Inevitable Waffles [Ohio]

As someone who frequently interacts with the tech illiterate, no they don't. This sudden rush to put weighed text hallucination tables into everything isn't that helpful. The hype feels like self driving cars or 3D TVs for those of us old enough to remember that. The potential for damage is much higher than either of those two preceding fads and cars actually killed poeple. I think many of us are expressing a healthy level of skepticism toward the people who need to sell us the next big thing and it is absolutely warranted.

While good for now, he wants the legislation to go back on the drawing board to make it more bulletproof for the inevitable court battle. This is a break in the fighting. We didnt win the war.

The real reward was the genitals we saw along the way.

You can doubt all you like but we keep seeing the training data leaking out with passwords and personal information. This problem won't be solved by the people who created it since they don't care and fundamentally the technology will always show that lack of care. FOSS ones may do better in this regard but they are still datasets without context. Thats the crux of the issue. The program or LLM has no context for what it says. That's why you get these nonsensical responses telling people that killing themselves is a valid treatment for a toothache. Intelligence is understanding. The "AI" or LLM or, as I like to call them, glorified predictive textbars, doesn't understand the words it is stringing together and most people don't know that due to flowery marketing language and hype. The threat is real.

Ok. They going to remove the thin blue line flag from all the police cruisers as well? Yes that is state vs fed. Im just taking this to its logical (unlikely) conclusion. Rule for thee not for me and all that.

I mean....yeah. It is why we are historically ignored by Dems.

I really like this idea. I am going to mention it to my partner. We have been trying to craft a policy for it recently.

I worked for a company that made a UVC light system for sterilization. The amount of safety you have to build in so people wont nuke themselves makes them hard to use.Also, the bulbs we used were delicate and had issues constantly.

I love Behind The Bastards and It Could Happen Here. They do have significant episode counts. BtB does a great and looooooong series on Henry Kissinger that I think is a prime example of what you are going to get. If you listen to that one and don't enjoy, I would move on from them.

As an Ohioan, anything outside of the major metros is basically the south.

I worked for a device manufacturer that used Linux under the hood. It happens. Depends on what the staff knows and likes when designing.

That is a fun fact. A personal fun fact is I remember that the Secret Service is part of the Treasury department because of the cult classic, Wild Wild West.

Edit: spell check

Both of these things can be true. You can't discount the rich and their ability to do evil in multiple dimensions with one choice.

I do the Nixon Aroooo on command like a trained seal.

Do you really want to be thinking about it for the next 2 weeks? Push through! You got this!

What could be more American than making merchandise to amplify a historic event?

My list is as goofy as ever.

We do love a feel-good end of year win so we can hang up our hats. The headline lulls us but the article contains the alarmbell.

Maybe it could be set asided or reserved for them?

I have this on a platter hard drive somewhere. Oh how I've missed you old friend.

I feel like the media might actually be helping Bidens chances by broadcasting the very obvious bad things Trump plans on doing in office that he has said. Most Dems probably dont give a shit about Gaza so, while we have a problem with it, they dont.

What's that? Couldnt hear you over Voyager just working.

If the Secret Service existed when Andrew Jackson was the President, we would already have had this figured out.

I have nipples @jarfil@beehaw.org , could you milk me?

I will never get over the absurdity of seeing a Confederate flag on a house in Ohio.

They act like its the computer daydreaming. No, its wrong. The machine that is supposed to provide me correct information. It didn't it. These marketing wizards are selling snake oil in such a lovely bottle these days.

Thanks for the assist.

Yeah, this feels like a nothingburger. Rates have only started coming in line with expectations and corpo gouging is the real problem. No amount of high interest will stop companies charging extortionate rates. Powell has good reason to be cagey as every rate hike tanks the stock market because of the general panic. We finally have lenders and businesses getting the idea that the gravy train of nearly free loans is over.

Solid take. Thanks for giving that perspective. I was operating on some of that propaganda and hadn't heard that side of it.

that was my thought as well. I assume most of them to be duds. hell, the relabeled Chinese hand-me-downs the Russians are using don't work either.

I ran into that with my ASUS monitor. The HDMI protocol won't support 2k@165hz

So a rich guy who can put on a mask and beat up the poor while advancing the arms race with criminals becoming more unhinged or a guy whose family was murdered and starts turning to vigilante justice and became what every cop wet dreams that they actually are?

....Sure. That'll help. /s

Are you using display port or HDMI? Depending on the monitor HDMI can't support the higher output.

Corrected. Lol thanks.

Found the Musk stan.

Like watching moths to a flame. Bug-thesda is going to do what it always does; Ship a quarter of a product and fix it over years. I'd call it No Mans Sky syndrome but Elder Scrolls / Fallout has dealt with it longer.

I thought that was called using meth?

I'd skip the programming. The tales coming out of Silicon Valley on Blind have convinced me the gold rush is basically over. If you have something you like doing that exists as a trade; Things like woodworking, electrical, plumbing, I'd look into that. The rules around them as a profeasional might change but the fundamentals are great for anywhere you go. Programmers are useful but we are about to fall off a tradesperson cliff. You'd be able to command 100 an hour at least if you are competent and polite.

DeWine has been nothing but shrewd since taking the governorship. His metered and somewhat displined display during COVID almost guaranteed he wouldnt be unseated by a Dem. His only real major fuckups anyone noticed were with SB6 and the firstenergy scandal. He may yet get caught in that snare. He is still playing out of the adult in the room playbook while not antagonizing the Trumpier parts of the state. Hes is term limited so he could go bananas but I feel like he wont. But if they provide him something he can kind of defend, he will sign it.
