I think it makes sense. Life as we know may not have a defined "edge" between alive and not alive. Simply a spectrum.

All life as we know does seem to reproduce but maybe a better definition is that it increases something similar to chaos or entropy.

Ironically the people who view others as NPC (and say so in a disparaging way) are likely more one dimensional themselves. I think you're spot on with the narcissism viewpoint.

Interesting. What did that accomplish ?

I just rewatched Mr Robot and that actually sounds cool. What was the secret setting ?

People commonly knowing about Rhabdo is a much newer thing. I never heard people talk regularly about it all before CrossFit become popular

Is it that buggy ? Orion works pretty well for me. Where you have you ran into bugs ?

LG V series is a few years old but I know some had them

Examples ?

Wouldn't most patch cables also be double male ends ?

Also probably a more flexible jacket and thinner. Vs fire resistant / plénum cables for fixed / in wall stuff.

California was also in a super drought at that time

Apparently they can also tell other crows if they like you. Or their car. There's reports of them chasing off other birds away from people they like (and their vehicle or house).

We're reaching new heights of neuro-plasticity

I'm not sure if that's a dad joke or the microplastics in my brain telling me it is

Surprised they don't have something in between a video generation and image generation model (literally like storyboarding) which still took into account physics and world knowledge. You could probably (relatively cheaply) generate decently high resolution storyboards and then have something to directly feed a video model at the end.

I don't think it does. They could probably throw a shitload of compute at Gemini and have something more competitive. Instead they seem focused on the actual innovative research which I think will pay off long term.

Gemma 4 I am way more impressed by than whatever the top ranking model is

Probably the ones we collectively value as human and are willing to pay for (in either our time or money or both).

And jobs where quality is paramount and or there is greater chance of risk / bodily harm

People pretty consistently vote with their wallet and are not excited to pay and consume media made by AI.

Exactly. Or a competitor comes in and does what you do for half the cost and double the efficiency.

If they still have to pay an actual person though to license their likeness then they are much more likely to actually employ that person directly to get a better result. And in the cases where quality is not needed the person still gets paid for their AI likeness.

Seems like a reasonable take

A software union probably wouldn't tell you what tools to use when writing code. It would help protect you from being completed replaced by code

Nurses have very strict legal requirements on when they can strike and for how long. Not unlike railroad workers.

When have you not been able to get timely medical treatment at the fault of nurses ?

People also forget the role they play in protecting and helping corporations. Without unions as a legal and negotiating intermediary you get things like factory workers burning down the factories when they are overly exploited.

They've also been proven to increase wages for people in the same industry who are not even in the union due to raising the floor in general for what good labor should cost

Software engineers and VFX workers also tried to unionise back in the day and there was a giant wage fixing and anti competitive hiring scandal that was majorly illegal. Perpetuated by some of the biggest names in tech.

They settled for a large undisclosed sum out of court. But largely won unfortunately as unionisation efforts failed

The giant strikes were hugely based on AI issues

I wonder if cross training models specifically on people who combine languages (like Spanglish) would help with this. Surely must be patterns in what words people choose to use in each language

Probably safest to take a layered approach. Something with long update timeline and verifiable source. And then additionally use encrypted communication on your devices behind that router (DNS as well)

I haven't seen this yet. Never used the app - I use the mobile site usually while logged in (but not always). Unfortunately a few features are missing (like being able to see all items for some reason by a specific seller) but otherwise it works well.

Is this you on X or did you link to a random post ?

I don't think it works anymore. Tried various instances out there. Have you used it or found a working one ?

Something to use with a normal web browser that requires no login would be nice. Like Libreddit or Nitter.

Was doing something similar. But couldn't this still be done with just a slightly more advanced replacement ?
