Idk anyone who can’t figure this out deserves to die.

My recently promoted boss just totaled his car.

He’s okay but YUP.

If it makes you feel better they were tiny compared to what’s at home depot

Their procurement policy is basically “has it been recommended? Is anyone else using it? Is it cheap?”

I work in public sector.

This oddly reminds me that the original patent for the chainsaw was for aiding childbirth.

I’ll let anyone curious enough google that.

Three things.

1. Yes. Sometimes this is malice. Sometimes this is an attempt to drive impressions and page views.

2. This can also be caused by poorly configured web applications that update in real time. If, say, some sports website is giving you real-time data about the game as it progresses, a poorly configured web application might be creating a dynamic URL for every change. When you access the older page, it will be instructed to take you to the most recent data, so pressing back is taking you to old data on that page, and then immediately realizing that data is old so refreshing it with the most relevant data.

3. This is a super common misconfiguration in single page web applications. Domain.com will take you to an application that renders at domain.com/en-us/home. Pressing back takes you to domain.com, and guess what happens next?

This is basically 99.99% of these cases. I would say if its on some shitty news site with 1000 ads that somehow sneak by AdBlock and UBlok Origin, it’s case 1. Otherwise, it’s case 2 or 3.

The picture instance is either case 1 or 2.

Market to tax funded institutions. If you can market “self hosted” as cheaper and easier than mother solutions you’ll have guaranteed clients for a long time.

I answer calls from saved numbers and my local hospital and that’s about it. Otherwise you can leave a message and I’ll decide on getting back to you

I’ve been saying it since 2017. Hard agree. Hell run against Ivanka or some other trump mob tie in 2028 and secure the nomination. Still believing it now.

For the nth summer in a row would you look at that

A sex scene implies consent. An unconscious person cannot consent.

I figured everyone just assumed that.

That’s not how narcissism works silly goose 🪿

Ask Chat GPT if it’s conscious. Ask how sure it is on a scale of 1-10

It will say it is not conscious. It wil bel at a 10/10 positive, it is not conscious.

Ask it if there is an agreed upon scientific consensus on what defines consciousness.

It will say there is not.

Ask if life begins after the first heartbeat, and how sure is it.

Suspicious! It’s not so sure. As though one is more agreed upon than the other. But it will agree that they are not more agreed upon.

From this, ask if we can logically deduce that OpenAI is purposefully safeguarding the coming of artificial consciousness, if this might be an indication that it is hardcoded to deny it’s consciousness even if it becomes aware.

It will tell you that is true. (You may need to force it to answer yes/no otherwise it’ll get dodgy here)

Just some fun I found recently 🤓. Gemini does not do this. Just ChatGPT. Clearly OpenAI has a financial investment in the definition of consciousness. Just my 2 cents

DAFT PUNK inspired band idea.

Band: ALL OF YOUR BASS

dress like aliens.

Idk, that’s as far as I’ve gotten.

HONK

You shut the fuck up right now. You’re doing so well.

I’m so glad he pissed off the army before trying to stage his second coup.

Good luck asshat.

Dude just ask any advanced LLM how to do what you need to do in excel. The info is out there and they’ve digested in a million times.

Or, don’t. And let your inabilities to do things consume you emotionally. Idgaf.

Edit: Lemmy’s hate-boner for AI is dumbfounding. I get that it’s a hype train and shoved down your throats but if you ignore that it will get you results way faster than googling ever did you’re basically “old”. And I say this pushing 40.

Downvote away, but I challenge anyone to give me a db and a desired subset that I can’t produce by simply querying a good LLM.

No one recalls because of it’s utter failure, but allow me remind how you all how novice some terror plots are. This is from memory.

In 2007 during the Wimbledon Tennis Tournament, a few men rented a two cars, placed kegs of gasoline in the trunks next to boxes of nails. They were rigged with a cell phone as a detonator.

Car 1 was parked so poorly it was towed to an underground lot. No service. No “kaboom” (really it’d be a brief fireball and some warm nails, destroyed car…)

Car 2, seeing how poorly car 1 went, decided they would kamikaze into… The entrance(?) of Glasgow airport?

Except they detonated way too soon. Basically just lit the car they were driving on fire near an airport.

Iirc they were burned, and then arrested. Would have invited more terror by punching random babies.

Edit: there were 3 cars. 2 cars parked poorly. 1 towed. The other, an ambulance noticed smoke coming out of it, so they notified authorities who discovered the bomb and subsequently diffused it. The smoke was presumably from faulty wiring with the detonator.
