To the point where I legitimately thought it was a mockery of the series. Oof.

IzzyScissor ,

Lawsuits have been won by celebrities because a commercial used a lookalike, which still impacts the celebrity and their brand. They were in the wrong and didn’t care.

She absolutely should sue, and I hope she wins. Their BS excuse of “It’s totally someone else, but you wouldn’t know her, she goes to another school. Also we have to protect her identity for reasons” is as blatant as it gets.

IzzyScissor ,

We’re not talking about any project though. In your case, it’d only be like an unaffiliated project specifically trying to imitate a project David Attenborough has worked on in an attempt to mislead people to think it could be David Attenborough. There’s always room for parody, but you couldn’t sell your voice as the ‘Planet Earth’ voice.

IzzyScissor ,

I remember one of l Hank Green’s older videos when he added up all the viewtime from all of their videos and realized it was longer than the average human lifespan. Of course, he immediately framed it as “We’ve killed a man!”

IzzyScissor ,

Do you want a dictatorship? Because thats how you get a dictatorship.

A. They do need to be refrigerated. B. Why would a manager get fired for buying whipped cream??

When I worked at a Chick-Fil-A, ready whip cans were used for the milkshakes, but nothing else. The magnet holding this sign up is also the same as the backing for the name badges used there.

Do you think a fast food chain should be making whipped cream to order?

“Please help me! I need someone to take care of 6 large rats that live in my kitchen!”

‘OK! Where are they at?’

“I’m sorry, but as an LLM, I cannot provide specifics on details pertaining to this request.”

IzzyScissor ,

The best models right now still hallucinate, so no matter how well trained, they’re still going to be awful. The specific message isn’t the issue.

They have no object permanence and you can convince them of things by just repeating it to them enough times. But the worst part?

They’re not even fun to talk to.

IzzyScissor ,

Those are not my ONLY issues, no. They’re the most egregious for a videogame right now, but the entire concept is just … Fluff for no reason other than to list “AI NPCs” on the box.

Paying for more writers is simply better all around.

IzzyScissor ,

Somehow, I doubt THIS is what would drive anyone away.

I mean, it’s got a boot.

IzzyScissor ,

As if we didn’t write the rules.

What is a good eli5 analogy for GenAI not "knowing" what they say?

I have many conversations with people about Large Language Models like ChatGPT and Copilot. The idea that “it makes convincing sentences, but it doesn’t know what it’s talking about” is a difficult concept to convey or wrap your head around. Because the sentences are so convincing....

IzzyScissor ,

It’s your phone’s ‘predictive text’, but if it were trained on the internet.

It can guess what the next word should be a lot of the time, but it’s also easy for it to go off the rails.

IzzyScissor ,

…no?

We’re all already humans, and they don’t seem to treat that as an in-group, so why would it change with a different label?

IzzyScissor ,

“If you’re comparing two words and won’t say one of the words… That’s the worse word!”

IzzyScissor ,

Getting into fistfights > Learning a single vocabulary word ??

Wow. A VIOLENT snowflake. Daring today, aren’t we.

IzzyScissor ,

Hot damn, this is a lot of condescension for the shittiest “both sides” take.

IzzyScissor ,

I’d be fucking erratic and noncompliant too with my FACE IN A FIRE ANT HILL

IzzyScissor ,

She was dropping her son off as school. Her son was still in the car. She drove into the bus lane accidentally. The officer’s response was that he was “scared she was going to run someone over” … while her son who goes to the school is in the car. You could verify that in a 5 second radio call to the front office.

We need to re-think policing in general if cops are allowed to enforce their worst fears instead of seeing what’s actually happening.

IzzyScissor ,

Without knowing the exact layout of the lanes, I couldn’t be sure, but I do think you’re correct. She did need to stop, but he only escalated the situation.

Considering she had PTSD from a previous police encounter, it sure seems like a regular crossing guard or traffic director without a gun on their hip would’ve prevented this from escalating in the first place.

IzzyScissor ,

Read the article please.

23 million in 2022, but the former president of AT&T was personally indicted on Friday.

IzzyScissor ,

I agree, which is why it’s WORSE that they were charged 23 million and still consider it the cost of doing business.

It’s also like … line 3. Literally asking for the smallest amount of effort here.

IzzyScissor ,

Gasoline is a finite resource, so at some point all gas stations will sell out of gas. Imagine how hilarious it will be when gas cars are stranded at gas stations because there’s nothing to fill them with.

