  Because that’s how typography works? Why do you capitalize the first letter in each of your sentences?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Most time travelers probably have investments in Apple and Micosoft⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Because it’s not illegal?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨agi graph slop, wtf does goverment collapse have to do with ai?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  How would this be any different from more people existing in the world? These AGIs still need to eat (err, consume electricity). Or are you assuming they’ll be superior intelligences and thus disruptive?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨do you think freewill truly exists?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I know that free will doesn’t exist and I wouldn’t choose to have it any other way

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨No looky for you!⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m not an engineer, I don’t know how it works. I can touch the transparent window without getting burned, so it appears the window is insulated.

  Maybe it works like this? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Insulated_glazing

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨No looky for you!⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I hate when the dishwasher says it’s low on cyan gnomes, but I can see them right there

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨No looky for you!⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  My oven is super insulated, yet it still has a window

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨IT’S THE FEDS!⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It still blows my mind that a plant is illegal. One with medicinal uses, no less. What will they think of next? Banning sunshine?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Dairy⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Also, her pants wouldn’t fade into nothingness but on second thought I think the artist did the right thing…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨My password is not accepted because it is too long⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I love when there are so many rules that my first few randomly-generated passwords are rejected.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨“This script is fantastic. Let’s get Julia Roberts to play Harriet Tubman.”⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Have you considered that

  (a) documentaries do not need actors, and

  (b) if they did, the last black man earth could star as himself?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨People Are Losing Loved Ones to AI-Fueled Spiritual Fantasies⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m no AI proponent, but I’ll only believe that LLMs are causing this psychosis when I see a randomized controlled trial. Until then, it seems far more plausible that people experiencing delusions gravitate towards LLMs.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Math is amazing!⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:
  • Take your age
  • Multiply by e^iπ^
  • Add your age
  • Divide by 10
  • Take a card, any card
  • Add the number of years you’ve been alive
  • Hand me the card
  • Is this your card?
• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Feces is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Man Bun™ was created when a regular rabbit ate a radioactive turd. Now he can anthropomorphize at will, leap tall buildings in a single sproing, be super jacked, and destroy his enemies with Mach-5 poops.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Teachers warn AI is impacting students' critical thinking⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s illuminating to ask an LLM a question, and then say it was wrong. In my experience they will do a 180 every time.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Studios are making money off of fake AI trailers on YouTube⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Not a lawyer, but I thought trademarks are distinct from copyright. Even if copyright went poof, it’s still possible to violate a trademark.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Having a baby? Use this one weird trick!⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Is that true? Sounds kind of discriminatory.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The science speaks for itself⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  FWIW, I would never ask someone about an injury during a job interview. I’m just a stranger on the internet, though, so who knows.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Understimulated⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The Orville was actually pretty good. This may be heresy, but it felt more like Star Trek to me than some of the nu-Trek shows coming out. And for the record I can’t stand Family Guy.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨PSN Is Still Down After 14 Hours And No One Knows Why⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Free your mind! There is another way. Video game servers should be open-source, and the games should permit you to choose a custom server. This way, games can survive the bankruptcy of their creators’ companies.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨spidey senses⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Well you see, that’s the hilarious part. You won’t have those spiders anymore, the astronaut will. Floating in his tin can. Far above the moon. Planet earth is blue and there’s nothing he can do.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The indian and white uniting as one with a $500 Billion budget⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  False. Attack their groin. The groin is the weakest part of the body.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨🤡🤡🤡⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  And originally posted by knifemilf. Actually, I have no idea what that UI is telling me.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What happened to Larry the Cable Guy?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  What an unmissable sign-off line

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨We overpaid you and need you to pay back $.23⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Once upon a time, my landlord’s management company tried to shake me down for an additional day of rent. I pointed out that my rental agreement stated I would pay exactly $x every month, so they can pound sand. They, too, decided to “let it slide.” How magnanimous.

  I swear they must have created a new spreadsheet with an off-by-one error somewhere and mailed out hundreds of bills instead of double checking.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨master manipulators⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I shudder to write this, but it’s more like a self-replicating knife dildo. Or a sawzall.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨master manipulators⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Nah, I assume it’s more like some unconscious dude shows up at your house with a weirdly sharp penis, he impregnates the house, and then the house explodes and a bunch of little dudes spill out.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Improve your Wi-Fi with this one trick⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  With less matter for the photons to interact with, I assume the WiFi’s SNR would be improved. If fewer data frames need to be retransmitted at the link layer (WiFi), I figure the apparent bitrate at the IP level might actually be improved!

  Actually, I would not be shocked if WiFi itself adapts to conditions, e.g. by sending less data per frame with more error correction bits when SNR is already low.

  (Not a networking expert, I am just bullshitting.)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Germ Blaster⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I mean if you need two or three, that’s still way better than grabbing 20.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Rust⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  In practice, I tend to agree. It’s easier to avoid shooting yourself in the foot with C++, but it’s still just waiting for you to screw up.

  I’m mainly getting at Undefined Behavior (UB), which both C and C++ have plenty of. This article from Raymond Chen has some excellent concrete examples: devblogs.microsoft.com/oldnewthing/20140627-00/?p…
