Why do you have to worry about stalkers when you are a billionaire? Money should solve that problem quickly.

I asked ChatGPT to stop using the word “apologize”. Response below

Me: Can you stop using the word apologize whenever you are talking to me?ChatGPT: I apologize (I will try to stop using the word "apologize" in my responses to you) if the use of the word "apologize" in my responses has been inappropriate or has caused any discomfort. As an AI language model, I am programmed to try to be as helpful and accurate as possible, and I apologize (I will try to use a...

@dang it would be nice if instead of moving comments and taking off submissions off of the front page if you could instead merge them (in some cases)... i.e.: all those merged submissions would show all posted URLs and comments.

I tried to get my account banned by posting Mastodon links and I was not successful... my account must be too insignificant.

Musk should get a Neuralink to let us know what is going on....
Re:Twitter Suspends PG's Account on Sunday December 18, 2022 @06:52PM (#34045944)
Wow... If Twitter survives Musk I would be surprised.... but whenever I try to make a prediction, the opposite happens.
Why do they throw away the valuable meat?
> There's no excuse for that level of inhumanity.

I think it's like a religion for them... complete lack of common sense.

Re:Does Glass Break Faster Than a Bullet? on Friday December 16, 2022 @06:24PM (#34022043)
It is generally not accurate to say that glass breaks faster than a bullet. The speed at which a bullet travels and the speed at which glass shatters are two very different things.

Bullets can travel at speeds of hundreds or even thousands of meters per second, depending on the caliber and type of gun being used. In contrast, the speed at which glass shatters is typically much slower, on the order of a few meters per second.

There are many factors that can affect the strength and durability of glass, including its thickness, composition, and the type of stress it is subjected to. In some cases, a bullet may be able to penetrate a pane of glass, while in other cases the glass may shatter upon impact.

It is also worth noting that the type of glass used in bulletproof windows is specifically designed to be able to withstand the impact of bullets. This type of glass is typically much thicker and stronger than ordinary window glass, and is able to absorb the kinetic energy of a bullet without shattering.

I like to host my own Wireguard instance to access my home network from remote locations...
They need to recount it again... or better yet, start over
Re:Twitter Suspends @Joinmastodon on Thursday December 15, 2022 @09:59PM (#34009274)
The message from the image:

Twitter just banned Mastodon's official Twitter account @joinmastodon with 174,000 followers, probably because it tweeted a link to @ElonJet's Mastodon account. Twitter is now censoring posting the link, but the user is @[email protected]

Also, US police killed more then 10,000 people by gunshot since then... (almost 9000 since 2015: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/washingtonpost/data-police...)
Is this a joke?

Not sure when it came out but I'm already using it in Arch. I like to use Nemo file manager instead of Thunar though.

I know that the data is public, but it takes a bit of code to do what he did.
