Oh. … why? Also, how does a bot write “R&G” instead of “RNG”? I’m not disputing, I’m just confused.

Sorry, what is your question? Seems like more of a showerthought, no? Whether something is dystopian or not is a matter of opinion to some degree.

R&G

I think you mean RNG, random number generator :)

Luckily, when it’s actually important, people mostly ask your birthdate. That hasn’t changed so far so I usually get it right.

I’m having a hard time applying my (frankly lacking) understanding of federation to what is mostly a static database. Would the benefit be that, say, in case the Star Trek wiki changes its structure and the URL changes, you don’t have to change the Stargate wiki as well?

It’s getting a bit out of hand with all those people with sockpuppets, isn’t it?

Anyway, if 子供 for “(person who is mentally a) kid” is the worst thing you’ve encountered in translation, that must’ve been your first piecd of translated media or you haven’t been paying attention. I wouldn’t even know where to start with all the atrocities I had to witness back when I still consumed the occasional dubbed movie/show. It actually made me want to become a translator so that I could do a better job (didn’t work out, health reasons).

Back when Good Omens S02 came out in 2023, I was apparently feeling masochistic so I switched the language to German for a rewatch. I spent the next two days meticulously writing down all the small and big violations of some geneva convention that the translator committed (also a few actual good bits where I was genuinely impressed). I think I managed to make it through 2 of 6 episodes before I yielded and instead got drunk.

I really should put that up somewhere so I can pretend in my mind like somebody with authority surely will see it EVENTUALLY and rectify that train wreck and people will start paying their translators.

I have never checked what my partner and I look like while kissing and I’ve never asked anyone how that kiss they just shared with someone felt.

I see you deleted the other post where you asked that question. What about the thoughtful answers you got was unsatisfactory?

Oh hey, it’s you. Okay, how does it go again? Ah yes:

This has been explained to you and your sockpuppets several times.

Participate, society, very smart, etc. Top notch.

I have literally never encountered anyone who got mad at me for using Wikipedia. There are certain people who will still repeat what they learnt about it in school 20 years ago when they were told “don’t use Wikipedia as a source” and then they stopped listening. But even those people see the benefits.

I can assure you, the screaming you think of is not because of pain but intense pleasure. Any (ANY!) pain during sexual contact is a reason to stop immediately (unless it’s intentional and with consent by all involved, of course). As others have said, what you’re experiencing is not how it’s supposed to be and you need to consult a doctor to find out what’s happening.

Edit: oh and no, screaming isn’t how all women express pleasure during sex either. There’s an ocean of ways to enjoy sex and all that’s certain is that (unwanted) pain is not normal.

It’s a slur, basically, for AI that pretends to speak like a human. In the Star Wars franchise, people who don’t like droids call them that.

Bad news: clankers occasionally throw in a typo or two as well. Can’t tell you whether that’s intentional or because the (human made) training data includes typos but there it is.

Haha, oh you.

You want https://discuss.tchncs.de/c/bathtubthoughts

That’s your grand purpose? Pretty images that nobody sees because who even browses Lemmy by going to individual communities? I was expecting at least something like a sales pitch for some technology that you invented that will aavd the world where only pretty images that nobody looks at too closely will convince your investors.

I am almost certain, if you ask nice enough, you can find a nice artist on Lemmy or the wider Fediverse who will create a simple image for you, for free or very cheap.

Failing that, use free images from NASA. Perseverance posts a bunch of photos every day.

Goodness, those solar panels have been battered. And somebody spilled their spaghetti all over the ground.

So what purpose is this supposed to serve?

No.

Even if you manage to find a niche valid reason, even if you train on exclusively your own content, even if you run it on your own hardware powered by your own solar panels, it’s still normalising the technology for everybody else who won’t use it like that.

Wat. Details are what AI is worst at.

as a placeholder

And even then, don’t use that placeholder as the basis for further work. It kills creativity and makes your work worse.

Analogue clocks are a much better tool to visualise time than digital. There’s only advantages in learning to read them.
