  • Optimism may lower dementia risk. What have you been optimistic or grateful about recently?

  • People are talking more freely and openly about bringing bodily harm to the super rich, which makes me genuinely feel like things might get better.

  • On the "satire" part:

    If it is "ironocally" taking real payments to "ironically" provide the advertised service to "ironically" do harm, the fine sure call it satire if you really want to but don't make it out to be a defense.

    They are doing harm illegally and should be "ironically" sued to bits. Jail them satirically if it helps.

  • When you know that the password you entered is Correct but still have to deal with BS

    Jump

  • Good tip! Usually do that, but this was full disk encryption, which I have to enter in the terminal and not on anything the password manager integrates with. I could still have gone through typing it on screen and copy/pasting it, though.

    The recommended way, which I am sure to follow next time, is to wait a few days to remove the old password. (Full disk encryption can have any number of passwords added.)

  • When you know that the password you entered is Correct but still have to deal with BS

    Jump

  • I got stuck an utterly embarrassing amount of hours on this the other day because I recently changed my password but managed to set it with a typo.

    I know it is correct, I wrote it down in my password manager, what the heck is going on, have I bern hacked? Do I have extremely specific disk corruption?

    At the end I was wondering if the password algorithm was hitting some dodgy hardware (ram, rdseed32...) and just sat numbly and entered the password over and over again to see if it behaved differently. ...and on one of those attempts I managed to do the same typo and the mystery was solved.

  • Since it's a bank, I would add a bowtie to make the outfit suitably formal.

    Can put it on one of the flipflops.

  • What is a game you can’t understand why its so popular ?

    Jump

  • Any game with grinding where microtransactions can invalidate weeks of grind.

    It's already a big ask to make players find fun in a grind, but some C-level dipshits found a way to stamp that fun out too.

  • You should smile more.

  • ChatGPT, Google Gemini, Google AI Overviews, Grok and Replika AI bots made huge errors before Scottish election, study finds

    Jump

  • Yeah, it's what they do. Generate convincing text. Calling it "errors" makes as much sense as claiming my dice "produced errors" when I lost at yahtzee.

    An illustrative example: https://kucharski.substack.com/p/real-signals-or-artificial-stereotypes

    "First, I’d created 2000 free-text responses and labelled them ‘UK’. Then I copied and pasted the exact same 2000 responses but labelled these ‘US’. Finally, I combined them to create a dataset of 4000 total responses, and jumbled them up.

    Despite the responses being identical for the UK and US, Copilot produced a rich, detailed summary of how US and UK respondents differed."

  • Here's hoping it dispells some of the bullshit shielding other AI vendors from scrutiny over their spending.

  • An AI hate wave is here

    Jump

  • No, AI companies don't "have a PR problem"

    They are the problem. It's in their bones. Harm is their business model. It is not fixable. This is not a case of handing out enough pizza and smiling harder.

  • If I threw a freshly plucked, not yet baked potato on the surface of mars, is it possible that the micro organisms present in the potato would survive and eventually adapt to the new environment?

    Jump

  • You can test at home. Put a potato in a deep freezer and see how the micro organisms do.

    This is not news.

  • What does AI Slop mean to you?

    Jump

  • Slop is anything made by people who don't know what they are doing and why anyone would want it. The people who necessitate laws that "chocolate" products need to contain X% amount of cocoa. Because to them it is "brown fatty thing" so they add brown to fat and ask someone to make a compelling packaging.

    These people believe generative AI works because they can't tell. If you gave them hot mud and called it coffee, they would think it was coffee.

    People who can tell butter from lard, do not think generative AI works at all.

    So yeah genAI can only make slop. Some people believe it is useful and I hate them.
