- Comment on Forget Netflix, Volkswagen locks horsepower behind paid subscription 1 week ago:
And I think you’re sucking corporate dick calling it a tune in the first place. So I guess we disagree. Is BMVs heated seats subscription a tune too?
- Comment on Forget Netflix, Volkswagen locks horsepower behind paid subscription 1 week ago:
And I’m saying “you can have software A or software B(and only those choices - both approved by the manufacturer)”, is not the same as tuning each individual setting and the freedom you have in doing so. Call it what it is, an alternate approved ECU map. Calling it a “tune” is giving them WAY too much credit and overshadows the main point: lack of control. This doesn’t give you control, it takes away and charges you for the privilege.
People mentioning classic tuning are glossing over the fact that you typically also change parts to accommodate the new tune and the new limits you are pushing. This “new tune” doesn’t do anything but allow the vehicle to do what it always could but was handicapped in software to charge you more for.
Stop bootlicking and call this scam what it is.
- Comment on Forget Netflix, Volkswagen locks horsepower behind paid subscription 1 week ago:
Nope. With tuning you can bypass the safety limits as well. You can easily tune the car to be unsafe or suffer extreme wear.
- Comment on If I invented a shirt that caused cameras to be damaged when filmed/photographed, would I be committing a crime by wearing the shirt at events with cameras? 2 weeks ago:
So I tried watching it and never saw them close the camera app or restart the phone, so again, waiting on some actual proof with some science behind it rather than “dude totally said so”. That only proves that the software controlling the picture adjustments has been sent out of whack(as evidenced by the fact that it would show true colors eventually when pointed at something else). If the pixels were “dead”, they wouldn’t reset. We have a separate phrase for that. It’s “stuck pixel”.

This is my thought: unless everyone uses it, they just have to track the one glowing dude. Eventually you’ll be in front of a camera or person who will identify you clearly, and it will be that much easier because you’re glowing.

Even that was debated. No one proved it continued when you took another video, just that it broke the video of the lidar itself.
- Comment on It's 2025, the year we decided we need a widespread slur for robots 3 weeks ago:
Especially when a “hard r” word is used. You’ll never convince me that’s not a coincidence. It’s just “funny racism”.
- Comment on It's 2025, the year we decided we need a widespread slur for robots 3 weeks ago:
Proving once again that humans desire an out-group to ridicule. We have very animal vehaviours and we delude ourselves into thinking we’re “enlightened”.
- Comment on YSK De-banking is often how the US first declares you "homeless" 4 weeks ago:
Cool. So you’re gonna fight made up things with more made up things and no one’s gonna believe you because, well, you’re a liar. Also love the all caps. So scary. Really terrified me over here. Hey, isn’t that how fascists get their way? By yelling and fear and intimidation? Oh wow, it’s like you’re becoming what you hate. Huh. How strange. It’s almost like there are people warning you not to become the monster you fight and here you are putting on fangs and fur…
You’re a tool 😂
- Comment on YSK De-banking is often how the US first declares you "homeless" 4 weeks ago:
Because actual facts matter. You can’t fight a fantasy. You have to fight the actual laws/orders/etc as they are, not what you imagined them to be in your head. Just because one side doesn’t follow logic doesn’t mean you get to disregard it too.
- Comment on Why doesn't the Trump administration simply edit the Epstein files and release them? 1 month ago:
Something I didn’t see mentioned: say you make a fakenlist, redacting the people you want to protect. What about the people you are now throwing under the bus? First your fake evidence has to make it past all of their lawyers scrutiny and hope you’re not revealed for your con, and then you have to hope that these people don’t have evidence that they can use to throw you under the bus as well. Releasing anyone’s name is likely to cause many more names to come out and the domino effect is way too unpredictable. It’s truly some mutually assured destruction.

Attention whore. That’s all you are.

Bullshit. In another comment you literally complain about them posting comments and not fixing this because in your words it should take less time to just fix it. You also say that their response(or lack of) to this specific post is interesting to you as proof of their inner motivations.
You’re so full of shit you can’t even keep it straight since you posted this an hour ago.

