Freedom is the right to tell people what they do not want to hear.

  • What will all the computing infrastructure be used for when companies admit commercial AI isn't cost-effective?

    Jump

  • Would you care to provide any evidence for your speculation that people are willing to pay enough for AI to sustain its costs?

    ChatGPT alone has 800 million weekly users and their total revenue in 2025 was 13 billion with 70% coming from normal users. That's drop in the bucket though considering they've commited to investing a trillion dollars into new computing capacity over the next 10 years.

  • "Nope" implies you already have a source proving me wrong.

  • ChatGPT alone has 800 million weekly users of which the vast majority are normal people - not companies. The demand is there despite it not being able to increase company profit margins the way people expected. I don't see this computing infrastructure needing to run idle anytime soon.

  • What are the most sentimental items to you and why?

  • My Leatherman Wave and my olive green Shemagh scarf are both close to 20 years old now so would be quite a bummer to lose either one of them. The Leatherman already almost got stolen once.

  • Australia begins enforcing world-first teen social media ban

    Jump

  • Bans only work in paper. In practice they're just making it slightly harder. If there's an obstacle there's also way around it.

  • What Youtube channel has maintained high quality standards over the years?

    Jump

  • Andrew Camarata

    I bet this guy gets sponsorship offer after another and he refuses all of them. He has multiple videos in progress all the time. Some take years to finish. He might do a job and then at the end of the video he revisits the site half year later or for example waits for a rainy day to shoot video of how the new drainage ditch works. I challenge anyone to find a more authetic YouTuber.

  • Do you feel content warnings are beneficial?

    Jump

  • I don't think they serve any other purpose than to signal that the person wishes to come across as considerate.

    If it's gore, porn or such then yeah but if we're speaking of just text then no.

  • Very close to my current life but without financial stress and with a partner who shares even some of my interests and doesn't want sex.

  • Well Wranglerstar is pretty good example. Used to be about homesteading and tools, then turned into politics, grifting and Jesus talk. There's even a subreddit dedicated for hating him for it.

    Van Neistat (Casey's brother) is another one for me. It's actually one of those channels that went from me utterly loving it to entirely stopping watching it the quickest. I can't really put my finger on why but I think I just started to get the sense that this is a job for him, not a passion.

  • Evidence That Humans Now Speak in a Chatbot-Influenced Dialect Is Getting Stronger

    Jump

  • It doesn't matter that you personally don't use it. Other people do and you can't escape the influence they have on you no more than they can that of an LLM.

    I also find it odd to have such a strong opinion about something you have zero first-hand experience of.

    Jump

  • ChatGPT alone has over 800 million weekly users yet you doubt this because you personally don't use one?

  • Removed Locked

    TIL that Anthony Kiedis of The Red Hot Chili Peppers is a self-confessed child molester, according to his autobiography 'Scar Tissue'

  • Every woman remembers the day they turned 18 and suddenly so many adult men started showing interest.

  • What makes you happy?

    Jump

  • I genuinely don't know. I only know what makes me momentarily forget about the lack of happines but I don't think that's the same thing.

  • Waymo Just Reprogrammed Its Robotaxis to Drive Less Safely

  • Risking your life to inconvenience other people is a weird form of fun I must say.

  • Which one of your views gets you labeled as "the other"?

    Jump

  • In this particular case I'm okay with it but I don't see it as stealing. Human artists are influenced by the art of other artists the same way. It's only stealing if you're selling copies of the original piece as your own. I wouldn't have any problem with someone copying my entire photography portfolio to train an AI to generate pictures with my style because it takes nothing away from me. Just sell them as your own then instead of claiming they were taken by me.

  • I've yet to detect even a hint of right-wing / nazi bias on Grok. I get that it's a popular narrative but it simply just doesn't hold true according to my experience. It's not that much different from ChatGPT really - just slightly less restricted.

  • I hope you didn't bet much. Just goes to show how one shouldn't make assumptions based on tiny bits of unrelated information.

  • Where do you draw the line on what counts as property? Surely people can have some things that are theirs?
