@staff@mastodon.social any chance of a copyright license on those ToS? Might be useful for other operators

@brett@bitflipp.social @ai6yr@m.ai6yr.org @lauren@mastodon.laurenweinstein.org @mattgriffin@masto.ai I'm a fairly large, straight white male, comfortable with a respected job role. I've basically zero fears of retaliation. If I knew the guy, then saying "dude, a camera phone on the toilets might freak people out" might seem reasonable. Having HR so that if I don't know might seem reasonable. Saying nothing might seem reasonable. Never speaking up because you aren't uncomfortable, when you know others are, that seems much less reasonable

@brett@bitflipp.social @ai6yr@m.ai6yr.org @lauren@mastodon.laurenweinstein.org @mattgriffin@masto.ai I'd seriously consider an HR report for having a recording device out in a shared toilet facility

@ndevenish@mas.to @ChrisMayLA6@mastodon.me.uk disbarment is extreme for this compared to similar non-AI related unintentional but clearly negligent submissions to the court - a 1 year suspension and a few thousand pounds of fine would be par for the course

@GeePawHill@mastodon.social there's the Epstein memorial ballroom too, going from its initial "free" to the current "billion dollars for security" so that we don't forget Epstein

@swope @dotjayne some parrots are definitely sarcastic

@ekis@mastodon.social you can tell there's potential truth in your statement because certain powers that be defined unionisation attempts as political violence

@mjg59@nondeterministic.computer letters have handled that task reliably for hundreds of years, and fax machines for decades

@GeePawHill I'm European, so my normal definition of moderate right-wing is left of some of your liberals :-) By US standards I'm probably an actual communist, over here I'm mostly left of centre with a few hard left elements thrown in. The inability of folks other than the right wing to vote for less-than-perfect stands though. I think you'd be a fascinating person to grab a beer with - my round if you find yourself in UK / Ireland

@TinyGamerTris@universeodon.com @PicardTips@mas.to in some parts of Scotland, the word 'f**king' is just a grammatical warning that a noun is on the way

@Setok@attractive.space this used to be my absolute favourite things about Ireland. It's less common than it used to be, since pubs are just less popular than they used to be, but in the right pub on the right night the magic is still there

@DGI@graeber.social but your argument ignores the fact that humans are human, which is just as much a sin. "We could do X if we were a different species with a fundamentally different psychological makeup"

@calicoday @GeePawHill I can believe that entirely. Good point

@Amgine@mamot.fr @mayintoronto@beige.party other: question is a basically an impossible hypothetical. The benefits of unethical training are so many orders of magnitude better than anything possible ethical training that it just isn't going to happen

@jmacarthur @mjg59 Co-op supermarket had the same issue circa 2001, I remember getting a trolly full of carrots in order to bring a fifteen pound shop down to under aa pound as a student. We donated the carrots to the equestrian campus

@swift@merveilles.town @jarkman@chaos.social any interest in the software side?

@GeePawHill congratulations on doing and advertising your support for the thing that liberals are sadly terrible at in general - holding your nose and making the least worst choice. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for this and for November

@calicoday @GeePawHill I wouldn't get your hopes up there. Most countries with universal healthcare still suck at mental health care, unfortunately

@Setok@attractive.space it doesn't seem to work on chrome/android - can't drag the hats

@brett@bitflipp.social @ai6yr@m.ai6yr.org @lauren@mastodon.laurenweinstein.org @mattgriffin@masto.ai I said ''consider', because the thought would definitely cross my mind and I'd have to think about whether I wanted to. You might consider him harmless, other people might be made seriously uncomfortable. I wasn't there in your specific situation, so I can't comment on the details of that one, but if I think there's a reasonable risk of somebody being made uncomfortable, I lean towards saying something. 🧵

@deadbabe@cyberpunk.lol @LeslieBurns@esq.social @DeliaChristina@sfba.social people l many of the same people also claim that they're definitely not racist, yet their actions show that's a lie. Why would you believe their justifications about this?
