Both are correct. Language changes.
Do you say *newb when correcting people that spell it noob because the origin of the word is newbie?

adding that she splits tips with her manager and kitchen staff at the restaurant.
They don't even let her keep her entire tips. The whole situation is fucked. Somebody mentioned in the article also brought up a great point...
“Today, this is a Filipino woman behind a screen, controlling a POS system — but it’s not crazy to believe that probably in the next six to twelve months, this could be an AI avatar doing all the same things,” he said.
What a shitty future we have.
Well tbf, in some cases, factually incorrect memes are a way to quickly spread misinformation and can definitely be bad for that reason.
I think the original commenter was at least somewhat joking in this particular instance, though. "How can we trust you?" seems like an odd thing to seriously ask a shitposter. I could be wrong, tone is hard to read online.
Not just that. Through radiometric dating, we have evidence of several billion years worth of nuclear decay. Nuclear decay is constantly releasing heat. It's a completely negligible amount of heat, but if you try cramming all 4.5 billion years worth of it into the single year-long event like creationists want to, it becomes a massive issue. Not to mention the other sources of heat like the water falling down as you brought up, the movement of continents, all the impact events, among other things. We're talking enough heat here to completely vaporize the oceans several hundred times over.
You think Noah had AC on the boat?
Edit: I forgot to mention the reason they need to shove all the heat into a 1-year event, rather than the 6,000-ish years they believe the Earth has been around for (not that it would be much better that way around). As the evidence of billions of years worth of nuclear decay is undeniable, Young Earth Creationists need some event to rapidly accelerate the decay by a factor of at least several hundred thousand times. And many of them say the flood caused it.
Eh, its just a community of people having fun and being themselves. I also think it's weird, but it's harmless, so who cares? I don't have the self esteem to be so open about something that society at large finds weird af, so honestly, good for them.
In that persons comment, they removed several "silent" e's, but all but one changed the word's pronunciation. I was talking about them. Like the E in hate. It doesn't make a sound itself, so isn't it still silent?
I don't mind silent e's, they do actually change the way words are pronounced at least.
Bro gives edge lord a whole different meaning.
Unfortunately, that really doesn't seem to be true. YT is a monopoly, they do what they want. None of my friends use Firefox, despite me telling them that ad blockers still work on it. They could spend 3 minutes switching to Firefox and losing some of the niche features they have on Opera GX or whatever they hell they use, or they could just watch the occasional 5-second ad. They just don't care enough. I imagine most users are more than likely like that.
AI art has a very real place in current society. It's very useful, and is absolutely going to get better and become a normal part of the future. We're not going to avoid it, so we should work on making AI less morally fucked. The technology isn't the problem, the people behind it are. Rather than stealing art, the multi-million/billion-dollar companies behind these models need to pay artists for every single piece of art they use in their models.
It doesn't change magically. It changes through continuous usage and acceptance from society. That's how language works.
Some examples. When was the last time you heard somebody say something was "awful", as in awe inspiring? When a kid says literally, do you take them 100% seriously or do you accept that the word's changed to be a synonym for "figuratively" among younger people? And as far as spelling is concerned, colour and color are both correct spellings, depending on where you live. Gray vs grey, acknowledgment vs acknowledgement, same thing. Or look at barbecue vs barbeque; the latter was incorrect for a very long time until the popularization of the abbreviation BBQ, after which it became a commonly accepted variant.
These things were not always correct, and yet, now they are. Society adopts and uses different meanings and spellings for words all the time. Sorry friend, you're not the arbiter of English. It changes with or without you onboard.
