Yup, owner of a 11 year old tarantula at this point. Their blood also doesn’t clot so your best bet in the case of an injury is super glue and prayers to whatever entity you prefer. It’s one of two reasons why I don’t like handling her, they’re more fragile than you think.

Joining an instance that has defederated from them should alleviate that problem.

The matrix admin group or a different one?

You can block Instances that like those, or switch to and instance where the admins do it on an instance level.

Bergen, or is there a Scottish city that has more rain?

The amount of copilots are getting out hand, are people able to keep track of all of them?

The copilot autocomplete and copilot chat are great QoL tools, but trying to have it generate complete PR for a given issue seems… optimistic.

I’m surprised Matthew concludes that it might actually be useful for some people honestly.

Yeah. I think a fair few people misunderstand the intent of my comment. I agree that the connotation of “female” makes it a word one should be conscious about its usage.

I was strictly speaking of how non native speakers of English may struggle with keeping up with what’s socially correct English according to the wider Internet culture.

What issue? I’m not even directly talking about the usage of the word female. I’m talking about the lack of understanding a lot* of English speakers show when “others” use their language.

To use male/female as an example, my language doesn’t even have direct translation for male and female, we only have the equivalent to man/woman when speaking of humans. I could totally understand that someone who aren’t terminally online may be confused of when to use woman and when to use female, especially as female may seem more formal and thus be confused with being the polite option, just as an example.

*far from all of course

English certainly feels like a lot more fast moving than Norwegian, can’t really speak for other languages. That wasn’t even really my point though

My point is that a lot of people seems to have rather strong feelings about something that can often simply be an honest mistake from someone who may not even be fluent in English, let alone understanding the finer nuances of the words

I feel like the last paragraph made it pretty clear? Most people on the internet doesn’t have English as their native language, expecting all those people to understand the constantly shifting connotation of every word feels rather ignorant/ethnocentric.

It’s crazy how the eldritch amalgamation that is the English language can have zero rules, yet a dozen unwritten ones of what you can and can’t say. Good luck threading the needle if you aren’t up to date with the latest cultural evolution in America. Add on top that the kids keep inventing sentences worth of new acronyms.

I get what group of people the article is poking fun at, one of them is on proud display in the comment section. Though I still feel people should have a better understanding that as the Internet’s lingua franca you’ll encounter people from a wide range of backgrounds, and their grasp of the language and culture will vary.

Anything above 8° is shorts weather unless you’re hiking. Going by your instance though, I guess hiking isn’t an option for you.

You don’t send in information to gulesider/180/1881, it’s automatically added unless you specifically request to have your information removed for whatever reason. They’re great sites to dox yourself for those of us that don’t use a fake name on the Internet.

Can’t read the tweet as Twitter is blocked on Firefox, but my guess would be closer ties with NSA, i.e. NSA can exert more control and monitoring of the data openai collects.

Don’t worry, computers got that covered too now !aicompanions@lemmy.world

I’m curious what’s triggering you, as of writing this comment, the (5) comments I see are all reasonable explanations that tries to help OP understand the language.

Upvotes does not necessarily mean people agree with OP’s stance.
