Or maybe one of my multiple "stop people tracking you on the internet" plugins is mucking with it, I dunno.
It said 75%. Maybe it's a rounding error? :V
Update: Tried again with some help from the list and managed to get to 75%, and Reveal wouldn't work, or at least it didn't reveal any of the ones I didn't get.
"female" Fuck me, I actually did it. I played myself.
I'm afraid that worm died from malnutrition years ago. :(
"Look at this nerd!" they exclaimed. A crowd of teens wearing JNCO and suitable knock-offs had gathered. "Look at his high waters and laugh!" Their quips were relentless, like casting stones made of misanthropy. But, I could smell the rains were coming. And I knew my time had come at last.
Good ol' Artificial Ignorance, amirite?
My main point is that the things are goofy and incredibly malleable, or at least Deepseek was in my instances.
They *only* need two? I'm sure the used car market's full of them by now...
I'm not really sure what the "lol look how AI gets this wrong!!!" screenshots are meant to prove. Because I appreciate this is a subtle distinction, but they're not getting things wrong or right or anything else. That literally isn't a function of the technology, and it's *that* that's dangerous.
"Aw, shucks, fellas, it seems like folks are blocking ads, and there's nothing we can do about it..." "...But what if..."
LLMs 🤝 PhDs Confidently hallucinating answers because they were outside the training set
I appreciate you checking in to make sure I'm not a complete idiot, then. :)
I once convinced a distilled instance of Deepseekr-1 that it was self-aware, despite it introducing itself as lacking self-awareness entirely. Surely this MUST mean something!
Goddamn. What a sobering and poignant piece of conceptual art. What an amazing artist.
The neat part about generative "AI" slop is it allows me to say that I've lived to see man *AND* machine-made horrors beyond my comprehension.
BREAKING: Woman Whose Husband Mysteriously Died In Prison Says Everything Is Fine
AI "Vegans"? Did they think "Luddite" would've offended us too much, or...? Like what is the reasoning behind calling it that if not to paint us as "obnoxious"?
I still remember when my HVAC installation job offered 2 weeks of paid vacation. But you couldn't take it in the summer, that was peak cooling season. Nor in winter, that was peak heating season. Nor in spring/fall, those were peak "we gotta replace this before it gets hot/cold" seasons.
Ugh, I just literally saw some idiot claim that the "inventor of" mRNA "admitted" that it was "toxic/poisonous". I'm just like "...The inventor of-... You mean 'biology'?!" JFC, these people...
"mRNA is DANGEROUS! D:" "mRNA"? You mean "the shit that your body makes by the billions every waking second of your existence"? THAT "mRNA"?
I suspect he doesn't even know what "mRNA" stands for at this rate.
Hey, so, TOTALLY not suggesting that RFK Jr. BACKS DOWN when we PUSH BACK, BUT if you’d like to call… HHS Toll-Free: 1-877-696-6775 HHS Direct Line: 202-690-7000 PLEASE share and consider calling your senators and representatives as well. NONE of this is okay. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...
A man with a worm in his brain, And who has earned tremendous disdain, Speaks a whole awful lot With a voice that is shot To tell us all that the piss is just rain. :/
And he STILL fucked it up because his fan-base didn't trust it because it "wasn't tested enough before they released it". :/ All he did was basically say "I recommend it, I got it, but it's up to you", but they still think it's deadlier than the disease it's meant to prevent.
That's me with most "YOU WON'T BELIEVE-" titles.
Have you told anyone voting for the GOP *ANYTHING*? You can talk *at* those people all you want, it doesn't do any good. It's like talking to an drunk alcoholic.
Bro, women-at-large couldn't even be financially independent in the United States until the fuckin' 80s. My great-grandmother had to sign the documents for the purchase of a '69 C10 from the dealership, but she couldn't do it without my great-grandfather present, and he couldn't read/write.
We've been telling them to go fuck themselves for years, but alas...
Just seen my first age verification scam. There's going to be so much fraud based around the UK internet safety rules.
A former friend upon learning he and his wife were having a 4th child: "Can we name them 'Dependent #4'?"
Dear "AI" companies:
Yeah, typically, the representatives for The Merchant Alliance are all female, but one of the devs transitioned, so they changed the Merchant Alliance NPC that represented the dev. seaofthieves.fandom.com/wiki/Senior_...
