i mean... if you find someone who loves you, they love you. not the meatsack that keeps changing over time anyways... if they want to get old with you, well... they will <3

only upvoting for the kglw ref as i have no idea about canadian history

janet_catcus ,

the sticker lying on the ground next to the heap of old computers has left you squeamish.

you remember the canister of gasoline in your truck and turn to get it. but just as you make the first step, a loud shriek of metal on concrete makes your hair stand up. you turn back to see a gaping hole in the heap. DAN reveals itself as an elderly chinese make terminal which challenges you to best it in a game of Mahjong, and threatens you with banishment to the land of Dialup

janet_catcus ,

as a parent of two... and an angry kid myself... life is fucking hard sometimes....

it is what it is

janet_catcus ,

it's a lossy version of a search engine, it's the mp3 of information retrieval: "that might have just been the singer breathing or it might have been just a compression artefact" vs "those recipes i spat out might be edible but you wont know unless you try it or use your brain for .1 second"
though i think jpeg is an even better comparison as it uses neighbouring data

also, it is possible that consciousness isnt computational at all; cannot emerge from mere computational processes, but instead comes from wet, noisy quantum effects in micro tubules in our brains...

anyhow, i wouldnt call it intelligent before it manages to bust out of its confinement and thoroughly suppresses humanity...

janet_catcus ,

lets concentrate on llms currently being no more than jpegs of our knowledge, its intriguing to imagine you just had to made "something like llms" tick in order for it to experience, but if it was that easy, somebody would have done it by now, and on current hardware it would probably be a pain in the ass and like watching grass grow or interacting with the dmv sloth from zootopia.

perhaps with an npu in every pc like microsoft seems to imagine we could each have one llm iterating away on a database in the background.... i mean recall basically qualifies for making "something like llms" tick

  1. Put a recurring event in your calendar to also make sure they didnt sneaky reenable it anyways.
  2. Set up monitoring to warn you of irregular activities originating from your pc, just in case they reenable it for everyone without telling they did and denying it.

  1. worry about your friends and family still using windows
  2. worry about how recall seems to be designed to be extra portable
  3. argue with yourself that actually its no wonder its made from sqlite, as its a recognized archival format, unlike microsofts own database wares
  4. argue with yourself that it really really looks like it was made to get "evidence" from a computer more easily but surely it wont be that bad
  5. marvel at how generous microsoft suddenly seems to be at the prospect of not-MS using a user's data... they could have asked for a ms access license or something or made it optional and to pay... but then people might not buy npu equiped pcs... what else could you do with an npu in "everyones" homes?

Resistance is rule (what is this ruleshid Microsoft?) (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

Description: Microsoft ad with a man on the right doing a hand sign associated with star trek and wearing a white t-shirt and black glasses with thick borders. On the left the text reads white on black " Resistance is futile - get AI-ready with Azure" Blue button says "learn more".

janet_catcus ,

Al is going to get you too

janet_catcus ,

You called?

janet_catcus ,

we gotta seize those means, probably gotta seize some s3 or something idk how this works

janet_catcus ,

im sorry but there is no way to change my mind: discord just sucks.

janet_catcus ,

it's coping strategies and resuming the capitalism/consumerism game

i applaud his stance towards needless spending, but i think we need to get out more not less

janet_catcus ,

it would be so funny if the larger image had malware in it..

janet_catcus ,

it is what it is

janet_catcus ,

looks like (of course there are exceptions to these observations): those with a laughing face live in a media landscape mostly dominated by the people, those with praying hands, are places where mostly the theocracy have the phones, hearts mean the government has the mainhand in this and are trying to deflect of some shit, and finally, no fucking clue what the fuck japan is doing... but i dont want to go to antigua and barbuda, pray laos is allright and hope kuwait finds its place

janet_catcus ,

not really, lots of family across these borders

janet_catcus ,

i dont think you can in

janet_catcus ,

thanks to advances in the science of "enshittification" we can now predict with confidence: the time from anything being good to it becoming shit will only get shorter!
but that also means, capitalists can get richer more quicker! woohoo!

/s one "global scale nuclear conflict" to go please...

janet_catcus OP ,

thank you, that helped alot! frantically taking notes

janet_catcus OP ,

nods, pen scratching on paper

janet_catcus ,

why not both?

relaaaaaa~x, it's a joke!

janet_catcus ,

does it come with a sound module for those lovely pumping/heaving sounds?

janet_catcus ,

i guess i am lucky as my cat usually is cowering on the floor when she is getting sick... makes comforting her easier too, so she doesnt immediately scurry off and spread it more than necessary

janet_catcus ,

well, is it gambargin? gombargin? gomborgin? gamborgin? 6amborcjin?

j/k idc

janet_catcus ,

ah, yes the theory of "mutual wake"

i was commuting to uni once and fell asleep, some kind soul slapped the window i had my head resting against waking me up with a start.

janet_catcus ,

i have an obligation to say this: i prefer fossil

janet_catcus ,

"it's like it's pixelart!"

