Now we’re judging articles for quantity instead of quality?

Who uses “lame” in 2024? It was so pervasive during the Digg times.

The irony is that I’ve been antagonized for looking for other examples of AI that are not related to LLMs. As in “lol LLMs are AI!!!” and I have to reply with “yeah, I know that, but what other types are being used out there?” “just shut up with your anti-LLM stuff!”

Mindless negativity has arrived - at least in lemmy.world.

I have some tech-related subscriptions, so I check those out every now and then, but they have few new posts. So when I browse the Popular section, oy… corporations bad, climate change bad, war bad, economy bad. (Not saying it’s not true, I just want a place I can browse and escape all that for five minutes.)

And some users (even mods!) have an “all-or-nothing” attitude too, which is infuriating because they won’t drive me away from the cause, but they may drive away others with less patience.

For example, I say “I support the blue color. Now, I wonder, if metallic blue with a purple hue is really a true blue? And how? Trying to learn. Just curious…” and then someone says “YOU JUST OUTED YOURSELF AS A BLUE HATER!!!”

Thank you for this. I watched the whole thing. It’s undeniable that Raygun can do a lot of things I can’t, but her performance paled in comparison with the other competitors. Three four times I got the goosebumps when the other competitors did truly amazing moves!

Ok, let’s see:

1. The parent posted didn’t mention relativity. Just that a planet was moving at a fraction of c, which is a specific amount (let’s say, 10,000 km/s)

2. Since the parent poster is talking about the sun, and how such a planet with such velocity could affect it (the sun), then it’s easy to assume that the planet is moving quickly relative to the sun itself.

So, the poster’s question is equivalent to saying “if a feather collides with my body, it may do nothing. But what if the feather is super-super-super fast?! What would it do to my body??”

To me, bots are just noise if not summoned directly. Like when you’re having a conversation with your friend, then a loud roomba comes in and tries to clean the very space you’re sitting at.

“Hey bot, tell me facts about the article OP posted.”

“Sure! [etc, etc]”

Versus:

“HEY I KNOW YOU HAVEN’T ADDRESSED ME DIRECTLY BUT YOU SAID THE WORD ‘BUTT’ 17 TIMES TODAY!”

You’re missing the point, but that’s fine. I’m in a good mood today, so I’ll stop things here. Let’s talk about something else.

How’s your day going?

The language is not clear.

" As a vegetarian, which of these three options you want the least and which you want the most? You MUST choose to continue:

1. Chicken sandwich.
2. A kick in the balls.
3. Pork sandwich.

"

You are saying that a reasonable person (vegetarian in this case, and disclaimer: I am not vegetarian) would say “well, I want a kick in the balls the least, so I’ll choose that. Now, fuck, I HATE chicken sandwiches and I HATE pork sandwiches. They both make me puke. But if I have to choose, I guess I’ll go for the chicken sandwich. Hey pollster, I want the chicken sandwich the most.” And the pollster writes “Chester wants the chicken sandwich the most.” Yeah, very clear.

128 bits?

It’s the “most wanted” language. I don’t blame common folks associating “most wanted” with “I want this!” when in fact they don’t mean it.

Weird that they used quora of all places this news was reported.

And what is that reason?

Many things us humans do are “unfortunate” because we don’t know any better. 2000 years from know, humans might say that it was “unfortunate” that humans used fossil fuels, or wore high heels. Instead of regretting the past, be the change you want to be.

I agree with you, but I’m still curious.

How do we handle dates before epoch 0?

Edit: I guess we’ll use negative numbers.

if someone is too stupid to figure out how to vote they probably shouldn’t be voting in the first place.

Not what you said at the beginning, but if we take this new one, let’s just say that it’s a false equivalency and call it a day.

You’re no better than the disconnected billionaires and politicians.

Says a group of people don’t deserve to vote.

Claims he wants people to vote.

Your logic is even weirder.

Oh okay.

Your opinion is very weird, friend.

when I asked if they changed their mailing address and checked their voting status, we discovered they weren’t.

They weren’t what?
