/u/outwrangle before everything went to shit in 2020, /u/emma_lazarus for a while after that, now I’m all queermunist!

The targets are selected by AI dude, they’re just killing whoever the chatbots tell them to kill. 🙄

queermunist, (edited )

ugh yeah that’s its name, forgot how fucking awful it was

40k was supposed to be a parody 🤢

queermunist,

Power poles seem pretty vulnerable.

queermunist,

If traffic cameras worked to prevent traffic violations they wouldn’t be revenue streams. People would just rationally follow the traffic laws to avoid consequences. Yet, in the real world, we know it will only slow down the people who think about consequences.

queermunist,

We could expropriate the expropriators. 😉

queermunist, (edited )

Well yeah, because China is a functional country that wants to actually decrease traffic violations.

The point of American cameras is to raise funds. That’s why there’s no immediate feedback for when you get a ticket. They don’t want people to connect their driving to consequences, they want the consequences to be distant with no immediate impact.

All it would take is for traffic cameras to flash drivers when they get a ticket. It’d be that easy. Yet it will never happen.

queermunist, (edited )

Absolutely.

America does this thing where only some areas have cameras, creating huge dead zones with no camera enforcement. This is done to catch drivers off-guard so that more traffic tickets are given out. As I understand it, China just has cameras on every street because their goal is to decrease traffic violations and not just generate ticket revenue.

I still think my idea of traffic cameras flashing drivers when they get ticketed would be effective, but China has it figured out.

queermunist,

Oh wow, warning flashes for green lights would be so helpful! There’s an intersection on the way to work where I live that has a four way stop, but at highway speeds. You have to hit the brakes hard when the light turns yellow or you’ll blow through when it turns red 😅

queermunist,

They literally can’t be both. If the camera is a revenue stream then people are constantly getting tickets, which means nothing has been solved.

I don’t really care about motorists, but that doesn’t stop me from acknowledging these as a scam

queermunist,

The vast majority of Americans don’t even know that ‘merriment’ is a word. They just know you’re supposed to say ‘Merry Christmas.’ That’s it.

Can anyone else feel sensations in their brain?

Last time I checked there aren’t nerve endings in our brain, so it should be impossible to feel sensations in my brain. However, at random times during my life, like seeing the plot twist in Fight Club for example, I’ve felt feelings in my brain. I just felt it again now while doing some intense introspection, and I just...

queermunist,

Anyone who has had discontinuation syndrome knows the experience of “brain zaps” - basically feels like an electric shock toy going off inside your head somewhere behind your eyes/sinuses. Is it anything like that?

queermunist,

Fools. By exposing them to a low enough dose over and long enough period of time you will breed a new form of super vampires, completely immune to holy water!

queermunist,

No, cracker, you are not the victim of racism.

queermunist,

If the Borg would just ask me nicely I’d totally let myself be assimilated.

queermunist, (edited )

Fuck yes ebikes!

Not only do they slash oil demand, but manufacturing and maintaining an ebike has a fraction of the environmental impact of an electric car. Also, you can do a lot of the maintenance yourself with cheap tools and a small amount of work space. Also also, makes my ass look good~🍑

queermunist,

How come when I plagiarize other people’s creative content it’s illegal, but when AI does it it’s fine?

queermunist,

All these AI do is algorithmically copy-paste. They don’t have original thoughts and or original conclusions or original ideas, all if it is just copy-paste with extra steps.

queermunist,

People make derivative works because they add their own ideas and spin. AI do not have ideas or spin, it’s copy-paste with extra steps.

queermunist,

Chat bots do not learn, stop anthropomorphizing them.

queermunist,

The tech requires huge amounts of processing power and loose laws to even exist. It could be banned quite easily.

It won’t be lol

queermunist,

What it does is use a large statistical model to determine which pixels it copies, but it’s still copy/paste with extra steps.

queermunist,

Far be it from me to defend the concept of intellectual property, but if a chat bot can be argued to not plagiarize then that implies it has an intelligence. It really doesn’t. It’s plagiarism with extra steps.

queermunist,

I think they’re saying the dumbest shit possible so Trump picks them for VP.

queermunist,

America will subsidize gasoline before it stops burning it.

queermunist,

The limit is the petrodollar, of course. Once that’s defunct the whole thing falls down.

Until then wheeeeeeeee~!
