  • Yes there is. I’d probably never have found out about variant Sudoku without Cracking the Cryptic. I get valuable rock climbing tips from professional climbers and coaches on YouTube and employ them often successfully in the climbing gym. I learn about weird weapons from that blacksmith guy that i can use in my TTRPGs and that’s not even taking about the science channels.

    Of course if you don’t curate your subscribed channels and just browse home it’s probably gonna suck and be full of clickbait






  • It is no one’s business yet people make it their business. If OP gets fired because they get seen giving their partner a kiss or a neighbour outs them then, suddenly their identity is an issue at work. Just because OP has not been outed involuntarily yet, doesn’t mean it won’t affect them in the future. And if OP, for fear of getting fired, is keeping their identity a secret, it is actively affecting them. If a gay dude says to their co-worker “my partner made that cake” instead of “my boyfriend made that cake” because mentioning a boyfriend is a risk to their work it is affecting them.




  • There’s a reason why in my comment i talked about LLMs as bad while saying AI in general has it’s uses. The reason being this post being about LLMs.

    I know very well that specialized AI has a lot of uses in medical science and other fields but that’s not really what got hit with all the hype, is it? The hype is managers saw a language model give seemingly better answers to questions than John Rando from 2 blocks down the road so they’re now looking to cut out all the already low paid workers and spoiler alert we will not land in a society where the general public profits from not having work. It will be the same owners of capital profiting as per usual.








  • Ok to make some thing clear because you seem to misunderstand a lot of things. I’m not from the US, I vote greens in my country and despise the liberals of your and my country. When i put quotes around against genocide I do so because as I explain in the whole thing it’s in effect not against genocide as it’s not stopping it plus adding a genocide in your own population. I don’t put the quotes around genocide without the word against because a genocide it is. You are so caught up in your whole spiel that you’ve built a boogeyman you assume me to be without actually reading the text which is already clear when you take my introductory sentence and complain that I’ve not provided the logic before the introduction. When my logic sends like standard laser evil tropes then that’s because it is. I detailed the logic without buzzwords because so many people stop thinking about the why the moment they hear them. And you don’t need more than lesser evil because lesser evil is all you have in your shithole of an electory system. You have no option to actually bring a 3rd party into power. Maybe I’ll get to your other points when I’m actually awake and not lying in bed with a fever but probably not


  • Well sorry but that’s not how logic works

    Our givens are:

    • Trump or Harris will win the White House
    • There is a 3rd party further left (supposedly because she declared her goal as having Harris not win the White House even though she can’t win herself so her goal is effectively to help Trump) that is against the genocide that will not win the White House

    => Harris is left of Trump (if only slightly in most points)

    => The people jumping to a 3rd party that is further left than Harris are only ex Dems.

    => Dems weaken while GOP is not weakening

    => Trump gets more likely voted into the White House the more people vote Green

    => Voting “against genocide” is causing the Party to win that makes Genocide most likely worse (fairly sure Trump said he wants to accelerate it) and will also Genocide its own population, starting by queers, immigrants and women

    If you had a different voting system I’d agree with you that voting 3rd Party is the way to go but you don’t have a voting system where that is anything but a vote thrown away in blind idealism. So yes if you vote 3rd Party I will blame you for worsening an existing and adding another genocide.

    Sorry for shoddy formatting I don’t quite know how to fix it.



  • I’d say they’ve probably long reached the point where they have enough customers around the world to hold the load on their servers fairly constant. The example with one user only taking 5% of a servers load only works for low customer counts, similar to how you can’t count on one wind turbine or solar plant to provide all of your energy but if you have enough of them you can provide a base line of fairly constant energy


  • Please don’t take Clown farmers serious:

    On steam you can give awards to people, one of which is a clownface. If you receive a reward, you gain steam points which you can use to purchase profile customizations, emotes, steam startup movies and maybe more idk. So People started spamming ridiculous shit on steam to be a clown and receive those clown emotes by people taking them serious. The best move is to report them, block them and move on. They also quite often pretend to be marginalized groups to as a “bonus” make those groups look bad which kinda brings despair to me when I see people actually taking them serious and not realizing it’s all fake.
