General Discussion / Re: Emotional Responses to War in Ukraine - Trollbait 2.0
« on: March 18, 2024, 07:45:47 pm »I think the "everyone who don't like Putin go and vote at the exact same hour" was a smart thing. It gives lone sticks the chance to see that there are many other sticks like them and that they aren't as alone as they sometimes feel.Yes, it was a good bit of organizing that could lead to future organizing. Journey of a thousand miles single step kind of thing.

The truth about AI is that it's a tool. And if you like the answer, you think it's a great tool.
If you don't like an answer then it's an awful tool. Look at how various groups have used various models, surveys, assessments, recommendations, and pure data in the past. As tools.
And the garbage dumpsters are locked up to keep people from putting things in the dumpsters for free, NOT to prevent anyone from taking anything OUT of the dumpsters. Letting people haul away your trash FOR FREE is Good Business.

Making it so only slightly smarter people can access the fontal cortex connection to their brain owned by China is a good thing, in my opinion.
...and if X could be banned at the same time, I would 100% agree with that.

To be fair, a century ago, the scandal sheets were full of discussion about many and varied members of the multiple tiers and connections with British Aristocracy, along with the Nobility of several other countries.
Now, we only have to occasionally hear about one British dysfunctional family. The US actually has far more scandalous rich folks in charge. So hey, if anyone gains some satisfaction from studying the Life and Times of British Monarchy, have fun.

I note the US Navy is going to spend $1 Billion dollars to build the exact same naval drones that Ukraine designed with crowdfunding.
Don't worry Ukraine: You will probably get a few million dollars out of it, probably.

« on: March 12, 2024, 09:58:57 pm »that's fair you can ask to generate an image at every turn and will do the only thing is that gpt doesn't do parallel processing so it's annoyingly slowI usually have it set at every 4 turns. I manually generate images when they're blurry or the character has updated their outfit (and I care).

I'm no chemist, but I assume the proximity of -130 Celsius and 30 Celsius hexes is possible depending on the materials at -130 Celsius and the atmosphere which you described as quite thick, plus each hex actually being quite big.
But it seems weird, so it'll probably get patched out of you make a bug report.

« on: March 12, 2024, 09:11:46 pm »And here we are, giving turd people what they want: More publicity. And they ain't paying rent for the space they take up in our collective conscience.I think I just feel a bit more sympathy for people who joined the family. She fell in love with William, ‘t ain’t her fault that comes with infinite scrutiny.
I mean, they went out of their way to become media celebrities and monetize their existence, beyond just being royals. I don't have sympathy for people who court public attention for personal gain then complain about it. It's like a Youtuber putting their opinion out there for views and ad revenue and then resenting the response to it. Or someone showing their ass on instagram for views and then resenting that people have opinions about showing your ass for views.
Don't want the attention? Stop trading on it. You don't selectively get to choose what kind of attention you get when you bait the entire world.
