy to install! Works for all phones! It works on most ads, but not video or tumblr.
Settings → Network → Private DNS, paste in dns.adguard.com
⬆️⬆️⬆️ Can confirm, I use this method (alongside others) on android. for iOS the steps are different (and it may be easier to install the AdGuard DNS app instead)
the above will decrease the amount of ads you see system-wide. however: hands down the BEST ANDROID ADBLOCKING feature is the ability to install Firefox with uBlock Origin enabled.
Install Firefox -> Settings -> Extensions -> uBlock Origin
this only blocks browser ads, but HOLY SHIT does that matter if you try browsing websites over apps when possible. which you should bc it's awesome and gives you SO much more control. E.g. blocks youtube.com ads and you can play videos in the background. works with spotify.com too
Pro tip: toggle on 'Desktop site' to avoid mobile sites that are purposely designed to bully you into using the app. Desktop mode fixes a surprising number of problems
Note: for iOS users this isn't possible bc Apple hates your guts, but there are other browser options with built-in adblocking.
i genuinely don't think there's much, if anything, hotter than someone clearly having a blast doing something they're really good at. doesn't really matter what it is. the combo of competence and joy is absolutely lethal to me
