Nope, still need that training data to sell to self-driving car tech.

I find it to be very annoying to use for linear algebra, statistics, finance, and differential equations. Mostly because it often makes rounding errors or halucinates a number/process.

Digital Rights Management, refers to software or hardware that limits access to something unless the user has authorization/licensing.

It's why you can't copy someone's game folder from steam and run it, or burn a PS2 disc and play it on an unmodded console.

I did some digging. It's a parody finance website that makes it seem like you can invest in falcons and make a blockchain (flockchain) with them. Dig a little further, go to the linked forum, and you'll see it's just a community of people shitposting (mostly).

Ismo is a Finnish comedian! He has a joke in one of his routines that plays out just like this. And that first letter is a capital i.

Maybe I've just been lucking out, but every concert venue I've been to recently has let me in with my vape. I usually tell the security person I have it on me, and then they tell me it's fine and pass me through. You're right though, it would suck to have to toss it.

I don't agree with the "smaller" part though. Most of the disposable units I see are thicker and wider than my refillable one, since they need to be long-lasting as a value proposition. I think the main draw is probably pure convenience.

As someone who is using a nicotine vape to wean off of nicotine, I still don't understand why people buy disposable ones.

It's less cost-effective, less customizable, and more sketchy.

Wouldn't the labels be R and S then? Enantiomerussy?

Yes, and Your Grace's (my) pronoun is "Your Grace," also always inflected and conjugated in whichever way is convenient to Your Grace.

You mean to suggest that the first person and third person of your pronouns are conjugated exactly the same. So the sentence "Drag's pronoun is Drag" exists as the first, second, AND third person version of the statement. At that point, what is the point of having distinctions in perspective? It almost seems like your system of pronouns changes the grammar of the language into a different version of the language... hmm...

Oh no, I hurt two dragon-sexuals with one comment! Your argument is stupid. If someone repeatedly injects their foot fetish into unrelated conversations and I write a comment of a similar nature about the foot fetish material, does it really take someone to make me write about it? No, it doesn't, I'm entitled to say what I want about it, and it's reasonable to bring up the issue at hand.

How else do you want me to address it? Jfc.

People who identify as dragons or wolves cause the same kind of harm as "I identify as an attack helicopter" jokes. You are delegitimizing HUMAN gender issues so you can fictionally identify with a fictional creature.

Every time I see you refer to yourself that way, I want to gouge my eyes out.

Firstly, we don't consent to engaging with your dragon kink. I've seen your comments that reaffirm that this is the core of your 'identity'. Your screen name is another clear example. Leave us out of this "Dragon Rider" nonsense - I don't care what your kinks are, keep it private without consent.

Second, why do you still use third person perspective here? Your bio clearly states that "Drag" works in the first, second, and third person, so why leave it in third person instead of speaking about yourself in first person? You are writing in english, right? Or is this Dragspeak/Dragtongue/[some other fantasy bullshit]?

If you're going to make up rules, put on an act, then submit everyone else to it, at least try thinking through it for longer than a few seconds. I get the feeling you never properly considered how poorly "Drag" works in first person. "Drag keep Dragself happy by exposing unconsenting strangers to Drag own dragon kinks!" Perhaps that's part of it: adopting a lizard's attention span.
