flandish

it’d edited and crisply in a wonderful meme format.

is Nura the singular form of Nuru, the massages I keep wondering about?

to be fair, we should not bail out ANY industry. if you fail at capitalism so bad you need a bailout- tough shit.

in what way can an AI be tortured? start with defining torture, its relationship to living beings, and then try to translate that to a piece of software. software, fyi, has no a priori, or even posteriori, emotion; for it cannot have emotion.

as someone who has dealt with over 20 years of pulling victims, alive and dead, from crashes caused by drunks (am firefighter not terrible driver..) I can say this won’t help shit. Just give more data (profit) to corporations and be used in rights violating ways.

i wish i could escape the ecosystem but ive been in it for decades now and have no idea how to: de apple but still retain coherence and not need to treat my phone like a linux pc i can de mac and use a linux pc; i do on my servers at home fine. de google. see phone concerns. i can happily self host a cloud. but whatever. sigh. no clear checklist path. thing is: i am a sw engineer already and have lazily enjoyed my phone being something i dont have to worry about day to day.

that doesn’t answer my question.

don’t forget: the only real party is “capitalist”. the reps and dems are just sister parties under the capitalist party. they are the same effective party. even if you think they’re not, because one openly blows up girls schools and the other does it in a way you never had to notice …

state control is actually “public” or “nationalized” right? - not to be confused with “publicly traded” which is not the same as “the public runs the business” (as it would if a state ran it, being comprised of the public)

“Hallucinations” are things humans do. An AI can only just be wrong. Even when it makes up data, it’s just a stochastic parrot.

reminding folks there ain’t no war but class war is not a form of “both sides” it’s a form of “grow the fuck up and stop pretending one side is better.”

welp it is my understanding that a degoogled andrioid os phone involves a bunch of sysadmin steps to keep stuff updated and secure? i could be wrong!

it was never your phone to begin with.

? it already has lol

great write up. thanks! i use protonmail for my domain emails. but will look into e/os/ and fair phone when this iphone dies. the other things i’ll look into, too! (i dont so much care abt photos but it couldnt hurt to keep them backed up, i reckon )

yeah when it comes to large corps there is (usually) no escape its ties to zionism. :/

thanks for the input!

Hedwig approves. His inch is still very angry.

i run custom apps on my mac all the time. i write some of them.

that’s all i wanted; was for you to actually coherently write a soup to nuts explanation of your thoughts. i agree with you.

where?

ok. so I think what you see as commenter wants to call them lies is descriptive of what the _corporations are pushing_ (as “hallucinations” but what a reasonable person would call lies) In other words it’s a “meta” conversation that I concur with. A LLM cannot do human things obviously, but “sales” can portray them as such. In my day to day usage I make an actual effort to refer to that stuff that is wrong from an LLM as wrong. Not with human focused words.

I concur.

is any of that not allowed somewhere? you answered the “what” not the “where.”

nice try glowie. (is that still ok to call fbi agents, or has the right coopted Terry’s terms?)

it’s the rule.

this was posted in a thread not in the sidebar. please explain.

that’s sad but not surprising these days.

what a windy jerk.

just fyi the internet archive storage is most definitely in a data center or 3. your hospitals use data centers, schools too. just not at the scale of ai types.

pfft. weak. use the steamer port and some ldh on a blue blitz. but run it through a pump first. static pressure on a hydrant can be crap unless it’s the lowest hydrant in town, thanks to gravity. also it’s often dirty for the first minute. remember to flush your plugs, ppl.

get back to the scarf! i have a blanket im working on too lol. but yeah. i think from our sw/eng industry, ai is at the least the one with the steepest destructive “curve”, i suppose. ty for your reply.

none of those are examples of things in our current era doing as much damage as ai lol. can you not comprehend the comment i made?

well yeah. i love me some foss stuff. but from an os level, the footprint and response to cves from an oss os vs a corporate one i can see going both ways. in short, i should pick up and try a graphene one.

what makes you think i don’t use ai?

bog standard capitalism, really.

because capitalists are truly a different species so his peers don’t see him as gay, just as $.

gen x here. same plan. or i thumb it only on roads going south since it’s warmer than new england.

the thing is - no other tool in our industry, and others, out there involves as much active destruction in both the working class and environment in its use. that’s it. that’s the bit.

i tend to call that stuff “ML” (machine learning) instead if AI thanks to the dumbass marketing of today. been working in ML for decades.

please stop joining the military

i like the reminder to not work or even answer contact from work if you are not paid though…

? your statement makes no sense. a) i didnt vote for biden, nor trump. b) why do you want nazis to stay in power? that’s a pos move.

they are saying it through votes. a vote for biden was a vote to keep his ways going. same as a vote for trump. or a vote for harris. or a write in. it’s literally how intention is said by the public.

the newst tool happens to be the one doing the most destruction, so… yes.

yes. indeed. two things can be true at once.

i can’t play much new on my legion go, and i am ok with this. just restarted factorio last night. still can’t do it with default bug settings but hey thats ok.

lenin wrote a pretty good book about just this kind of pressure. marx did too.

does anyone truly believe they respect those delete requests?

except they’re not the same. at all. one comes with the phone she got from the walmart with a prepaid card and she’s not even really logged into it.
