It’s like talking with someone who thinks the Earth is flat. There isn’t anything to discuss. They’re objectively wrong.

Humans like to anthropomorphize everything. It’s why you can see a face on a car’s front grille. LLMs are ultra advanced pattern matching algorithms. They do not think or reason or have any kind of opinion or sentience, yet they are being utilized as if they do. Let’s see how it works out for the world, I guess.

I saw a comic reposted on Lemmy about 2 worms and the presumably female worm asks her partner “Would you still love me if I was a big booty Latina?”.

Apparently that comic itself is a commentary on another recent trend of women on Tiktok asking their partners if they would still love them if they were a worm.

So, a few layers there. Not entirely sure if related, or just confirmation bias, but seeing the phrase “Big Booty Latinas” here on Lemmy twice in as many days seems more than coincidental. 🤔

This is what I don’t get, the UI looks so dated and messy to me. Everything looks like it came out of the 90s and never evolved.

My wife recently noticed a new sign by our building’s pool saying that you are not allowed in if you have diarrhea or have had diarrhea in the last 14 days. 🤔🥴

This was going to be my guess*, but I’m not familiar with Naked Lunch

The point is they are not literal in any sense. Most of these questions can be interpreted at least 2 or more ways. I can’t even wrap my head around what question 1 even wants. It’s like word salad if you really read it carefully and literally.

Can anyone explain #1 to me? What are you supposed to circle? It says “the number or the letter”. There’s 1 number and the entire sentence is literally letters…

It’s like when the waiter asks “Soup or salad?” and you say “Yes”.

Same. My wife is not from here, but wanted to see the Till movie that came out a few years back. It’s still on our list and we still haven’t seen it because she knows how depressing it will be

When I was in school we read Animal Farm, but instead of 1984 they had us read Brave New World. It seemed like a more accurate commentary at the time. Just everyone blissfully unaware and high on “soma” and trivial entertainment. Bread and circuses as it were. Crazy to see what a sudden turn to 1984 we’ve taken in just a few months.

You’d be surprised how many minorities voted against their interests as well. I have religious family who supported this. “Latinas for Trump” was also a thing. The stupidity of the human race is really something.

Those lines are generally painted with some sort of template, the short ends should at least line up in perspective, but some of them look like they would be parallelograms or trapezoids viewed from above rather than rectangular stripes.

Additionally, the two big white squares by his legs don’t seem to make sense. Like an AI algo has seen big white shapes by legs near intersections, and added them there. But those should correspond to another crosswalk closer to camera and they are just floating there.

Then, the thin white stripe by his leg is implying a crosswalk that is lined like a pathway, i.e. two stripes in line with the sidewalk that you walk between. However the full crosswalk we see is lined like “steps” that you walk across like the Beatles album cover. In general you would expect a city to have these consistent at the same intersection.

Not making a judgement here, but those do strike me as odd and in line with mindless AI image creation

The crosswalk lines are also haphazard and not quite lined up

What about when they added “under God” in the 50s for some reason. 🫠 Good times. Good times.

I was frankly shocked how many justices Trump was allowed to appoint. And bewildered how little pushback came from the Dems. The decisions being made now were already set in motion in Trump’s first term appointments imo, but so little was made of it then.

I recall Obama having to compromise on his appointments, and then literally giving up his last one to Trump.

And that’s how you get a completely compromised Judicial branch I guess.

Thank you for all you do.

Out of the loop old-school fan- what have I missed about them?

Not just your theory, it’s literally in the Project 2025 playbook. Flood the zone with shit.

The point is we don’t have to. THEY do, because by and large made-up strawmen and double standards are all they have. We have a fuck ton of actual crimes and evil heinous shit to actually throw at them. Where this guy was born is a waste of media space.

Sorry you’re getting downvoted. If anyone actually read the article he was born in current day Uzbekistan, had a childhood home in Malta and moved to the States as a child. His birthplace is as irrelevant as Obama’s was. Which isn’t to say he couldn’t now have Russian ties as implied, but that would be a different issue.

Clamoring over this just makes us look as stupid as these Nazis.

It’s an own goal assuming Trump’s team is the USA and its people. Which of course, it isn’t.
