Exactly. People always have a bias or interest. Even if, globally speaking, I or you care for the humanity of all people and the victims of all conflicts. Time, space and resources in general are limited. So our bias, attention span, education, etc. Create a background filter for what we dedicate our time and attention.

This is why the “of course” clause in leftist rethoric always have to apply. Free Palestine, of course has to necessarily mean a care for all human suffering across the globe. It is implied by default. It is just this three seconds are dedicated to this issue in particular.

When people have objections they usually include them. Like terfs who can’t shut up about how much they hate trans people even when, on the surface, they seem to be using feminist rethoric. Antisemitic assholes will always include a qualifier to insult Jewish people. And even reject other areas of pro-palestinian discourse. Because they want to focus on the hate, the positive message is being coopted. Just like feminist messages are coopted to hate on trans women. It becomes obvious that the point is to promote hate, not to support people being oppressed.

I love how this phrase out context makes absolutely no sense, and might as well be alien to 99% of the population of the world:

Resolution and frame rate are no longer tied to the PS4 hardware, while the game supports NVIDIA DLSS 4.5, AMD FSR 3.1/4.1, and Intel XeSS, alongside native-resolution DLAA and FSR Native AA. NVIDIA RTX 40 Series GPUs can also use DLSS Frame Generation, while AMD FSR 3 Frame Generation is supported on Radeon RX 5000 Series and newer GPUs.

Hell, it might as well be Chinese for over half of gamers.

EDIT: try to say it out loud, it is just gibberish and random letters. Doesn’t even sound like english.

Genre fatigue is very real. Hollywood treats every fad as the next gold rush, and it has been destroying the movie experience ever since. There are some diamonds in the pile of coal, but it is still mostly just coal. Burns fast, has no staying power. Burn it all at once, and you lose the diamonds along with the pile.

They’ll let you know. My dog has moods, each has their own body language. Sometimes she wants head and ear scritches, so she’ll bump her head into my hands and keep them there until I start petting. Sometimes she wants belly rubs, she will roll on her back in front of me or on the couch/bed. If I ignore her, she will switch positions into my line of sight and repeat. She also sometimes is not in the mood for petting, and my approaches will be dismissed. She turns her back and ignores me. She learned to signal her walking leash all proper and formal on her own when she wants to go for a walk. She sits in front of the leash pointing with her snout and waits until I notice. She will bark if I’m not around to call my attention.

Sometimes I stop on purpose to see her reaction. If she’s okay with stopping the activity she will leave or regain a neutral posture. If she wants more she will tap me with her paw until I resume. It’s very cute. Dogs are definitely very communicative if they want something.

Transport Fever 3 just came out. I just sunk 12 hours and plan to sink even more. They perfected the tycoon genre.

The company developing audacity have done similar surveys for other software. No matter the result, they always add some version of it. I love the main UX designer’s philosophy, he hasto done miracles with other stale products. But the company is squarely pro-AI oriented.

That is not the implementation of any LLM.

Read the fucking article, it is almost literally what this person is doing to “torture” the LLMs.

Why are genetics the key requirement to feel pain?

I have never claimed such, and I refuse to engage with your strawman.

What part of:

If pain is true:
  Token =- 1

Is not equivalent to a chicken feeling pain do you not understand? Is just math on a data base.

Those are not equivalent, at all. Bird share genetics with us and all animals. Mathematical models do not. If I write “I died here” on a bathroom stall, no one actually died. How is this so hard to understand?

The LLM model of pain used here is just a name. It is the equivalent of writting “if ‘pain’ > 0 then ‘suffering’= true” in a programming language. Numbers have no feelings.

Except that’s not what’s happening. It is a rough mathematical model that approximates the behavior of an extremely minuscule part of a brain from a really narrow definition of it.

It is a model so far away from the real thing that if it were a map of the globe it would look like what a 3 year old would draw.

The Turing test was never, ever, about consciousness. Nor was the Chinese room and other similar thought experiments.

Now, this one is incredibly useful. Picture an author who writes a vivid first person description of a character surviving extreme torture. Has any real pain or suffering occurred? Was the author tortured as a result of having written that?

We can only suppose the author, at the very least, imagined what it would be like to be tortured. This is where LLMs are at. They are not the thing, they are an algorithmic emulation of what the thing might have written if it would’ve written about an experience. By all accounts, the experience didn’t happen. The most we can interpret is that it was emulated.

There’s a popular misconception that lobbying doesn’t exist in the European Union. It does. Big money is constantly trying to sway and buy politicians into their interests, everywhere, and their interest are always right leaning social control. There’s also a right wave going on in the world. The EU is leaning right, and with it there’s a raise in popularity of dumb backwards legislation.

What is that reply even supposed to mean? I’m telling you I do all those things you say Linux can’t do. On a daily basis, I have for 15 years of continuous Linux use. Your facts are wrong, check yourself. The only one who doesn’t seem to know how Linux works here is you.

The move was to self-host storage. I moved my drive backups to a NAS and now it doesn’t matter how much storage the phone has. It can send anything I want to conserve or fetch whatever I need to use. It is a phone, it’s biggest strength is mobile connectivity, so it doesn’t need to have all the storage on device. Plus I can upgrade the NAS as needed and use it for other stuff.

There are Linux distributions that come with auto-mount configured by default. Wallpaper issue was desktop environment dependent but hasn’t been an issue in like two decades. Linux can mount natively both Windows and Mac proprietary file systems. It has been able to for decades as well.

Everything you stated as a fact is false. You’re either lying or are ignoring something obvious. If you don’t like Linux and want to talk smack, go ahead. But at least use criticism from this decade.

Shared drive is actually not a problem with Linux. Linux is multiboot by default. You can share any number of systems in a single drive as long as they all play by the same ground rules. It is Microsoft and apple who decided they won’t play nice with nobody else and that their users belongs entirely to them. Instead of, you know, the user owning the computer and doing whatever they deem fit with their drive.

I just noticed they removed the button to report ads as inappropriate.

Lots of questions posted here are not genuine questions. Instead they are socio political comments trying to manufacture gotcha replies for controversy.

Those are not stupid questions, they’re rethorical questions. They are not what the community is for.

“No stupid questions” means that genuine good faith seek of knowledge or dispelling basic ignorance will not be shamed. Political rethorics will be shamed though. Thoroughly downvoted and mocked.

It has nothing to do with advertising. The phrase refers to bias and stereotyping. It is not about the book, it is about the person doing unfair judgment based on superficiality instead of knowledge.

There are no covers that are not carefully chosen for the book they accompany. The source of error lies on the beholder making false assumptions about what the book is, then passing judgment on said book they haven’t read based on limited information and most likely incorrect assumptions.

The phrase calls people to check themselves and their own biases before making decisions with limited information. Or at least to search for some more data with curiosity instead of bias.

To be a creepy perv. It was obvious since first revealed.

Also, Google glasses were just as creepy. Thy worked in the technical sense. Complete social and market failure though.