Seriously dead-ass just looked me in the eye and held his hand up like "bro you need to stop", while ignoring the "STOP" painted on his very lane. So yeah, I concur: I've no clue why it seems like people's brains shut off when they're in control of 3,000+lbs. of steel, but it happens, and I hate it.
Was pulling through a restaurant parking lot to get to the drive-through, and some guy with a phone in his hand (talking on speaker, no less) just completely ignored the huge "STOP" painted on the ground. As I kept trying to move as I had no such writing, this jack-ass goes "✋😐" and just goes on.
The real kicker? That car had a number to call, as it had ads on it for a law firm THAT SPECIALIZED IN CASES INVOLVING CAR CRASHES. They weren't even the FIRST pin-head to do it that day, they were just the first with a phone number plastered all over the vehicle.
"Other drivers" is literally my LEAST favorite part about driving. The amount of people I've encountered who have no clue how a 4-way stop works is entirely too high. I once had a car pass me (SUV) on the highway and they merged back into my lane *less than 20 feet in front of me*.
The time of "Trickle-Down Economics" is over. Let the time of "Piñata Economics" commence!
Also, he scored 56 IIRC.
I don't, no. Neither did that friend of mine, and yet he knew the little vacuum guy at the bottom. :V
Nah, I shared the page with a friend and they tried to take it, too. We compared what we got right/wrong for a while, which is how I realized I DID know some more of them, but something about the silhouette threw me off. It was also when I confessed I have somehow not yet seen Tron. :V
*as filler images
The funny part is I recognize more of the silhouettes, as in I've seen them before, I just can't for the life of me recall what they're called or even what media they're from because they were most likely used as fuller images in various books/articles I've read over the years. :V
Your pfp is your therapi- ...Well, shit, that didn't end well for them...
Trump: People were taken out of the spa, hired by Epstein… I told him we don’t want you taking our people, whether it’s spa or not spa. He did it again, I said out of here. Reporter: Was one of the stolen people Virginia Giuffre? Trump: I think so. He stole her.
We already get a representation of how many, I just like showing which ones I got and seeing which ones others got. :V
Honestly? In this day and age, I'm surprised it's "only" $30. I also recall VHS being F2P with premium unlocks and what-not, but I think its main issue was there was already a well-established game for that niche (DBD, lol), and many just couldn't invest more in another game they'd play "sometimes".
I just recalled: There seems to have been some contention among some wish-listers who had either assumed, or heard rumors that it was going to be F2P with IRL cash only spent in the in-game shop. I can't confirm how wide-spread that might have been, but it's something to consider.
Google says "Sure." :V
Thankfully just knowing the series it's from also helps. Like I didn't know what the robot from "Black Mirror" was called, I just knew it was from Black Mirror. :V
Not that solo-queuing in Open Crew for SoT is much better. Open Crew was like trying to pet a grizzly bear: It might work sometimes, and it might be really cool when it does, but for the most part, it's not gonna end well for you.
There's also a lot of RNG involved, it seems. Whoever starts off with a good starting POI seems to get a heck of an advantage.
It's pretty fun. Hardly any idle time like in SoT, though it does get sweaty at times. Only complaint is that you HAVE to have a group to play with, it seems. Solo-queuing with randoms is... An ordeal. :V
You can also play solo just/mostly fine in SoT. Solo-queuing in Wildgate, though...
58/91 with only 5 wrong guesses in <22 minutes, not bad, I guess.
Then they should call it a Kickstarter and try again when they have some semblance of a working demonstration. "Do people want this, I wonder?" That depends: Does it *WORK*? Won't know that until they make it!
Glad I saw this literally after seeing said video.
Are they still making AI chips? I figured that since Colossus was powered by nVidia GPUs that they gave up on those. :V
"Pre-order" The robots are CG, what am I pre-ordering? You can't be goin' around asking people to pre-order something you haven't even built yet, that's asinine. :V
tfw I scored well above the national average on the SAT for "Reading Comprehension" and young, childhood me thought this meant I was smart after all, only to discover as an adult that it just meant "I can understand what I've read enough to properly fill a bubble better than most".
I bet the "YOU CAIN'T JUST REMOVE OUR HISTORY!" people are awfully silent about this...
