Angry_Autist (he/him)

Yep, every one of you

I complained about shit like this more than a decade ago and everyone just laughed and said ‘Oh they’ll never do anything like that’

You get what you fucking deserve

So my mentor’s mentor used to program for some ancient TI machine that used drum memory. He was a master of his craft and wrote his code deliberately so it would physically align with the next rotation of the drum, ensuring the fastest reads possible, and it cut tons of time off of every process run on them.

I can’t even imagine what it is like to even write naked binary, let alone make sure every single one of my operation sets are the same length.

Arguably it was perfect optimization.

He still got laid off with zero thought when the time came.

I’s there a lesson here? I don’t know, I’m drunk

No it was a shitty OS with very VERY little hardware support,

and he built it because the voices in his head told him to build a temple and he was too lazy to be a carpenter.

Have you actually installed it? Because I have. It’s BARELY an OS

The ‘security’ mumbo jumbo is mainly to cover his networking incompetence

No, schizophrenia is how you get Temple OS

Ok I’ll just go grab some sand and refine it into silicon then bake my own chips then code my own kernel and OS and applications because that’s the only way to ‘control’ it.

Companies need to be held to regulatory standards about our private data, and the ONLY reason those regulations don’t exist is because every FUCKDAMN politician in the world was born before TV had color

Turning the feature on by default is bad, but

Nope, no further. Downvoted and blocked.

Don’t you fucking try and justify this.

There are no ethical companies, only ones that are currently more profitable to operate as if they were.

The answer will always from now on be ‘yes’, for every annoying privacy invading toggle you have to change, it is in the best interest of the software creators to force you to do it in the way that benefits them most.

Our opinions are no longer as important as their ability to harvest our data.

I’ve already blocked them so I can’t link though I reported it too so maybe some mod woke their lazy ass up and deleted it as they should have.

I’m writing a short horror story that will at least illustrate what I see is the problem. That’s a form that can be easier to digest

I’m so glad blocks are free.

LLMs are able to shape human beliefs.

FUCKING THANK YOU!

I have been trying to get people to understand that the danger of AI isn’t some deviantart pngtuber not getting royalties for their Darkererer Sanic OC, but the fact that AI can appear like any other person on the internet, can engage from multiple accounts, and has access to their near entire web history and can make 20 believable scenarios absolutely catered to every weakness in that person’s psychology.

I’m glad your post is getting at least some traffic, but even then it’s not gonna be enough.

The people that understand the danger have no power to stop it, the people with the power to stop it are profiting off of it and won’t stop unless pressured.

And we can’t pressure them if we are arguing art rights and shitposting constantly.

logic isn’t the only way to persuade, in fact all evidence seems to show it works on very few people.

Everyone discounts sincere emotional arguments but frankly that’s all I’ve ever seen work on conspiracyheads.

1. the person needs to have a connection to the conspiracy theorist that is stronger than the identity valence gained by adopting these conspiracies

2. The person needs to speak emotionally and sincerely, using direct experience (cookie cutter rarely works here)

3. The person needs to genuinely desire for the improvement of the other’s life

That is the only way I have ever witnessed it personally work, and it still took weeks.

… I’m going back to reddit where at least the mods of /r/science kept the memes out

You only think that way because the material for a tire is all in one place and easy to see.

Paint on the other hand is effectively invisible when we ‘inventory’ a space mentally.

So a tire in the middle of your living room seems like a lot of rubber but all the paint over every inch of the wall in the same room doesnt, even if the room is big enough for the paint to fill the volume of the tire.

The problem in using biodegradeable materials to build things is that it degrades. Do you really want your wiring insulation decaying?

I fucking hate lemmy now, you are just reddit with a sense of undeserved elitism.

This is a serious as fuck problem and all that anyone replies with are jokes and shitposts.

This is fucking /c/science, not /c/sciencememes

But none of you care especially the mods, so I’m just blocking every one of you.

edit: There’s an entire subthread here that is nothing but masturbation jokes, which of course the mods ignore.

Fuck lemmy and its shitstain mod team same as the reddit mods but with worse hygiene. At least on reddit they keep /r/science clean

I literally have no medical alternative!
