With AI they can dispense with thinking too. And with an Optimus robot they won’t even have to go to the store or leave the lay-z-boy, raw unprocessed beef fat can just be shovelled into their unthinking and illiterate mouths every waking h

Yes. They have paid sneaks standing around and the second you do something like that they radio to the people who control the barriers so you can’t get out without paying it. Just completely f*cked state of affairs. https://www.m

Hmm or the layperson wouldn’t be “smart” enough to think that ChatGPT could give useful answers to complex health questions.

You’re pissed about your own stupidity? In asking for deep knowledge and medical advice from a Markov chain?

Hard to tell who is stupider, the writer or ChatGPT.

Yeah it’s got out and out criminal at this point. Not sure why we should accept a £6.40 charge to drop someone or collect someone from an airport when that’s the actual function and necessity of using an airport. I got charged £100 at COUNC

This is the kind of thing France often wants to do yet never implements.

The potentiality is in the numbers which need more citations to verify, not the aliveness.

How do you know? Do you have links for that information? And if true they’d be regular murders brought in, not mercenaries.

Disgusting to make that joke on a forum that strives towards reason and enlightenment. Disgusting to make light of 36,500 regular people potentially dead while seeking freedom and justice.

It’s a good quote from DFW but like all great useful pithy quotations it’s usually negated somehow by the activities of the utterer elsewhere. It seemed almost granted that one of the metaconcepts within Infinite Jest was that his ability t

I felt like the movie Marty Supreme completely failed to make me care about the main character until the final act where the filmmakers had to pull out all the big easy stops to force me to care about him. A third of the way in to the movie

OMG now I think about it, Populous is inaccurate too. I think if I was a godlike entity I would do a lot more than raise and lower land all day just to farm manna.

I feel like Jam/Blue Jam was about the zenith of British surreal and nihilistic comedy.

Literally soulseek with ads where some dudes in Stockholm siphon off the lions share of the music industry’s revenues for building a client. The absolute nerve and cheek.

Well it should be apparent that Greenland is the sovereign territory of another NATO member, Denmark. Coming along like a transactional narcissist and claiming you “need it or else” and breaking nato over it OR you get the Nobel peace prize

Library Genesis worked pretty great and unmolested until news came out about Meta using it, at which point a bunch of the main sites disappeared off the net. So not only do these companies take ALL the pirated material, their act of doing s

True. Didn’t predict the president building a Ba’al room for Moloch worship into the White House either.

When combined with the Peter principle, it doesn’t make for great progress, no.

They wanted access to a faster pipe to slurp 500 terabytes, and that access comes at a cost. It wasn’t about permission. And yeah they should be sued into the next century for copyright infringement. $4Trillion company illegally downloading

Having a situation where a president demands the peace prize otherwise he causes a war isn’t a good look for Nobel, and shows that we’ve now moved so far from the original intention of the prize that the peace component really should be scr

Another day, another step closer to O.N.A.N. - Organisation of North American Nations - as predicted by David Foster Wallace in Infinite Jest. DFW, Neal Stephenson, and Idiocracy seemed funny 25 years ago. Not so much now that they seem to

I think Obama winning the prize just for winning the election while being black was a very poor precedent to set.

I mean “begging the question” in the traditional philosophical sense – assuming the conclusion (societal collapse) as part of the premises. Not the more common vernacular usage which has come to mean “asking questions”. Plus the sky wasn’t
