It looks like a knockoff singer electric on top. Probably a K-Mart or Sears. I could be wrong as there are so many singer models out there. Not that those are bad per se, but parts aren’t always interchangeable with singer.

I have the legs from one of those to tables attached to an old door to make a big table. I used a 1x8 to brace it underneath.

If you look at thrift stores you can find sewing machine tables where the sewing machine folds in and it just looks like a normal table. There worth $10-$20 if it has the pedal. Don’t buy a sewing machine without the pedal because they cost as much as a good used sewing machine with one.

Become a kindergartener MBA

It is a punishment in the form of public humiliation, taking your autonomy, and dehumanizing you. People will automatically assume you’ve done something wrong if you’re in handcuffs.

I know

I saw a job posting for a court domestic violence advocate and they would probably reject men on principle.

Have entire college worth of resources

Somehow need hundreds of thousands of dollars for a basic research project.

Academics really are dumb

Has anybody else seen the price on 1234yf? I’m keeping my old car for awhile apparently.

You wouldn’t download a textbook on libgen

The worst part is that eBay charges a percentage of the final sale to the seller. It’s possible to lose money by adding one day shipping as a favor to the buyer.

Everything bagel, cream cheese, provolone, tomato/cucumber in that order. Eat open faced. You’re welcome.

I think we need to re-examine what copyright should be. There’s nothing inherently immoral about “piracy” when the original creator gets almost nothing for their work after the initial release.

The difference is that the llm has the ability to consume and remember all available information whereas a human would have difficulty remembering everything in detail. We still see humans unintentionally remaking things they’ve heard before. Comedians have unintentionally stolen jokes they’ve heard. Every songwriter has unintentionally “discovered” a catchy tune which is actually someone else’s. We have fanfiction and parody. Most people’s personalities are just an amalgamation of everyone and everything they’ve ever seen, not unlike an llm themselves.

It’s two different things happening. One is redistribution, which isn’t allowed and the other is fair use, which is allowed. You can’t ban someone from writing a detailed synopsis of your book. That’s all an llm is doing. It’s no different than a human reading the material and then using that to write something similar.

Was anybody under the impression that it wasn’t just account harvesting? It’s been that way for years. All of the default subs have been that way for a long time. The biggest clue is when you see the same post on multiple different subs at the same time. Just have your bot swarm upvote posts so that they take off under hot and you’re good.

I’m pretty wary of helping even those organizations. It starts to become apparent when the people in charge are only really in it for their own clout, or they’re afraid of losing power over the organization, or even worse they are just using the organization for perks and socializing.

I can’t remember, but my dad said before he retired he would just pirate Wolfram because he was too old to bother learning whatever they were using. He spent 25 years in academia teaching graduate chem-e before moving to the private sector. He very briefly worked with one of the Wolfram founders at UIUC.

There’s a bunch of websites that give you the answers to most homework. You can just Google the question and find the answers pretty quickly. I assume the people using chatgtp to “study” are just cheating on homework anyway.

Only old farts still use Wolfram

It’s almost always for a selfish reason though. For instance, health insurance in the U.S. could easily go away if the government combined all of the funding for public healthcare systems. It won’t happen because of the for profit healthcare industry.
