- Comment on Authorities must effectively regulate social media instead of banning children and young people 5 weeks ago:
That’s much harder which is why they aren’t doing it.

The only down side, IMO, is that the models are proprietary and closed.
- Comment on Pokémon Go Players Have Unwittingly Trained AI to Navigate the World 5 weeks ago:
It’s only going to hallucinate until it gets new input from reality. Not nearly as precarious as generative models.
- Comment on how did you master splits (for flexibility)? 1 month ago:
Use ropes to pull your legs apart while you lay on your back on a table. Also work on the splits with each foot on a separate chair.

I’m not saying they would or they wouldn’t, but if they would, and I’m not saying they would, they would distribute the keys to the Blu-ray players online so other people could use their rightfully purchased discs in any way they pleased on their own hardware.

- Comment on Grand Theft Auto V gets BattlEye anti-cheat, breaks online play on Steam Deck / Linux 3 months ago:
This game has such trash net code. It’s surprising they won’t fix it considering how much cash they’re milking from it. But I guess it’s cheaper to lose players than to make it better for everyone…
