Am I the only one who finds Colbert not funny at all? I can't believe it's not laughtrack.

If they ever secure power my fate is basically sealed. I’ve accepted that. It’s not slippery slope to be clear eyed about reality.

Well, I'm not sure which out-group you're a part of to conclude this. I don't think things are that bleak. For most of the out-groups being targeted, a coalition exists in the urban areas where they'll at least be tolerated. A bastion of progressives or people with common identities to rally around. It's hard to imagine places like NYC, LA, etc. otherwise.

But this is why I hate politics. Everyone who organizes, screws around with power. I don't believe there's any "side" that will stand with me in a time of need, or any group to rally around. The only people who will stand for my interests is myself and the few people I can persuade. If you're this alone, the only thing you can really do is try not draw attention. Don't even bother voting.

I tried my best to one-up GPT-4chan in terms of toxicity. With my meager programming skills, I managed to parse comment-response pairs from Reddit's API data archive. The most toxic subreddits all there on pushshift. Then I fine-tuned the model using a rented GPU, and it cost me 7 USD total.

I made an angry feminist bot- the funny thing about it is that you won't get banned for it on most forums because its so toxic without breaking any rules and it's hard to tell that it's a bot. DM me if you want to try it out.

Yeah, it also doesn't help that in SK, men are conscripted to the military for years and enter the workforce with somewhat of a disadvantage.

"Misogyny" is half the story.

What purpose would there be in gaslighting something like this out of nowhere? Genuine question.

Most people, including myself, prefer their own version of reality. You are promoting a version of reality that I do not find tasteful at all. With conflicting realities, meaningful disagreement is impossible and the only thing I can do is question the narratives that oppose my own.

More generally, ego also plays a huge part in why people do this. Apple has a significant following that will defend its every decision. It's brand has become personal identity for a lot of people. To the extent where I've been seeing news articles over the past two years about teenagers being bullied for using Android. This also happens to be the reason why people point their finger at Apple; because Apple users are the main group with such a distinct identity.

What is this gaslighting you're trying to pull here? You're really going to pretend that Apple fanboys don't exist and instead start criticising some sort of perceived toxicity from a "hate cult" against Apple? That's before you get into some bizarre Google strawman. The reality is that these Apple fanboys with values antithetical to software freedom exist, and want walled gardens everywhere.

I don't know what to say. It's taught in a typical American economics class nowadays. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UkXI-zPcDIM

And what do you know about Nash Equilibriums?

But it was. With Don Lemon and the Cuomo.

This answer isn't satisfying. Society, law, and morality all exist because of empathy. You can't count on empathy to solve any more problems than it already has, or promote the value of empathy where it can not stand on it's own.

Yeah. I usually go to the Playstore to buy out all the In-App purchases and support development, but this is really discouraging.

For Google photos/Contacts in particular, the gallery app was good because it would constantly ask to sync photos to the cloud.

I came across a post a day or so ago basically saying that the 19.1 version still has broken federation, and the another fix hasn't come quickly since it's still holiday season. @shortwavesurfer@monero.town @VolunTerry@monero.town @tusker@monero.town

Actually no, went to lemmy.ml and couldn't find your comment.

How dangerous can it be to run an old OS anyways? Been doing it for years. Might actually be a good thing now that the forced updates are gone.

It makes them too much money. When they're charging tens of thousands for a battery replacement, and the only way to fix the car without getting banned from the charging network is to go to the dealership... this will never get fixed.

Skeptical. As of August 2023, there are scientists still struggling with simulating C. Elegans- a single celled organism.

OpenAI is known for ChatGPT, which is a text generator that works for things like writing a haiku. Though OpenAI also has a image generating AI (DALLE), it doesn't seem nearly as popular as its competitors Midjourney and SDXL. People just assume ChatGPT is OpenAI's main product, but they are actually competing on everything.

Now let's hope that the batteries aren't provided in overpriced proprietary formats with a software lock attached to them like Apple's iPhone screens.
