I was wondering if this was satire, but no, apparently.

Can you get a source for this? It's not that it's unbelievable, but I'm surprised they'd publish something like this.

Is there a windows version of the software?
If so, you could run it with Wine, since it supports really old windows apps.

Illinois Army captain says Dems are β€˜rolling over’ on LGBTQ+ rights. He’s running for Congress to change that

β€œWhat’s happening right now to trans people β€” to the LGBTQ+ community β€” is not okay. Somebody needs to stand up," Dylan Blaha told The Advocate.

In the Illinois 13th Congressional District, 32-year-old Army captain and biochemist Dylan Blaha is mounting a progressive primary challenge against Democratic U.S. Rep. Nikki Budzinski, who has represented the district since 2023. At the core of his campaign is a clear commitment to LGBTQ+ rights and a critique of what he sees as his own party’s growing reluctance to defend the community.

Wait his last name is literally Blaha? It's like he was born for this moment.

Until It's Done: Sylvia Rivera
YouTube video by Zohran Mamdani for NYC Until It's Done: Sylvia Rivera

This is possibly the only political ad that made me cry. If only this sort of vision, humanity, and COURAGE existed at the DNC.

If only Centrists weren't attempting to crush this sort of heart from the the Left.

On National Coming Out Day, know that I will always be an ally to you β€” no matter where you are on your journey.

I know that times may be scary, but you are seen, safe, supported, and loved here in Illinois.

"Democratic programs and agencies" likely means "agencies and initiatives that were created by democracts or align with democratic talking points".

...Is this considered practicing medicine without a licensee? Probably not, since there is no doctor/patient relationship, but still.

It's also possible that the training corpus has a lot of AI hype in it, either to influence the model or just because companies seem to be running a massive PR campaign for it.

I'm not an expert, but I'm pretty sure that this would be something fairly easy for AI companies to do, either on purpose or on accident. Because, like, when they do reinforcement training they probably favor pro AI sentiment, so the model is more likely to produce such a result

I don't think preference would be the right word here. I mean, technically it could be conceived of as correct; a lesbian usually prefers to have sex with women and not men, just like I usually prefer to eat food and not sand.
If someone is bisexual, then a preference towards, say, women could work

And then, if the bamboo collecting is a part of your week that you look forward to, and you do this for long enough, your will probably end up becoming a miniature bamboo expert. 2/2

Like, if instead of just collecting bamboo specimens alone in your basement, you have your friends come over every weekend to work on a collection, and when you find an interesting specimen you show it to your friends and they positively comment on it and show interest 1/2

The way I expect people normally try to do it, forcing themselves to do it until it's somehow fun, doesn't work well. But doing something so that you feel good when you do the thing, until you associate doing the thing with feeling good, might work.

I think they never get it back, anyway, since they don't have SSNs, because you need to be a citizen to get an SSN.

WHY?
On July 2025, Steam, a popular storefront to purchase games on PC, and itch.io, a storefront that sells
games, comics, tools, resources and much more, have recently delisted several NSFW games, after the
group Collective Shout published an open letter to payment processors such as Visa, MasterCard, PayPal,
and more. As a result of this letter, payment processors have strongarmed Valve and itch.io into enforcing
restrictive new TOS policies on what kind of content their platforms can host and sell.

Visa, Mastercard, Stripe and Paypal have been censoring free speech and legal business on the internet for TOO LONG. Their most recent targets are Steam and Itch.io, but they have also been pressuring websites like Pixiv, Patreon, Fansly, Onlyfans and MORE for years, applying draconian standards for what kind of adult/pornographic content platiorms and their users can host and sell.

If we as consumers and creators want to regain ground on this issue, we have to make our voice heard.

HOW?
BOMBARD THEM WITH PHONE CALLS
Collective Shout, the organization that lobbied to have Steam and Itch.io change their TOS, did so with only around 1000 phone calls. Visa and MC have backed down from pressuring Onlyians to remove adult content entirely due to public backlash. Clogging their phone lines for an extended perlou, over a mont at the absolute least, will almost gudrantee that these compantes will at least have to pay attention to the backlash. this list is not exhaustive. but some contact points for the 4 targets are:

1. VISA:
(US + Can): +1 [8001-847-2911
US option selection for operator: 1-1-2 or 1-1-3

2. MASTERCARD:
(US): +1 (8001-307-7309
US option selection for operator: 1-1-2-2-2-1
Phone (outside US): 1-636-722-7111

3. STRIPE:

4. PAYPAL:

I saw that, but like, I don't think there's any other option at this point. Maybe in the future we'll have a drug that can help, or like, a fecal transplant.
