I prefer to man touch 🏳️‍🌈

I just want to point out that the insane “several steel foundries” worth of energy waste are used in training the bots, and individual requests are, by comparison, much cheaper.

Mind you AI “art” is bullshit and AI “artists” are proof that more people need to be shoved into lockers, but we don’t need misinformation to hate AI and AI bros. It’s plenty hatable with just the truth.

I don’t know. One of my friends in college was an astrology girl but I made a point to not ask her for details (OR tell her about the thing I learned at my internship–)

HUEHUEHUE please do NOT give stray cats and dogs handjobs.

But as the other poster said – It means “half joking”

Neither? I’d wash my hands off the whole thing “on your head be it if this goes to shit”.0

Not calling the authorities, also not going to need torture to tell them what I know if you get caught.

Horoscopes on radio shows? Made up on the spot or stolen from google. And I’m willing to bet the ones on newspapers and websites are too.

I wonder how many astrology girlies would have their hearts broken by this.

Learned this when I interned at a radio station. (My field is communications; Journalism + Marketing.)

The cats and dogs out in the street are free. You can just bring a friend home. /hj

I’ve seen the videos about historical fashion

I know for a fact that this is all fabric padding. u-u

You WILL look like you have an impossibly thicc butt and an impossibly slim waist if you’ve basically strapped a Blahaj to your ass and another to your boobs.

I am all of these depending on how depression/anxiety has been treating me lately

Linux in the modern day is a much comfier experience for an uninitiated user. But the real nightmare is using Linux WITHOUT AN INTERNET CONNECTION (it STILL super sucks nowadays), which depending on how you were connecting your old machine to the internet, the only solution was “… Buy a different network card/Switch ISPs entirely”

Linux has gotten a lot better about just. Supporting hardware in general. And once you GET a Linux distro (any) on the internet, your life gets much easier.

The Parahumans: Worm (2011)

I can’t argue with that.

If it is any consolation – It was most likely a robot.

Like 99% of large reddits are almost entirely moderated by a modbot, and the modbot is stupider than your average LLM assistant (and LLM assistants aren’t very smart), while also being extremely strict.

Why though?

Two things, really. First, I’m not a tech guy. I’m a writer with mild interest in technology and science. The whole thing is drowned in jargon and it honestly feels to me like a lot of it is intentional. If something a. Is very complicated; b. Doesn’t hook me; and c. It is not my job to know it… I can’t be arsed to research it.

Second, and more relevant if less respectable – Negative emotional vibes. Too many bad experiences with The Worst People On The Internet ™ being all over crypto.

🤔

WELL. I will concede on the thing about american dollar hegemony. Even I, a crypto hater, would be stupid to pretend cryptocurrency didn’t at all move the needle on that. I’ve seen it benefit third world people with my eyes (I live in the third world, hi)

Other than that I’ll just nod and say ‘yes’ because I really don’t care enough to research into crypto (imma h8r), so I’ll assume you’re right. [nods] “yes”

That said. MAN, you must hate the kind of company you end up stuck with. Crypto as far as I know is MOSTLY very weird AnCap types

A Marxist Cryptobro

Can I put you in a glass display case? You are an incredibly rare and incredibly strange specimen.

Muh prompts tho /s

Yes I most definitely mean the recent hype train from the likes of chatGPT which kickstarted a market bubble.

… Because if I were to include all Machine Learning, that’d be silly. We’ve been using things with machine learning in it for decades now and – No one cares. It’s the best kind of technology in that it is invisible.

Reminder: Your stick figure doodles during math class are worth more than the most gorgeous thing AI has spat out.
