You’re causing me to question their tech nerd wizard credentials

I loved the animated series too as well as the games and lore.

A lot of the old shit was just left in a field to rot. Someone came along and said see all this shit over here anyone want it? No one did.

We’re going to need some legitimate citations to back your claim about “a lot of the old shit” being left in fields that people passed by and didn’t take for themselves.

In October, he was one of nine senators to vote against legislation intended to outlaw flag burning and other forms of flag defacement and joined Bob Dole and Orrin Hatch, the other two Republicans to vote against the bill,

That’s awesome. At least he stood for free speech…

in voicing a preference for a constitutional amendment.

People, myself included, aren’t fond of lemmy.ml because it pretends to be a privacy-centric instance but it’s actually run by people who defend any and every criticism of Russia and China under the guise of critiquing capitalism.

They commonly say that any bad news about China or Russia is western propaganda while everything from their state-run “news” platforms is gospel.

They’re unable to say that two things are true at once, like capitalism is a pure shit system AND China and Russia are fucked for a million reasons specific to them.

People get banned from their server for saying that China is anything but a utopian dream.

And then, yes, people unfairly assume that you must be cool with all that because you’re using their instance. If you’re not married to the idea of staying there, I’d suggest deleting your account and using a different instance.

No, it’s full proof! Scientific papers are always saying how the type and cause of everyone’s depression is exactly the same. That’s why any primary care specialist, psychiatrist, psychologist, or counselor will tell you to save your time and money on medication, therapy, diet, exercise, relationships, and self love, and to focus exclusively on eating liver. Still feel low? You’re not eating enough liver!

Looking at your post history, I think you’re a troll but it’s too hard to tell these days.

You say that like $17 is a reasonable price to pay for 2 preprocessed garbage burgers, 2 little cardboard cups of fries, and 2 cups of sugar water.

We use words to describe our thoughts and understanding. LLMs order words by following algorithms that predict what the user wants to hear. It doesn’t understand the meaning or implications of the words it’s returning.

It can tell you the definition of an apple, or how many people eat apples, or whatever apple data it was trained on, but it has no thoughts of it’s own about apples.

That’s the point that OOP was making. People confuse ordering words with understanding. It has no understanding about anything. It’s a large language model - it’s not capable of independent thought.
