I think there’s a difference between letting it do somethings and letting it finish something.
It shouldn’t be the one clicking the send button because everything needs to be verified, but it’s fine to have it surf the internet or turn a request into a set number of tasks with a to-do list.
Writing an email with it is a no-go for me though, I avoid it the moment it comes to actually communicating with someone. Using AI strikes me as patronizing.

I consider open source already one. Gpt 5 was supposed to be a big step forward but it got smoked in the space of a month. The only thing I’m worried about is the music models.
Meta basically stabbed all the big American companies in the back, and now China is walking towards what is left with a revolver. I feel like we got lucky tbh.
- Comment on When we eat the billionaires, we should spare Gabe Newell? No? 6 days ago:
It doesn’t matter how the monopoly forms, Gaben is still one of the rat fucks profiting from it. He wouldn’t have been able to spend a billion dollars on boats if he wasn’t.
Whatever arguments you think you have, ask yourself first if they apply to Musk or Bezos. They probably do.
- Comment on When we eat the billionaires, we should spare Gabe Newell? No? 6 days ago:
Every company in a soft monopoly charges the industry standard, that is how soft monopolies work.
They all stop charging what it’s worth and pick a number together that means maximum profits.
- Comment on Why a new Steam Machine when the first ones flopped? Because this time, Valve say, it'll actually have games 6 days ago:
If it gets a proper market share and can’t be ignored, developers will be more inclined to take care of it themselves. A lot of games come already working on it.
- Comment on When we eat the billionaires, we should spare Gabe Newell? No? 6 days ago:
And collusion with Nintendo, Sony and Microsoft.
He charges 30% like the rest of them, he isn’t trying to compete.
- Comment on When we eat the billionaires, we should spare Gabe Newell? No? 6 days ago:
Valve encourages and keeps the system broken just as much as Microsoft or Nintendo does. They all try really hard not to compete.
They do have high salaries, but it’s also a ridiculously small company for the money they make. Gaben is still making money hand over fist, and the employees making big money are all on the admin team.
Steam could charge a 5% fee and give the rest to developers. The services and salaries would still stay the same. It would give Gaben enough money to cover his billion dollar boats fleets maintenance cost, just not enough to buy himself a new yacht every two years.

He spent a billion dollars on boats.
- Comment on When we eat the billionaires, we should spare Gabe Newell? No? 1 week ago:
Gabe’s fleet of yatchs is worth about 1 billion (8 boats and a sub or two). The yearly maintenance cost is estimated to be between 100 to 150 million per year. He essentially taxes a whole industry and most gamers because the soft monopoly and collusion he has going on with Microsoft, Sony and Nintendo let’s him.
This is literally the definition of boot licking. Please try to think farther then the line his marketing team draws for you.

I like him enough as an actor to forgive the indiscretion if he had a change of heart. It seems there’s nothing past 2015, and I feel like he must have changed his opinion if he was silent about it during COVID.
Maybe it’s just wishful thinking, I haven’t looked past the wiki.
- Comment on Wendy’s to close hundreds of restaurants as struggling customers cut back on dining out 1 week ago:
Well they are mostly rewarded for threading the line. And if they go to much one way then everyone ends up poor, they shutter a few restaurants and get to invest in cheap properties for the next few years while waiting for tax payers to bail out the economy.

If it does the job better, who the fuck cares. No one actually cares about how you feel about the technology. Cry me a river.

He was bred for war, but maybe he just likes to play retro games.

- Comment on Is re-visiting a place of trauma a good idea? Have anyone done it? 2 weeks ago:
So take this with a huge grain of salt but maybe a half step would be having someone take videos of the location and then viewing those. It might help you get a feel for it.
I have know idea if this is a valid idea, mostly basing it off of vets wearing VR headsets a few years back to try and cure ptsd.
- Comment on Meta: Pirated Adult Film Downloads Were For “Personal Use,” Not AI Training 2 weeks ago:
≈ 22 per year per ip x 20 different ips x over 8 years.
There’s also like 70 000 people working for meta, so having 20 perverts that download a porn movie every 3 weeks kind of tracks
- Comment on Meta: Pirated Adult Film Downloads Were For “Personal Use,” Not AI Training 2 weeks ago:
Strike 3 Holdings and Counterlife Media, which are known for popular adult brands including Vixen, Tushy, Blacked, and Deeper, filed a copyright infringement complaint at a California federal court. The companies allege that Meta downloaded at least 2,396 of their films since 2018, allegedly to aid their AI video training.
“[T]he small number of downloads—roughly 22 per year on average across dozens of Meta IP addresses—is plainly indicative of private personal use, not a concerted effort to collect the massive datasets Plaintiffs allege are necessary for effective AI training,” Meta writes

- Comment on TikTok may become more right-wing as China signals approval for US sale 2 weeks ago:
It’s used to divide but I think it leans the opposite way in north America. The GOP wouldn’t have such a hate boner for it if it was pushing the same bullshit they are.
Hard to remember but I think a lot of pro Palestinian vids were on tiktok while the other social media sites were suppressing it when it all started. I only heard of this, I don’t have an account.
It’s leaning in Europe is well known though.
- Comment on Elon Musk: What was the mysterious bright light spotted in Irish skies? 2 weeks ago:
Ok so I did see his bio which explains it but data is curated before hand these days, usually with other llms. I’m afraid something that can be solved with a simple find and replace won’t do much.

- Comment on How do I finally get a long term career and become financially independent? 3 weeks ago:
You need to figure out what fields interest you and then get qualifications for it. The lack of response might be a CV issue, have someone you trust look over it and give you pointers. It’s okay to lie and embellish on a CV.

- Comment on Over 47% of Stop Killing Games Signatures Have Already Been Verified 3 weeks ago:
The difference is that everything you’ve mentioned already has hundreds of organizations, a lot governmental, trying to solve those problems.
Game companies screwing over consumers was mostly passing way under the radar.
