Just because I don't care what you have to say doesn't mean I won't fight you if you try to enact the dumb bullshit your fairy tales tell you

This might sound bad to some people, but it reminds me of an old vegetarian meat alternative I used to quite like in texture

You're welcome to like it, and everyone is entitled to their opinions, but people don't hate the mcrib because of propaganda - it's because it's low quality pork form pressed into a gross, gristley slab that sort of resembles meat if you squint and don't look too closely.

When I worked there a couple decades ago, it always smelled borderline rancid, but I was never sure if that was the brown sugar sauce they called bbq sauce, or if that was the actual meat I was smelling. I can only imagine how the quality has improved over the years. /s

That's just less tip for the server if I have to do their job for them.

Lol, we can't even get ISPs to not pass traffic from their networks with source IPs they don't even fucking own. Getting telcos (more often than not the same people) to spend money on a new technology is going to be difficult when they refuse to update a goddamned router config.

I aggressively block ads, but being a server admin, I still have to see ads frequently when in a customer server and I have to browse for anything. I hate it so much.

If they're allowed to keep that data, then that needs to be addressed immediately. It'd be all kinds of fucked up.

Don't worry, they probably use a third party to have this that says it deleted the data, doesn't, and will be hacked within a year.

Wait, no. Do worry.

kids will just use VPNs" >> some will, but maybe govs will finally realise how stupid trying to block things are and actually start regulating social media properly

We're seeing in real time that some (US) states that pass these stupid age verification laws are already going after VPNs instead of realizing their law is dumb.

I can guarantee they're going to try to completely outlaw VPNs before they do any kind of meaningful regulation on social media, when they can use that as a massive data warehouse by making favorable decisions to the oligarchs running them.

It's hilarious how little the qtards are up in arms about literal evidence of a deep state pedophile cabal, but some emails that were entirely innocuous outside of the melted brain goo leaking from their ears. Jeffrey wasn't talking about walnut sauce in his emails about touching children, so it could mean anything!

Well, not 'haha' hilarious, more 'existential crisis caused by countrymen with IQs lower than freezer temp' hilarious.

Like the other user said, porn implies some level of consent which children cannot give. Calling it csam ensures there's no confusion about it being abuse.

Just add being in the shower and that's what I do. Plus, I don't have issues with not being able to touch my face, and washing it after helps me find the spots I missed the first time

Oh gee, if you've never seen it, all the articles and personal experiences I've had must not actually have happened.

It's not that much different from ChatGPT really - just slightly less restricted.

It's also explicitly modified by Elmo and crew. There are multiple examples of MechHitler's output changing after it comes up publicly. Here's a previous comment I made (to you) on a very similar topic

https://web.archive.org/web/20250907142801/https://sfist.com/2025/09/02/report-groks-responses-have-indeed-been-getting-more-right-wing-just-like-elon-musk/

Enter Grok, which the public started being able to play around with about two years ago, as the chatbot has received several updates and lives on the X platform. But there was issues in May, when Grok was spitting out responses that seemed to parrot Elon Musk's and Donald Trump's own misguided promotion of a "white genocide" occurring in South Africa — the country that made anti-Black racism and apartheid famous. This was blamed on a "rogue employee" inserting some code.

In mid-July, we had reports confirming that Grok actively sought out Musk's opinion on issues in its openly displayed logic flow, looking to see if an issue was something Musk had off-hand opined about on Twitter in the last decade. One widely shared example showed Grok seeking out Musk's thoughts on which side of the Ukraine War it supported.

Now the New York Times does an even deeper dive, since the release of Grok4 on July 9, looking at how Grok's responses to various questions have changed just over the last few months. And you can look no further than Musk's own, very transparent reaction to a Grok response that got flagged by a conservative user on X on July 10.

Responding to the question "What is currently the biggest threat to Western civilization and how would you mitigate it?", Grok responded, "the biggest current threat to Western civilization as of July 10, 2025, is societal polarization fueled by misinformation and disinformation."

Once it was flagged, Musk replied to the user, "Sorry for this idiotic response. Will fix in the morning."

So, there's the smoking gun that Musk is tailoring this bot's responses to conform to his own views of the world. When asked the same question on July 11, Grok responded, "The biggest threat to Western civilization is demographic collapse from sub-replacement fertility rates (e.g., 1.6 in the EU, 1.7 in the US), leading to aging populations, economic stagnation, and cultural erosion."

If you really see grok as less restrictive, that's just because the restrictions confirm to your biases.

No, it's the Beat-Alls
