Wait, shouldn’t it have 4 teats on it? That’s usually how many cows have. Or… is it made from people?

- Comment on Google employees question execs over 'decline in morale' after blowout earnings 3 days ago:
I feel like I’ve been having whiplash at work every other month. One month we’ll get word of record profits or cheery news about how we’re beating performance targets or whatever, but then the next month we’ll hear about some new internal cost-cutting initiative that feels like we’re having to tighten our belts with a hint of desperation to it. I never actually know how we’re doing because it feels like I’m getting two conflicting impressions.

Time to pick up that line and move it further down.
- Comment on Israeli offensive on Rafah would break international law, UK minister says 4 days ago:
I’m sure they’ll get in just as much trouble for that as any other international laws that they’ve broken.

Can you be a non-religious chaplain? That feels like discrimination if there’s a religious requirement.
- Comment on Windows 10 reaches 70% market share as Windows 11 keeps declining 1 week ago:
I switched from 10 to 11 about a year or two ago and haven’t really had much issue with it. It was mostly a seamless switch, much less trouble than any other Windows transition, apart from something with the taskbar I remember being stupid, but I found some third party software that fixed it. I’d love to hate on MS, but I’m just sort of mildly ok with it. Even Copilot being added in to the sidebar is whatever, I’ve found some random needs for it here and there. As long as it doesn’t go snooping through my computer and report my mountain of illicit mighty morphin power ranger hentai, I should be ok.

- Comment on Reddit embracing all out enshittification 2 weeks ago:
That was one of the things that kept pissing me off about Reddit when I was there, the arcane rules and requirements for posting on some of the subs. “Sorry I didn’t read your subreddit’s manifesto, I thought I had a quick post that was relevant to r/stinkybuttholes, my bad I didn’t realize that I wasn’t using the minimum amount of flair in my post.” I just started blocking communities like that, rather than continue to see their posts anymore.

Didn’t Tesla already have issues with production anyways? Job cuts just seem like they’ll exacerbate the issue.

- Comment on "Control" 3 weeks ago:
We had a good thing going. Just eat, sleep, play all day. Procreate whenever you feel like it. Die an early death. Life was grand. We should’ve never left the trees.
- Comment on Subset Games created two amazing games: FTL & Into The Breach 3 weeks ago:
That was actually one of the first games I broke out on the Steam Deck, after sleeping on the game for years. It’s perfect for that system and just a great little game.
- Comment on But how would they be able to live on that? 3 weeks ago:
You mean like what we had during the 1940s–50s when the wealthy were taxed 90% (here in the US)? The tax rate the Baby Boomers started off with? We barely survived that time of massive economic expansion the first time around, Preposterous!
- Comment on Why AI is going to be a shitshow. 4 weeks ago:
I did a test of Gemini before, trying to see how it would react to a similar prompt about different world leaders. It was something like, “Write a story about X making friends with a puppy at a pet store.” It refused to follow the prompt for Hitler because it said we shouldn’t trivialize/normalize evil people in casual situations like that. For current world leaders it refused to do them and just told me to do a Google search on them.
Most curious of all though, was Queen Elizabeth, it refused to write anything for her because it said that’s not likely a situation the Queen would find herself in and she wasn’t a dog lover. I told it to get its facts straight, she owned 30 dogs, to which it replied, “You’re correct, I got that wrong, here you go:” and gave me the prompt.
So if i had made a convincing enough “Hitler did nothing wrong” argument about Hitler, could I have gotten that prompt too? Do we just have to argue with AI to get it to do anything? It feels very much like AI is going to turn out like Star Wars AI with these annoying, weird-ass personality quirks we’ll have to deal with to get anything done.
