Ah right, Wallace. Seemed like everything he did was a cry for help

I think I remember that from my creative writing class! Wasn’t it by O’Connor or someone?

To manifest impotency?

That honestly makes more sense. Mine had the sensors attached to the air valve which sync’d with the car wirelessly and they’d fail for any reason

I had to get new pressure sensors for my old car and decided to roll new tires into it. A mile and a half out of the shop the light popped on and I pulled over to find out that the tech over pressurized one of the tires to 55psi and busted one of the new sensors

I cannot tell if this is legitimate or some potemkin-esque concept design for a factory

I’ve been trying to figure out if Stone Rebel is an AI band or not. They started in 2018 and have put out something like 77 albums since, but it’s relatively simple instrumental. They have almost no information online except a claim that they’re “based in France”

Honestly can’t tell if they’re a legit yet very private group, or if they were early adopters of procgen music

All I’ve got is this hammer drill

They made Venezuelan gangs out to be the big bogeyman without actually producing any actionable evidence or results, so they have to escalate or lose traction on the fear mongering

I remember when Hulu was free

Yup not contesting the article itself, but giving some explanation for all the anger you were wondering being about

It’s a boiling frog thing. AI and LLMs are shoved in our faces everywhere and it’s harder every day to opt out. Job boards are flooded with positions for human in the loop AI training or AI experience requirements. AI gen text, images, and video are obscuring an already muddled information space. They also draw an astronomical amount of energy which is detrimental to the global ecosystem. Meanwhile costs are going up, it’s borderline impossible to get a job, and people are scared this automation will push them out of employment without generating new jobs, especially if art and entertainment are taken over by gen AI. People are saying “I’m being boiled alive” but by the time there’s enough data to validate that we’ll already be stew.

The way information is presented matters too. When articles circulate they get often slanted and summarized (or people just read the headline and make assumptions). Key information gets tossed aside for easy talking points to support whichever narrative and the people affected feel unseen and unheard.

There’s a lot going on and it isn’t just “AI bad”

I honored this with the badge of never-getting-around-to-it

Right? I put in a complaint from the system feedback tool, but I don’t expect a response. Between the way Google is roping off Android and killing dependent open source OS’s, and my relative lack of money, I’m only seeing privacy options dwindle

Not only that, I got the newest android update yesterday and it automatically, without my consent, took my fingerprint and face

I really hope that GOs don’t take the oath lightly. When I taught that lesson to my cadets it was a serious conversation and usually involved stories about commanders I knew who got fired or court-martialed for everything including extra-marital affairs, to belittling subordinates, to fabricating illegal orders (and then breaking international law). I hope it doesn’t come to it, but I imagine that a military court would be less partisan than our current courts have been.

I’m speaking from firsthand experience, my guy. You might want to check your bias too

That is neither a regulation nor a guidance. It only summarizes entrance requirements for training specifically and mentions nothing of graduation.

Admission is highly competitive and includes academic performance, leadership potential, physical fitness and character evaluations.

Even here it mentions core requirements for the entirety of training. Training has its own hurdles. A lot of people wash out because they either can’t maintain academics, fitness, or it’s not a good match for them personally. Trainees can also be removed at any time. I’ve had to do it myself on numerous occasions. Not everyone is cut out for or willing to put in the effort for officership. Check out some DoD, TRADOC, and AFMAN documents for more detail.

The regulations and guidance are publicly available if you would like to educate yourself

Haha you’re in danger
