Waydroid works great on my steam deck

The end? Is he dead now? Was this some kind of death-bed confession or something? Did he at least donate his time to the cause that he got paid so much to tear down?

Oh, no, he’s just getting paid by someone new now. He doesn’t need credit, he cashed in just fine on MAGA and now he’d also like a check from the gays. The correct message is ‘Working for the nazis leaves a stain on your reputation that a compensated non-apology will not wash away’

Are you by any chance a battered spouse, eager to accept any insincerity?

I think this will come down to us defining ‘intelligence’ in fundamentally different ways, so arguing over that term won’t get us anywhere. Smart isn’t a monolith, in that someone who is ‘intelligent’ will automatically make intelligent choices in all aspects of their life, instead intelligence tends to be siloed into particular areas. Sometimes intelligence just lets one rationalize themselves into incredibly self destructive positions. Those are the one I would consider ‘dumb’ in this scenario, not through lack of raw intelligence but in the embrace of stupid behaviors such as, as we say, staying inside the burning house while rationalizing that the fire might go out before it gets to them and burns them up.

Critically those self deluding people will argue themselves into behaviors that closely mimic those who simply cannot comprehend the situation at all, and as such their kindness and intelligence becomes a distinction without a difference.

I think if you set a house on fire the people who run out could be considered smart while the people who stay inside hoping the fire doesn’t notice them could be considered dumb.

It makes more sense if you accept that one of the fundamental goals of the war is to reduce specific demographics of the Russian population. If the smart ones flee and the dumb ones are conscripted and marched into the ocean you’re left with a docile middle of the road cattle population with no will to struggle against the elite.

I’m just happy that the cancer is obvious and can be isolated, this is something that simply cannot be done on non-federated platforms where the head is already rotting.

It doesn’t really though, rubbing one is the equivalent of a really weak Pho; no matter how good it was in the moment you’ll be starving by dinner, like eat-your-napkin starving to death.

amen to that, I’ve noticed that 90% of the trash takes come from one of those two

I’m going to go ahead and say that ‘side loading’ is something that does not require approval or authorization from the owner of the system that does the ‘regular loading’. So if it requires google authorization, it’s not ‘side loading’, it’s alternative regular loading. Your attitude is very ‘segregation won’t affect you if you’re white’.

Whenever the money supply gets low they liquidate a Russian CEO and grab the assets. The whole point of giving all the money to just a few people means that when Putin needs some cash he knows exactly where to go to get it. 100% tax rate on the least popular oligarchs!

If you directly ask for cuil levels things get weird fast. It understands cuil and is very willing to play along. One could say it plays to the strengths of the LLM directly!

That’s a really savvy insight! To expand this analogy further, it’s like your phone or computer gives you a free chicken nugget from a small container attached to the side of the device anytime you search for anything at all. It’s room temperature and often spoiled, it’s your choice whether you eat it or not, but you’re going to get it either way. As such you cannot easily choose to avoid chicken in hopes that that will disincentivize further chicken slaughter.

Modern laws rarely if ever have anything to do with what they claim to be changing. Just figure out where the graft is flowing and that’s your answer. There’s no graft to be had with mastodon because nobody is making any money there so at first it’s simply ignored unless it annoys someone in Nepal’s government. If an instance suddenly started getting popular and making money in Nepal then it gets on their radar and they have to start paying bribes to continue operating just like the big guys, and there will be no room at all for a ‘medium guy’ who makes a little profit but not enough to comply with the requirements of corruption.

The ritual, known as the metzitzah b’peh, is a type of circumcision in which the person performing the procedure, or mohel, directly places his mouth on and sucks the blood from the baby’s newly circumcised penis.

The controversial ritual came under intense scrutiny earlier this year after health officials reported 11 babies had contracted herpes infections between 2000 and 2011.

“By telling a mohel he is prohibited from performing a religious ritual unless he tells the parents that, by the way, the child might die in the process, you are forcing us to say something which we are convinced is wrong,” said Rabbi David Niederman of the Brooklyn-based United Jewish Organization of Williamsburg.

to be honest that’s exactly why I’m on arch and not ubuntu or cntos. Ironically it was gpt that helped me get it set up and it would have had a lot more trouble without it, but now that the job is done I don’t want it hanging around in the OS like ‘hey buddy squeaking past ya gettn a beer’

Have you tried getting high too?

Rick and Morty did this once, Rick simply put on a hat with a QR code that made a robot army recognize him as a high level commander.

A few days ago I read a short story, comp.basilisk.faq by David Langford, which sketched a world in which specific images could irreversibly crash the brain, leading to a full scale worldwide ban on images on the internet and many other places as well. The story postulated hundreds of potential info-hazards with many of them simple enough to be applied via stencil and spray paint. Two of them are branch families of the Mandelbrot set ‘and no we won’t tell you where, do not look’

• Blit — David Langford
• The Atrocity Archives — Charles Stross
• Doctor Who — “Blink” / “The Time of the Doctor”
• SCP Foundation — SCP-096
• SCP-7387 (“The Mathematician’s Grin”)

I installed arch recently, and the steam client was pretty easy to install. What really shocked me is that all the stuff that works fine on my steam deck also works fine in arch, so that’s nice

Not if they death you first!