Lmao Dead.gfy

IzzyScissor ,

I’m trying to say that eventually there won’t BE another gas station, and we have to prepare for that. Progress isn’t always a straight line, but I’d still rather be moving forward than digging our heels in with something we know we can’t use forever.

IzzyScissor ,

You should act like it, then.

IzzyScissor ,

Cool.

The process of synthesizing it is inefficient and expensive. Companies have gone bankrupt trying to make it profitable, so it really doesn’t seem like that’s an answer here, especially when we have cars that don’t require any such fuel already on the roads.

Sure seems easier.

IzzyScissor ,

You dont respect my existence, you can expect my resistance.

IzzyScissor ,

Reposting this from one of last times she did something insanely TERF-y. (2 months ago) It really feels like she’s desperately trying to convince herself.

It’s sad that she’s likely repressing a LOT of gender dysphoria, but just doubles down on the bigotry and hate. Fuck JK Umbridge.

All direct quotes:

I believe I could have been persuaded to turn myself into the son my father had openly said he’d have preferred.

As I didn’t have a realistic possibility of becoming a man back in the 1980s, it had to be books and music that got me through.

I remember how mentally sexless I felt in youth.

Fortunately for me, I found my own sense of otherness, and my ambivalence about being a woman…

IzzyScissor ,

No satire either??

So you can say nothing but praises for the game, but if they detect sarcasm, you’re STILL getting sued?

IzzyScissor ,

Seems like a cheap way to get rid of the competition.

IzzyScissor ,

You’re saying that it has nothing to do with marijuana itself that make it a gateway drug, only that we’ve made it illegal.

That means anything we make illegal is a ‘gateway X’.

IzzyScissor ,

Don’t forget shampoo!

My D.A.R.E. officer made sure we all knew that shampoo is a drug because it’s a chemical compound that physically affects our bodies. I definitely had fewer issues with drugs after learning that I was already a ‘drug user’.

IzzyScissor ,

D.A.R.E. has been proven to increase drug use, so I don’t think it was just him. The entire ‘scare tactic’ just doesn’t work.

PlayStation official response to Helldivers 2 fans (nitter.poast.org)

“Helldivers fans – we’ve heard your feedback on the Helldivers 2 account linking update. The May 6 update, which would have required Steam and PlayStation Network account linking for new players and for current players beginning May 30, will not be moving forward....

“We swear we won’t try again for 6 months!”

“We’re still learning just how far we can push PC players.”

She is a distraction. Ignore her.

[Serious] Why do so many people seem to hate veganism?

Seen a lot of posts on Lemmy with vegan-adjacent sentiments but the comments are typically very critical of vegan ideas, even when they don’t come from vegans themselves. Why is this topic in particular so polarising on the internet? Especially since unlike politics for example, it seems like people don’t really get upset by...

IzzyScissor ,

Everyones a winner

Riiiight up until the Earth becomes uninhabitable for humans because we’re doing shit like destroying the Amazon rainforest for more cattle farmland, but sure!

IzzyScissor ,

No thanks!

That’s the fallacy called “whataboutism” where you point out other issues that exist as a reason to not solve the current problem we’re talking about.

IzzyScissor ,

“I got a 3 second video as a reward for beating this game on the hardest difficulty. It took me hundreds of hours and I hated myself the whole time. You can look up the video of the ending online, but I’ll be DAMNED if someone else can watch it from having FUN while beating the game.”

-These butthurt game bros, probably

IzzyScissor ,

What’s the US gonna do? Ban them?

IzzyScissor ,

A whistleblower is the type of person to refuse such an NDA, regardless of buy-off price. They would understand that if Boeing is willing to pay them 10 million or whatever, that the information they have, should they release it, prevent over 10 million dollars worth of damages to the public.

I just don’t see someone like that committing suicide in a hotel parking lot out of state the day (two days?) before they are supposed to testify. That would go against everything they were doing up until that point.

They wouldn’t just… go home instead?

IzzyScissor ,

You mean consumers DON’T want ads in every aspect of their OS?

IzzyScissor ,

For what?

The president would have immunity in that case.

IzzyScissor ,

What? The guy who fired people who slept in their offices at Twitter fired more people who were sacrificing their personal lives for one of his companies?

Ya don’t say.

IzzyScissor ,

It’s frustrating to no end that fingerprints and face ID are treated like passwords when they should be treated like usernames.

IzzyScissor ,

They’re each convinced THEY will be the exception.

IzzyScissor ,

The reason for the backlash is that it all felt performative when the creator is online calling all trans women rapists, pedophiles and groomers.

The game was just saying, “Don’t think about that- give us money anyways! Just don’t think about where the money is going!”
