THISSSSSSS!!!!!!! curate your own internet experience. block them because they’re allergic to peanut butter, block them because they have what you don’t, block them because they dislike your favorite food, block them because you don’t like their layout, block them because you can.

blocking is NOT a personal attack against someone. it’s you curating your own internet experience and catering for your comfort, and you have every right to do that.

you, yes, you!!! you CANNOT tell other people to censor themselves for your own comfort and personal likings. you CANNOT tell them what they can or can’t post. you CANNOT tell them what they can or can’t write. you CANNOT tell them what they can or can’t draw. BUT you CAN block them for whatever reason.

that block button is offered to you for free. use. it.

Sorry, reposting because I forgot the texture layer >< When Cursed AU was first being developed, @seraphixuss gave me this agonizing idea: What if Malthael and Rathma had met before D3 happened, and speaking with someone as obsessed with research and knowledge as himself had almost -delayed- his fall. That thought's stayed with me for a long time, so I decided to comic it out to the lyrics of a pop song from the 1960s. "Here Comes That Rainy Day Feeling Again" by The Fortunes. This hurt so good to draw.

for the record im not technially 100% anti-AI, in the sense that its a broad category of tech being lumped under one umbrella term so it feels over-zealous to say i hate all of it all the time forever. but i also think trying to discuss what it actually IS good for is difficult right now when i cant take one step without something trying to convince me to use chatgpt to summarize my life and speed up my hobbies and turn my friends into chatbots and optimize my life into oblivion. i am certain there is nuance to the topic but can we stop cramming the square peg into the round hole before you start trying to sell me on the legitimate benefits of the square peg. please.

Neural Nets have existed for decades and are genuinely useful. It's a form of AI that recognizes patterns, and can do stuff like identify cancer cells, tell whether an egg is fertilized or not, detect fraud, and optimize routes.

Those are Expert Systems, tuned to do exactly one thing. If you (say) ask a medical expert system a question about financial law, it's useless. The autopilot that flies a 787 has no idea how to drive a truck on the freeway. A Coulter Counter is excellent at identifying lymphocytes in a blood sample but can't predict the next card in a blackjack game.

And so on.

The problem with so-called generalized AI (AGI) is that we don't have that yet. It doesn't exist. It MIGHT some day, but AGI has been "10 years away" since the 1980s. The goals keep moving as we learn more about how people and machines process data.

But the current crop of AI techbros have been selling generative Large Language Model AI (LLM) as AGI because generative systems do a good job of faking it. There's no actual thought going on, merely the illusion of thought via predicting the next word in a sentence accurately.

If you let a human toddler listen to 800 hours of YouTube car influencer videos, that toddler might end up sounding like a car influencer. They'd parrot horsepower numbers and 0 to 60 times, mention EV range and MSRP numbers.

But they wouldn't understand any of it.

That's ChatGPT.

And yeah, it's worse than useless because it doesn't even know when it's lying or hallucinating. It just babbles convincingly until you stop it.

But for techbros to make money selling that as "AI"? It's the perfect scam, especially if you don't understand how it works.

I fucking hate it.

if you’re offline or away and i message you something (like a link to a meme or a picture or w/e) honestly just assume that i’m just leaving it there for when you get back and not expecting you to answer straight away. i don’t need you to respond with “hey, sorry, i wasn’t at the computer!” or anything. i was leaving u a gift for later.

[slightmayhem]

This also applies if you’re online and just don’t want to or have the energy to deal with humans in the moment. Just because we have the ability to reply in real time does not mean we have the obligation.

[melon-official]

im like a cat i drag the posts to ur doorstep and if ur not there it’s ok, the post will be on ur porch for later

[agam-shel-barvadim]

seriously tho, that’s how the internet was intended to be, just in general. you reply to things when you get to it. idk how the HELL that ended up turning into a culture of constant availability, but that’s not how it was meant to work. constant availability is unhealthy.

[eemamminy-art]

I always say my DMs are a bulletin board, not a phone call. We come back to the conversation whenever, it doesn’t have to stop and start only when we’re both there. Something really joyous about walking up to a huge message from your pal replying to the huge message you sent them before sleep!

[captainclickycat]

My rule of thumb is always “if it’s not time-sensitive it’s not time-sensitive”.

A message saying “hi how’s it going” or “want to get coffee sometime” or just generally chatting doesn’t come with a deadline attached. I never expect someone to get back to me within a given time frame unless that’s specified in the message (like, I’m inviting someone to a party and I need to know if they’re coming by a certain date so I know how many people to plan for, or I’m visiting the town they live in on a certain week and I want to know whether they’d like to hang out.)

Furthermore I’d rather hear back from someone a year after I sent the original message than not hear back from them at all because they were embarrassed about replying “late”. Far as I’m concerned if the message is just conversational and isn’t literally time-sensitive in any way, there’s no such thing as late.
