I have questions...On December 9, the day Horizon Worlds went live, a beta tester revealed in the official Horizon group on Facebook (via The Verge) that she'd been virtually groped by another user during a session.

Then make a big blacklist of known gropers.

It finally happened to us. My wife and I were out walking the dog, in our neighborhood. I had my phone, she did not have her phone.
We discussed how Germans raise their children versus Americans, etc.
Tonight, ad on her Facebook for "raising children the German way"
We googled nothing related.

Imagine if our lawmakers actually worked for the people. Shit like this wouldn't happen.

So, more ads.Starting Thursday, the platform is splitting up its main "home" section into two tabs. The move is part of a push by Facebook to show users more entertaining, recommended content

Well, what would make Wall St happier? A new easy to navigate home page that allows users to see what they want or a new home page will more ads?

People talking to each other is just a drain on their servers. Pushing ads is $$$. They're looking for that fine line between being useful, and selling eyeballs. I'd love a company that was honest about that.

Headline: It didn't take long for Meta's new chatbot to say something offensive
Find the "offensive" part in the quoted part below. The article never states what it is...

In conversations with CNN Business this week, the chatbot, which was released publicly Friday and has been dubbed BlenderBot 3, said it identifies as "alive" and "human," watches anime and has an Asian wife. It also falsely claimed that Donald Trump is still president and there is "definitely a lot of evidence" that the election was stolen.
If some of those responses weren't concerning enough for Facebook's parent company, users were quick to point out that the artificial intelligence-powered bot openly blasted Facebook. In one case, the chatbot reportedly said it had "deleted my account" over frustration with how Facebook handles user data.

I submit none of those things are offensive.
It wasn't "offensive" when Gore and the Ds claimed the election was stolen in 2000, why would it be now?
Calling someone Asian isn't offensive or calling someone white, black, or Latino would be equally offensive.
And what anime?

The other day I saw someone still claiming the "supreme court stole the 2000 election." I pointed out that the supreme court merely forced Florida to obey their own election laws, and was downvoted.

Tat being said, I wonder how Gore would have handled 9/11.

Posting this mostly because of the glasses. I don't think I knew they were coming out.
