Yeah McDonald’s is purely for on the road. Other food in its price range is leagues above. There’s better options on the road too, but McDonald’s is so small and minimal, it’s easy to eat with one hand and steer with the other; no mess.

Meanwhile the unemployment rate continues to be troublingly low, begging the question, “If not for immigration, who’s going to fill the new fancy All-American manufacturing industries?”

There’s an increased likelihood of a party changing and causing a break in stalemate situations. Doesn’t mean it’ll happen, but there is an increased likelihood.

Political options aren’t ruined by two-party system, so there’s flexibility.

Options and diversity generally results in progress and balance.

It will burst. AI is improving at the same rate it always has and no one’s surprised, just LLMs have gotten attention from normal users who seem to think “this is AI”.

For actual AI, nothing has changed. You still need extremely well governed data and lots and lots of controlled training, lots and lots of condition farming and resolving, all at considerable cost not worth it for BAU, just AI-soecific projects.

It’s already bursting, as people realise what is AGI and what is non-logic LLMs and why the latter has limited use, especially with awful mass “training”.

The most realistic outcome is that LLMs are able to assist in increasing the pace of AGI.

They’ll blame this for more ads and enough people will say, “Oh, that makes sense.”

You’re right. Could literally design anything and people that know nothing about any of it could figure it out quickly. But instead, a salad of sex preferences, gender, race, kink, specific US cities, all appearing to be under the Intersex insignia.

It’s always seemed so bad to me that it’s more likely to be done by an anti-woke troll or someone like Michael Scott discovering Pride Month.

It’s just offensive. Obviously to the eyes, but also to any group being shoved together within its borders.

It has its ups and downs

This could be asked of a thousand million other products in the past three years.

But hey, here I am replying to this comment from my AI powered pants zipper, so…

They all sprung up in that period where flags were trendy. Every little camp had to have one to feel like a singled-out tribe—and, no, this isn’t just kink flags. This meant many would be flag designers overnight.

The result is there’s some really fugly designs out there in the wild now and the idiots can’t go back. But most people are over flag phase now, so you’re unlikely to ever see this and most others out in the wild.

Nothing fails more at its job than a pride flag that people have no idea what is. It’s almost irony.

And is this one ugly? Oh, yes. Enough to turn a person straight.

Imagine marriage is your identity and you do things based on it.

Did indeed. Edit to fix and added a linky.

Historically speaking; Israel badder. Both bad; Israel much badder.

Just ask the locals around those parts, not the US media outlets.

Iran is actually quite insular and highly defensive. Historically (modern) not very offensive compared to most other nations known for involvment in conflicts.

See for yourself.

When I was in Australia, this happened…

I wish I could steal code. Everything I do is so situation-specific. I save my own snippets “for next time” but they never seem to come up again lol

It becomes very fatiguing. Especially when the same article is posted in several places.

To make things worse, it’s a trash article. It’s literally just quoting another article. So it’s bot scraped, bot written, title generated with zing and spooned to idiot cohorts on places like this, simply to garner traffic.

There are a lot of simple users on Lemmy, though they’d hate to admit it. But we have this post in this community with those comments, soooo… GG, big brains 👍

Yeah. Took me like 16, 17 years to realise I could put a bit of TP down first to stop the splash making such noise and firing back at my asshole.

Yeah, same. Long-time user of an em-dash—love a cheeky en-dash in my ranges too. But now LLMs are using them all the time, out of context, and with spaces on either side.

Is nothing safe?! Next it’ll be semicolons!

What Deere did was even more harsh. They tried to block off not only self repair, but third-party firmware that made the tractors work better, especially older ones that were out of warranty.

That’s straight up a major federal crime in my country. So that should give Americans an idea how balanced their scale of justice is at the moment.

The consumer and supplier ALWAYS get equal and fair protection, lest a business becomes based on ripping people off with product instead of the product itself.

Eeh, not a rare find when overseas. Most people don’t “tour” overseas, but you frequent busloads of these people.
