I would love that. I’m not sure if that works, since afaik the law only regulates the publication of your picture and profiting off of someone’s photo. In cases of AI training you usually publish it yourself and for example Facebook and Reddit already make you agree to using your photo however they want.

I wonder if AI companies could be sued for using pictures from a private website for training.

The Ritter Sport Olympia chocolate (Milk-honey-hazelnut flavour) and snickers icecream. I love it so much. Haven’t eaten it in 8 years. Also curious to find out if they would bother to use an epipen on me just to kill me a couple of hours later.

I think that could fall under “Recht am eigenen Bild” (right to your own picture). It gives you the right to decide how images of you are used. If he profits off of photos/videos of her, she should have the right to sue him. It might also be illegal to publish the videos under GDPR law, especially in combination with more personal information like first name or city.

However, big festivals like the Oktoberfest often have a disclaimer that you agree to being filmed and your picture being published due to TV, press etc. being there. I don’t know how that would work.

Don"t worry, that will all be handled by robots powered by the latest GenAI-model.

I would love to geht into photography more and even develop my own films, but I don’t have the space and I also don’t have the money for a good camera.

Also sewing, same reason.

I bouth a cheap guitar for 10€ at a fleamarket. Doesn’t look good but it works. I you just want to try around and maybe learn a bit with the help of YouTube that’s an option.

The worst part is, this ends up hurting people with real allergies. I myself have an anaphylaxis to nuts so I also carry an epipen. Which is why I asked the coworker for hers, because I am trained to use it. I can’t tell you how often I’ve met people who don’t take it seriously and tell me I’ll be fine with just a little bit of nut or organic nuts. “I have a cousin who’s allergic to XYZ but since eating only organic she’s fine and she can eat it now.” This type of people will say they have allergies and then eat the item later and it leads dumb people to believe allergies are fake.

When the first Covid vaccine came out a coworker told me she wouldn’t get it. Supposedly the vaccine had “killed 90% of the population in Bulgaria already”. I told her I thought we’d have heard about it if that was the case, but she was convinced that the media was covering it up.

She later claimed she was deathly allergic to the vaccine, so I ask which part of it. From what I know you can react to a vaccine if you are allergic to eggs or chicken. That’s a pretty common food item and it would be good to know if your coworker has such an allergy. I also asked where she keeps her epipen so I could help her in an emergency. She claimed she always left her epipen at home and that she was allergic against a lot of medication. She never mentioned any allergies again afterwards and they seemed to have mysteriously disappeared after the pandemic was over.

I’ve defintely stopped reading the comic universes because it gets too much. You can’t just grab a new issue and read it anymore. Doesn’t matter whether marvel or DC. Every comic is connect to 20 other comics and you need to read Deadpool, Dr Strange and 10 others in order to have the back story of one Spiderman issue. When I read comics it’s the independent artists that can finish a story within one or two volumes. Same goes for SciFi and Fantasy novels. Too many SciFi novels out there that are this epic 20 volume complex world building saga. Just give me a story that is finished in one book.

Also knitting. Good yarn has become so expensive.

Before my first birthday after we met I had told my now husband that I wanted to switch to reusable pads. I showed him a brand I had in mind, but they cost 20€ per pad. That birthday I got a 200€ gift card for the pads so I could buy myself a starter pack. I don’t know what I loved more, the fact that he was so thoughtful or how he proved that he wasn’t one of those guys who get weird when the topic of periods comes up.

Me too!

On my 5th birthday my parents threw a party for me with friends from kindergarten. My father had a pretty good camera for the time and loved taking photos. This was during analog times, way before digital cameras, so you wouldn’t just take a bunch of photos because it got expensive. He wanted to take a group photo and I, always being a little annoyed back then with the constant photos, stuck out my tongue. He tried to make me smile but I refused. So he told me he’d take the photo of me sticking out my tongue and I’d regret it when I’m an adult that I don’t have a nice photo of me on my 5th birthday. I’m 40 and I don’t regret it. Love that photo.

I started Escitalopram 4 weeks ago. Not motivated for anything yet and my brain still feels like it’s filled with cotton, but I can at least sleep again and don’t panic about every small thing anymore.

My understanding is that bipolar people are swinging between depression and a manic state. Also these state last usually several days. My mother has a bunch of other symptoms of NPD, not just that one.

My mother is very similar and I’m pretty sure she’s a narcissist. She could also switch between “Have fun at the playground my darling! I’ll have your favorite dinner ready when you come back!” to “Why did you come back?? I’m sick of you! Get lost and don’tcome back! Having children was the worst mistake of my life!” within an afternoon.

So no, it’s not normal.

She often overstepped the guests’ boundaries. For exampled she pressured Mariah Carey into drinking alcohol as a toast to “not being pregnant” in order to force her to admit she was pregnant. Carey later said she didn’t want to discuss her pregnancy due to a history of miscarriages. She also got really aggressive towards a guest for not having been invited to her birthday party. That’s just her on-camera behavior. There are numerous stories of her being an asshole to basically everyone behind the scenes.

It’s partially general advise for taking care of yourself (stay fit, use make-up (just don’t call it that), choose clothes that fit you) packaged inside a large pile of bullshit, pseudo-science and grifters trying to sell you normal items for 30x the price. The parts that are legit can be learned from other sources that aren’t selling you an ideology. Go to medical professionals for advise on nutrition and working out, just buy normal makeup and get fashion advise from fashion content.

The parts that aren’t legit like bone smashing can be really harmful.

English starts in 3rd grade here and a second language like French or Spanish usually in 5th grade. Starting to learn foreign languages in high school is wild.
