You've placed a single book on a pedestal, and become so devoted to maintaining its high position that you would rather warp your perception of *reality itself* than risk a single chip marring its perfection.

Mike Masnick ✅Well done, @RollingStone with the parenthetical fact check...
The number of people making wrong-headed arguments against AI generated art because they think it somehow contains its training data is too damn high.
@PGTMR2 @juddlegum repeat after me: The only thing censored was Hunter Biden's d*ck
Lol. Musk is seeing the exodus, so he's trying to bar the doors as everyone rushes for the exits.
No more linking to other social networks or sharing your username.
Such free speech.
With each new surge of Mastodon users, I feel the need to point out:
1. Welcome!
2. There is a learning curve here, but most people find it short and not very steep. Play around, explore. You'll get it.
3. Lots of people are willing to help.
4. Yes, it's different than Twitter. Sometimes in good ways, sometimes not. But you'll figure it out.
5. With surges especially, things sometimes get slow/glitchy, but they usually get fixed pretty quick.
Be patient.
...our brains aren't computers. They don't have working memory and permanent memory. They take in data and work on it and sometimes record it. And what gets recorded, and where, largely isn't up to us. We get short term memories of things we'd've preferred to remember and lifelong memories we'd prefer to forget.
Furthermore: what we read and internalize forms part of our 'operating system', so to speak. Memory and logic in a vast pseudo-compartmentalized neuron stew.
There is such a thing as too many people listening. I have a theory...
