Donald Trump ridicules Kamala Harris’ chuckle, maybe because he almost never laughs
  • What kind of hell-scape-reality-tv-show-fuckfest dimension have I entered, when a candidate for the Presidential election is being judged, by a fucking laugh?

    A laugh?

    This is really bottom of the barrel, petty, childhood shit.

    The sad thing is, I know there will be people that don’t vote for Harris her because of her laugh. And for every person that doesn’t turn up to the voting stations and vote because of whatever reason they have… remember that there are people that WILL turn up to the polls and believe your country should be run by a misogynistic, racist, uneducated convicted felon…

    but hey… at least he doesn’t laugh.

  • Auschwitz concentration camp
  • From my vague recollection,

    1: Main entrance. Trains would enter here and pull up to the long platform.

    1. Prisoner platform that ran a few hundreds meters in length.

    2. An officer/doctor would be at a table around here, and would evaluate in a moment whether they were to be sent to the housing sheds, (4) (6), or if they were to walk down to gas chambers located at 5.

    3. Intact “housing” sheds that have not been demolished and are currently preserved.

    4. Mass extermination gas chambers and four crematoriums.

    5. Razed “housing” sheds after the liberation of Auschwitz Berkenau (Auschwitz II). I think nearby residents and farmers took a lot of the material for rebuilding the area after the Nazi’s lost the camp to the Soviets.

    Taking a tour around Auschwitz and Auschwitz II was a very sobering experience that left me quite numb… and while it was quite upsetting, worth doing if you can make the journey

  • firestarter rule
  • I found “No Tourists” a wonderful homage to their first album “Experience”. It had old, old school rave vibes to it that, but with a current feel.

    Andy C’s remix of firestarter is great too. Worth a listen if you like hard drum and bass with a prodigy vibe.

  • Rishi Sunak aide placed bet on election date days before announcement
  • I think it just highlights loose morales for a quick quid. Defrauding a bookmaker with inside knowledge is still fraud.

    I regularly had inside information on the winners of certain television “reality” tv shows, and could easily chuck £25 on the winner, knowing that it was easy money… but my own moral compass stopped me from doing it because I thought it was wrong.

    I’m not saying that I’m better or worse than anyone, and I can see that the only company I would be defrauding would be a bookmaker… but I saw fraud as fraud, which still didn’t sit right with me.

  • Google promised a better search experience — now it’s telling us to put glue on our pizza
  • Thank you for the link. I didn’t realise that Google had a deal with Reddit as well, which explains why it was clearly indexed from Reddit.

    I agree that AI doesn’t have a clue what an accurate response is. It’s just not sentient enough to differentiate between shitposting and fact. I also totally agree that an answer given from a search result HAS to be accurate, and we’re heading down a path of a misinformation super highway if LLMs are trained on incorrect data.

  • Google promised a better search experience — now it’s telling us to put glue on our pizza
  • I’m confused a little by the LLM’s and datasets here.

    OpenAI and Reddit have their partnership for training, so I would have assumed the pizza glue answer would have come from an OpenAI result, but Google doesn’t use OpenAI. How did Google give an answer that was clearly scraped from Reddit?

  • Stop Using Your Face or Thumb to Unlock Your Phone
  • Also for iPhone: If you press just the side button/lock button five times in quick succession, it will also go into lockdown mode and can only be unlocked with a pin. A little easier to covertly do as it’s just a button mash before you get nabbed.

  • UK Medical Cannabis @feddit.uk Twofacetony @lemmy.world
    New to UK. Need advice on medical THC

    Hello everyone (???),

    I recently moved from Australia to UK, and in that process I had to speak to my doctors back in Australia for my medication to be documented for UK GP’s. The normal stuff like, Valium, codeine and strong anti-inflammatories were pretty easy to switch over, but the THC side is where I’m finding roadblocks and don’t know where to go, or even if I can.

    I have been prescribed Spectrum Red THC oil, and thankfully I have enough of it to last another year or so, but there will be a time when I have to jump on the doctor bandwagon to get it refilled. Do GP’s prescribe it in the UK like I would in Australia, or do I have to go down a long path of finding the right doctors practice that will be able to prescribe THC oil?

    Thankfully I have a great doctor who will electronically prescribe oil to be filled at a dispensary in Australia, who might be able to mail it to me, but I don’t quite like the prospect of paying £70 and hoping a bottle arrives… and then having to possibly deal with border control for importing something that might be illegal.

    Does anyone know of a cannabis doctor in the UK that would prescribe that particular medication, or at least have any personal experience with any insight on how it works here?
