  My in-laws have had an utterly terrible experience with Samsung kitchen appliances.

  Not because of tech, mind you, but because they’re shitty and break down. Don’t buy Samsung.

  I’m just here to roast OP for their incredible job at censoring names.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨2hot2handle⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes, actually. The autoignition point is the temperature at which a given material will spontaneously (as in, without a spark or the like) catch fire, given a source of oxygen.

  Part of the actual answer to that question is that, while violence is often loud and public (and sometimes government sanctioned on massive scales), sex is something that is usually done in private, intimate settings without observers.

  Literally tags posts with “Proud misandrist”.

  I found a couple others before this one, but they were almost entirely just reblogs of TERF shit.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon tries to meet girls at college⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I dunno, I’m sure if I looked hard enough I could find a woman’s blog proudly declaring that she’s a misandrist.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon tries to meet girls at college⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m pretty sure before the term ‘misandry’ was coined, it was just called ‘man-hating’. The concept has been around for a while.

  As a counterpoint to misogyny? Sure, it’s utter BS, but that doesn’t mean you should paint everyone using the term with the same brush.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon tries to meet girls at college⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  What? How could they be the same? They’re different things.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon tries to meet girls at college⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  So is ‘misanthropy’ also not a real concept, since anyone who is a misanthropist is by definition not hating on an oppressed minority?

  Except Frenchmen and Africans also fought and died for this country.

  That’s because the TVs are subsidized by selling your stolen info.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  EA and Ubisoft are really duking it out for the first prize in the worst game company competition.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨He's camera shy⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  …Italians?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon isn't a Microsoft fan⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I even tried to migrate mine, and it failed. After deleting my Mojang account.

  Tech support made a token attempt to help me and then gave up.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon does some online shopping⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s a two-fold curse - first, every single program these days isn’t a stand-alone program, it’s a glorified web browser. Hand-in-hand with that is the fact that, in order for these webpages-disguised-as-programs to behave in the way you normally expect a modern UI to act, it has to have five layers of javascript frameworks, each adding its own pile of cruft to the slagheap that is modern app design. It’s horrendous and I hate it.

  Erm. I’m trying to clear up what I thought looked like misconceptions you have about AI in regards to real-world applications, but I seem to have come on too strong, and I apologize; I have a tendency to put on a know-it-all attitude and it’s something I’m trying to work on.

  Have a good day, I’ll leave you alone now.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AGI achieved 🤖⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  you called me a robot racist.

  …what?

  Looking up the most common answer isn’t intelligence, there is no understanding of cause and effect going on inside the algorithm

  In order for that to be true, the entire dataset would need to be contained within the LLM. Which it is not. If it were, a model wouldn’t have to undergo training.

  AI implies intelligence

  You seem to be mistaking ‘intelligence’ for ‘human-like intelligence’. This is not how AI is defined. AI can be dumber than a gnat, but if it’s capable of making decisions based on stimulus without each set of stimulus and decision being directly coded into it, then it’s AI.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AGI achieved 🤖⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Okay, what is your definition of AI then, if nothing burned onto silicon can count?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Luv Me Chips, 'ate Seagulls...⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  If a seagull is stealing chips from someone, odds are there are plenty of other seagulls around to witness their compatriot getting merked.

  Seagulls understand that stealing from humans is risky - that’s why they generally do it very quickly. The ones who fail suffer consequences for their failure, same as stealing food from any other creature. It’s the risk/reward calculation any scavenger has to make.

  Sometimes they calculate incorrectly. They get forcibly removed from the gene pool.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AGI achieved 🤖⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  No. Artificial Intelligence has to be imitating intelligent behavior - such as the ghosts imitating how, ostensibly, a ghost trapped in a maze and hungry for yellow circular flesh would behave, and how CS1.6 bots imitate the behavior of intelligent players. They artificially reproduce intelligent behavior.

  Which means LLMs are very much AI. They are not, however, AGI.
