I think you have misunderstood my comment in some fundamental way.

Just peek at his profile and it will all make sense.

TL;DR don’t feed the troll.

Reminds me of one of the truest comics I ever read.

Yes but also that mirror positioning. The last thing I want to do while shitting is stare at myself shitting.

I understand why folks think violet is a LARP, but I don’t. She’s too matter of fact about her posts and doesn’t seem to care very much if folks give her attention for it or not. She barely comments in reply to her posts, and most of all she has explicitly said she’ll never share a pic of herself.

I think someone larping would be way more over the top with what and how they posted, would post and comment more frequently, and would for sure generate some AI thirst trap (or just steal someone else’s picture) and claim it to be her.

YMMV, and reasonable folks can disagree, but I think violet is exactly what she claims to be.

Nice try Violet08, you’ve exposed your alt account.

What don’t get is how they didn’t see the “invisible” text when they were copying it to paste it into the AI. Any tool I’ve ever used to select and copy text highlights it in a way that would show the “invisible” part. Was the question just so long that they could easily miss it?

I love the story but I’m a little skeptical just because of this one detail.

This is basically history repeating itself again with the Beehaw defederation.

I’ve been around the fediverse longer than the age of my account would suggest, but I missed the drama around Beehaw somehow - what was the story there?

I never get tired of that video. I’m excited each and every time I run across it.

Edit: Better quality here. Starts with an intro but you can actually make out faces etc on this one.

When they moved the pivot point from the center of the cartridge to the bottom, they lost me. Still using my probably 30 year old Sensor handle and cartridges, and probably will until I die.

Our shield TV recently stopped allowing Projectivy launcher (the 3rd party one we were using) to be bound to the home button on the remote. I can launch Projectivy and switch to it, but as soon as I hit the home button it’s right back to the default launcher.

I assumed this was something nvidia (or google) did to be dicks, but it sounds like that hasn’t happened to you, so now I’m less sure.

What 3rd party launcher are you using? Maybe I should try a different one.

Thank you!

I watched with sound off so apologies if this was mentioned, but why the F are they not getting out of dodge? Is the train disabled in some way - guessing it’s not or the guy wouldn’t be taking the time to get a video on his phone.

I’d only be videoing that horrifying up close fire as we drove away from it.

Carry on with your ballonilingus and be happy.

That’s gotta be a sentence no one has ever said before.

That was pretty horrifying.

But the worst thing I ever witnessed was a Gen Z girl searching Google for Yahoo, then searching Yahoo for Yahoo mail.

Reminds me of my wife’s cousin who would always search google for facebook then click the facebook.com link. Every time she wanted to go to facebook this is what she did. (This was on a desktop computer in pre-smartphone days.)

. One person even said bacteria has more consciousness than AI, which is ridiculous because bacteria clearly don’t have the same level of consciousness and context as AI, however the latter has little of.

AI as being discussed here has zero consciousness. Zero.

And even more rarely the famed roflcopter.

Not who you replied to, but reading all the haters’ comments has become part of the pizzacake experience for me. Personally, I’m not sure why so many people spend so much of their own time and energy making the same criticisms over and over, but I know I will see the comments every time one of her comics is posted.
