Who wants to bet that it will get to minimum viable product, be shoved out the door, and get basically no support until such time that Timmy goes “Well we aren’t getting enough ROI on Linux” and bin the Linux version completely ignoring that they aren’t even getting purchases on the windows client?

I’ve called his work “light hearted monkey’s paw”

Yeah huge pita to watch anything on YouTube now. Every 3rd recommended video is clearly made with AI, and I’m sorry but not sorry, your video needs to be made fully by humans for me to care. I don’t care how interesting the topic sounds, if there’s slop in there I’m not watching. I don’t care if the video is obviously low budget give it the human touch.

One of the more annoying things is when it’s AI stick figures, like bro, just draw them yourself, they’re stick figures.

Hell, a few weeks ago I came across a video titled “Why are slugs? Broadly speaking”. Its thumbnail proudly has a “No Ai” on there and it was a good and interesting video on snails and slugs.

God that poor woman. That’s so many kids.

Yeah I’ve seen that one before. I was so glad to have training at my job that explicitly stated “if you aren’t the electricity guy, don’t fuck with the electricity” like I’d fucking argue that I should be allowed to lick the 480v. Nope, I want nothing to do with the spicy cables.

Yeah, I mean fuck us and all we do suck, but I don’t think people outside the US and Canada really grasp how big this place is. A few years ago I drove to Montreal. It’s a 12 hour drive going 100km/h the whole way, and that’s to get to the nearest city that doesn’t speak English by default, a 24 hour drive in any other direction and I would still be surrounded by people speaking English.

I don’t disagree that there needs to be regulation. I fully agree there needs to be regulation. Companies can and will fuck customers over with little to no concern. See for example the enshitification of pretty much everything.

All I am saying is that there are times when voting with your wallet has successfully bullied companies into complying with the will of the people.

Not voting with your wallet doesn’t work? Someone aught to tell Disney that after many people ended their Hulu and Disney+ subscriptions once Kimmel was fired.

The western lake, though lake Michigan and Huron are actually a single lake, and also Michigan borders 4 of the 5 great lakes.

The northern most lake. Fun fact about Lake Superior, it contains 10% of all surface freshwater in the world.

Because no human did any work to create that slop. People deserve to be paid for their work and ai slop is just plagiarism to an industrial scale.

A quick googleing says tidal has 110 million songs, spotify 100 million, apple music 100 million, youtube music 100 million… you get the idea there is functionally an unlimited ammount of human generated music. You will never finish any of these services’ catalogs. Don’t use slop.

Reminds me of that tweet:

"Does microsoft understand concent?

• yes
• Ask me again later"

Yeah, people from that city or place moved there and named their new home after their old home. There’s a very Dutch area of Michigan with many immigrants from the Netherlands still there. Want to know a couple town names? Holland and Zeeland.

You’re right, changing it now

evil billionaires who are gleefully destroying democracy and the world economy so they can go out in one final last hurrah of capitalism

They need to set the all time high scores list before they end the world. I’d say “/s” but honestly I think that may be what they’re doing.

Oh, I hate FPtP too, much more of a ranked choice kinda guy. This was just me complaining about my stupid government’s form.

(Your system is shit, I’ll die on this hill).

Oh trust me, a lot of us fully agree this system is dumb as hell. Personally I’m in favor of a parliamentary system with a PM who is just a random rep from the leading party and disposing of the senate because it just artificially inflates the voting power of corn. Corn’s cool and all, but I don’t think corn’s existence should count as like 6 Californian votes.

Probably because that’s 19 C and 20 C and the system under the hood only uses metric.

E-coli appears to be on the bottom left
