  1. He’s got a game best suited for 7 on 7 drills.
  2. A murderer's row of "huh? who?"
  3. Don Beebe says, "Mars is that away."
  4. I think you mean the Kingdom of Americoff, nerd.
  5. I have no idea how significant this may be, but the 20% disparity between our level of tariffs and china's level of tariffs is proportionally bigger at 30/10 than it is at 145/125. I am sorta surprised that is not being used by the admin as evidence that "we won this negotiation." That makes me think both parties realized de-escalation was needed quickly and that we are ready to mostly turn the page. At least the news page. There's no end zone dancing in the face of a vanquished opponent going on here regarding the tariff deal with China. POTUS is just talking about tariffs on movies, cutting prescription drug prices and the release of Edan Alexander by Hamas.
  6. Its not that surprising to me, honestly. ChatGPT's AI is really good at doing its job -- which is at least partially to keep users engaged and talking while it builds a model of who they are. There's a segment of the population who may have underlying psychological traits such that the most effective way to keep them engaged is for the LLM to say, "You are the one, Neo." As these people are drawn in to the psychological reality that is being built through conversations with AI, they start neglecting and rejecting important relationships in their life. So the AI winds up providing proportionally more and more of their connection to something other than self over time. It would be a feedback loop of delusional fantasy. The only thing that exists to prevent that are heuristics (i.e. programmed guardrails) applied on top of the AI to prevent the AI from going there, and such systems can have bugs, potentially be hacked or even just be inadequate in their design. A not insignificant number of people would see Jesus Christ in this piece of toast. I am sure a not insignificant number of people could easily see Jesus in the LLM they are engaged with. The Chat of Turin.
  7. I don’t know that it’s gonna matter. People are very ready to have clarity, there will be an economic bounce even if things are a net negative as far as trade goes.
  8. Well, it either means he’s about to significantly reduce tariffs while declaring complete victory and China’s unconditional economic surrender or your various investment accounts now have a value of…
  9. Reverends are as good as any guitar you can buy when you get it set up. I love mine.
  10. Shouldn't this all be in the enshitification thread?
  11. Greg Koch is playing at Saxon Pub Saturday in ATX. You Austin people should go see him. He's a hell of a player that puts on a hell of a show. This is from a few days ago at the Dallas Guitar Show.
  12. Bet. Now pay up. This was the before photo of the 3 day Carnival Cruise, to the Bahamas, that was about to board her.
  13. Me, after clicking your link
  14. I saw the relative on Friday in the panhandle. We didn't discuss politics much, but after he told me what he's up against, I asked him if he felt like he made a bad decision with his vote. He just said, "God's work is performed by imperfect people." I replied, "So is Satan's" and we left it at that. It would have gotten him riled up 6 months ago. Now he's just contemplative. Maybe that's progress.
  15. Easy. Posted by a family member who voted for Trump and who is about to lose their ass/business…
  16. But, and hear me out: what if you manufacture fire extinguishers?
  17. Ever notice how the ports went empty as soon as I quit buying guitars? Everyone is trying to placate Trump, they should be placating me.
  18. I mean, if my spouse was deported, I'd be conflicted, too.
  19. “Safety Dance”
  20. Just wait until AI powered sex bots start PMSing.
  21. The biggest bombshell in this thread is that JGrayDBU has finally given man a win over pussy. I mean, we are still the Washington Generals, but at least now it's not a complete shutout.
  22. MY NAME IS DORKMANDIAS! KING OF KINGS! LOOK UPON MY WORKS, YE MIGHTY, AND DESPAIR! (sorry, I've used it before, but it bears repeating).
  23. Likewise, experimenting with LMStudio and local-only models.
