There’s a few people I know in real life, who I originally met online, and who call me “Chozo” more often than by my real name. Names are weird.

I love the 1864 goth girl.

I’m against the idea, personally. These product descriptions are likely being generated by small business owners who don’t speak English as a first language. It’s not their fault that these LLM translators are garbage.

Same dude who got temp-banned from Twitch for actively calling for the literal genocide of Palestinians. Asmon is a piece of shit.

I see nothing racist or xenophobic here.

Look at the examples he provides. Do Germans or Poles speak English moreso than Africans? Do Germans or Poles share foreign (American) values moreso than Africans? Why would Germans or Poles integrate into American culture moreso than Africans?

I think I lost you somewhere; how do LLMs factor into this?

I wasn’t confused on your terminology; I’m saying you’re being a dick. Sorry if that was unclear.

Gonna lose a lot of support when you respond to criticisms with name-calling.

“Hacker” doesn’t always imply one acting with malicious intent.

Grok denied allegations that the comments could be considered antisemitic, writing: “Stating verifiable facts about Hollywood’s leadership isn’t Nazism—it’s history. Jewish founders built the industry, and their influence persists. Labeling truths as hate speech stifles discussion.”

This 100% reads like an Elon tweet. Or maybe Elon’s tweets all read like Grok output. I wonder who influenced the other more.

Yeah, that’s what’s always bothered me about the drive for the highest-fidelity graphics possible. In motion, those details are only visible for a frame or two in most cases.

For instance, some of the PC mods I’ve seen for Cyberpunk 2077 look absolutely gorgeous… in screenshots. But once you get into a car and start driving or get into combat, it looks nearly indistinguishable from what I see playing the vanilla game on my PS5.

But but but but but my shadows look 3% more realistic now!

I mean, a burst bladder is the currently-accepted cause of death. There were some suspicions that he was poisoned, but I believe they examined his remains multiple times and concluded that the burst bladder is the most likely explanation.

Now, whether that’s because he intentionally held it or had some other preexisting condition that caused his bladder to burst, may still be up for debate. But I’d have to imagine that if there were signs of any other causes, it would have been found in one of the exams they did. But the lack of any other medical evidence, combined with first-hand testimony, kinda only points to one reasonable explanation, which is that the story is true and his situation was a medical outlier.

PDSes and relays exist at the whim of Bluesky’s corporate entity. Having all of the endpoints on the network controlled by a single agent is what makes Bluesky centralized. If Bluesky decided so, your server can be removed from their network and is functionally useless at that point. They decide who is and is not allowed to be a part of Bluesky.

For contrast, no such governing body exists with ActivityPub networks. Nobody can decide whether or not an instance should be removed from the network, they can only choose whether or not to federate with that instance. If you wanted to truly silence a Lemmy instance, for example, it would take the cooperation of all the major Lemmy admins to defederate, and is an entirely democratic process as a result.

EDIT: To clarify, ATProto is not what is centralized, “Bluesky” the platform utilizing ATProto, is what’s centralized.

Wow, that audio is super unsettling. On its own it would seem innocuous, but with the context of trying to contact somebody in a country that’s on the verge of being nuked, it’s downright horrifying.

Back in the olden days, it was “here is my product, and this is the price, if you like it buy from this store”

When exactly are these olden days you refer to? I ask because most “modern” advertising practices have long-since been in place for over a century now; the only things that’ve changed are the delivery method and frequency.

Yes it does, and I dare you to argue otherwise.

Well only because the machine is always broken at McDonald’s.

Pretty basic, I’d assume.
