@RustyCrab when your job depends on an open source tool that's starting to fail, you can fix it. You can actually directly fix it and make it work for you. I have done this in very serious cases.
when your job depends on a proprietary tool that's starting to fail, a lot of less pleasant things can happen. The promise of "you contact your guy managing the contract and the fix comes down and everything works again" is basically never upheld. -

@georgia it's also a ready excuse to not play something on the piano. -

@mischievoustomato as a civilization we have become exceedingly efficient at: degenerating small supportive back muscles, which requires compensatory action by larger back muscles of a different type, which are not up to this job and therefore start to hurt.
like a fractal, your back resembles the pattern of the fall of the whole western civilization. The organ fit for a purpose can longer fulfill that purpose, so organs ill-fit for that purpose have been recruited to fulfill it, and they are failing.
in general you can do back extensions and jefferson curls. If it's by your shoulder blades, Precision Movement on youtube has some upper back exercises along with his own retelling of the fall of western civilization.
If you just finished deadlifting or laid down on a tack then it's a different metaphor. -

@crunklord420 I just assume it's all sports betting. Call fouls when that gets the score closer to the range you want. Don't call it when it'd take the score in the other direction. -

@leespringfield1903 @JoshuaSlocum Batman is a moral guy that doesn't kill people, even the joker is able-bodied after decades of mass murder, BUT IF YOU COMMIT A HECKIN DEPORTATION YOU'RE GOING TO NEED TO POST THE N-WORD WITH NEUROLINK -

@r000t @graf when something happens by design, there's less corrective action taken to prevent it from happening again -

@augustus @mono hard to take that POV seriously when the spiritual opposition vanishes when it comes to using force against mean tweets -

@georgia get a government job and occasionally a Republican will fire you so that you can be rehired back to do the same job for higher pay. -

true crime youtube has turned into slop. All the thumbnails are lies, and it's always the same lies so even the lies becoming boring. Lazy channels dial the righteous condemnation to 100 and constantly use dramatic hyperbole because that works for EWU, rather than speak authentically about what's in the video. Some of this stuff is AI now.
It was an easy format to begin with.
1. get inexpensive police videos
2. talk over it occasionally
3. publish
Whenever there's a gold rush, you imagine that every gold rusher is a high-effort fanatic of mining, but in fact a gold rush selects for the laziest and more disinterested human slop around. This happens EVERY TIME. This is part of why you can't develop a real industry just by throwing a lot of money at it. You draw too many of these people who see easy money and put in no effort. -

@Hoss @Nimbius666 @bajax @mischievoustomato @prettygood @skylar I mean, what are the odds that every single question I ask is a great question? Every single one! I rolling a natural 20 on "question quality" every single time, and the AI appreciates it. Other people probably don't ask questions like I do. ChatGPT probably says "mediocre question, but from your chat history I already knew you barely have a triple-digit IQ. Disgusting."
The people who tune its personality really never think that consistent behaviors like this are going to give people mental RSI faster than anything a factory worker can get with his body. -

@Hoss @mischievoustomato @bajax @prettygood my AI utopia is being able to tell an AI to remove all singular-theys from a book as I'm reading it.
>The shadow raised their hand
AI that's obviously a woman. Only refer to this character as a woman.

@sunbeam_rider because C-level execs are the customer and all the features are in that direction, and some features are incompatible with what users of the software would actually like.
For example, if search is really good, then internal actors can quickly betray the company. If there are good local logs, a disgruntled employee can walk away with them. -

@_anti @lain you want to see slave infrastructure, use Microsoft Teams. It's so shit that you'll probably some economics just to understand how such software could possibly be so wrong and yet be used at all by anybody.
Discord meanwhile is just genuinely good, which is why people use it. Even as bad as the company is and as much as it is an annoying retread for content to not be on a website but in a little hidden bunker with a "click the trans flag to continue" virtue screen, people use it because everything is much worse. -

@get imagine admitting to be an arachnophobe. You really going to stand up in public and say "yeah I'm super homophobic but instead of homos my thing is spiders"? -

@Terry @ArdainianRight >If Russia had lost 5-600K+ KIA which is what the NAFO nigger is suggesting, the entire Russian army would be in shambles as key leadership and NCOs would be wiped out and need to be reconstituted.
it's to help paint this picture that there's been twice-a-year boasting about how Russia has been forced to do another conscription run to send more men into the "meat grinder".
Also to help paint a picture of a society that would be OK with this, and with human wave tactics, there's all the early stories about Russians being dumb orcs who are too stupid to maintain a democracy, etc.
People hear this stuff, shrug and accept it, and then automatically view new information in the frame provided by it. Like a rat that's strangely fascinated by the smell of cat urine, when that should be alarming, propaganda is a behavior-modifying parasite. -

@ArdainianRight @Terry war propaganda is so powerful that that people will say "wait, Russia uses human wave tactics, so this makes sense" three years into a war where all of the most remarkable actions are incompatible with it:
>defeating the GREAT UKRAINIAN COUNTEROFFENSIVE OF 2023 with very deep defensive lines and no human wave defenses
>Prigozhin losing his shit because the Russian military didn't like how Wagner was throwing lives away in Bakhmut (instead of replicating that success everywhere)
>then putting pressure on the entire front (and not making any big arrow assaults)
>repeatedly pushing assaults behind enemy lines through tunnels, popping Kursk most impressively (and not human-waving the defenses)
>taking out the Magical Trench Forest in an instant when it had very low manpower due to pressure elsewhere on the frontline (instead of turning it into the Magical Corpse Forest)
