Hi. 💚

We recently had to tackle a major car repair that could not be ignored, and this has set us back about $2600.

I have a Ko-Fi goal set up, if anyone is able, any little bit will help. Thank you. RTs and Shares appreciated 💚

remote work is like birth control or UBI atp where there’s overwhelming research consensus they improve quality of life for people they apply to, yet access is impeded or blocked by the ruling class because the thought of marginalized ppl having rich full lives makes steam come out their ears

2. Rolling Stone is owned by a large media conglomerate, which is ending remote work across its brands.

My home is Portland, Oregon, ~1,000 miles from the nearest office, so this marks the end of the line for me at RS.

I grow weary of MS, my go-to for all things work related, making my job difficult for no reason at all bc there is no way in Hell I'm letting this thing on me or my wife's PCs, but options are scarce, & I'm sick of bein told to just 'use Linux' as if that wont break a hundred things we regularly use

one of the very first story arcs involves toppling a tyrannical government official who was forcing his subordinates to erect golden statues of him in his honor due to how "Great" he was, and it just doesn't stop being Generally About That for 1000+ chapters and episodes, get a grip.

people that claim one piece isn't political are either only consuming the content for the fighting and nothing else, or are shaken to the core that something that would be considered 99% """woke""" actually matters to them in some way & can only enjoy the IP after stripping it of its entire identity

unbelievable that there is such a war currently going on against sex positive content, and yet chatgpt can just ... do it anyway

i guarantee you that if i of all people wrote erotic content, you would prefer that over gpt ten times out of ten.

only cowards choose such a mindless way to exist

Oh good, ChatGPT is getting "erotica for verified adults" later this year

We made ChatGPT pretty restrictive to make sure we were being careful with mental health issues. We realize this made it less useful/enjoyable to many users who had no mental health problems, but given the seriousness of the issue we wanted to get this right.

Now that we have been able to mitigate the serious mental health issues and have new tools, we are going to be able to safely relax the restrictions in most cases.

In a few weeks, we plan to put out a new version of ChatGPT that allows people to have a personality that behaves more like what people liked about 4o (we hope it will be better!). If you want your ChatGPT to respond in a very human-like way, or use a ton of emoji, or act like a friend, ChatGPT should do it (but only if you want it, not because we are usage-maxxing).

In December, as we roll out age-gating more fully and as part of our “treat adult users like adults” principle, we will allow even more, like erotica for verified adults.
