Best I can do is “[voice assistant] remind me about that post in two months”

Drat, gotta open the reminder and paste in the comment URL too. Do wonder if that bot mentioned is whitelisted or not. More social, beyond just being native. And hopefully it has “send me a PM to reduce spam”

Apparent tl;dr:

Soulism, also known as anarcho-antirealism, is a branch of anarchist thought that views reality and natural laws as unjust hierarchies needing justification through good work and the ability to be dismantled. Soulists extend this principle to reality itself, believing that our experiences, or consensus reality, are sculpted by society and cultural biases, rather than objective truth. By rejecting the objective existence of reality, soulists argue that we can reshape our perceptions to align with kindness, empathy, and respect for marginalized identities. This extends to supporting mental, racial, gender, and other diversities, while using the concept of “magic” as a means of influencing and understanding our perceptions of the world. In doing so, soulists aim to destroy the concept of an objectively true reality, promoting a more empathetic and inclusive societal framework.

“Tech” is pretty broad. Sure, in software develo—-

nah only /s :)

Parts of 4chan’s take on the Big Bang Theory may fit the bill:

Optimally you want the response to be empty words, grunting, or being told to fuck off.

US/DE/both, did you mean?

when someone asks me an impossible question.

I think that response actually works for the loaded question:

“Have you stopped beating your wife?“

No way, that is positively enormous.

Even carbon credit companies that do their best aren’t always (are often?) not great. e.g. trees may be planted, but:

• locals’ may have been misappropriated for the purpose
• you might go back five years later and find all the trees were cut down

It seems like there is some progress with that technology that… throws gravel onto beaches or something, to be broken down by waves. Really hope it’s not total BS.

Salt + stir, I recall

Not sure if covering beer in a wet paper towel before it goes into the freezer is a legit method or not

Of course would limit both of these due to unnecessary waste

How do I know so little about programming yet this is still so funny?

Maybe the neuroscientists have some insight:

lol! That’s great.

Imagine if Uber had done it ethically. All the app, none of the shady. Would’ve been a WAY slower start but I want to believe the excellent technology would’ve been enough for them to win. No “broken” card readers, no scamming women in countries with foreign currency (former colleague’s anecdote), no having to lie to get the driver to let you in before telling them later your real destination, reduced racial discrimination…

Also since Google thinks this is OK:

reduced it to the usual (/ working Piped mirror)

The joys of having $xx/mo to reward creators. (Maybe only $.xx goes to the actual creators but still, it feels better!)

Sorry for my difficult to discern tone. Oops! Receipt talk-

My tabs from last night:

My comment two weeks ago:

The BP bribe theory is terribly cunning and nobody else talking about it came up in the first few DuckDuckGo/Google results. Never heard anybody mention it in 2010 either.

Edit: I guess the point would be discussions on the topic may not mention each individual case of bribery because the practice is pervasive.

Ohhh didn’t know about that sense of the word in that context. Interesting!

Do you have any idea what the warez scene is like today?

Also there was a bot on the former Warez-BB dot org that would post scene releases seemingly moments after they pre’d. Imagine those kinds of people are on Telegram or something today…

True!!

Duhhhhh

I’m not much of a tattoo expert. Designs on my body include:

I think you’ve just reconciled two things:

1. Internet always says chiropractors are quacks

2. Multiple reasonable people IRL have praised their own chiropractors

Incredible theory. Did you come up with it on your own? Search engines are blank on this. Want to read more!

Thanks

When LLMs feel sentient or intelligent, that’s your brain playing a trick on you.

Sentient = prob a trick

Intelligent? Maybe a broken clock is right twice a day?

You write a sentence that don’t sound too good. You pretty much know how an author you respect would write it, but can’t remember the syntax & word choice exactly. You ask a model for a dozen revisions of the sentence in disparate styles. One of them clicks: “ooh! That’s what I mean!”

Am I being pedantic to say the LLM can feel intelligent when it nails the exact word choice you were looking for, better than half your social circle could’ve written it? Half your friends aren’t dumb, but the LLM can sometimes sound better than them, so you think: “yeah sounds intelligent!”

Of course…

Later it totally misunderstands some context, needs unbelievable hand-holding and still doesn’t get it, confabulates moronically… and it’s back to stupid! Mmmm glue pizza
