Nice, Shinigami Kami about to drop another new rule lmao

One of the rules state you cannot hand the note to a human under 6 years old, but a dropped notebook can be used by ANY AGE to the same effect, which I suppose includes eldery.

Actually, one of the rules is:

You will not die if you write your name here, but it is not recommended. (Arrow pointed at the cover.)

and also:

You can write with any pen: the color doesn't matter. If you use a sticker with a name printed on it, there will be no effect. Please write directly onto the notebook. It would be a good idea to change your handwriting as much as possible.

But if that's true then it implies you will die if you write it anywhere else, which breaks another rule:

When the (loaned) owner dies, the Shinigami writes their name in the book (This is not a numbered rule but something Ryuk states, which could be false).

Which can also conflict with Rule IX for an immortality hack:

The Death Note will not ever affect a victim whose name has been misspelled four times. IX

But then they already patched it I guess:

If a Death Note owner accidentally misspells a person's name four times, that person will be free from being killed by the Death Note. However, if the Death Note owner intentionally misspells the name four times, the owner will die. XXXV
The Japanese version also includes:
The person whose name was misspelled four times on purpose will not be free of death by a Death Note.

Nah I think it was Phi throwing me off if anything.

We do technically use Ø for empty sets or as diameter in mathematics, and diacriticals are technically allowed in English but we really only use them to describe phonetics.

I could have sworn it had use in either spherical or polar coordinate systems but I guess I was misremembering.

You're one of the dupes in this case. The problem is NOT that AI is scary, the problem is that by convincing people that AI is scary (even when it isn't) he can sell more AI to idiots namely idiots in charge of defence contracts such as Microsoft.

It also distracts from the very real capability to do harm that AI actually has and is doing: mass disinformation, addiction, and psychosis.

FALSE

AI ALSO DOES NOT MAKE PROFIT

I've had my Arch install boot into emergency mode a couple of times, usually because an HDD was missing or added and I had to edit the fstab file, but I've never had one "brick" itself. I have actually had Windows brick itself once, when the MBR got corrupted. You can't fix that, best you can do is extract your files via another working system if they were unencrypted.

It was in all likelihood lagging because of Windows Update. The only way I would use Windows at this point is if it was Windows 10 LTSC with updates disabled or in an offline environment.

I've even gone through the frustrating task of setting up wine bottles to hold windows-only softwares such as Clip Studio Paint and Autodesk softwares.

Fun fact, ever since I switched to linux I've never had a system crash, unlike on Windows were every few days nVidia video or audio control would cause a BSOD. I'm actually convinced they make buggy and crashing drivers intentionally in order to push people off the 20 and 30 series cards, if somebody can prove it then it'll be a multimillion dollar class action.

This has been there playbook for a long time. When the Red Lines collaboration came out they pivoted to their own astroturf versions, www.safe.ai and aiimpacts.org funded by OpenAI and META, which hyped up AI's threat capability while ignoring all the real immediate harms.

They even have their own astroturf SuperPAC, Build American AI, trying to stand in the way of government regulation on AI which is dressed up to look like concerned citizens including fake grassroots advocates.

That's potentially the dumbest use case I've heard so far. Bro uses fucking LLMs to sync files.
