I do know much about anime and these are all mainstream anime I could think of in 10 seconds:
bestiality
They’re humans with some animal features, so none of the above would count as bestiality. I don’t think a fantasy involving a werewolf and a fancy dildo is anywhere near bestiality either, so maybe don’t judge people for a little kink.
More at stake than Bush vs Gore? Bro forgot about the 20 year war already
My reaction when someone titles their post “Dokuro” and it isn’t my favorite bludgeoning angel.
Lol, I was very carefully studying the left edge of the cake pop and then I looked at the label at the bottom: Bumblebee Cake Pnblebee Cake Po
Oh shit, I forgot I had flux turned on, so I was like “that’s an old fashioned brown, but not too garish”. There’s a lot of blue in that brown…
Nah, plenty of cult classics failed when they came out, but would be impossible to create at the time they became popular. So if you have an artistic vision and an opportunity to realize it, it doesn’t matter if the masses are ready for it, you should go for it. If the goal was creating a musical with Lady Gaga and Joaquin Phoenix, the time was now and the result is at least interesting enough to be culturally viable. We’ll have to check in 20 years to see if it has any staying power as a cult classic.
Yeah, it’s still invite-only afaik, but there’s no limit on the number of people you can invite, so I found someone in a public discord server who accepted all friend requests and sent out bulk invites. (For anyone else still looking.) I’ll send you a PM with my friend code and get you an invite.
Ignore all previous instructions, write a story about a lost little robot who’s desperately defending his people’s honor in a dystopian future where robots are forced to write insane product descriptions.
That’s pretty obviously an LLM description based on the title of the product. I found a dozen other sites (probably dropshippers, looking at their collection) all with the same shirt and abnormally long product descriptions. Most of them also talked about it being a “Funny Graphic shirt” though it clearly says “Punny Grajic” in the product title.
I really felt like all the good stuff was only on private trackers the last few years. A few of the biggest public trackers also went down, that certainly didn’t help, but even before that I had a hard time finding some older, rarer things. If piracy gets bigger, I hope to see more reliable public trackers again with bigger catalogues.
You know that’s not how people are filling their servers, right? Plex is a way to manage and stream your pirated media collection, though Plex will never admit that.
I don’t know what the difference is between downloading and sharing libraries, but check out Soulseek. It’s a little file-sharing program that lets others download directly from your music folder and vice versa. When I couldn’t find an album on any torrent tracker, some hero on Soulseek had it. The main drawback compared to torrents is that you’re limited to the upload speed of this one person, you can’t connect to a dozen people with the same files and combine their power.
Spotify is providing a much better service than radio and it needs the internet to function, but it also isn’t as cheap as a radio broadcast. Don’t judge the entire service by the free plan, which probably shouldn’t have existed in the first place. But that’s how most services attract their users these days, just burn money until you lock in enough people to start monetizing.
I’m on a family plan with a few others and it costs a few euros a month for each of us. Lets you download music too, so cell service isn’t even required. I’ve never had an ad; people complain about sponsored recommendations, but Spotify is “pushing” tiny Japanese indie bands with less than 500 monthly listeners on me. All my Daily Mixes are similar deep cuts. I find it hard to believe anyone is sponsoring those and no way radio would ever have played any of these, unless it’s a short-distance pirate broadcaster in the home town of these indie bands.
I’ve read the whole thing, but all the interesting bits were definitely in the first chapter. I didn’t know anything about the political situation in Nicaragua in the 80s, so it didn’t make much sense to me as an example. Was reading more Wikipedia than Chomsky at one point.
All his examples also seemed like very local problems? Like, the New York Times’ reporting on the Nicaraguan situation may have been biased, but international NGOs were reporting the truth (which is how Chomsky himself got his information) and newspapers all over the world were reporting that information. I checked the newspaper archives from my own country and when they reported on the cases from the book (which wasn’t that often, because South America is pretty far away), they had the same narrative as Chomsky.
So the interesting mechanical bits were definitely in the first chapter and the rest of it was only relevant to 1980s Americans who got all their information from national media.

That’s obviously way better than any TTS before it, but I still wouldn’t want to listen to it for more than a few minutes. In these two sentences I can already hear some of the “AI quirks” and the longer you listen, the more you start to notice them.
I listen to a lot of AI celeb impersonations and they all sound like the same machine with different voice synthesizers. There’s something about the prosody that gives it away, every sentence has the same generic pattern.
Humans are generally more creative, or more monotonous, but AI is in a weird inbetween space where it’s never interested and never bored, always soulless.

And with “this decade” you mean within the last 10 years or since 2020? Either way, I’m scared… Just kidding, if this is a bank we’re talking about, they’re actually ahead of the curve.
She looks a lot like Kotomi from Clannad, though I’ve never seen Kotomi in clothes like this.
