Did you know that you can just read all the previously accepted unicode emoji proposals on unicode consortium's website?

My favorites so far are the ones with bio section at the end where they are "an emoji enthusiast"

ND is only 800k people, a good portion of which live in Fargo, which is right on the border of MN. Doesn't take that many people to make a big percent a jump. Per county would be interesting to see for that.

Text characters are small, roughly a single byte, depends on the char and encoding. 10 gb is over a billion ascii characters.

Apple Music is the only one that will cloud sync your whole library, even media you already own, and add from another device, or bought with itunes. The desktop app is not great, web and mobile are fine.

Caught my first walleye today. I can finally say I'm fully Minnesotan now right?

You might be willing to bet other people's lives on that, but its not narcissistic for someone to not want to bet their own.

But not being trans, you dont get to decide for them if their lives are in fact materially better under Newsom vs trump. Because for many, especially if newsom caves to this whole "no hormones under 25 thing", the result is still the same. They wont make it to 25.

It's not narcissistic for trans people to refuse to vote in ways that remove their rights and ability to participate in public life. It's saying "this doesn't affect me, so why should it affect you". At best, it's a giant blind spot in your empathy. At worst it's deliberate appeasement to fascists

Ah yes, the same llm that tells people to mix vinegar and bleach for cleaner clothes. Clearly an authoritative source worth trusting.

That's also not what that phrase means. Or is buckling to imagined public opinion your definition of having a backbone?

30.08.2025 20:06 β€” πŸ‘ 1    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

No, as in, "no one wants to hear your shitty opinion, fuck off"

Ah yes, the politically remarkable act of not vetoing a bill your legislature already passed.

You are the one hyperventilating over other people having a backbone. Go argue with a wall and spare the rest of us.

Removing them entirely as public facing chatbots is the solution. They are a technology that causes multiple layers of harm both at an individual and societal level. They offer little to no benefit. They don't need to exist. We outlaw things that harm society and individual citizens.

For someone so tangled up in a lot of failed reading comprehension you sure seem confident you know everything. I'm a software engineer and even I can tell the claims you are making are a full misunderstanding of the paper you linked and the thread & replies. You are way over your skis bub.

So this is you demonstrating your superior intellect that would have never let this happen right?

But yeah sure, being squashed under the thumb of a multi billion dollar ruling class in the costume of a democracy is definitely the fault of the citizens. No one needs your advice or opinions.

Just get in line with all the other asshats who think that they are smart than every single person in the us. You aren't and support of politicians like newsom and the type of politics that newsom represents are exactly why that happened. You dont know what you are talking about.

I didn't, and your advice sucks, so no, we dont need it.

Why are you talking about any of this then? Go away, its not your country, its not your politics, its not your say that matters here. You are arguing on behalf a milquetoast capitalistic transphobic 'pick me'. You don't live here, you don't have the context to know anything about this.

Donate to Omar Fateh Support his campaign for Minneapolis Mayor.

Mayor Frey didn’t have the votes for the Dem endorsement, so he declared the whole process ILLEGAL SHAM STOP THE STEAL and got the endorsement revoked on threat of big donors revoking their checks.

Money shouldn’t be able to overturn the will of the people. I donated to Omar Fateh’s campaign today.

Mayor Frey is the most corrupt mayor in modern Minnesota history.

Under the same hardware conditions, most definitely. The way Ive encountered this notion is usually beyond that though, where it's outside the same hardware/os/dependency chain that is the concern.
