  • Is there some sort of public blacklist of known youtube channels made with AI?

    Jump

  • Except unlike emails who are the ones who are reaching out to you, you're the one who would have to engage with the youtube accounts. And reading is faster than watching.

    It's rather annoying watching a video with an interesting premise from a channel that seems to have a lot of engagement and subscribers until you notice several minutes in that the content is full of filler and is generally just a waste of time, and of course when you check the channel is full of mass-generated videos. If there was a list we could just quickly check if something is already confirmed to be AI using the Find function rather than wasting time finding if it's legit or not. Even if the list is just those of the well-known ones who you are more likely to come across.

    If there was such a project I would gladly contribute.

  • Why not try?

  • Do you read books on your phone?

  • I prefer Epubs, I use Eboox on Android. I personally like digital because there are times I have to stand on a bus and I can just read it with one hand as I use the other to hold on to the handgrips. Btw it can turn pages using volume keys. Also, they are inconspicuous if you're a person like me who might read books that some conservative people may raise eyebrows on.

  • From what I remember, in order

    Watching my mother cook

    Begging my mother to allow me to handle a knife to cut vegetables or stir food. Also she taught me to crack/open eggs near the frying pan so it won't "break"

    Getting into a Technology and Livelihood Cooking Class, the thing I remember that I haven't learned outside of that class is learning how to properly hold a knife and sharpen it, the various vegetable cuts and the effects of cuts on flavour, and using a toothpick to hold the shape of rolls

    Reading a book called "Salt, Fat, Acid and Heat" as essential components of flavor. Helped me to stop making bland food lol because I used to be conservative with salt and fat and was making food that only tasted good to myself

    Watching youtube videos of recipes and how to do stuff. The youtube videos helped me a lot

  • Well what if someone else wants to learn how to educate themselves, huh? This ain't about you. Anyone can say some part of math is too complex but that's mostly because of shit schools. It's not always people's own fault for not being, at current, "educated".

  • Buying books for public schools directly, specifically for regular and SPED classes because our Department of Education is corrupt.

    I remember being in the regular class of public highschool and seeing that there's only one highly used book per 10 people. Sure the sections "for smart kids" were complete in books, often updated, but regular and special ed students were often lacking resources, and the Department Head of SPED even told me that the higher ups of the school were prejudiced against SPED students, and they couldn't get funding for those students even for talent show events because a higher up said, "they have no future, so why bother?", the specific reason I was contacted because I was identified as a Special Needs learner who had a bright (conventional) academic future as well as achievements, so I was encouraged to help the Department in proving prejudice otherwise.

    I felt it was unfair that all the investments of education were to be given to already highly performing children. The reason why I wasn't even in those sections for smart kids is because I was 1 or 2 points below the required report card grade in elementary, and that was when my mental health barely recovered from bullying. The reason I was bullied was due to classist bullshit (was relatively poor in a private school) and being neurodivergent.

  • (n.) Supposed deterioration of a person’s mental or intellectual state, especially viewed as a result of overconsumption of material (now particularly online content) considered to be trivial or unchallenging. Also: something characterized as likely to lead to such deterioration.

    "The devil take Don Quixote of La Mancha! How did you get this far without dying from all the beatings you've received? You're a madman, and if you were a madman in private, behind the doors of your madness, it wouldn't be so bad, but you have the attribute of turning everyone who deals with you or talks to you into madmen and fools, too; if you don't believe me, just look at these gentlemen who are accompanying you. Return, fool, to your house, and look after your estate, your wife, and your children, and stop this nonsense that is rotting your brain and ruining your mind."

  • In the Philippines, if you stopped supporting your kid at 18 they have a low chance of ever finishing college because ~30 units is the norm. Imagine having to deal with that on top of a job and doing all the household responsibilities. And if they do work they're stuck with low wage jobs because they only finished highschool. In that context doing that is just irresponsible.

  • Well I think I just realised why they do it. There's this longstanding conspiracy theory that whenever a politician does a fuckup they conveniently say keywords associated with the fuckup but put it in a different context (like say, scandal related to trains, so they get into a model train hobby), and they pay advertisers to market that changed context HARD, so if people search up their name plus trains what shows up are articles talking about their new hobby.

    Just thought of this because I was searching up "Banana Republic" in the context of neocolonialism (while reading my country's history) and besides the Wikipedia page being the first result, the next results were that store. And I remembered this reply.

  • No you didn't say anything wrong re: women participating in physical activities, it's just that the professor had a point. Not that the two sexes have the same physical capability or ceiling (your professor didn’t even factor puberty and hormones), but that women aren't as strong as they could be because of how society treats them differently. Lots of girls aren't even allowed to go outside and play rough for example. Because they don't become as physically capable it becomes a feedback loop where people assume they are weak so they are discouraged from physically demanding activities.

    And me mentioning the Tug-of-War thing wasn't about what you said but a statement against the people I mentioned beforehand who claimed that the physical disparity was so high that an out of shape man can beat a trained woman.

  • While I don't think the two sexes have the same physical capabilities, I dislike how being a woman is such a hyperspecific category in sports like someone could be born AFAB and lived as a woman their entire life only to be found as intersex in some test and now they're automatically a man and should use masculine pronouns.

    And as someone who is AFAB, growing up I was often discouraged from going outside, and the gym was off-limits, which would've been a disadvantage for me if it wasn't for calisthenics. It's not like the physical strength of a man and woman is so far apart either. Some people even claim that an out-of-shape man can overpower a trained woman. In Tug-of-War I'm able to win against an AMAB and I haven't had any HRT yet lol
