If you want barebones Windows I'd suggest you cough cough obtain Windows 10 LTSC.
It's got most the bloatware cut out, you just have to reenable the old style picture viewer.
Though when I eventually make a new PC, I'm probably just gonna use Linux Mint because I hear running Windows games/software isn't nearly as bad nowadays, thanks Steam.
Japan has a similar worldview to Americans because there's been multiple points in history where we brute forced our ways on them, conveniently at times where their old ways were losing faith.
Forcing Japans borders open while they remained isolated with outdated weaponry, and the end of WW2.
Capitalism was drilled into their culture until it's teeth sunk in and they had their economic boom.
That "rated 3 and up" is killing me.
Finally a solution for those jobless deadbeat infants.
May I introduce you to our lord and savior JavaScript?
This specific instance probably.
But the point is soo much of history ignores the female perspective (or the non-european perspective). Sometimes intentionally like all the female scientists that contribute to foundational studies and don't get their name on the published paper.
And this is really damaging; I have a family member that legitimately believes that european-descent men are the smartest throughout history (when I brought up the Islamic Golden Age as a counter example he accused it of being propaganda).
American schools are so bad at teaching diverse history. So many still struggle with the basic truths about Columbus and the Natives.
I think one of the main issues is the matter of fact usage of the term Minor Attracted Person. It's a controversial term that phrases pedophiles like an identity, like saying Person Of Color.
I understand wanting a not as judgemental term for those who did no wrong and are seeking help. But it should be phrased as anything else of that nature, a disorder.
If I was making a term that fit that description I'd probably say Minor Attraction Disorder heavily implying that the person is not ok as is and needs professional help.
In a more general sense, it feels like the similar apologetic arguments that the dark side of reddit would make. And that's probably because Google's officially using Reddit as training data.
That's simultaneously funny and depressing.
The way I've come to understand it is that LLMs are intelligent in the same way your subconscious is intelligent.
It works off of kneejerk "this feels right" logic, that's why images look like dreams, realistic until you examine further.
We all have a kneejerk responses to situations and questions, but the difference is we filter that through our conscious mind, to apply long-term thinking and our own choices into the mix.
LLMs just keep getting better at the "this feels right" stage, which is why completely novel or niche situations can still trip it up; because it hasn't developed enough "reflexes" for that problem yet.
I didn't know that was possible, new fear unlocked.
I don't know if they are in touch or not, but I just remember an impassioned video of Mark shaming the growing hate group on Pewds around that incident. He talked like a stern father.
I don't know what their status was after that, maybe he quietly cut ties after the Nazi suit or the Fiver incident, that would be the wise thing.
I feel like Markiplier keeps improving, over time his videos have cut out a lot if padding and fluff that was the standard in old school let's plays, but it's not a smash cut fest like some newer youtubers are.
He also is diversifying his mediums, like the movie that he's currently making (not a "youtuber movie", an actual movie adapted off the game Iron Lung).
The only real controversy of his that I can think of was when he stood up for PewDiePie when he said the n-word. Mainly because they were friends. With how many years he's been going I'm surprised there's not more.
