If you print rarely inkjet is going to dry out and stop working, making them even more expensive and annoying.

There’s like 800 different furry communities, all for extremely specific fetishes.

How exactly does one accidentally insert affiliate data on links? At some point someone wrote that code, which is malicious in itself, even if the activation was accidental.

Why the fuck should your browser get a share from your amazon shopping? It’s doubly galling since they pretend to care about user privacy.

Having everything in quads only becomes important when you are animating the mesh.

And when using subdivision modifier

Yes always actually

I just wish people would stop making software choice their whole personality

I hadn’t looked up what Michio Kaku had said about quantum computing before, but it does not look well-regarded.

“His 2023 book on Quantum Supremacy has been criticized by quantum computer scientist Scott Aaronson on his blog. Aaronson states "Kaku appears to have had zero prior engagement with quantum computing, and also to have consulted zero relevant experts who could’ve fixed his misconceptions””

I’m hardly an expert on the subject, but as I understand it they have some very niche uses, mostly in cryptography and some forms of simulation.

It is not an issue of processing power, it’s a problem with the basic operating principles of LLMs. They predict what they “think” is a valid bit of text to come after the last bit of text.

Sure it could be verified by some other machine learning tool, but we have no idea how that could work.

But I strongly doubt LLMs are a stepping stone on the way to true AIs. If you want to get to the moon you can’t just build higher and higher towers.

Also quantum computers aren’t really suited to run artificial neural networks as far as I know.

I don’t want to murder them specifically, but I doubt they will let us take all their stolen wealth without a fight.

Proper dark chocolate isn’t even good. Milk chocolate however is far better than white chocolate. White is just too… cloying?

Probably because LLMs threaten to (and has already started to) shittify a truly incredible number of things like journalism, customer service, books, scriptwriting etc all in the name of increased profits for a tiny few.

Hey restarting worked! I thought I had but apparently not. Thanks!

“Con Air” is a classic. I found “brightburn” very enjoyable. I rewatch “the faculty” every now and then.

I remember liking it when I was a teenager. I tried rewatching it recently… Couldn’t make it past 5 minutes.