Oh I abso-fucking-lutely can imagine seeing someone spamming me with DMs or making a public post to try and shame me instead of commenting on the actual source project going straight into my “ignore this twat” pile. This post is just a cry for attention. You’re trying to be some sort of hero, saving us from evil or some shit.
Go make a GitHub request like a reasonable normal person and stop cluttering up others feeds with this inane bs.
- Comment on Robot performs first realistic surgery without human help: System trained on videos of surgeries performs like an expert surgeon 1 month ago:
And that’s all for analyzing statements. You can’t just do that to some words and discover objective truth out of nowhere, so I’m not sure what you think you’re accomplishing here. What you’re linking is more analogous to the code that underlies an AI(if/while loops and whatnot). Reasoning is closer to the scientific method of forming a hypothesis and whatnot than anything you linked.
You basically just pointed out that there’s a math system for logic. Neat.
- Comment on We need to stop pretending AI is intelligent 1 month ago:
I’ve been thinking this for awhile. When people say “AI isn’t really that smart, it’s just doing pattern recognition” all I can help but think is “don’t you realize that is one of the most commonly brought up traits concerning the human mind?” Pareidolia is literally the tendency to see faces in things because the human mind is constantly looking for the “face pattern”. Humans are at least 90% regurgitating previous data. It’s literally why you’re supposed to read and interact with babies so much. It’s how you learn “red glowy thing is hot”. It’s every annoying person who has endless “did you know?” facts. Science is literally “look at previous data, iterate a little bit, look at new data”.
None of what AI is doing is truly novel or different. But we’ve placed the human mind on this pedestal despite all the evidence to the contrary. Eyewitness testimony, optical illusions, the hundreds of common fallacies we fall prey to… Our minds in credibly fallible and are really just a hodgepodge of processes masquerading as “intelligence”. We’re a bunch of instincts in a trenchcoat.

And I’d do it again you fucking neckbeard. I don’t owe you shit. Don’t start a conversation trying to be a know it all douche and you wouldnt get treated like a know it all douche.
Now, you have 2 choices: you can stay here and keep responding and prove you’re a retarded troll…
Or you can fuck off. I think I already made it pretty clear that I value your opinion lower than pond scum, so what are you hoping to accomplish?
But go ahead, maybe next time I’ll have AI write my insults for me. You can choke on that slop.
- Comment on make fantasy great again! 2 months ago:
If I had said I searched it it wouldn’t be any different.
Get off your high horse and honestly, fuck you. You’re just a troll.
My comment also asked for the title and actually got that as a response.
All you’ve done is shit everywhere and show what a collassal jackass you are. Read the room. No one gives a shit. We’re talking about the game and you’re going off on some stupid half baked AI tangent.
Go touch some grass.

Thanks!

Yes, and I was hoping it would find articles or game descriptions that would give it an answer. I wasn’t expecting magic. I was expecting it to pull from its sources and regurgitate an answer. GTFO of here trying to “wElL AcKsHuLly, AI is…”
Crazy of me to think that in all the games journalism it’s pulled from that it might know. For the record, the answers it did give me were close and it was able to articulate why those answers might not be right because they didn’t meet all of my criteria and it elaborated as to why. The answer I got was actually fairly helpful, unlike whatever you just dumped out.

Adding to the requests for a name. I put your post into Gemini and it gave me a few choices, but all clearly wrong, before giving up and saying “it must be some obscure indie title”.

- Comment on Front Brake Lights Could Drastically Diminish Road Accident Rates 2 months ago:
Again, if you’re too stupid to make sure the multiton hunk of metal is coming to a stop by all the other obvious visual markers, including watching it’s speed compared to stationary objects like signs and lampposts, then this won’t do shit. People needore aweness of their surroundings, not a bunch of lights and horns because people won’t pay attention.
- Comment on Front Brake Lights Could Drastically Diminish Road Accident Rates 2 months ago:
If a car is braking it rides differently from one that isn’t. A car is normally rather level and leans “forward” when braking.
Besides that, YOU SHOULDNT GET IN FRONT OF ANYTHING YOU ARENT SURE IS STOPPING. If it’s moving fast enough that you need this, you shouldn’t be trying to get in front anyways.

Yeah, I don’t need to make friends to find stl files. A database with a lookup function will do fine.
- Comment on Federated 3d printing design hub like Thingiverse? 2 months ago:
Yes, because everything needs to be a social web. Fuck off with that nonsense. Sometimes a database just needs to be a database. The last thing we need is more echo chambers in every damn hobby.
- Comment on Federated 3d printing design hub like Thingiverse? 2 months ago:
You realize a bunch of instances have blocked/defederated Lemmy.world. exactly the kind of fragmentation I’d like to avoid.
This is a hard pass.
- Comment on Federated 3d printing design hub like Thingiverse? 2 months ago:
Exactly this. I don’t want to have to dig through 100 communities all spread out to find things. Not everyone needs “my own” whatever. You can be centralized and public. Federation is just another buzzword like blockchain.
- Comment on WTF is a rural town in the USA? 2 months ago:
All these fancy answers and I’ll give you a real one: sidewalks and paved roads. Does it have fully paved roads and sidewalks? Urban. Does it have that and mostly houses? Suburban. Some/no sidewalks and the roads aren’t all paved or is done poorly? Small town/rural. It’s all about the concrete/asphalt to dirt/plants ratio.
- Comment on Stop Internet Searching and Start Asking on Fediverse? 3 months ago:
Agreed. About the only thing I would search Lemmy for is obnoxious Linux snobbery. That, they have on lock.
