It's possible to absorb more or less from your food, for instance someone who is lactose intolerant is not going to gain as much weight from eating the same amount of cheese as someone who is not

Well my point is that Satan is kind of awful too anyways. He is not exactly in opposition to the terrible things God is doing in the Bible and in fact eggs him on so it doesn't make much sense to be pro-Satan if you are anti-God.

Story of Job is basically

Satan: bet that guy wouldn't worship you anymore if you ruined his life

God: Totally would, watch me kill his whole family

They are both on team asshole

Well I haven't played in years, but I strongly suspect that exceptionally low ratio of female voices I referred to was not just because the game itself does not appeal to women.

This doesn't really address what I'm talking about. I can personally handle people saying mean things to me (though can't say anyone in an online game ever threatened to rape me), but what I have a problem with is people I might like to interact with being driven out and the space becoming increasingly concentrated with people I don't like very much.

I think a lot of people on hearing this sort of thing once or twice will shut off the game and never play again. To me it seems like a similar kind of situation to a website like a Lemmy instance that removes all the csam spam that gets posted, but not fast enough that most people never see it. In that situation you can't tell users "just report and block", there is still a big problem and there is no one that can take responsibility for it other than the people operating the service.

I played thousands of games of Dota 2, and in that time I heard a woman speak probably like 5 times total, which honestly is very understandable on their part, but still unfortunate. Would be nice to play online games that are not de-facto filtering out everyone who isn't willing to tolerate being periodically subjected to verbal abuse, especially when it's extreme forms of verbal abuse.

It's pretty obvious that the censorship training makes the AI less capable in general for a lot of use cases, even ones that don't directly touch on nsfw content. It's a major reason behind the popularity of local models. OpenAI must be feeling the pressure to compete even more than they're afraid of people writing articles like this one at this point.

Check out Nostr, ActivityPub alternative that does authentication separately from content, works more like that.

Isn’t this greentext mocking Linux users?

Yes

Am I not understanding and the author’s perspective is actually that they like Linux but feel ostracized?

Probably, how else would they accurately identify specific limitations with it that someone who doesn't use it would probably gloss over? It's some combination of self loathing and playing on the insecurities of the reader to bait a response.

The joke is that Anon is a very irresistibly punchable sort of person and so of course they would be a victim of violence. A common theme in greentexts is projected anxiety about peer rejection for not conforming.

I think it is a little different if it is your own pets vs someone else's. Why should the rest of community trust the judgment and ability of someone to retrain their dog after something like that, and their assurances that it won't happen again?

and even then you can inly do so much.

If there's a very high chance keeping a dog is going to result in violence being done to the people around you and their pets, maybe it shouldn't be an option in the first place. Breeds of dogs with very high prey drives, ownership of them should probably be more restricted than it is.
