I like baszite. I’m not in love with it, but it does most things I want it to do right out of the box, and it comes with steam installed which is convenient

He didn’t flip the table, he grabbed the King and ran off to try to throw it in the trash can

The board hasn’t actually changed much

You can literally train them on animal languages. They’re language models, their primary attribute is modeling a language

And they are very good at it

Okay, let’s say you have a fuel injected car, but instead of using the 02 sensor to decide the fuel air mixture, it just squirts the same amount of gas every time.

The hardware might be able to achieve 400 hp, but the software means it only ever achieves 50 hp

It’s like that. The software drives the hardware. It doesn’t matter how good the hardware is, the software is the brain of the operation - if the software doesn’t know how to utilize the hardware properly, you’re going to have piss poor performance

Driver’s? They literally drive the hardware your computer is using

Probably at least some of us… There’s a lot of us, and given a year and a few acres anyone with an almanac would have a shot

It’s likely it’ll be a lot more, and we just have a dark age

What does that mean through? We already had an insane amount of soft power over Maduro. He was desperate to stay in power… So now what?

We basically just hit Venezuela with a stick and told them to behave

They’re scared. Of course they are.

Whether they hated Maduro or not, they’ve been forced into limbo

What happens next? No one fucking knows, no one has a plan, because Trump might come back for round 2 and decapitate the chain of succession or make an ultimatum

It must be terrifying. For all my brother’s and sister’s in Venezuela, stay strong, stay safe, and be ready to take advantage of opportunities

Well they didn’t establish a new government there… That would take competence

Trump just stole the leader and his wife and declared the oil is “ours now”. No one knows what the fuck they means, but their VP took over control for now

I mean, hopefully to bring perspective, the water wars are happening now. People are fighting corporations who are draining the aquifers for alphalpha and such to send abroad, there are faucets running dry and everything

It’s not going to be mad Max… These problems still exist and are on track, but they way they present themselves is as a slow burning down of the infrastructure that our country is built upon

The people will remain. There will be hard times, we will have to come together to solve problems. We might have to relocate as areas become untenable

There will be unrest and disorder, but not mass murder. We just don’t have it in us without years of indoctrination and drug use

You forgot about his many failures along the way. Do you know how many kids slipped through his tiny fingers?

And anything the officer has previously reported should be put under review

Because the US military might actually be strong enough to take on the rest of the world and win

They probably had army rangers HALO nearby, instantly killed anyone in their way, then had a crazy amount of fire support/distraction as they exfiltrated the area

Or who knows, they have so many toys and experienced operatives it could’ve gone down many ways. They could have just killed their way up mainstreet… Who would be prepared to stop them?

Then stop spewing slop everywhere, AI or not

Try moving your vision, not your eye, to the bottom when it’s dark. You can learn to see in the dark pretty easily, and with practice you can focus and split your attention within your field of vision

And basically every election has flipped 20 points across the board. The time for progressives has arrived, I just hope we have the energy to carry us through it

It’s really not. It’s the amount of time and frequency, and also how much you’re treating them like a person

And does no one else know how to look out the corner of your eye?

Exactly. We still have to have a society, we just need to be considerate about it

I tell myself that the grief is me feeling bad for myself.

How did they go? Was it mercifully fast or drawn out? Was it painful? Were they ready?

And so I try to channel my grief though empathy for their pain rather then focusing on my own feelings of mood

I’m trying to move to a better area, one where things can get better locally

Even if the country ends, we’re not all going to die. We’re going to have to organize locally, and I’d rather be somewhere where I can do that
