What the actual fuck are these sayings

Generative AI is not needed. Not for accessibility or any other reason! Stop using disabled people as an excuse to push GenAI! You don't actually care about us. Many disabled people find ways to create art! We don't need to rely on a tool that steals from other creators!!!

😂 This “Nakba Survivor” is literally a “European settler” In the late 19th century, Muslim Bosnians (including Inea’s grandparents), fled Bosnia to Ottoman Syria, after Austria-Hungary took control of Bosnia. They feared that now, the Christians will seek revenge after years of mistreatment. Inea’s father’s family lived in Tulkaram, but he himself lived in Jerusalem where Inea was born. In the 1930’s, Inea’s father had a Job in England, he returned to Mandatory Palestine after a few years, but in 1948 they decided to move back to England. They were not expelled, and no one forced them to move to England. As a matter of fact, Tulkaram, and the old city of Jerusalem remained under Jordanian Arab control. Not a single Zionist to bee seen there. So in summary, this is a European with no strong roots in the land of Israel, whose family made the decision to immigrate back to the continent of their grandparents instead of remaining under Arab control. (And the “visit Palestine” poster on her wall is a Zionist poster by Franz Kraus to encourage Zionist tourism to the holy land. It’s not even the original poster, but a replica of the poster, with an additional Hebrew description mentioning his name 🤦‍♂️)

Why don't we talk about the water consumption of an 18-hole golf course in the same way we do data centers?

Just saw a comment that they “love that Japanese call it Mr Fuji” and am non-ironically wondering how many foreigners think the san in Fuji-san is the honorific san and not just “Mt”. It never really occurred to me before