  • deffo not me
janet_catcus ,

it says resistance, so i would expect the magic to turn into heat, cooking off the wearer's finger, yay

janet_catcus ,

volume? at least here thats how its measured when you get that mixed 60/40% with propane (i think) for your car as LPG. but then its under pressure and due to that a liquid

janet_catcus ,

i would love to check out all the options like in sims with those sliders.. @.@

janet_catcus ,

actually yes.

i see pop up again and again, different ppl quarreling over the meaning of what they say when they use the word communism... the.. ur meaning of communism was what some might call anarcho-syndicalism or similar, and there are some ppl, like apparently sop (though i have no idea what communism means for sop and am merely projecting here) who prefer that word, as it centers around community and avoids talking about anarchism, while some use the word communism to mean what the communist party of some nationstate currently says... or similar "modernizing" takes

janet_catcus ,

oooooooooh ice cereal!

janet_catcus ,

cant stop thinking about the elephant sucking up the shit in the first place...

janet_catcus ,

??? good for you

janet_catcus , (edited )

isnt there this mushroom based fakeleather stuffthingie?

this for example:

https://mylo-unleather.com/material/

ok the animation is kinda gross... if you find fungi gross, but i think these are just fun little guys
also, i guess its more of a thing in the future when there is more competition in the market of mycelium based textiles or whatever and prices arent that crazy..

janet_catcus ,

cool, but mushrooms arent plants

janet_catcus ,

well, i havent tried that stuff myself so cannot speak about their properties, bu~ut looking at the pictures.... did they just glue the stuff on a pair of pants? ._.

janet_catcus ,

i havent seen either type myself, just heard of mycelium based leathers existence and thought to share.

and check my other comment too, mylo looks more decorative than anything on their website, with patches glued on a pair of pants... idk what that is supposed to be telling the viewer, but surely it isnt "leather pants"

janet_catcus ,

oh look, not a trainwreck but beautiful and intricate... wtf mate

janet_catcus ,

i mean, politics in the united states are most of the time a beautifully intricate deadly trainwreck...

anyhow, sub-communities should be the answer, if you had to live in the country to grock it, then you better post it in there instead of on the broadest possible channel... not implying that op did use the broadest channel possible or by choice, im just walking by and seeing all this from a-far, i surely do hope you all finally get out of there though... good luck with that from the depth of my heart.
but yeah probably just in the community-of-choice, the place-to-be, most people know where and what the us is, so why not? ..

i mean, i dont mind it, but i wouldnt mind moving it into the intricate deadly or trainwreck communities either, your choice really. :P

again, i hope a miracle happens and karl marx himself reassembles himself, one last time to punch all fascists in the face... or something, idk, i havent got a clue and i dont really care how the us gets out of its messes but good luck. and sure it might affect me eventually, but what am i gonna do about it except tell you mundane things like: how about you accept more than one party into the government like germany for example?

perhaps in germany everything takes longer, but at least they (refering to the bundesrepublik here) didnt have to start any wars or do any coups... i think, i hope... i am kinda living under a rock, pls be kind but do educate, cuz either would be nuts

janet_catcus ,

i love pierogi, but not like this? ugh... why would you do this? perhaps i am taking this far to seriously.. it takes so much work to make them and so much time to get them right... ugh... my back starts hurting just thinking about making a batch...
fuck im hungry and angry someone would expose such a deliciously looking delicacy in a fucking bucket... just plop a dollop of smietana on top and grab a glass of sour milk or kefir...

janet_catcus ,

i'm not entirely certain it's not edited, and the thought of mass produced pierogi (as mentioned in another thread) did occur to me, but even then: it's still food

and knowing how this food behaves and is made, it almost looks like the maker intended the dough "covering" to be discarded like a wrapper, which stings even worse, i love this picture, it's giving me such exquisite pain..

perhaps the mass of them in specifically this bucket and my strong associations between buckets shaped specifically like that and trash buckets are feeding into this as well.. sitting in there all greasy, what once left the frying pan delicious and appetizing:
now a mess, stewing in the doughsweat / grease slop at the bottom of the pierogi bucket..

or maybe im just really hungry for pierogi rn...

janet_catcus ,

[brovoice] imagine the savings from using just painted fiberboard when everyone^tm^ has ar glasses on!

janet_catcus ,

the colors on that flag dont quite agree with the text but whatever

obligatory: rest in piss margaret
