I don't do much

I'm probably just gonna sit over here and lurk awhile... Mostly just reblogging GO stuff but I throw in the occasional random thing

[spookydazechaos]

OK I see a couple of new followers and I cannot tell if you're bots or not because you've got not-porny pictures for your profiles but that is LITERALLY ALL YOU HAVE so I'm gonna give you a day or two to post or reblog something to prove you're not a spambot. If at the end of this period you still have a blank profile I'm gonna block you. Sorry if you were a real person.

Ok, how about a counterfactual:

If you'd known in advance exactly what GO3 would be like, would you still have wanted it to be made?

Yes - I liked it

Yes - even though I didn't like it

NO

No - and delete F15 too please

No - and I also wish S2 had not been made

Don't care/haven't seen

Voting ended on6h

Please reblog if you think this could be interesting?

When fanfiction could make a better love confession with much simpler words than whatever the fuck GO3 did with their "Why give me Crowley" BS

Reading fanfics is making me pissed AF at what the fuck GO3 did. We have good fucking writers doing shit like this for free and professionals are butchering wonderful created stories like there's no tomorrow.

My supervisor (experimentally, and while warning me ahead of time so i could be prepared to fix it) tried to use CoPilot in PowerPoint to replace our images with CoPilot graphs for better visuals and I am fascinated.

It increased our error rate while reducing the overall ticket count by two. And redistributed numbers.

It smoothed out our data trend, erasing the actually important-to-report information (that big dip and increase is important):

It erased my security and networking practices and came up with resubmitted tickets out of nowhere and shows an overall downward trend in ticket counts when only one of the five categories is actually trending down.

On another slide it also changed the status of a device from "attention needed" to "healthy," and on yet another slide it removed the captions that I'd grouped with a set of images.

This is your reminder that the robots are stupid and if you work with them you need to check their work.

Some of the stuff it did really well, and genuinely looks better and the numbers were copied correctly. But some of it is resubmitted tickets.

I maintain that there are uses for AI that are fine and genuinely labor saving, but also it is hot garbage and I would largely prefer not to interact with it.

[ms-demeanor]

Look, I want everyone reading this to understand that the power and water use estimates associated with AI are frequently blown drastically out of proportion, and that it is perfectly fine to do an occasional AI query.

I don't say this because I think that YOU should be using AI for stuff (and if you hate AI, I get it, I don't want to use it either) I say this because one of the absolute best ways I've found to get people to step back from believing everything the AI tells them is to ask the AI a question about something the person you're speaking to is an expert on, or ask it something that YOU are an expert on and point out where the AI's answer is wrong.

I screencapped these images because I want to show them at work to demonstrate to a couple of my coworkers that NO you cannot have the AI compile the report for you without double-checking it. It can't even accurately duplicate a graph it's looking right at. You have to check on the robots, they aren't even actually stupid, they're just autocompleting what they thought you want, and sometimes autocomplete ducks everything up.

will die on the hill of “dead dove: do not eat” DOES NOT MEAN “there are various unspecified things in here that might disturb you, so be warned”

it means “i know the contents of this bag (a dead dove) may be upsetting, so i have labeled the outside very clearly with what is inside (a dead dove), and if you look inside, you should not be surprised to find a dead dove, because that’s what the label very explicitly says is inside the bag”

i realize this is a losing battle because enough people have made it mean the other thing as to make the tag totally useless, but seeing people argue over what it should mean gives me a headache because it literally could not be clearer

MAGA boomers SHOCKED by 20y/o commie speaking fluent hog

[red-garden]

Hog 201 for anyone interested in trying this:

Bodily autonomy (like abortion, anti draft, etc) -> “The government shouldn’t be able to force anything on my body I don’t want.”

Anti surveillance -> “I don’t trust big government/big tech (big brother if you’re feeling frisky) with the ability to spy on me and my family.”

Immigration -> “Next to all of us immigrated at some point, I don’t see why the elites get to decide who’s allowed to be where. What’s to stop them coming for me?”

Climate Change -> “Big oil shouldn’t get to determine whether or not I get to go places. I don’t want to be dependent on some big business to survive.”

State Violence -> “I don’t want the goddamn secret police breathing down my neck! I trust my community a whole hell of a lot more to help me than I do the state!”

The vast majority of conservatives think of themselves as underdogs being repressed by the government/the elite, and they value personal freedom (specifically their personal freedom, they don’t care about other people). The will almost always agree with leftist points if you can find a way to blame the problem on their vague enemies (useful, since rich people are the root of most problems), and tie it back to their ability to say fuck everyone else. NEVER appeal to science, theory, logic, or human goodness. Make it seem as if you are a paranoid lunatic who trusts no one. They love it.

Got a lot of traction with my Dad like this: he's not even MAGA he just doesn't Get It(tm) ... but he understood me perfectly when I said "Well I don't want a politician to decide what my gender is it's none of their business".

the "rip ___ you would have loved ___" meme is inherently more fun with ancient characters. rip clytemnestra you would have loved morse code. rip theseus you would have loved the airtag. rip callisto you would have loved wearing shorts.

rip Icarus you would have loved parachutes

[foldingfittedsheets]

Rip Odysseus you would have loved GPS

Your partner came back from the dead after being missing for decades. Every one of their friends who they went with ended up dying a horrible death.

Now, somehow, their entire mental health is based on the continued life and happiness of this fairground goldfish that they picked up.

Neither of you know the first thing about how to care for even a healthy fish. This fish has been poorly cared for, has multiple diseases and the person who handed it over explicitly didn't expect it to live nearly as long as it already has.

You're frantically googling how to set up a fish tank, where to buy fish food, can you even take a fish to the vet? Your partner wants you to know that they're happy they made it home and survived their horrific ordeal, but also that if anything happens to the fish then they're going to kill everyone on this planet and then themself.

You're honestly wondering if you're even helping the fish, or just prolonging its suffering, but your partner will only accept medical help for their many injuries or engage in basic self-care once they're confident that the fish is being looked after.

So you get a tank. You set up a filter and all that stuff. You learn way more than you ever wanted to know about water temperature and ph and nitrate levels. The fish is safe. You start to develop some affection for the little guy. Your partner begins to recover. The fish begins to recover.

Which is when you learn that in its 'healthy' state, the fish regularly refuses to sleep when tired, keeps begging for food that is obviously unhealthy for it (and struggling to eat the food that you do provide because “it tastes gross”), and continually tries to persuade your partner to take it out of its nice safe tank so it can go explore the wonderful world of Outside, where the slightest mishap will kill it instantly.

Your name is Adrian, and you kind of wants to strangle this fucking fish, statement.
