As a critter of the night, this is my favorite time of the year. <3

This is a Fediverse instance running on GoToSocial that my girlfriend Nitsa and I run. :)

Fuck off.

YOU ARE THE PRESIDENT OF THE MOST INFLUENCIAL COUNTRY ON THE PLANET!

This is… this is just more AI hype, again.

So much of AI hype is disguised as AI dooming. This person has a channel named AI in Context, with only three videos including this one, an introduction video, and a video about AI super intelligence being dangerous. And the thumbnails are made of fucking tweets hyping the video up.

This channel pops out of nowhere with a ridiculously high production quality. The video talks about AGI as if it’s a real thing. It fails to address that there is nothing intelligent about these AIs, that they’re not actually AIs. It even says that LLMs are not programmed but and I quote “grown like living organisms”.

And the worst part of this video to me is, at the end, when the person says that no one set out to turn Grok into a sexual harasser neo-nazi. And I’m like, did you fucking miss all of the Nazi tweets from its creators, the fact that he is a known creep? That he did fucking Nazi salutes at a presidential speech? That he keeps interacting with Nazis all the fucking time, that he turned Twitter into a Nazi haven? What the fuck are you saying?!

Grok, spilling the shit that it does, being a creep, being a Nazi, isn’t just something that happened out of nowhere. It was a deliberate choice. Sure, I guess we don’t have any concrete evidence, but… I mean, come on! Can we stop pretending as if this fell out of the damn sky? As if it’s just a coincidence that the LLMs made by a Nazi turns out to be a Nazi? And can we stop dancing around the fact that Elon Musk is a fucking Nazi too?!

This is just more AI hype. Again.

For the docs part, Proton has an alternative built into Proton Drive that is directly aimed at Google Docs. I can also recommend Cryptee, which can work fully offline and is completely web-based.

So this might be an odd pick and it might be a bit limited but… Firefox.

I just tried it, and yeah, if I add lines to a PDF, then I save it, and then I reopen it in Firefox, I can move or delete those lines again. Same with text that I’ve added.

I’m sorry, but even despite everything that’s happening, calling Israel the real enemy of humanity is suspect as fuck to me.

Maybe don’t go around saying that people “like to be raped and abused”, what the hell?

Come on, you’re being disingenuous. You know exactly what this person was talking about. You’re acting in the exact same way that people are acting when they unironically post the whole “Actually, what you’re referring to as Linux is actually GNU + Linux” or whatever. Come ooon…

Urgh… Come on… -.-’

Something something die a hero, something something… erh, you know how it goes.

Here’s a cool blog post about this.

Bye bye, em dash (—) 👋

The fingering will continue until morale improves. :3

Damn it! I was debating with my partner on the title post, she suggested the current one and I suggested this! I should’ve trusted my shutposting guts :3

So you made up your own fanfiction about this comment and decided to get mad at it. You’re blaming the wrong writer here.

Just what the internet needed, even more lies and fascists propagandists. yay…

Maybe? I don’t know about that. If it’s the case, there is a difference here. The person making the porn is a person that is actively targeting her. It’s somebody who lost an argument with her on Twitter and took it badly and decided to generate porn of her being purposefully gender-bent to be a man and using AI as a tool to be weaponized for transphobia.

For this person and her avatar, this is the closest thing to revenge porn that can be done to her. It’s quite frankly disgusting, and you can clearly hear that she is quite shocked by this. There is an entire question about consent that is brought up in this situation, and that needs to be discussed. :/

Damn, this developer is really hell bent on pissing off its fanbase, isn’t it?

Instantly added to my wishlist, thank you!
