Nowhere close. The massive companies with massive models are losing steam due to the cost needed to run them, but the freedom in the open source world is growing in leaps and bounds based on models on can run on consumer gpus

Can we stop saying think tank, as though these dummies actually think…?

You have to admit it’s a bit catchier than “Room of Blowhards Making Shit Up for Useful Idiots”

Maybe daft raft would roll off the tongue more easily

ikapoz ,

A “Cluster of Fucks”, maybe?

treefrog ,

Well they do think a lot about how to destroy democracy and cement the power of oligarchs.

They don’t use well reasoned arguments to justify what they’re doing but don’t assume they’re dummies.

Heritage helped climate change denial a lot iirc.

The presence of some intelligence is not sufficiently persuasive for changing terminology when the point is to insult them. Duhhhh.

because I saw yet another thread about how trump is being punished, when nothing has happened to him for the past 4 years. Double impeachment? Big whoop. wake me up when he gets brought down a peg.

Looks like a lot of people in this comments want their nickels back.

justdoit , in Insight: Conservative think tank emerges as force behind DeSantis campaign

We should really have another name other than “think tank” because I’m not convinced there’s a lot of thinking going on here.

Suggestions?

Changetheview ,

Propaganda generator

RobertOwnageJunior ,

Dummy Trabant.

treefrog ,

Don’t discount them as dumb.

They spend a lot of time and money spreading propaganda. Yes, the arguments they use in their propaganda don’t stand up to reason. But that’s not the target. The target is emotions.

They don’t need reasonable arguments if they can get their base worked up.

But yeah, propaganda generator would be more accurate. But again, they know what they’ve doing and it’s a mistake to discount our enemies as dumb. Even if we can see how irrational and emotionally charged their arguments are, their base can’t.

So the “let’s give our people nothing and expect them to land on the moon” attitude doesn’t work after all, how surprising!

Aviandelight , in Affidavits reveal what evidence police used to raid Kansas newspaper
@Aviandelight@mander.xyz avatar

Small town pissing contest becomes nationwide concern because once again police show everyone that they believe they are the law. The irony in this is the paper never even had to publish the story to get it out. The cops did that with their actions.

It's really amazing. Literally everyone in the US would have continued to not know or care about these people until this blew up - and it's all their own doing! It's like the Streisand Effect, but without the subjects already being in any way already known or noteworthy.

Trump knows Tucker will give him easier questions most likely.

I'd bet big money that Tucker will give him only the questions Trump has written for him to ask, AND that the wording and other details will make it very clear this is so. I'm looking forward to being amused by the clips from it that will show up the next day.

Meowoem ,

Q: Mr Trump you were the best president everyone says it, the other day someone came to me and said that Mr Trump was the best president, perfect President, just like his phonecalls were perfect - they tried to say it wasn’t a perfect phone call, crooked Hillary and sleepy Joe said it wasn’t perfect but it was a perfect phonecall, was it a perfect phone call? Everyone says it was perfect except sleepy Joe’s son Hunter’s laptop…

A: the election was stolen by very bad men, very bad, not as bad as hunter bidden and crooked Hillary but very bad…

I bet he can’t even answer his own questions

KarmaPolice ,

You’re missing the party where the man that approached Tucker had tears in his eyes.

spamfajitas , in Russia's first lunar mission in 47 years smashes into the moon in failure

The impact site should be given a suitable name to remember this event. Fascist’s Folly? Dictator’s Demise?

'putin's promise'. his name deserves to be aligned with a crater of failure comprised of the literal remains of the soviet union's space program.

Nacktmull , in Shop owner shot, killed over rainbow flag outside clothing store near Lake Arrowhead

Maybe it wasn’t a particularly good idea to make firearms so easily available to everyone and especially to (neo)Nazis?

telllos ,

The need for the 2nd amendment is fundamental if you want the people, able to form a tyranny… oh wait…

GladiusB ,
@GladiusB@lemmy.world avatar

The problem is they don’t see the hypocrisy. They think tyranny only applies to the government.

aidan ,

Generally yeah most tyranny definitions refer to government. It’s hard to exert tyrannical rule without being a de facto government.

Isthisreddit ,

Turns out they have always been pro tyranny as long it’s their guy hurting the “correct” people…

Nacktmull ,

You couldn’t be more wrong Telllos. If I didn’t have this gun, the King of England could just walk in here any time he wants and start shoving you around. Do you want that? (Pokes Telllos) Huh? (Shoves Telllos) Do ya!?

ph00p ,

You can just print that shit now.

Imagine if these crazy fucks didn’t already have guns and they just discovered printable ones, I think that would have been a worse outcome.

Margrave ,

Please elaborate as to how that would be worse. At least half these nutters wouldn’t be able to figure out how to use a printer, let alone a 3d printer.

Intralexical ,

This thread has, predictably, devolved into a hugely disrespectful exchange given the linked post.

But as an aside, I shudder to think of trying to design an additively manufactured part that would reliably contain a propellant blast using anything less than an industrial $100k-$1m DMLS or at least really really good SLS machine. If the goal is to harm somebody using a 3D printer, you’d probably be better off bashing them over the head with it.

aidan ,

Full plastic guns generally don’t last very long- but they have been proven to somewhat work since 2013. Now there are more stable designs that use off-the-shelf plumbing parts with plastic components. There are also designs that can be CNC’d with a cheap machine

NikkiDimes ,

Yeah, it’d be so terrible having crazy fucks blowing their own hands off /s

Tenthrow ,
@Tenthrow@lemmy.world avatar

Why does everyone thing 3D printing is magic? You’re not going to be 3D printing weapons that can kill scores of poeple. Any firearm printed on an FDM printer is lucky to fire once without injuring the dipshit wielder.

N0_Varak ,

This comment betrays a lack of understanding around 3d printed firearms.

Of course there are your (nearly) fully plastic single shots like the Harlot that fire small calibers and dont always last long.

On the other hand, there’s plastic lowers (the only part considered a firearm and thus the onlynpart that needs to be bought through an FFL) for AR15s that use off the shelf plumbing supplies for the pressure bearing components.

The files are readily available and able to be printed on low end FDM printers with little adjustment and troubleshooting completely bypassing the need to purchase a firearm from a dealer.
