Props for #2 being a #2, but of these I usually go for 6. My personal favorite though is Pentel twist erase.
Though all the kuru toga enthusiasts here have convinced me to give them a try.
I also buy 5s in bulk, those shitty bic pencils are the “little brother” option when my D&D players forget their own writing instruments.
Folks seem awfully confident in their ability to encode other things with only a single letter, but who said you get spaces or other seperators?
I’ll take A, so I can express how i feel everyday now:
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
YOU’LL HAVE TO SPEAK UP ME HEARTY! THE MATES AND I ARE RAIDING 7\11 AT DAWN FOR CANDY AND SODA! ARRRRRRRRRRRR(oooooooooo)!
One of my favorite books! Great world building and quite thought provoking!
I’ve been hoping to save this one next time I saw it. So… thanks!
Oh so like the music industry where every artist retains full rights to their work and the only 3 big publishers definitely don’t force them to sell all their rights leaving musicians with basically nothing but touring revenue? Protecting the little guy like that you mean?
Or maybe protecting the little guy like how 5 tech companies own all the key patents required for networking, 3d graphics, and digital audio? And how those same companies control social media so if you are any kind of artist you are forced to hustle nonstop on their platforms for any hope if reaching an audience with your work? I’m sure all those YouTube creators feel very protected.
I’m job hunting and it’s exactly like this, except I don’t have any friends to offer me brandy, and I’m not European.
To paraphrase a common joke, it’s called the Fediverse because it’s full of feds.
This was probably a rare Babylonbee hit and OP was rightfully ashamed of the source.
Proper Tie Usage
I figured rule of threes meant it was funnier to leave it out. 2017 would have been sad gooning to pornhub during the first trump nightmare.
Then 2027 could be sad gooning to ai hyperporn during the second trump nightmare.
Maybe I should have used 20 year jumps, but "2037, I am jerking off because there’s no food, and the internet is nothing but ai porn.’ didn’t seem as funny a point for the “time shattering” bit.
I thought this was going to go Watchmen for a moment. Like…
It is 1997, I am a young boy, I am jerking off to a grainy porno playing over stolen cinemax.
It is 2007, i am in my dorm, i am jerking off to a forum thread full of hi-res porno.
It is 2027, i am jerking off to an ai porno stream that mutates to my desires in real time. I am about to nut so hard that it shatters my perception of time.
Like all good sci-fi, they just took what was already happening to oppressed people and made it about white/American people, while adding a little misdirection by extrapolation from existing tech research. Only took about 20 years for Foucault’s boomerang to fully swing back around, and keep in mind that all the basic ideas behind LLMs had been worked out by the 80s, we just needed 40 more years of Moore’s law to make computation fast enough and data sets large enough.
There are definitely games (and books and movies etc) that I didn’t like at first but which grew on me by the end. I often think of this as “finding the [media’s] voice.” I perform public readings sometimes, so even in my private reading if I can’t read a book in “the voice” it feels like the author was going for then I can’t connect to it. Same in video games.
Like I recently started on RoboCop Rogue City. It’s good and I’m enjoying it. But it took me a month to get past the first stage. Partly I had some crashing issues but I also just didn’t get it. Its an FPS, you play RoboCop, the aiming feels off and the shooting seems clunky and wooden to me…
But, at some point it clicked and I started enjoying the game and moving through it at “normal” pace. It’s almost more like a gallery shooter, like Time Crisis. Yeah its an FPS but the way enemies arrange themselves in layers in a big warehouse, popping their juicy vulnerable heads in and out of cover: its clearly drawing on that “shooting gallery” experience, and this is to play into the film’s language as well.
However, there’s a limit on my patience for this. Sometime i just know a game mechanic or character is going to be too annoying for me and I bail. Or if i get about 6 hours in and I’m still not getting it, not enjoying myself. That’s usually when I’ll give it up.
America: let’s disband the CDC, FDA, USDA, any set of letters we can that might regulate something. all the livestock dies from preventable diseases
Meanwhile, China: wHaT dO wE dO wItH aLl ThEsE cHiCkEnS?
Are we truly conscious, or do we just learn to imitate a pale simulation of the mushroom’s true understanding of reality?
I think you can tag the community like a person in a Mastodon post and it shows on the community? Like @asklemmy@lemmy.world but from Masto.
Nope! Doesn’t seem to work. Could be that my mastodon instance doesn’t federate to Lemmy.world though. If you search that “user” in masto you can follow them to see posts in this community, but seemingly not make them.
Words also just rotate around in popularity like any other fad. Remember synergy? Paradigm shifts? Thinking outside the box?
Academia isn’t immune to memes, far from it. In the semi-contained world of higher education, trends in words and phrases are even more pronounced and likely to spread.
If this is evidence of LLM usage, it could easily be the machines reflecting back trends. These things pick up on subtle cues in your prompts to match tone with you as well so I wouldn’t rule out human influence either in prompts or the RLHF process.
Casualy sliding this out of my pocket like, no way bro, i always keep that thang on me!
