  I too think he went back to Stardew Valley because he’s either burnt out, or doesn’t know where to take, Haunted Chocolatier.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨ASD jab: Chinese scientists reach milestone in revolutionary gene therapy for autism⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  No, they mean that Autism shouldn’t be cured, which is a common Gen Z take because they see all nuerodivergence as positive and innately of value.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Leaker shares mounting Nintendo Switch Mini or Switch Pocket evidence, offers up release date and price predictions⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I still think it the Lite as too big. Maybe you haven’t held a Vita / PSP, or if you have, recently? It’s significantly bigger.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Leaker shares mounting Nintendo Switch Mini or Switch Pocket evidence, offers up release date and price predictions⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Exactly my thoughts. I keep my Vita in my purse as an every day carry, and I often think about the Switch being too large and heavy to be a proper portable game system.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Leaker shares mounting Nintendo Switch Mini or Switch Pocket evidence, offers up release date and price predictions⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s nuts, I’ve been blown away by the Switch library and probably own over 500 titles.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Leaker shares mounting Nintendo Switch Mini or Switch Pocket evidence, offers up release date and price predictions⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I honestly want a smaller Switch. I would 100% buy another Switch if I could easily stuff it in my purse like I do my Vita. I hate the trend of larger portables, they hurt my hands and make my arms tired. They’re heavier and bigger than I have any use for.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If you live in the EU - you may also be faced with this Meta prompt. Info in text.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I literally had a job that distributed our schedule via a Facebook group exclusively and required an account for requesting changes or interaction about the schedule.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨'Couldn't See Anymore:' Bored Ape Conference Attendees Wake Up With Searing Eye Pain, Vision Loss⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Not sure why you were voted down, because I feel the exact same way. No one should have to suffer vision loss from a public event, horrifying.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It's not just about facts: Democrats and Republicans have sharply different attitudes about removing misinformation from social media⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Companies probably shouldn’t be liable then for what individuals share / post then, instead the individuals should. Social media constantly controls their push / promotion of posts currently using algorithms to decide what should be shown / shared and when.

  I hate this so much. I want real, linear feeds from all my friends I’m following, not a personally curated style sanitized feed to consider my interests and sensibilities.

  This was incredible.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨This new data poisoning tool lets artists fight back against generative AI⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I used to be a musician, I also used to paint. I think my thought processes are no more complex than most computers, and I genuinely don’t believe human creativity is special even a little bit, like consciousness, it’s a subjective illusion.

  I do not believe in things like copyright, or intellectual property, or even ownership of these things, I think these things should be collectively owned by society.

  I don’t disagree with you from lack of experience, I disagree from fundamentally different ideological underpinnings.

  I believe there is nothing special about human perception and experience, and I can see the ways that technology maps near perfectly to the way we think. AI shouldn’t be limited, it should replace us.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨This new data poisoning tool lets artists fight back against generative AI⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  This is why I think people don’t know what they are talking about.

  You can look at a picture from an artist without it being considered theft, so are your memories and impressions theft? That’s what training data does, it teaches AI what something looks like, with many samples. It’s literally what your brain does, the way you see multiple dogs and know what a dog looks like is the same way that AI trains pattern recognition.

  It’s completely reasonable and desirable to have AI consume all available images, regardless of copyright the way your eyes and brain can do the same. Training data isn’t theft no more than going to a museum and looking at art is theft.

  This take that this is bad is completely unhinged and indicates people don’t understand AI.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨This new data poisoning tool lets artists fight back against generative AI⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  What a dumb solution to a problem that doesn’t need a solution. The problem isn’t AI, it’s the lack of understanding for the tech that has people thinking AI is theft.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Pfizer says it will price Covid treatment Paxlovid at nearly $1,400 for a five-day course, which researchers estimate only costs Pfizer $13 to produce. That's a 10,000%+ markup. Shameful.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Paxlovid kept me alive when I had COVID. This makes me really upset. People will actually die without this.

  Peertube is a federated YouTube clone, like Lemmy to Reddit, or Mastodon to Twitter.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Philosophy meme⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  The universe doesn’t exist in human terms though. Stars don’t care about genocide, or abortion. Black holes don’t care about gender or identity issues. I’m certain the universe does not exist on human terms, and human morality is only an idea that has meaning to other humans.

  I don’t believe there is a single valid, unassailable concept that can prop up the idea that objective morality is likely, or even possible.

  Would morality exist once the last human dies? Did morality exist before? It’s just a useless question.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Philosophy meme⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s literally exactly how all humans work. Our ideas is morality come from our peers, and culture. That’s all relative and very mutable.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Philosophy meme⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  While that works with ‘facts’, it doesn’t work for opinions. A sense of morality is exactly an opinion or set of opinions that define what is and isn’t right. It is exactly mired in perspective and again this is very self evident.

  Muslims say that music is Haram because it is said so in Hadith, does that make music objectively wrong? They believe when a religious authority states this is true, that the religious authority has made a canonical judgement ( fatwa ) that is basically binding.

  Am I a heathen for liking music then?

  I can’t believe people are so naive as to think objective standards for morality are even remotely possible.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Philosophy meme⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  People who down vote genuinely believe objective morality is possible, but it’s literally impossible and it’s incredibly obvious and self evident this is true.

  Awww, reading this makes me feel sad, but I also suspect this was a wrong number and they played this up.

  Couples with AI this really is an it begins situation.

  Straight up expect to see AI in law enforcement and observation. Drones everywhere? Sure, but have you considered insect sized drones? That’s where the fun begins.
