Stop trying to make Bean happen

saltesc , to noncredibledefense in Mad Max has arrived

I’m into cars. They all have personalities and behaviours. I often see cars and think, “When it rolled out of the factory on its first day, did it ever imagine that one day it would be like this?”


“What am I going to be when I grow up?”

“You’re going to ferry an old business man off his estate twice a month, then be sold to an Uber Black driver that won’t look after you so you’ll blow blue smoke and eventually be sold to a scrap yard for parts.”

“Oh… 😔”


“And what about me? What will I be?”

“You’re going to have three 122mm rocket launchers strapped to you and you’ll help liberate a nation.”

“…😲”

Or that 1 truck:

“You’ll be bought by a texan plumber to use as a business vehicle, only to be later sold and somehow end up in the middle east helping isis with Mark’s Plumbing still written on the side and a heavy machine gun mounted to the rear”

Or that apecar from a couple of days ago:

“You’ll be bought from a farmer trying to make a living, then you’ll be sold and somhow end up carrying rocket tubes on your poor 50cc engine”

The logo on the front is from the NEB, Niederbarnimer Eisenbahn AG, which runs in German province’s of Berlin and Brandenburg. No way in hell the Muskrat MAGAT is going to build trains.

I hate that it’s bean on toast

Is it just me, or does she look GINORMOUS compared to that child? He looks at least 3, but is the relative size of my 5 month old?

He asked for kidney beans on toast not kidney on toast!

derf82 , to technology in The Irony of 'You Wouldn't Download a Car' Making a Comeback in AI Debates

This process is akin to how humans learn by reading widely and absorbing styles and techniques, rather than memorizing and reproducing exact passages. The AI discards the original text, keeping only abstract representations in “vector space”.

Citation needed. I’m pretty sure LLMs have exactly reproduced copyrighted passages. And considering it can created detailed summaries of copyrighted texts, it obviously has to save more than “abstract representations.”

It puts the dopamine in the feed or else it feels the crushing weight of helplessness again!

Put the memes in the fucking basket!

Toes , (edited ) to lemmyshitpost in Is "disk" just a different spelling of "disc" or are they actually different words?

I’ve been known to use them interchangeably.

It’s British English (disc) vs American English (disk).

Edit: I present the Sony Portable Hard Disc Drive

bobslaede ,

It’s from diskette. Not about what country the spelling is from.

Toes ,

Prepare to have your mind blown.

Portable Hard Disc Drive pro.sony/en_GB/products/…/psz-hb-b-series

I don’t doubt the diskette comment since it’s an American invention. But sometimes this nuance shows up.

dwindling7373 ,

I can confirm he does that. He’s also been known for his weird obsession for ketchup.

plasticmonkey , to lemmyshitpost in Actual fucking cover of this book

“actual cover of this book” would have sufficed just fine.

loganb , to lemmyshitpost in Is "disk" just a different spelling of "disc" or are they actually different words?

I’ve always known disc to refer specifically to optical media.

Man, if I had any illusions about Lemmy being filled with literal children, this thread would clear them right up. Sexual objectification is gross and it does have consequences, y’all.

auzy , to technology in The Irony of 'You Wouldn't Download a Car' Making a Comeback in AI Debates

As others have said, it isn’t inspired always, sometimes it literally just copies stuff.

This feels like it was written by someone who invested their money in AI companies because they’re worried about their stocks

Lol

ShepherdPie ,

I think you may have a much more generous understanding of the current capabilities of AI than what it’s actually capable of. It isn’t Data from Star Trek.

auzy ,

Pretty much. It’s just weird this whole thread Feels like it was written by a marketing person.

Developers used to get hounded for blockchain by sales people.

Now the same people have moved to AI. Companies love it mainly because they can steal work, summarise it a bit, and profit. Some things were literally tracked down to specific web pages as the source

weeeeum ,

Sometimes I’ve noticed Google’s AI overview is a nearly word for word copy of the highest reddit result, or any result.

I haven’t heard USB drives or SSD’s be referred to as disks.

ArbiterXero ,

You need to spend more time with hardcore tech nerds 😝

You’re right, mostly people don’t call them that, but they do qualify and all the low level systems call them disks

SnotFlickerman ,
@SnotFlickerman@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

I remember when SSDs were still new, trying to install one on an older system and in the process the system needing to know the “number of sectors on the disk” which… SSDs don’t have sectors. It was a confusing thing to get through at the time, but I recall figuring it out.

deranger ,

And you had to get the partition aligned (?) when you formatted it. I had a 128GB OCZ Agility I paid like $380 for. It was amazing loading in way before everyone in games, I remember always being first in my WoW clan raids. Left 4 Dead 2 also ripped on that SSD. It died within a year and the RMA replacement died within year as well. RIP

But they’re still referred to as “drives” when arguably they aren’t that anymore, either. It’s really tough to ditch a moniker sometimes.

Denjin ,

It’s from diskette which is a portmanteau of disk and cassette which is from the early days or portable storage where cassettes were used to house disks to keep them safe from damage. For example floppy disk.

Because they form a similar job, portable storage, modern day usb pen drives and ssds are often referred to as disks.

Rentlar , to lemmyshitpost in It really do be like that sometimes

Why Lemmy/The Fediverse is so good: you can watch the world fall part from dozens and dozens of apps!
