Keep it secret, keep it safe, the internet depends on it...
Ah yes nothing makes a joke funnier than explaining it with captions.

Hugs are important because of what they mean - care, support, belonging.
Paying someone to do it won't solve it either. You can't replace the work and time of building up trusting and caring relationships with money.
As OP said - work in a food shelter, talk to people, invest your time in them - and eventually it'll work out, but not as payment.

TIL the fediverse basically DDOS's sites when you share a link.
I mean, just how many instances are gonna ping the URL? Several hundred, low thousands at worst?
Unless it happens to be some very large media content or a dynamic page with no caching, I'd think the automated federation hits shouldn't be too bad.
The influx of users that might come after a viral post though, that's rough....

There's a difference for a one-time fine that covers continued wrong doing over a period of time, and a fine about a specific instance of misbehaviour.
The first don't accrue, and I agree, should be based on revenue so that they serve as actual punishment and serve as future deterrent.
But a €250k that can be slapped by thousands of cases that happen every day (AI providing wrong information) has the potential to be massive as well.

I'm curious what makes you feel that way?
I mean, you're right, looks do matter socially. Caring about appearance is not shallow.
But if I think about the women I admire most and that I love, looks are never the valuable part. It's their kindness, their strength, their humour, their competence, their character - that's what's really captivating!
And if they feel good in a cute dress, or in a teddy bear pajama onesie, I'm here for either!

As of 30 minutes ago at the time of posting, the NYPD has detained two young Black men after they refused their demands to show ID without explanation or cause.
Well played by these two bros.
Making them waste time and resources with nothing to show for it, plus standing up for those who can't. Respect.

UnitedHealthcare Is Struggling To Recover From Luigi Mangione
The shooting "tarnished UnitedHealthcare's reputation and disrupted its operational stability," Ge Bai, a professor of health policy and management at Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, Maryland, told Newsweek.
No, it did not, don't pin that one on Luigi.
UnitedHealthcare did that all on their lonesome, by profiteering on people's pain and suffering.

ICE thugs pounced on a man right there in the US Federal courthouse in NYC, mere minutes after his immigration case was dismissed
Holy shit. Goon squads. They don't even identify themselves??
Imagine a hypothetical scenario where a group of random citizens gang up on an ICE agent during their Sunday stroll and handcuff them, and throw them off a bridge somewhere, handcuffs still on.
How would a sheriff know that they aren't ICE agents themselves? Or are we going by skin colour?
