  • But how will AI learn to be a thin-skinned, small-dick energy twat? You know the type that only consumes information form a powerpoint deck for 10 seconds before launching into a million moronic questions because they didn’t read the tiny bit of information in the deck that they specifically asked for? Then they get mad because they’re giant toddlers who are more than anything, just some rich guy’s idiot kid.

    I’m not the corporate powerhouse, but I am c-suite adjacent. I can’t count how many times these pricks move right to emotional manipulation. They really are one-trick ponies. Some know a little finance, and they will make the little they know into a huge deal. They’re just dinosaurs with a disposition to match.

    I would MUCH rather work for an AI than some of these peabrained assholes.



  • I don’t know, it seems to me that most people know how to ask a question or make a request. It’s not that different. It’s just that a lot of people don’t understand what is possible and they freeze.

    You tell them, to ask for anything you want. They uncork and say “So I can ask it for a chocolate cream pie?”. Partially in jest, but they do that because they don’t seem to have a comfortable knowledge of the limits. A person with little technical background has no need for output that they don’t understand. Once you guide them a little and let them know they can get a recipe for a chocolate cream pie and some practical advice on how to make it, that might be helpful, but little better than just looking up a recipe. You’d have to let them know that they can find multiple variants of recipes and have it rank them, compare them, and produce a summary of the most popular types. By now they’ve stopped listening and have gone to the grocery store to buy a chocolate cream pie and you’re standing there hoping they will give you a piece.

    In summary, I wish I had some pie. What was the question?







  • Books are one of the few things I am more than willing to pay full price for.

    Sure the publishers eat a lot of the money, but the authors don’t do too badly.

    The very nature of a book (unless something is published as an e-book only) keeps it from being enshittfied like streaming audio and video services. If someone were to print an ad in the book, I could just rip it out and throw it away.

    Books are one of the last places where you just will not see an ad or be tracked, or have popups, and other irritating “features”.

    Books are good.





  • That’s not the problem here. Showing a notification with content is not a big deal.

    In the case stated here, the big deal is that the notification HISTORY was preserved after removal of Signal. That’s because both Apple and Google do the same thing. They keep a notification history. Not on a per-app basis, ALL apps notification history is stored.

    I know that on Androids, it is turned off by default and you can turn it on, so you get the impression that Android doesn’t have this issue. I am going to guess as I do not own an apple anything that iOS has notification history turned on by default. This is the real problem. This is not anything Signal can control for unless they were to not support notifications which would render their app useless, so that’s not an option.



  • I run a LLM on my local machine to to sex fantasy stuff.

    I like strange things. Nobody wants what I want, so am I just supposed to become even WEIRDER than I am, let all that kinky energy turn toxic and then rapey or just type for 20 minutes a day about butt sex with an LLM that thinks everything I come up with is fantastic? Seems like the latter is pretty mild compared to the former.

    We’d probably have a lot fewer rapey guys in the world when sex bots are a thing. Some dudes are just unfuckably gross. The world knows it, they know it. They didn’t choose to look gross, have a weird body, be something unappealing, but they still have monkey instincts to stick their dick into something. That doesn’t just go away because you’re not good looking. It will turn into some bad energy if you just have to live your life that way. I mean, you don’t have to look hard to see it in the world around us.
