i’ve never partaken, so anyone feel free to correct me, but i thought the usual point of shower sex was to do a quick shower at the same time as a quick sex, in order to get them both done quickly when pressed for time.

given the context, i suspect it just means ‘good morning’

i reckon professionals are more likely to be pressured by their job to use AI, regardless of their own preference.

i reckon it’s about this. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xinjiang_conflict

that is part of the joke, but i think the main part of the joke is that they’re responding to your comment asking if your comment federated in the negative, despite the fact that by being able to read and respond at all from another instance, it is clear that your comment did federate.

i feel like you probably misread the post there friendo.

for someone who ain’t so plugged in to tech-bro corpo lingo, what is the difference between 2 and 3?

“He resisted his homosexual urges, and remained faithful to his heterosexual wife until the very day he shot himself.”

that doesn’t mean you refuse to treat us though, it just means your treatment might take the form of giving a referral to a specialist. you don’t refuse to treat a patient with glasses just cause you aren’t an optometrist.

i believe its shorthand for ‘communities’

i’m using thunder. it’s a fairly old version as well, but it works.

clearly he got squashed by a giant anvil, looney tunes style

slop was a thing way before LLMs

love em. i’m actually working as a programmer for a game right now where procedural level generation is one of my main foci. sure, like any game system, it can be done poorly, and it’s not everyone’s cuppa tea, but i like it.

i mean, can you get where you want to go, and back, by transit? if so it’s kilometers better than most american transit.

eta: wait, you’re talking rail specifically? then if you have any passenger rail, that’s already way better than most american cities.
