I assume the problem was the 'medically-prescribed' part. Cause no way Netflix management isn't high on cocaine most of the time.

Should I try this at a train station then?

I think I saw this on Graham Norton. Possibly episode where Jon Hamm was a guest.

Digital polluters in shambles: "Is ChatGPT Image Generation Down?" (community.openai.com)
 

Apparently image generation is not working and that has sent some people in a despair spiral.

Name of Hollywood Actress that has said/written this? (piefed.world)
 

She had said in her memoir and I'm paraphrasing here:

"For the last few years I'm waiting for two people to return, my dad and Jesus Christ. I've now realised they're not coming back. At least, I can't be held responsible for death of Jesus."

No, she didn't kill her father, she lived a wild life, and is blaming herself and her lifestyle that made her father stressed about her. (Just stating that for people with low media literacy.)

Search engines are absolutely awful at this. They keep giving links to bible sites or Jesus movies.

Context: I didn't read the original quote in English, it is a translation by me.

I read it in an essay/opinion piece in my mother tongue. The writer was also lamenting about not caring for his father when he was alive and I guess he was writing about the universality of that regret? Been a long time since I read that but that quote has stuck.

Paypigs of AI [excerpt from Ed Zitron's new article] (piefed.world)
 

This is revenue made entirely by convincing your customers that something is true (AI is the most revolutionary thing ever!) and keeping them in the dark as long as humanly possible as they run up ridiculous bills, all in the hopes that you’ve brainwashed the executives/paypigs well enough that they’ll never stop.

And really, “paypig” is the accurate term for these cretins:

Russell Burke, Life360’s finance chief, said the company doesn’t yet have a real-time monitor of its token spending, but he hopes to have one soon. “We hope that’s right around the corner,” he said.

Russell, you may as well let Dario Amodei put a cigarette out on your forehead! This is pathetic! What a fucking loser! Oohhh, I sure hope that the company I pay all this money to lets me see how much I’m spending! I thought Silicon Valley was meant to be all about meritocracy!

What exactly is a third party launcher? (piefed.world)
 

In my opinion when I buy a game on Steam then Steam is the first party launcher for me.

Doesn't matter if the game is developed/published by EA, Rockstar, Ubisoft, or whatever.

I'm paying money to Steam, I'm getting game files from Steam, that makes it first party launcher.

Other companies are taking advantage of their role as developer/publisher to insert their own launcher to force me to create an account on their service.

But on Reddit (🤮) I see people calling Steam as third party launcher.

Am I wrong or redditors are wrong?
