- Comment on Why does it seem like many Americans have an arrogant personality trait? 2 days ago:
Because everyone hates xenophobia until it makes them feel superior.
- Comment on France is about to pass the worst surveillance law in the EU. 3 days ago:
I don’t lock them to begin with. And I certainly wouldn’t purchase a tsa approved lock. Regardless, I was not subject to using a lock to avoid opening, that then had a backdoor. Which is why this is a bad comparison all around.
- Comment on France is about to pass the worst surveillance law in the EU. 3 days ago:
You don’t need a tsa approved lock to open an unlocked bag. Nor a bag that is locked in any other fashion. Which is why this is a contrived connection.

Red locks had nothing to do with that story. And they were caught and arrested. It is not related.

Seems like they made the better bet given the odds, but oh well indeed. Still pretty funny.
- Comment on France is about to pass the worst surveillance law in the EU. 3 days ago:
First off, fuck the NY post.
Secondly, no, it IS unrelated. An issue with the TSA is not an example of a backdoor. Both are bad things, but it ends there.
A law implementing a back door would be a far more ubiquitous concern than some one off sticky fingers in Florida.
Did the tsa use a backdoor to find out what people had in order to steal it? No. How tf is this dumb take supported.

Ain’t no dirt involved here. That’s a weird take, tbh. And telling. Naw, it’s just really really funny that you did the thing you accused others of so blatantly and immediately. That’s all.

Lol. Holly shit, talk about bouncing around being wrong about people. “Mr. Pancake man” is most definitely a woman. Like … nevermind.
- Comment on YSK about Jury Nullification, if you're an American and you don't, look it up. 4 days ago:
Yep.
You should be applying this to all juries you serve on. Accept those summonses. Get on those juries and use your brains.

Or it will be used to let fascists off, because their supporters will vote fucking not guilty and say that everyone else should too.

Win win.
- Comment on Bad UX is keeping the majority of people away from Lemmy 2 weeks ago:
All is not consolidated, though. “All” is your local feed plus what is subscribed to by other users on your instance. It isn’t everything by default, afaik.

Jfc, finally some sanity in this thread. Thank you. You’d think a bunch of supposed computer nerds would have done a fucking experiment before going off on some anecdotal bullshit.
- Comment on Is it worth it?? 3 months ago:
Working with pretrained models implemented in FPGAs for particle identification and tracking. It’s much faster and exactly as accurate. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I was just joking about how newyorkers are notoriously, flippantly, pRoFAnE. Which is just a dumb stereotype, and like most things about the US, it’s not monolithic. Including some infuriating lack of profanity … ya cunt‽

- Comment on OpenAI Execs Mass Quit as Company Removes Control From Non-Profit Board and Hands It to Sam Altman 5 months ago:
There’s some sampling bias at play because you don’t hear about the less flashy examples. I use machine learning for particle physics, but there’s no marketing nor outrage about it.

Almost as if it’s artificial.

Sure, but people seem to buy into that very buzz wordyness and ignore the usefulness of the technology as a whole because “ai bad.”
