UFO50 and Diceomancer, both are fantastic! Also some lethal company, plateup and remnant 2 with my friends. Want to try out the new factorio dlc but not sure if I want to sink the time it demands.

Your “new alien intelligence” couldn’t even count how many Rs are in strawberry, shut the fuck up.

The funny thing is that he’s correct when he says that we are not sufficiently organized to deal with climate change. He probably wouldn’t like the solution though.

Honestly, this is expected of tech bros, just look at crypto. Shame on every computer scientist that gave legitimacy to these dipshits for a paycheck, especially the big names of the deep learning old guard huffing that heavy copium.

There is a disconnect between what computer scientists understands as AI and what the general public understands as AI. This was previously not a problem, nerds give confusing names to stuff all the time, but it became a problem after this latest hype cycle where incurious laypeople are in charge of the messaging (or in a less charitable interpretation, benefit from fear of the singularity™). Doesn’t help that scientific communication is dogshit.

I think going for the Rebuild treatment was a really cool idea and they mostly executed it pretty well. One thing I didn’t get is why they put that blur effect on everything.

There is no deeper understanding about the issues they are marching for. It is all just slogans.

. I don’t understand how people who don’t know shit don’t just shut the fuck up until they learn more.

I’m sick of simulation theory as well and want something cooler to take its place. Maybe Gnosticism?

I don't know shit but from casually checking the news mega that seems to be the general sentiment. What I don't get is wouldn't this ground invasion be a completely unforced error on Israel's part? Why are they even considering it?

Could be because cats can be really distrustful of strangers. My cat is really sweet but she'll hiss to almost every guest. Could be a upbringing thing though, my neighbor has 4 and 3 of them were street cats that she took in, when I occasionally take care of them the only one that gives me any trouble is the one that was there since she was a kitten.

So this guy has the time to complain about vuvuzela no food but not to provide some context for the indictment, instead linking to a 39 page pdf? And the rest of the article is just factoids about gold?? Western journalists are a fucking disgrace.

Also England stole withheld like 1 billion $ in gold from Venezuela, but I guess that tidbit didn’t make the cut

Mengele is the right comparison because this is not just some oafs botching a surgery, this is sadist shit.

Also the poor monkey finding some comfort by holding hands with her “roommate” through the cage makes me want to cry

People complaining about being called cis will never stop being funny. This fear of being seen as anything but “normal” is literal middle schooler shit, embarrassing.

oh wow, whataboutism much?

When people here seek out stuff on the other instances to post there yes, but a lot of the time it’s people coming here and kicking the hornets nest in which case I don’t think it’s brigading at least in spirit.

Brigading is a dumb concept anyway, but trying to convince ex-redditors of that is a waste of time

I recognize that there’s something there. I’m not defensive about the narcissism thing btw, haven’t formed an opinion and if anything my first instinct was to agree with this person, but they are acting like a little shit.

this you?

Just fyi, your posts in this thread are getting passed around on chan sites and are getting dozens of (You)s, I didn’t start it. Don’t try to delete they were using archive links and screenshots.

Ooo how scary a bunch of NEETs have some screenshots

It’s absolutely deserved.

Grow the fuck up. Also you ooze boomer filth from your emoticons, it sticks out like a sore thumb here

Boomer is not a slur, and treating it like one comes across as in bad faith. We’ve dealt with wrecker shit stirrers for a long time now and this behavior is really played out by this point.

If you’re being sincere and being treated like a fed irks you please provide additional context. If not please reformulate your approach to at least be funnier.

Mao, Jackson, ghengis Khan, all the same rung of hell.

That’s not what you implied though. Saying “Mao is worse because he did it to his own people” is tantamount to running defense for Andrew fucking Jackson. Backpedaling to a “anti-authoritarian” (lol right) both sides suck stance is coward shit.

