It looks stuffed, almost. Why is it eating a dead leaf? And those faces can't just be 'smiles'.

Like Apple's devices, Android phones are most secure when they've been freshly rebooted. In this "Before First Unlock" (BFU) state, biometrics and location-based unlocking won't work. The only way to access the device is to use the passcode or PIN. Additionally, all the data stored on the phone is encrypted in the BFU state, making retrieval and snooping much more difficult, even for law enforcement groups that have access to advanced data recovery tools.

I just have never had a Linux system that didn't require some sort of terminal work to fix the occasional bug. A couple of updates ago Fedora left me with conflicting packages that needed the terminal to straighten out.

Ah, the new Lemmy giraffaroo?

Well I had no flippin clue

I once searched for whale song on YouTube and got one of those.

Hmm, well there's that. So Germany and Scandinavia ranker higher (I'm from Denmark and sometimes sit). I have to wonder how this correlates to a standard development index. It's not unusual for the US to be a cultural outlier on those.

Brother. Churchill is dead, brother.

People might sit more in your country, but I've never heard of that being particularly European.

Ridiculous! Tariffs on antimatter now!

Mating season. These guys will hump a rotten mango.

And those are not its thighs.

Um yea, and gloves. STDs are a thing? I hope this doesn't honestly strike the writers as odd.

Assuming the probability of assholiness based on culture is how you treat cultures unequally.

If you agree that bad ideas can be part of cultures (large or small) to a higher or lesser degree, it follows that some cultures have a higher frequency of people with the need for the individual 'education' you're suggesting.

This phrasing always bothers me a little, because, as even the article quotes a scientist saying: “All colors are made up by the brain.”

Purple is special because it triggers from non-continuous wavelengths of light, not because the subjective experience of purple is an invention of the brain. Being 'invented' is something common to all colors. Or sounds. Or tastes.

you can't trust its explanations as to what it has just done.

I might have had a lucky guess, but this was basically my assumption. You can't ask LLMs how they work and get an answer coming from an internal understanding of themselves, because they have no 'internal' experience.

Unless you make a scanner like the one in the study, non-verbal processing is as much of a black box to their 'output voice' as it is to us.

And 'assholes' just appear at random? Nothing in these groups increases or decreases the asshole frequency? Imagine if we thought of all culture that way. Forget about progressive politics changing people's minds and thereby their behavior. "Some people are just 'assholes', what are you gonna do?"

I can't even make sense of what you're saying. You're the one who replied to me. Going to leave it at that.
