I knew one that said “Meh” so I assume they all do it.

When he said “Her husband…” and another skink came out, I lost it. I hope they had a wedding. I hope there was a reception. I want to know the guest list.

I just called out “Red Eyed Crocodile Skinks!” to no one. Fucking love these guys. They say “Meh” when you poke 'em.

When I start to feel irked I imagine it’s Colin Robinson on the other side so there’s no reason to engage.

Oh shit I guess I lost to your superior logic. Wonder why all these people keep dying, then.

I predicted this. I said if we ever tried to block politics it would devolve into nitpicking what is and isn’t political.

But to answer the question: If your computer shit is about due for a upgrade, don’t wait.

Grocery prices would probably keep going up no matter who got elected, so gardening supplies would be a good investment over time. Along with gardening comes the peripheral skills of cooking and preserving when it’ll hurt your soul to see any of your sweet baby tomatoes go to waste.

I’m an artist. Once you go method, you don’t go back.

The left goes low when you threaten their lives, the right goes low when you question their actions.

This is sexist. I know at least two women who’d follow a mysterious voice, baggies and tongs in hand, hoping for more taxidermy material.

I’m not scared of getting pregnant, breaking a bone or being gay, if that’s what you mean. Racism is… slightly better than the US.

You can visit and stay, though. Like my drug dealer.

Depends on where you go and what you do. Foreign investment is a problem in the big cities, small towns saw a surge in prices when everyone left the office for lower costs of living, but they’ve stabilized. It’s not good, not horrible.

Speaking as a Canadian, if you feel like your personal safety and bodily autonomy is threatened in a way that can be improved by moving here, you are welcome. It’s called the Charter of RIGHTS and Freedoms. We absolutely have rights.

Hey.

I’d like to get into how both me and OP are talking about how fast AI, not just LLMs, is scaling, and the potential it has across a variety of industries - most concerning to me is it’s use by investment firms. But I need to go to the barber because I already have enough split hairs.

I do. I did get a little lost in the weeds with my point though, as I was talking in a more general sense about how AI is already powerful and dangerous - because AI safety is a subject in this thread.

That there are AI art generators that use licensed art and/or public domain and open licence images. People so deep in the “AI art is theft” shtick they don’t even wanna hear it.

What we see in AI as an average consumer is like the RC hotwheels to a state of the art tank being used by big corps.

Just imagine that if an early LLM can fool an engineer into thinking it’s sentient, what a state of the art system can do, one designed to predict the market, run propaganda bots on social media or straight up manufacture news stories with the footage to back it up.

The AI being used by big corporations is so advanced, it’s one of the reasons countries have been trying to digitally isolate themselves. It’s really not an if, it’s a when.

I’ve seen these barbeque boats floating around tourist spots. They have a grill in the center, seats all around and a driver steers them while they cook and eat. So you get one of those, “accidentally” spill some lighter fluid all over and have a pack of hot dogs for a cover story. After that, it’s as simple as lighting the grill and riding the flames to valhalla.
