  lol your snark will not save you, and that’s hilariously pathetic. Of you. You won’t be spared.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨When do we riot?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m not saying, “don’t do anything”. In fact, I mean to say you should be MORE pissed off.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Different strokes⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Please explain to me how putting your dick in icecream is in any way taking it seriously.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨When do we riot?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Who says I’m not? I’m just doing things I cannot speak of, because I don’t want to be on any more watchlists than I am… and no, the fediverse IS NOT anonymous enough.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨When do we riot?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Your disbelief will never save humanity. The fact my obvious opinion was downvoted so far only speaks to how utterly FUCKED we are as a species, because most of you fucking worms are too stupid to understand the scale of this problem.

  Eh. No. I’d argue actual minimal spending should say that these services never learn what the internet is.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  So you mean to degrade the immigrant US population further?

  Just because Trump and his ilk barely know what “caliente” means does not erase the MASSIVE population who are ESL in the US.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Protein folding is not solved yet⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Ehhhhhh that’s purely a problem of the “setting up” a quantum computer (ok ok and how many qubits are involved). They SHOULD be extremely capable of it. Literally able to get a ‘correct’ answer in one cycle.

  It’s just very unfortunate that quantum computers benefit greatly from slower cycles, and the setup of the computations are a real nightmare. As you say, I’m unaware of any that can solve protein folding in a single cycle, and the more cycles there are involved, the more subject it is to the algorithm implemented and setup steps taken.

  Maybe one day, we’ll have billion-qubit quantum computers solving all sorts of problems reliably, but that day is definitely not today!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Protein folding is not solved yet⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Do you recommend we go back to trial and error on humans, then? Do you want to volunteer as a guinea pig? If not, then STFU.

  Yea, fire, FIRE!! Image

  Ignorance will not fix the world. You ask for more hell.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨This has been happening to a lot of people recently⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  You can, but you’d still be absolutely stupid for saying it’s removed from copyright.

  Copyright protection, while it’s ABSOLUTELY not in a healthy place right now, is still the legal framework for protecting works.

  If you remove BOTH, then no art means anything monetarily while the world still works on capitalism.

  Why do you want to fuck over artists that badly?

  Oh I enjoy a good BBQ, but the sheer emphasis many put on them is… really weird.

  I think many who would downvote me conflate the social aspects with the “BBQ” part. Just throw a damn party! I don’t care what you cook but the point is it doesn’t NEED to include one of the most wasteful and silly forms of cooking.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hopeposting⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh but you do have to with Superman. That’s the entire point of his character and when stories about him shine; when they’re about pressing morals and not so much a big baddy to fight. He can do about anything he wants, so it kinda’ requires him to be pressed in other ways. Stories that only put him in cliche fights or just have him morally grandstanding are the worst. He is idealized, and that needs to be reconciled with a world that has a lot of grey in it.

  The recent superman movie did a decent job of it, the one with Krypto.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hopeposting⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s not revenge to remove evil from the world. What kind of petty projection do you practice?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Drop your unpopular opinions here because c/unpopularopinions is filled with popular opinions⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Eh. Lane splitting can legitimately reduce congestion and improve safety, at least when drivers are aware of their surroundings… which yes I know, for some is apparently a high bar.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Drop your unpopular opinions here because c/unpopularopinions is filled with popular opinions⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I dunno’, I think you’re both right, with the caveat of untrained dogs/kids, IMO. In either case, there is a WORLD of difference between one that listens when told to go play outside and one that will draw on the walls with crayon or piss the moment you look away.

  It’s the same kind of people that have terrible dogs and terrible children.

  In either case, a well kept/trained dog/child can be pretty solid company. Though usually a little harder to entertain a child without sticking them to a screen.

  That’s not cognitive dissonance. That’s trauma bonding.

  lol post that football or soccer are fake in the wro g sub and you’ll be lucky to only get figuratively crucified.

  BBQ is overrated. Especially in the US.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨This has been happening to a lot of people recently⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Copyright is the thing these AI are breaking, so pick one.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Disc drive needed⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  They probably mean the mp3 equivalent of what it would be in wav. … Although that could easily get past six CDs on one’s worth so… I dunno’!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Sorcery battle⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  lol no it wouldn’t. War is hard. Just look at Russia and Ukraine. No nukes, yet war.

  Probably?

  Damn that’s a boomer take… “If everyone could just act like me we’d all be better off”

  Nahh, plant endangered species so they cannot remove them.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Protein folding is not solved yet⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I mean… machine learning extends far beyond the stupid lying machines, and can produce far more trustworthy results than the dipshits at “Open” AI, but results will still always require validation, as all results require a lot of validation in science before they should be trusted.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Protein folding is not solved yet⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I mean… modern CPUs can do multiple billions of summations and multiplications in a single second (let alone GPUs), and yet protein folding can take a long time.

  A quantum computer is MUCH faster for finding viable solutions, though they’re MUCH harder to set up even for individual problems, and still need verification of the results.
