Ok, propaganda bot

Removed by mod

You’re either a propaganda bot or someone facing propaganda toxicity.

Article didn’t bother to show the piece, but from the description it isn’t nearly as interesting as many other Rubens paintings.

The fact that another great artist, William-Adolphe Bouguereau, owned this painting once is a bit of art history nerd knowledge that is fun to learn. Bouguereau’s depiction of the human body and skin tones is, in my opinion, the most talented.

Absolute bullshit. ChatGPT IS an LLM with additional response programming.

It is not AI. It is still just a LLM with coding that prevents or encourages particular responses and tone.

Quit trying to make AI happen.

AI only exists for idiots that don’t understand LLMs. You know, CEOs and morons.

I’ve played every single Civ game well past the time its successor was released, and at some point have always eventually moved on.

Now, after obsessing as Peter on Pangea map with Critical Thinking as my entertainment based religion, I’m realizing I may not update this time. Ever.

The next version sounds absolutely lousy. I may just go back and start regressing - although I’m not sure I could find copies earlier than 4. I still have 5 and 6 on active machines.

As it should. Amazon is the absolute worst, snuggled in there with fellow villains Meta, Google, and Palantir.

Why go through the hassle?

Set up Jellyfin and use your VPN to fill it with whatever you’re wanting to pay corporate overlords for.

You’ve paid for the IP already from the years of subscriptions. At this point they’re just draining everyone dry. Stop letting them.

This sounds barbaric.

I was diagnosed with asthma in the 70s because I had frequent asthma attacks that nearly killed me- I can’t imagine why such a test is needed- asthma diagnosis is not difficult and is easily differentiated from other conditions with basic knowledge.

The first season is rough.

Honestly if you kinda skim and get the story points to learn who everyone is and what is generally going on- moving on to the second season without finishing the first is completely reasonable.

Everyone was trying to work around the actor that played the lead during the first season- he had an unfortunate mental breakdown during filming and was replaced by Bruce Boxleinter for the rest of the show after season 1, but this naturally made everything more difficult for everyone, and the quality suffered temporarily.

Once you get about 3-4 episodes deep in season 2, you’ll forget all about season 1.

Blasphemy! It is only Babylon 5 that is worthy of such scrutiny.

~*after you suffer through the first season~

The bigger evil is still worse, hurting MORE people.

Leftist purity culture is why there isn’t a bigger leftist movement. The propaganda told you to shoot yourself in the foot and most have never stopped pulling the trigger.

There was once (it may still exist somewhere) a strawberry Crush soda that I remember having frequently as a kid. There was Orange, Grape, and Strawberry. There was a generic version called Shasta that tasted the same.

I imagine Fanta is similar. Orange Fanta and Orange Crush are.

I only upvoted for the Darmok reference and the actual photo still hasn’t loaded to see if the reference is valid.

My buy date is six months after release. For this exact reason.

Smart people don’t buy games until they are actually finished anymore. Stop feeding bad business practices.

Classic wolf vs sheep paranoid reality of toxic individualism.

These people cannot fathom humanity being bigger than “strong kill weak” or “predator / prey / competitor” classifications.

Many men hold this worldview as their reality as the bro culture and toxic masculinity plays right into it.

As someone who works with integrating AI- it’s failing badly.

At best, it’s good for transcription- at least until it hallucinates and adds things to your medical record that don’t exist. Which it does and when the providers don’t check for errors - which few do regularly- congrats- you now have a medical record of whatever it hallucinated today.

And they are no better than answering machines for customer service. Sure, they can answer basic questions, but so can the automated phone systems.

They can’t consistently do anything more complex without making errors- and most people are frankly too dumb or lazy to properly verify outputs. And that’s why this bubble is so huge.

It is going to pop, messily.

I’m saying that attacking the very people most likely to take your side is classic sabotage behavior.

Doing so only makes sense only from the perspective of someone who wants to ensure no large leftist movement in the west.

Then attacking, ridiculing, and dog piling on the real leftists that point this out further sabotages any meaningful leftist movement. As already demonstrated here.
