LLMs do seem to be able to store the chats and work with the old material in new conversations, requiring an account of course. Idk, I haven’t personally used any of them that extensively.

Like clockwork 👌

Strong Ivan Bilibin vibes (but apparently it’s by an another Russian artist, Ernest Lissner).

There’s an entire active subreddit for people who have a “romantic relationship” with AI. It’s terrifying.

Maybe it’s a me thing, but no amount of turning extensions on or off was able to fix it on my end

It’s not just you. For me, for whatever reason, it used to get stuck regularly, for months on end, regardless of the extensions. Then it suddenly started working almost perfectly, maybe half a year ago. Now it works fine like 75% the time but still gets kind of stuck from time to time.

Nice, it looks like they also mirror HathiTrust now?

Pity about .is, over the last year it’s probably been offline more than online. It was the original one, but AA carries on the torch.

.is domain is kill, but .li is still fine, as well as Z-lib, you can download there - Anna’s Archive provides a link whenever available, under external links.

As for Cloudflare, I sometimes have problems with it on Firefox, it likes to get stuck in a loop. Try opening it in incognito, without extensions, to see if any of them might be causing the issue. If that doesn’t work, try opening the link in an another browser.

any colour you choose for a “default” will end up mapped to the “cultural” default

Now I’m wondering if this has ever been tested on black Africans, in homogeneously black communities, do (or did) they perceive the yellow emoji as foreign/alien in any way?

Probably difficult or impossible to test, admittedly…

but for me all the xkcd figures are white, even though they are not racialised.

If xkcd introduced character whose head-circle was filled with black, that character would definitely be viewed as black. But - if all the characters had black heads, would we default back to all of them being white?
