Why are you still watching youtube, then? What's drawing you in?

Is there any way to get this to work outside of desktop and android? You can't pay me to watch videos on either.

I thought android allowed installing third party apps without going through the store. Isn't this 90% of the pitch of android to begin with?

Interesting. Seems like it's largely converged to the same site.

They'll instantly become infiltrated with bots and include people based on arbitrary politics. Either the content is such that it makes zero sense to game or spam or it is lost already.

It's enterprise. You can shove active directory up its ass and spy on all your employees. That's its entire draw

Nobody is entitled to anything, of course. But you're a jackass if you knowingly exploit people. A "livable wage" is a legal concept and does not incorporate your wealth.

I intended to imply this with "detection of contradiction". Coherence seems to me to be the only a priori meaning. Most of the meaning of "meaning" seems to me to be a posteriori. After all, what is the point of an a pri

> we'll believe anything Can you explain what you're referring to? Obviously "ancient aliens" does not count as archaeology, despite your insistence otherwise.

This is true in many, many, many, many places. It takes a significantly higher bar of evidence to put forward specific tooling than an engineer's intuition to make the mark in archaeology.

It would be a lot better for the community if you directly replied to the objectionable content with a civil response.

No need to be an asshole; we can all discuss things civilly.

Ok, which system has more viruses devoted to it?

Switzerland is a state. Talking about what they're "allowed" to do is just meaningless. But, it does seem like a terrible place to live. I fear for the immigrants who form the basis of the economy.

Is it obvious? I suspect there are at least two sets of popular answers depending on what propaganda you consume.

Surely higher level math is just linear combinations of the syntax and implications of lower level math. LLMs are taught syntax of basically all existing math notation, I assume. Much of math is, after all, just linguistic manipulation and

Right but how would a chatbot be considered a weapon? Unless you're engaged in an astroturfing war on reddit it doesn't seem very useful. Most forms of power are more proportional to how much capital you control than anything rela

You can always put the cameras inside the home and disable WAN access. Best of all worlds.

If I can't tip, I don't go out. Cuz I don't have to. Granted, I also don't go to the EU if I can avoid it, and most places I make so much more money than the locals I don't mind a bit extra for the worker.

Is there any reason to think that intelligence (or computation) is the thing preventing these fears from coming true today and not, say, economics or politics? I think we greatly overestimate the possible value/utility of AGI to begin

I'm not saying apple is perfect, but it's still more usable than android (and certainly google's web stuff) when I looked three months ago. Samsung is just straight-up spyware infested crap that's somehow even worse than