Also “whataboutism” is just a thought terminating cliché designed to stop liberals like you from experiencing cognitive dissonance and forming some semblance of a coherent worldview. It’s not a “trick” to point out double standards and historical context.

evaluating LLM

ask the researcher if they are testing form or meaning

they don’t understand

pull out illustrated diagram explaining what is form and what is meaning

they laugh and say “the model is demonstrating creativity sir”

looks at the test

it’s form

When people told me they hated Hillary Clinton or (far worse) that they were “not fans,” I wish I had said in no uncertain terms: “I love Hillary Clinton. I am in awe of her. I am set free by her. She will be the finest world leader our galaxy has ever seen.”

I wish, in those exchanges, I had not asked gentle, tolerant questions about a hater’s ridiculous allergy to her, or Clinton’s fictional misdeeds and imagined character flaws. More deeply still, I wish I had not reasoned with anyone, patiently countered their ludicrous emotionalism and psychologically disturbed theories. I wish I had said, flatly, “I love her.” As if I had been asked about my mother or daughter. No defensiveness or polemics; not dignifying the crazy allegations with so much as a Snopes link.

Maybe “I love her” seemed too womany, too sentimental, too un-pragmatic. Not coalition-building, kind of culty. But people say with impunity they love Obama, the state of Israel, their churches, Kurt Cobain. In the end, I wish I’d said it because it’s true.

And I’m not alone in my commitment. Millions of Clinton’s supporters — we were thanked by Clinton as the “secret, private Facebook sites” — expressed it among themselves, all the time, in raptures or happy tears with each new display of our heroine’s ferocious intelligence, depth, and courage. We were frankly bewildered by the idea that anyone would hedge their commitment to her (“You don’t have to be her friend”; “Yes, she’s made mistakes”; “lesser of two evils”). We didn’t remember anyone turning to this stock ambivalence when discussing Obama, Babe Ruth, FDR. If only one reporter — they knew about us — could have published a headline like “Clinton Inspires Historic Levels of Adoration From Her Supporters” about the people who have had their lives transformed by the power of her brilliant campaign, unrivaled effectiveness, and extraordinary career. Just one headline like that, like the ones Bill Clinton got.

Usually a legend is made by men and media — the legend of Kennedy, say, or Jim Morrison — and then, much later, a biopic, pretending to evenhandedness, reveals the legend’s shortcomings, his “human” side. The shortcomings are almost always something exactly no one actually believes compromises his heroism. His problem drinking. His mistreatment of women. Well, takedowns of Hillary were always already written. She has somehow made the time to hear out each dead-end line of reasoning about her fake mortal sins, and often she has also thanked everyone for sparing her further moral lashings, as if that were a kindness. Under cover of “humanizing” the intimidating valedictorian, reports and investigations and media clichés vilified her. But the feminist hero never got to be a legend first. And yet she is one, easily surpassing Ben Franklin, Henry Ford, Steve Jobs.

I want to reverse the usual schedule of things, then. We don’t have to wait until she dies to act. Hillary Clinton’s name belongs on ships, and airports, and tattoos. She deserves straight-up hagiographies and a sold-out Broadway show called RODHAM. Yes, this cultural canonization is going to come after the chronic, constant, nonstop “On the other hand” sexist hedging around her legacy. But such is the courage of Hillary Clinton and her supporters; we reverse patriarchal orders. Maybe she is more than a president. Maybe she is an idea, a world-historical heroine, light itself. The presidency is too small for her. She belongs to a much more elite class of Americans, the more-than-presidents. Neil Armstrong, Martin Luther King Jr., Alexander Fucking Hamilton.

Hillary Clinton did everything right in this campaign, and she won more votes than her opponent did. She won. She cannot be faulted, criticized, or analyzed for even one more second. Instead, she will be decorated as an epochal heroine far too extraordinary to be contained by the mere White House. Let that revolting president-elect be Millard Fillmore or Herbert Hoover or whatever. Hillary is Athena.

I think people remember it fondly because it started a trend of more narrative focused western animation on TV. Like a Nickelodeon show with actual character development and worldbuilding was pretty unusual. And it seems to have that effect where some episodes/scenes just buried themselves in the grooves of people’s brains like early spongebob that’s probably partly a testament of quality and partly a product of endless reruns (at least that’s mine and some of my friends experience with the show).

what psycho uses the same :reddit-logo: for 7 years???
