This’ll just ensure a republican win, will it not?

I rented that multiple times when it came out!

I think I might never use that phrase again!

I came in thinking someone would link some alternative porn to a lost soul, and it never even crossed my mind that they might be looking for work.

It felt attentive, and I just wanted to convene (so very poorly) that your company must be a pleasure.

Are malicious audio files a thing? Is it pervasive on soulseek? Would it be OS agnostic? I was under the impression, that the only way to get malware is disregarding security popups when installing shady stuff from cnet.

I don’t know how to code, but have been my own admin for quite some time. Having malware in containers besides .exe files gives me the heebie-jeebies.

I have a feeling you’re fun at parties.

Edit - huh. This wasn’t sarcastic. Dude literally gave no shade.

Dang, thanks. I read the post, thought it wasn’t happening to me, and I just realized that the start of some videos is being throttled. The more ya know 🌈

Pooping up?

Did you miss out on Katamari Damacy or just forgot to list it?

Exactomundo!

The only reason that last paragraph ain’t outright ai garbage (besides my elegant use of ‘everyperson’, mind you) is that there is a semi-original though buried at the end of it. This paragraph is odacious, so point taken.

Thank goodness. I was worried there for a second.

Or maybe even take a step back. Dead internet theory is real and we’re living it, but just because the main subreddits and FB are ai schlock doesn’t mean Lemmy is the only ‘real’ place.

I feel the hardest part is keeping my senses about me when I argue with hivemind mentality. You will probably get a feeling from my writing, that I too embraced the hive speak and mind. And this is where the bots get the everyperson. Bots speak in hivemind and meme format. I think this whole kerfuffle will do wonders for real online discussion, as low-effort discussions will be dismissed as white noise.

It’s still fun to hear the man himself talking about a larger than life virtual reality.

The tech still scares me, I’m not even sure I’d be okay with EEG-like patches that work both ways (scifi, I know), not to mention brain surgery, for pure decadence. But the quality of life benefits really can be huge for many, and that really got my fantasy going, once I ‘accepted’ we figured out the limits and safeties of bodily autonomy.

Like when you set up 10 pins for someone else to knock down with a ball and it’s pretty symmetric?

Where were you for the last decade? I’d think tiktok is starting to wind down by now, but me and my shaking stick wouldn’t know that.

No grape lady? Or did I miss it?

There’s no guarantee anyone on there (or here) is a real person or genuine.

I’m pretty sure this isn’t a baked-in feature of meatspace either. I’m a fan of solipsism and Last Thursdayism personally. Also propaganda posters.

The CMV sub reeked of bot/troll/farmer activity, much like the amitheasshole threads. I guess it can be tough to recognize if you weren’t there to see the transition from authentic posting to justice/rage bait.

We’re still in the uncanny valley, but it seems that we’re climbing out of it. I’m already being ‘tricked’ left and right by near perfect voice ai and tinkered with image gen. What happens when robots pass the imitation game?

I really dig your stance, support developers where you can. How do you feel about TV shows though? Does the knowledge that most shows use product placement (baked in ads) alleviate entitlement in this case?

Yeah, but providing that push at the wrong time… Maybe I just presented it the wrong way. I think there was some snootiness to how I advocated it. Like I knew more than them, which might be the case… but it’s still alienating.

Maybe we can wait until they ask.

Just put on some moosic.

Only being used because someone is paying you to do it, then snuffed out after an extended death throe.