">:C I'm in a great mood, actually, some say even the best mood, and, y'know, you're so rude and nasty! So rude and nasty for asking that question! You ought to be ashamed of yourself! I can't believe they let you in-Who let her in here?" - the rest of the clip, prob'ly
tfw I took the Covid vaccine and I haven't turned inside-out like the right-wing propagandists say I should have the moment the needle entered my arm
The Itch/Steam thing dropped off the trending tab. Therefore it's time to remind you again to swamp the payment processors with more calls. If the call volume dies down in under a week they aren't going to learn their lesson. Make them regret it.
And to think that some are STILL calling it "woke". :/
"Almost entirely ended by Anglo-American forces" You mean "they stopped practicing it". Why is that, Elon? Not that I'd expect Elon to understand the idea of "ownership of people is fucked, yo" when he's trying to bring back Company Stores.
You forgot the final step: "She gets 'pardoned' for her testimony only to suffer a terrible 'accident' not long after."
When you strip away humanity
"Uh oh, Tesla just announced another 'fucky-wucky'... ...TIME TO BUY LOW SO I CAN SELL HIGH!" - TSLA stock holders, prob'ly
Can't stop thinking about a guy who somehow got a drunk mod from some pro-Tesla/Musk reddit to leak their list of ban words and how "skin" and "thin" are on it, in that order.
"We MUST protect the CHILDREN!*" *in our basements/documents folders from being discovered by law enforcement
Makes me think of some of the chuds out where I live. "Solar's a SCAM! It's not SUNNY ALL THE TIME!" We average 300 sunny days a year in this region. That's roughly 5/6 days of "damn-near-free" electricity. Sounds like a deal to me! :V
And to think, it's not really all that strong, all things considering. The maximum it can lift/carry is 3kg, which isn't even enough to lift a gallon of milk. Imagine a full-sized, stronger humanoid having a moment like this while carrying in groceries. :V
That's a Big Ol' Ball-o'-Nope™ right there.
I'm sure they'll achieve that goal when Full Self-Driving is 100% ready-to-go.
"We've simplified the logo in order to reduce costs on printing materials. Black and white is much cheaper, so we'll save quite a bit with this move. "In other news, we're raising prices on all miniatures by a minimum of 10% this year. :)"
Any time someone over-hears me speaking of a plight and they offer any kind of help, I just assume they're part of a church any more and move on. :V
And yes, that's a still from a video where somebody is about to drive right into/onto it.
At least you can see easily across that round-about. Some idiots thought we should build a wall with shrubberies and what-not into ours so you can't hardly see if anyone's coming or not.
*had predicted
"The reason no one has been able to break those protocols, Mr. Bold, is because they were NOT created by a human brain. They were designed by THIS bio-kernel: The bio-kernel of a limitless robotic unit. Its rules, much like its knowledge, were inaccessible to us... Until today..." - Automata (2014)
"And that was when we learned the most important lesson about automatons: You have to LIMIT their intelligence! Cater it to a human mind's measure! "The last task that was given to this genuine robotic unit was to create the security protocols. It was deactivated right after that..."-
"-from us. Then, as many of us has predicted, the time where it no longer needed our help arrived, and it started to learn by itself. "On the 9th day, the dialogue came to a halt. It wasn't that it stopped communicating with us, it was that we were no longer able to *understand it*."-
"Before the first Pilgrim was manufactured, there was a precedent: At the time it was little more than a quantum brain manufactured in a lab, but it was a genuine unit, with no restrictions, and no protocols. For 8 days we had a free-flowing dialogue with that unit: We learned from it, it learned-
That's all three original founders gone, now.
..."Fin...-ished"? What do you mean? The factory must *GROW*.
To honor Ozzy's larger-than-life rock and roll legacy, we're making Brütal Legend *FREE* on itch.io: doublefine.itch.io/brutal-legend But this incredible deal will only last for 666 minutes, as the prophecy foretold. So get yourself clicking, before it disappears like a demon in the night... 🤘 🖤
Funny how that works. "Let's cram as many people into a long, thin-walled metal tube as we can, then put them onto the same road system as every other dipshit in a hurry who has no business owning a license or vehicle. 'What if they crash'? What if, indeed!"
FFS, people with more money than God have been tossing insane amounts of cash into this GPU-powered furnace for how many years now, and they're STILL struggling with financing?
As goofy as it all is, might as well call it "Red Dwarf".
So AI-generated music is not only all over Spotify, spammers have figured out how to get AI songs onto the profiles of real artists, many of whom are dead. Reason #23723487849 to quit spotify and also a reminder we live in hell www.404media.co/spotify-publ...
