  • Disappointing if true. The omake for TH19 hits the nail on the head on why genAI as it exists today is antithetical to the ethos of the series.

  • I don't get it. It's like you're saying the sexy robot woman is a representation of seductive futuristic promises of a problematic technology. I don't see how that ties into the article at all.

  • What’s the “killer features” of these new laptops

    LLM

    and what % price increase is it worth?

    negative eighty, tops

  • There certainly are delivery robots going around in Helsinki, but not to the extent you're guaranteed to see them on any given day if you're just strolling around.

    Glad you enjoyed your visit.

  • I think this mostly proves that Leo XIV is a moe anime character.

  • That's a boring perspective fuck you for sharing.

  • Pretty sure they're already doing that for many things.

  • This feels like a lot of straw man arguments?

    No it doesn't?

    Did anyone ever claim these things?

    Yes?

    Are these problems to implementing SMR? I don't think so.

    OK, but aside from lower efficiency, higher price per watt, and not solving any of the problems they're supposed to solve, are there any problems with SMR? I don't think so.

  • I'm a centrist. I think we should aim for the halfway point between basic human decency and hateful cruelty. I'm also willing to move towards the hateful cruelty to appease the right, because I'm a moderate.

  • Still frustrated over the fact that search engines just don't work anymore. I sometimes come up with puns involving a malapropism of some phrase and I try and see if anyone's done anything with that joke, but the engines insist on "correcting" my search into the statistically more likely version of the phrase, even if I put it in quotes.

    Also all the top results for most searches are blatant autoplag slop with no informational value now.

  • A whole generation is leaning more socialist because homeownership is unattainable and student debt is crushing. The solution is whatever is the latest big tech fad.

    Just like all of gen X's problems would have been solved with more .com, right?

  • I'm not polite to chatbots because I don't use them in the first place.

  • Really manning that steel bro. It must have taken a lot of effort not to put the echo symbols on (((DEI shibboleths))). Out of spite, I'll now proceed to somehow incorporate the idea that white people cause earthquakes into my worldview.

  • I dunno, how's the "I'm not Donald Trump" platform been working out so far?

  • Oh, but you see the axis powers only ever wanted to conquer most of Europe, North Africa, a bunch of islands in the Pacific, most of Southeast Asia, Korea and large parts of mainland China, which the allies would have been completely fine with. Nothing suggests they would actually go for full conquest victory. What is a "Lebensraum"? Is it a type of cheese?

  • Unusually shit take on WW2 but not an unusually shit take from Moldbug. Just the usual level of shit.

  • What kind of a cost is low enough that eight billion people can pay it for their legitimate communications without burning the planet too much, but also high enough that a spammer with a botnet won't bother to let other people's machines pay the cost?

    Chatbots have become so advanced you now need an intermediate chatbot to interpret between you and the other chatbot. With chess power levels.
