  • If Democrats said murdering trans folks was necessary to beat Trump that means the overton window is too far gone and I’d be looking to ship as many trans folks out of the country as I could manage with my means. If and when it reaches that point, US democracy would be too far gone to even consider saving it. I don’t believe it is right now, as flawed as it is currently. Which is why engaging in harm reduction is still worth it.



  • redacting your entire government

    And this right here is why I can’t take you seriously. You realize the US government is the most militarily powerful institution on Earth, right? Even disregarding government opposition to your revolution of the status quo, you realize every far-righter is armed to the teeth and fantacizes daily about murdering you and your comrades, right? How are you gonna oppose that? Who will be your allies? Fascist Putin’s Russia, who straight up wants Trump to win so he can enact his expansionist policies unopposed?

    While you’re there LARPing as a revolutionary, millions of lives are at stake. Sure, the democrats also put millions of lives at stake, I’m well aware of it, but it’s not about them being perfect, it’s about harm reduction and starting from the best possible position for going forward with your goals, which I guarantee is not with Trump in power.


  • Trump was already president once and my political work was actually easier because liberals were outraged and could not understand the complicoty of their representatives.

    Hope you can look trans and queer people in the eye and tell them their genocide will be worth it in the end because you’ll stop all genocides. You know, after they’re dead and gone.















  • It seems more expressive than GPT-4 in general and better at itemizing information, but it’s a bit worse at keeping track of context and seems to hallucinate more than GPT-4 (but less than GPT-3). I’m currently on the free trial period so I’ll try it out for these two months and then see if it justifies switching over (the subscription is the same price so that won’t be the deal-breaker). One thing that it’s noticeably better at is researching online, probably because it uses Google as a backend instead of Bing lol.

    It’s supposed to integrate with other services, if you use the Android/iOS app, as it can replace Google Assistant entirely and get access to info from other Google services. However, the app is unavailable in the EU and a few other countries as of yet, along with image generation. Classic case of EU favoritism towards Microsoft and not sanctioning it like it does Apple and Google… It’s also rumored that the ChatGPT Android app will get Assistant API integration “soon”, but it’s also not yet available (anywhere, AFAIK). Presumably, even if that is the case, Google can probably add in deeper system-level integrations, given how it’s their OS and their ecossystem.



  • That does make sense. It is a country with a fairly small population, so I begrudgingly have to accept that it has to have some control over this kind of thing, not to overload its public systems.

    On the whole I think the concept of countries in general is bullshit but that’s a debate best had in another thread.

    The thing with the children of migrants being denied residency is truly heartbreaking. Do they become stateless as a result?
