  • The 40-year-old, from Carlton in Nottinghamshire, said the website she used offered no safeguards. She says it only asked for her body mass index (BMI), which she was able to lie about.

    “If they’d checked my medical history with my GP, I don’t think I would’ve been eligible,” she says. “My BMI was normal. I just wasn’t in the right headspace to make a logical decision.”

    Having an eating disorder/body dysmorphia is awful, and I can’t fully understand what state of mind she was in. That being said, she was suspicious about how few checks there were and consciously lied about her BMI to obtain the drugs, yet apparently didn’t think to consult a doctor or do any amount of research before dosing herself with the shit?

    Sure, black market drugs are a problem, but if you buy meds off of shady, unregulated, and likely illegal sites, you don’t get to complain that the meds you received were shady and unregulated. If you want a pharmacist, go to a fucking pharmacist.





  • Sammy boy, that argument doesn’t hold up for 10 seconds under any actual scrutiny. Yes, humans use energy too.

    1. Your datacenters are using a shitload more energy than they are hypothetically replacing in human work

    2. Even if it was a 1 to 1 replacement of human energy to AI energy expenditure, people don’t eat electricity. We, in fact, have two entirely different sets of infrastructure for food vs electricity. If you just dump a bunch of extra load into one of the systems randomly, it’s going to cause issues.

    Fuck Altman and this shitty attempt at covering for his bad product.
