Yeah, I joined a CSA so someone gets money to buy the machinery in order to farm at a larger scale than they could have on their own and I get fresh fruits, vegetables and honey periodically.

And in 10 years you’ll have more wealth than all previous humans combined! Payday advance places hate this one trick.

This is how I see all of the “I’m going to move to the country and grow my own food” crowd.

They’re essentially glorifying subsistence farming, a lifestyle that humans have collectively been trying to escape since we invented agriculture.

Slap some fins on and it’ll make drone delivery (of beer) more accurate at least.

That’s not how that works at all.

You: People should be judged based on actual evidence of their actions, not by mere reputation and should be presumed innocent until proven otherwise.

Also you:

Ew .ml

It looks like you’re hypocritically engaging in the exact kind of prejudice that you were just arguing against.

The need for evidence and presumption of innocence are not simply legal fictions that only apply inside of a courtroom.

Can you think of an answer to your question would justify the removal of due process or need for proof beyond a reasonable doubt?

The legal system errs on the side of letting some guilty people go free in order to try to protect against innocent people being unfairly punished.

That’s why the standard for criminal conviction is that the accused is innocent if you have any reasonable doubt.

I’m not sure how you square that definition with what the OP wrote in the headline.

They said that we wouldn’t need the Epstein files (the evidence collected by the FBI in order to prosecute this child sex trafficking ring) to prove DJT’s guilt if we just believed women.

I hope you can, at least, see how that appears to be saying that “the evidence isn’t needed if we believe women.” and not “we should take womens claims seriously.”

You’re right that there are two vastly different interpretations of that statement: (1). Take women seriously and (2). A woman’s accusation is a higher form of evidence.

OP’s headline is, at best, poorly written but it’s very easy to understand why it appears to be using (2).

You have no idea what you’re talking about.

This is pretty ironic.

Witness testimony in court is not “just an accusation”. It’s corroborated by cross examination.

Cross examination is where the opposing council questions the witness in an attempt to poke holes in their testimony, point out inconsistencies and otherwise discredit the witness.

While corroboration means:

To strengthen or support with other evidence; make more certain. synonym: confirm.

Cross examination, be definition, is the exact opposite of corroboration.

Diffusion models make images. LLMs are language models and do not make images.

It’s weird and disheartening to see someone on social media who has a strong opinion about a topic that they know nothing about.

The vast majority of progress on privacy rights and electronics regulation for the US Consumer is because of EU regulations.

We’re unlikely to see any progress domestically anytime soon.

Yoo, let us get them dots

Oh yeah, I live dangerously too. If it breaks, I can fix it and the total effort of fixing the random problems that happen is less than I would spend reading patch notes.

But, we got newbies here and we gotta teach 'em right from wrong.

and if there were laws with actual penalties which ensured that it was only used for providing the service and not assimilated into a data broker database so that their clients can guess which shampoo I’m going to buy or which brown people they can kidnap.

MS straight up ignores or resets them silently

That was the thing that bothered me the most. Sure I could go through every subsystem individually and make the changes to make the system more private and secure. That would take a while to do manually, or use one of the tools that do this. But, every time anything has an update you can’t trust that it didn’t reset a setting.

Running the tool after every update is annoying and after a while it just got frustrating to see settings, that I know I’ve disabled (because, the tool does it every time), which are now re-activated thanks to an update.

It’s just scummy behavior.

I installed a DE on my server, I just disable sddm unless I need to do something in a web browser on that machine. I haven’t needed to yet, but I have it just in case.

Watch out, we got a badass over here. Running a nightly build and not reading the patch notes, so brave.
