Its just a ball rolling down a hill trying to find the lowest point, but its like a super fancy ball with a ton of rules, and the hills are really detailed with like little walls and bridges and stuff.

“and then I exploited that fact rather than helping people” I guess went unspoken

Well none of this applies to me since I would never never intentionally impact the profits of a corporation (it’s a crime). But for some sort of filthy radical out there with nothing on their deranged mind but to harm our great society, this is eminently solid advice.

Oh yeah, the number one least recommended thing would be to dress in dark neutral colors with a face covering, and arrive on something like a common generic bicycle or on foot. That might make it difficult to bring such a person to justice, which would be a shame.

Apropos of nothing, for your own safety, just be aware that high-powered hand-held blue or green lasers (1W+) are extremely dangerous and can permanently damage both human eyes and camera sensors beyond repair.

Just remember to never ever buy a high-powered blue or green laser pointer (1 watt+), which sadly are easily available many places online, because were you to do that, and accidentally turn it on while it was pointed at, say, a camera sensor, you could permanently damage that sensor and make it unusable!

He’s more machine now than man; twisted and evil.

There’s going to be a massive boom in local llms if we get there. Already I have replaced ~80% of my paid token usage with a small local model running on my 64gb macbook pro, but being able to run a full-fidelity multi-hundred-billion parameter llm locally would be a game changer for my use case at least.

I still lurk on reddit but I figure with an adblocker on all I’m really doing is costing them bandwidth and lowering the revenue-per-user that they get to report to their investors. Plus r/conservative is the single best place I’ve found on the internet to keep track of the specific swirling toilet bowl known as right-wing ‘culture’

With the caveat that this is all make-believe, it seems like your typical ghost is anchored to a location, not some specific piece of wood or plaster within that location that could be replaced thus “removing” the ghost. They are well known for passing through physical matter as if it weren’t there, so the idea that they would be somehow pegged to a specific piece of physical matter doesn’t seem right. Ghosts are also known for haunting things are newly built on the site of old haunted houses or graveyards, which also points to not being able to dissolve ghosts simply by destroying or altering the physical area around the site of the haunting. Thanks for coming to my lecture lol.

It wasn’t that long ago that doctors had to go grave robbing at night, risking their careers and freedom, just to be able to get access to the human cadavers needed to advance medical science. Christianity has always had a real problem with people adding or removing things from the human body, even dead bodies, and the effects of that are still echoing all around the western world in many many ways.

There are many alternatives to the world wide web. Familiarize yourself.

Personally, it’s people who get answers from some so-called “book” or “university” or “expert” that grind my gears. Like think for yourself maybe?

Cause people gotta eat, dog. They got kids and bills and shit. Ain’t complex. Until it is more economically uncomfortable for workers to not strike, than it is to strike, there is very likely no strike, if you get me.

Wow I bet this one kills at the vet’s club

My Thinkpad X1 Carbon 6th Gen is quite repairable thank you very much, and it was like 400 bucks, and it comes with an i7, 16gb of ram, and a 256gb ssd. It’s only marketing that has people convinced they will fall behind unless they have the latest and greatest.

Yeah, humans still occasionally acquire important small pieces of paper or plastic that are convenient to stow in some type of small container that can be keep on the person, what a shock.

I wonder how much he’s “tipping” these 7(!) people he’s asked to work for free at his daughter’s party. I do like the boldness of the ask though, not like asking one-by-one “hey is there a DJ who might be ok working for tips?” but “is there an entire event company out there willing to do this for no cost?”

The Streisand Effect is very rarely understood by the kind of emotional infants Trump prefers to surround himself with.

They are useful for doing the kind of boilerplate boring stuff that any good dev should have largely optimized and automated already. If it’s 1) dead simple and 2) extremely common, then yeah an LLM can code for you, but ask yourself why you don’t have a time-saving solution for those common tasks already in place? As with anything LLM, it’s decent at replicating how humans in general have responded to a given problem, if the problem is not too complex and not too rare, and not much else.
