>It's so retarded. Vote for a government that makes it impossible to build more electricity generation capacity, then cry when electricity prices go up.

What the absolute fuck are you talking about? Missouri is solidly Republican run at the state level and they are very friendly to corporations.

This has a misogynistic gamergate feel to it and I hate it.

Well at least you'll know why your data was exfiltrated or your systems compromised, even if you can't stop it...

>Unlike our interventions for cybersecurity, biology and chemistry, and distillation attempts, these safeguards will not be visible to the user. Fable 5 will not fall back to a different model. Instead, the safeguards will limit effectiveness through methods such as prompt modification, steering vectors, or parameter-efficient fine-tuning (PEFT).

Where in the constitution does it say that corporate entities have any rights at all?

Ok, none of that makes HTTP/1.1 any more secure.

I think it's safe to assume everything this regime does "may not be entirely legal".

Elite would be a great game if it wasn't for the frustrating and terrible game design.

I wouldn't have thought you could do it by whacking together some 2kg rusty iron balls and aluminum foil but you can. I wouldn't try it inside of a building I didn't want to burn down.

Think of it less like a consistent foreign policy and more like the biggest insider trading grift in American history.

New comment by tenuousemphasis in "Corn tortillas in California now must contain folic acid"

tenuousemphasis — Mon, 30 Mar 2026 07:48:11 +0000

Someone didn't bother reading the article before getting uppity. It's literally on the second page.

>For nearly 30 years, folic acid, a key B vitamin, has been required to be added to enriched wheat and white breads, cereals and pastas in the U.S.

>Decades of research show the 1998 requirement cut rates of serious defects such as spina bifida and anencephaly by about 30%, preventing about 1,300 cases a year. It is regarded as one of the top public health triumphs of the 20th century.

>But corn masa flour, a staple used in Latino diets, was left out of the original fortification requirement — and rates of conditions such as spina bifida and anencephaly in that community have remained stubbornly high.
