  • Pays for Bruce Banner to have therapy and anger management to work through his PTSD and anger issues.

  • But you wouldn't text another iPhone. You'd WhatsApp the person.

  • That's the trap the restaurant uses to get out of giving 10% off.

  • Fair. It's hard to know sometimes if someone has English as a first or second language. People can be really technically good, but then not understand more subtle cultural things.

    Never know maybe both of our comments will help some people.

  • It's common in English to refer to a collective like a company or government as though it were an individual. I think it's just a simple short hand really.

    Eg "The whitehouse said today...." We know that the whitehouse (a building) doesn't have the power of speech and that really means "a whitehouse spokesperson working in an official capacity on behalf of the government said today".

    Really the headline should be something along the lines of "what, exactly, are Xbox business strategists thinking?" But because of the common knowledge of how this shorthand works they can just use the headline they did.

    There's probably a fancy linguistic name for it. ¯(ツ)

  • Might be worth letting the uni know. Surely they'll want to fix the site!

  • X Window System (X11, or simply X) is a windowing system for bitmap displays, common on Unix-like operating systems.

  • It's was sold to a Chinese company a few years ago.

  • The links to Wikipedia are actual citations to real sources

    I read an interesting article a few years ago about the Wikipedia source problem. It did a dive into how sources that seem legitimate on Wikipedia can and up citing sources that are less so. They were able to trace back the citations to Wikipedia itself. So no, they're not always real sources.

    LLMs basically just generate something that looks like the link to a credible source which might support what it's said. It doesn't care if its "source" actually supports what it says.

    Which is why you read the page it has linked for you as a source. Unless you're trying to say it full on generates a page for you.

  • What I mean is I use it to get the links to those sources. Like when you use Wikipedia as a jumping off point. I don't think we're at the point yet where we have the problem Wikipedia sometimes has that the sources used sometimes themselves just cite Wikipedia.

  • I've found bing ai is quite good if you ask for the source after anything it spits out.

  • Lol so he had to get an iPhone for family chat, then I'll bet still had to install WhatsApp for all his friend's group chats.

  • The strangest thing was when I learned that American teenagers bully the ones who have Android because they mess up with the iMessage chats. So weird.

    FTFY. In the rest of the world no one uses either SMS or iMessage.

  • Sync is a one time payment for ad-free. It's ultra that is subscription which has a load of bumph you don't need and ad-free as well.

  • As a non American millennial I have no fucking clue what the second one is.

  • If something like this had been about I'd have had it done at 21 rather than my wife fucking up her hormones with the pill for a few years before we ended up getting the permanent snip.

  • £500 well spent. Though I'm still annoyed that my local NHS trust wouldn't fund it.
