  Worst advice. ChatGPT is not meant for this and can doore harm than good.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What's the best way to read a book in a dark room?⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m also Kobo Clara for a couple of years now and very happy with it.

  Could you maybe elaborate on your experience with KOReader? It’s the first I hear about this. Maybe the only downside to Kobo is its unresponsive software. It’s just so slow. Does this KOReader improve on that?

  Accelerated Mobile Pages. Basically a short of fast-load version of your actual page for mobile use. It never really got off imo…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Weekly 'What are you playing?' Discussion⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Also been playing RTM with a friend the past week. Definitely fun but still pretty buggy. TBH it’s the sweet spot for us LOTR fans and Survival fans. It’s got a bit of both but does not excel in any of them.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I also do that!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What android phones do you recommend and why?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  It is helpful! Thanks. Do you have a comprehensive, beginner friendly tutorial on how to do it?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What android phones do you recommend and why?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I have the same feeling. Using a 5+ year old OP6 and still good battery life and overall performance. The only reason why I want change is because of security updates having stopped already for quite some time. I’m hesitant to jailbreak and install clean android because of banking apps.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨if it turned out there was a sentient AI capable of running the world would you accept it or rebell against it?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  First of all, a lot of humans do see the flaws but are indeed unable to correct them. This would also show in the training data. The AI OP is talking about would be much more powerful to actually act and change something.

  Don’t confuse Artificial Narrow Intelligence (ANI) with Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) or even Artificial Superintelligence (ASI). Your statement suggest you understand ANI, which is all the AI that we know today. However powerful they seem, they can only reproduce what they have learned from the training data.

  AGI (or human level AI) will be more what OP means here. Sentient, in a way that it can make its own decisions, think on a human level, feel on a human level and act on those feelings. If it feels humans are not important or harmful to what it values, it will decide to remove humanity as a whole. Give it the power to govern the world and it most certainly will act not in our favour.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨if it turned out there was a sentient AI capable of running the world would you accept it or rebell against it?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  This. Objectively, our species is ruining it’s own habitat consistently for years. A sentient ai would probably see that and remove the cancer in order to preserve the majority of nature

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨if it turned out there was a sentient AI capable of running the world would you accept it or rebell against it?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s where it would start. I imagine it would be capable to see the flaws in the system and rectify them. This most probably means we as humans won’t come out on top however.

  A sentient ai would probably be the most dangerous thing to the human species as a whole.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How is it that we hate the taste of coffe and still drink it?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I thought you meant the taste of roasted beans. Turns out you actually meant coffee. I don’t understand why you drink something you hate

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Outlook junk mail⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Allright, I’ll keep reporting! It’s not a lot, but honest work

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Outlook junk mail⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Doe it matter if I report it as phishing from the junk folder?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Game recommendation, looking for easier western 3D ARPG⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Interesting. I found ER way easier than Bloodborne. I played Bloodborne first though and was not yet familiar with the genre as much…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Solve this wordsearch 😛⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Top random comment!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do you feel this place has gotten more.. reddit-y lately?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I had the impression reddit was overall less toxic compared to other social media platforms like Facebook and Twitter. I always thought that it was the “community” aspect of reddit responsible for this. People want to belong to a community and are generally less toxic towards fellow community members.

  Maybe I was lucky in my community selection?

  That said, I’m happy to be here instead of reddit… It certainly feels a lot more welcoming!
