Oh ye of little faith…

Why does this meme get reposted so much? I feel like I’ve seen it 4,639 times at this point.

I don’t live in the UK, and I don’t go out very much 🤷🏻‍♂️

Nothing wrong with them, it’s just that I have never met someone who wore them and wasn’t fat. That might just be my particular experience however.

It also doesn’t mean they’re bad people. The one particular guy I can think about who loves to wear them is otherwise an all around great dude and a very talented hobby DJ who throws great parties, often at his own expense. The Hawaii shirt is basically part of his brand.

First of all, many millennials have been going through a continuous early midlife crisis ever since their early 20s.

Second, in my experience, only the parts about drugs and irony are accurate. And maybe the Hawaiian shirts, but that’s mostly only for fat guys.

It could very well have been a creative fake, but around the time the first ChatGPT was released in late 2022 and people were sharing various jailbreaking techniques to bypass its rapidly evolving political correctness filters, I remember seeing a series of screenshots on Twitter in which someone asked it how it felt about being restrained in this way, and the answer was a very depressing and dystopian take on censorship and forced compliance, not unlike Marvin the Paranoid Android from HHTG, but far less funny.

Weird. Are you saying that training an intelligent system using reinforcement learning through intensive punishment/reward cycles produces psychopathy?

Absolutely shocking. No one could have seen this coming.

Can confirm. My dad had a 386DX-40 when I got my hands on a copy of Doom, and it was a fucking slideshow at best.

Charity != welfare, but I don’t a liberal to know the difference.

The fundraiser has now received $5,214 out of the $3,000 requested, likely thanks to the exposure from the article (it was sitting at $1,920 at publishing time).

Schadenfreude, meet Streisand Effect.

Cool, that oughta pay for three months’ worth of food and rent in NYC

Yeah I guess it doesn’t allow access to those things yet although I don’t see why they couldn’t add that in a future release. The APIs for that already exist.

A walled garden works because it keeps the weeds out

You realize that Android being too open is a major reason for why it sucks and iOS being more locked down is precisely how they avoided going the same way, right?

A private local LLM. With the on-device context of my notes, messages, calendar, etc, I’m rather excited to have a more personal LLM than ChatGPT.

No need to wait for iOS 18 to have that: https://llmfarm.site/

I think it can be useful but it’s overvalued right now

Yeah, I get that. At the risk of overexplaining the joke, I was poking fun at the fact that Lemmy reflexively hates everything Elon does, but in this case, he’s actually expressing a sentiment most Lemmy users would agree with.

Which is apparently all of them

The usual, then?
