This is… really not true at all.

LLMs differ from humans in a very very important way when it comes to language: we know the meanings of the words we use. LLMs do not “know” things, are unconcerned with “meanings”, and thus cannot be said to be “using” words in any meaningful way.

“What if Chromium had its own fake money?”

How absolutely moronic. Hey, malaria has been around since Ancient times. How long are you going to let yourself be scared of that? Go to the nearest swamp and see if you can attract some mosquitoes, bro.

That makes sense! Austerity is such a roaring success everywhere else. There’s no reason it won’t work for Argentina.

Keep starving public services of funding and fucking over the poor in order to funnel more money into the pockets of the ultra-rich. That will definitely help the country develop.

…so sick of all this right-wing bullshit. Fucking assholes.

I started playing Factorio about a month ago and I’m completely addicted. I love it so much. I guess there’s not much more I can say about it, given how everybody but me had already heard of and played this game. But it’s definitely my #1 gaming highlight of the year.

The United States, to the best of my knowledge, does not yet have an election for King. The president is not the sovereign and neither is any former president.

So… if there is enough evidence to convict a former president of a crime that carries a prison sentence, then off to prison they go. They’re just another private citizen and deserve no special treatment (even though we know they will receive it).

Which is totally fine, in case you’re wondering. Speaking Spanish like a gringo is so much better than speaking English loudly and slowly and occasionally sneaking in a word like “cerveza” or saying “mi casa su casa” lol. It’s great that you’re making an effort to learn — y espero que el aprendizaje sea divertido! :)

“Firefish isn’t just a cool name”

Yeah, it’s also a generic name that isn’t very good?

This reminds me of that tweet that’s something like:

me fucking around: oh fuck yeah this is awesome

me finding out: no, wtf? the world’s not fair. this shit sucks

If the rumor is true that OpenAI is using libgen to obtain books, then this will be a very interesting fight.

Authors profiteering from arcane copyright laws vs. a sleazy company that hypes up an LLM as if it were HAL from 2001. Who is worse? Who should lose?! I’m on the edge of my seat already!

I ‘adopted’ a cute femboy

I thought you were talking about a person

fox

I thought you were talking about an animal and describing it in an adorable and unique way

who came to SF at the beginning of pride month to experience a new city and life and cheer up from their depression

I realized you were talking about a person

I can always tell when someone needs to poop.

…not really, but that would have been one hell of a hidden talent.

And if you like Taskmaster, then you have to try Taskmaster New Zealand at least once! It’s my favorite version of the show :)

Huh.

So this is like an NBA equivalent to like, the FA Cup or the Copa del Rey? It makes sense, I guess… feels weird though.

Lol, twitter can’t even pay for their servers. They can’t afford a lawsuit!

Thank you for making it possible to share endless pictures of beans in the future! It will never get old.

Beans, beans, beans, more beans, perhaps a cat, beans, beans, never gets old!, beans.

This is one of those “oh duh, no shit” kind of things where in reality… yeah, that probably does need to be said out loud. So fucked up.

Sure. The people who make that assumption are being rational in doing so, IMO.

Part of the reason for this is that people use the “lower taxes” thing as an excuse for, for example, having voted for Trump. “Oh no I’m not into all the cruel shit, I’m just a Fiscal Conservative™️” won’t convince anyone because nowadays you can’t vote for “lower taxes for businesses” without also voting for “trans people are all pedophiles”. Check your nearest Republican state legislature for verification of that fact.

Of course, the other important caveat is that “lower taxes for businesses” is usually packaged with “more deregulation”, which is in itself cruel, always implemented haphazardly, and never promotes the safe and sustainable economic growth that is promised.

Please. Spare us. “I don’t support either political party but liberals are just as bad” is a very roundabout way of saying that you’re a Republican.

What opinions do you mean specifically? The question you asked is too vague to help us sort out the welcome from the unwelcome.

Remember: “lower taxes for businesses” is a mainstream conservative opinion, but so are “children should not be allowed to know of the existence of gay people” and also “Breonna Taylor probably deserved to die” and also “Dr. Fauci is a mass murderer” and also “Trump won in 2020” and also “more brown children should be put in those cages”, etc., etc., etc.

If the conservative mainstream is so hateful and bigoted that most of their opinions would not be allowed on a well-regulated platform, that is not the fault of the platform and it does not suggest that the platform has to change just to accommodate conservatives.
