  • Of course. It's very likely that things would be way worse, but it is not a certainty. The quoted statement is speculation.

  • FYI Shooting Trump will solve nothing, and only just make things WAY worse.

    That's speculation.

  • That's the campaign promise the Democrats are going to give us in 2028. Not "dismantle the camps, and enact universal healthcare" but "reduce the number of people sent to the ovens by 5% per year".

    And then

    when Trump gets a third term instead of a prison sentence.

  • Tastes like almonds.

  • Don't worry, it will trickle down.

  • Most women married to Rs are themselves going to be Rs. It's just as accurate to say that most husbands are voting according to the wife's wishes.

  • So are unicorns.

  • They are locking down "certified" phones. You don't have to have a "certified" phone, but if it is not certified, a lot of sensitive apps (Google wallet, third-party banking apps, for example) won't work.

    So all the major manufacturers are going to push certified phones, which are going to make it difficult to use non-certified apps.

  • I suggest building a sturdy wooden guillotine instead.

  • Go ahead and bring it in. Quickly, please. Go ahead and do it right before the midterms and the Luigi trial.

    Go ahead, insurance industry: cut your own fucking throats with this AI bullshit.

  • Define "grasp ideas".

    They are beginning to be able to correlate images, sounds, text (in multiple languages). If we fitted them with other sensors (chemical receptors, accelerometers, etc) and feed them sufficient training data, they would be able to correlate those as well. I would call this correlative ability the "grasping of ideas".

    Where they fail is abstraction. But, this is a failing of human intelligence as well. Some fully productive humans never develop more than a rudimentary capacity for abstraction, arguably less than LLMs have demonstrated.

    Don't get me wrong: They're at toddler-levels of actual intelligence and only simulate greater capacity by regurgitating what they've learned people like to hear. But, a hell of a lot of people are guilty of the same damn thing.

  • Human intelligence is a spectrum. I would say that current LLMs are at about the 20th percentile on that spectrum.

    That says more about my opinions on human intelligence than LLM...

  • If everyone on this list had their net wealth capped at $100 million, their quality of life would be totally unaffected, but poverty wouldn't exist, and the retirement age would be 45.

  • They're gonna run a Schumer/Clinton ticket in 2028.

  • There's usually a lot of private data in the home folder. I feel compromise or loss of my phone is a greater risk than loss of my home folder. I'd use an SD card before I'd use a phone.

  • Because you, and people like you, won't show up to the polls if this is the focus of the next election. That's what you're trying not to say. You're reminding us that the MAGAts are going to show up, but that you don't find this issue compelling enough to actually turn out on election day, and you fear that too many others feel as you do.

    I'd like to see trans protections and support included in a Universal Healthcare bill that puts the entire medical insurance industry out of business. The Universal Healthcare aspect is why I'm going to the polls, and it would be nice if there were some guarantees in that to ensure that trans care is included in "Universal".

    Universal Healthcare is what I will be looking for when I go to the polls this fall. While I'm there, I'll support every trans issue I can find. Fortunately, there isnt much anti-trans horseshit from the people who support Universal Healthcare, nor anti-healthcare horseshit from the trans community. Support for either is support for both.

  • It depends on how you want to do it; how your reverse proxy server is setup. I use Pangolin running on a VPS as my proxy server. It uses a tunnel ("Newt") between web servers running on my home network and the VPS, so I don't need any open/forwarded ports on my home router.

  • I'll need to know a little more about your setup. Sending DM...
