mhague,

I can’t get Xi to show up in the results proper but he shows up as the thumbnail in the search suggestion Nimrod.

mhague,

No, this isn’t right. This needs more grease.

We have seen 20 minutes of 'Dune II' with Villeneuve and we have good news: the expectation is more than justified (www.ruetir.com)

Last November we had the opportunity to attend an exclusive twenty-minute screening of ‘Dune: Part II’, the highly anticipated second installment of the monumental adaptation of Frank Herbert’s science fiction classic that Denis Villeneuve is carrying out. Of course, it is early to give an opinion, but we can assure that...

I’ve only seen Frank Herbert’s Dune but I thought the new one was too quickly paced and consequently boring. It needed to be slowed down and allow the world of Dune to fully seep. There’s no chance that part two will fix this.

I want to see the second too, the first’s visuals were interesting and even if I wanted it to be 3 hrs long it’s still more Dune.

mhague,

I wouldn’t mind some ‘uncomfortably long’ shots of rocks or something after the more storyful scenes. Like a 20 minute segment with no dialogue. We don’t get enough of that.

Would go great in a spiritual scifi whose protagonist is a planet.

This is just one angle:

It’s because money and resources are only valuable in a literal, clinical way. It’s a math problem that beats us over the head until we start thinking that’s how you measure value. That crap is how we sustain our bodies but not our “spirit.” True value comes from humans transmuting basic matter into feelings, sentiments, memories. All the money in the world couldn’t help Gates buy a good gift for himself. He needs people close to him to transmute objects into meaningful gifts.

I think the richer you are, the more aware you are that “money can’t buy happiness.” When we plebs hear this we can’t help but think about the literal value of things, but if you’re rich it takes on a different connotation. Though I can only assume and extrapolate what it must be like.

mhague,

Chappelle thought he cared about racists unironically parroting his jokes to hurt people. Ran away and found himself. Found a man who doesn’t actually care about his platform being used to hurt people. He just didn’t want to hurt his people. As long as the people around him aren’t hurting, he’s fine. The dude’s got the (rhetorical) soul of a conservative.

Even armies with early guns had trouble with them. It’s impressive that anyone managed to fend that off with swords and bows.

Or maybe the basilisk is watching now? The idea that it could simulate people in order to punish them implies it might have already happened.

If you use humans to fine tune and judge the quality of output, then in some sense, that’s pretty much all the AI can possibly do.

Everyone can see the output, “I don’t know.” and mark it zero (dude). But the meat bags will definitely end up rewarding the model if it instead generates some plausible nonsense.
