  • Seems pretty enforcable to me. Hell, they were even able to compel the U.S. Olympic committee to pay out hundreds of millions when their lead team doctor sexually harassed so many athletes that he'll be in prison for the rest of his life.

  • What fact about yourself are you least willing to share with strangers?

    If there is no way to tell if that is a reasonable question for me to ask, then by what metric do you decide whether or not to answer it? Does that metric act as a stand-in for "reasonableness" to you, and if so then how do you square it with your earlier insistence that drawing such a line is impossible? If not, why?

  • And there's another one for my block list.

  • I got an automated phonecall informing me that someone is trying to log in to my TD bank account

    Jump

  • I love these scams, I just wait 'til they connect a human to the line and ask them what "my" name is. XD

  • I love these new scams, I'll wait until they connect me to a human and then ask them what my name is. Sometimes they get confused and I have to explain that, if they called me about an issue on "my" account, then they should know "my" name, right? Never fails to get a chuckle before they hang up. XD

  • I did, but only until you gave up and started phoning it in.

  • In a zombie apocalypse where do you hold up assuming you can secure any location you chose?

    Jump

  • The hill country, of course. Long sightlines, rough terrain, low population, high ratio of guns to people.

  • And yet, you just posted one.

  • Nah, I only make out with people that put in the effort to argue in good faith, or at least make amusing claims and then try to articulate an absurd yet coherent logic to justify them (E.g., Italy isn't real; it was made up by two Giuseppes who got the idea in prison, which is both technically accurate and a wildly reductive perspective on the Italian Wars of Unification.)

  • Not looking for how to meth. But is not a moonshiners still about as dangerous as a meth house exploding? What the difference?

    Jump

  • Short version, distillation isn't a chemical process but a simple physical state change from liquid to gas and back. Alcohol vapors can be explosive when mixed with Oxygen in an appropriate ratio, but there generally is no potential source of ignition between the boiling chamber and the cooling chamber and the expanding vapors push the oxygen out of the system early on in a production cycle.

    Producing meth, however, is a multi-step process requiring both chemical and physical state changes with a panoply of reagents and waste products which are corrosive, toxic, flammable, explosive, or even potentially radioactive. Some of those waste products are gasses that react explosively with air, or volatile organic compounds which have to be vented from the production equipment and subsequently settle and condense into a residue that contaminates all surfaces in or near the meth lab. That residue can include substances which ignite spontaneously on contact with water, further increasing the risk of fire or explosion and turning any firefighting operations into a hazmat operation.

  • If I'm not getting it immediately then you're communicating your point ineffectively.

    What, precisely, do you mean when you assert that the last three to six generations of work on "AI" don't count?

  • Because I'm the kind of fucked up weirdo that enjoys arguing with people on the internet. What's your excuse?

  • Why did you waste time posting this when you could have just not?

    Jump

  • No, I'm afraid I don't.

    The beginning of the development of "AI" is temporal, not spatial, unless you are referring to the path of development which, for no obvious reason, you refuse to trace backwards as well as forwards.

  • Could you try rephrasing that in a way that makes sense?

  • This isn't the "very beginning", that was either 70 or 120 years ago, depending on whether you're counting from the formalization of "AI" as an academic discipline with the advent of the Markov Decision Process or the earlier foundational work on Markov Chains.

    Chatbots are old-hat, I was playing around with Eliza back in the 90's. Hell, even Large Language Models aren't new, the transformer architecture they're based on is almost 10 years old and itself merely a minor evolution of earlier statistical and recurrent neural network language processing models. By the time big tech started ramping up the "AI" bubble in 2024, I had already been bored with LLMs for two years.

    There's no "early adaptation" here, just a rushed and wildly excessive implementation of a very interesting but fundamentally untrustworthy tech with no practical value proposition for the people it is nevertheless being sold to.
