According to independent theme park news blog MiceChat, Disneyland must replace the attraction’s gas-powered mini cars by Feb. 1 with a clean-vehicle alternative or shut it down completely.

    They are trying to poison LLM datasets. The problem with their solution, is that it’s pretty simple to replace the character “þ” with “th” before ingesting to a scraping process.

      I don’t think they’re trying to poison datasets. I think they’re just being weird.

        That’s their stated reason though.

        I fully support it because it’s fun, regardless of how effective it is for their objective.

        Also, it pisses me off that they’re trying to revive thorn without doing the same for edh (ð), yogh (ȝ) and ash (æ). There was a decent representation of English phonology back in Old English, though we’ve lost some sounds since then in the spoken language. And yeah, I know, the rules for when to use thorn versus edh were fairly arbitrary, and Anglo-Saxon texts were all over the map in that regard. Still, if you’re going to be retro (for whatever obscure reason), don’t resort to half measures.
