861·1 month agoFor anyone who doesn’t know, the US is the largest oil producer in the world, more than double any other country. So that’s the reason prices aren’t going up as much as they may be elsewhere, but also what that means is that when we attack Iran us oil company stocks skyrocket. People pay more, billionaires reap, hedge funds reap, the military industrial complex reaps. War as a service.

Not to worry. He’s going to be SLAMMED for this. Perhaps even someone will BLAST him. And since journalism is literal Pokémon moves now he might even be CONFUSED or HYPNOTIZED
Yeah is hospitals were staffed by “wellness practitioners” it would be like
For those who’ve haven’t seen it:

Maybe a few more gold plated jets will do the trick
Yeah there’s a reason Anthropic was founded by basically the entire OpenAI research team in one go, I can’t imagine working under this guy
It’s a grifter running a site called “aishippinglabs.com” which charges 500 euros for a “closed community of likeminded individuals”. He’s selling ai slop and a discord channel to other idiots who will do exactly shit like this with little understanding of what is going on
Yup but also, the idea of submarines providing rescue went out the window. Even the nazis were trying to rescue people at one point, and the allies attacked them after they broadcasted their rescue attempts

The US has the most powerful military in the world. This was just cruelty
Less than half of Americans read a book a year
48.5 percent of adults reported having read at least one book in the past year

And my guess is the vast majority of those that are reading are mostly scooping books from booktok (literary smut) or something off the New York Times bestseller lists
I mean if you don’t flush your toilet though that will happen too. Just climb in and aim for the drain, what’s the worst that can happen
Yeah Anthropic has a whole research department for this

And you’re exactly right. Models at this point are like a trillion floats in complex vectorized matrix math and we don’t really know how that works to produce the output we see

1·2 months agoI think the answer is pretty complex and gets into why online communities in general become hostile, not just Reddit.
First off, there are incredible amounts of money and effort being spent to make people feel tribal and hate each other. Destabilization happens by convincing people that those next to them are at fault for their woes, and ensuring they don’t look up at the strings being pulled.
Second, those who generally aren’t hostile naturally don’t gravitate to places that are, so the gravity of hostility increases by hostile people being there and echoing hostility to those they perceive to be being hostile to them, even if the sentiment is “be less hostile.” It’s baked into meme culture. “Touch grass” is genuinely like “hey go outside, take a breath” at its core, but is now an insult or hostility that gets a reaction of further hostility.
Third, the world is really fucking shitty in ways outside of most people’s control. You can vote, martyr, donate, but generally the world has gotten to a close point to 100s of sci fi stories we’ve written warn us about, and so some people are just doing what the money in item one is spending, the conditioning works. Feels warm to hate someone. But then for those on the opposite they want to hate what they consider stupid.
That being said, people are genuinely shitty often, and it’s foolish to pretend that’s not the case. Open source has often been full of pettiness and bickering. Many a GitHub threads are just arguing about someone who wants a feature and is mad at volunteer developers for not delivering it. I could go on a tirade but I’ll end there
I haven’t seen how Lemmy responds to troubleshooting requests about Linux. But I remember some Linux Reddit communities being full of vitriol of like “don’t use things you don’t understand” or like “distro? version? Hardware specs? Logs? Did you even search?” Which I believe led to people just starting out uncomfortable with asking for help there
And also I’m SURE there will be no backdoors installed in these routers. This was a mutual deal to control information, not just a financial one
