Yeah but this time they've got bunkers and AI, so they think this time it's different.

Apparently they can, they just cater to richer people now. Eventually they'll make even the most basic essentials into luxury goods. Then they'll figure out that they can make profits go up even higher if they don't waste money actually making things and instead sell virtual goods that are infinitely replicable. Then everyone starves to death.

Do you? Control over the medium is far more powerful than being a mere user of that medium.

You can be pro-Israel and anti-genocide.

That's like saying you can be pro-nazi-germany and anti-nazi. There is no nuance in sending billions of dollars in weapons to a country actively committing genocide. That can only be taken to mean support for genocide.

This is being done by the "facts don't care about your feelings" people?

[–] hark@lemmy.world 2 points 4 days ago

Maybe. It's probably not high quality training data for the most part, though.

I've used it to explore some avenues without having to write a complete implementation. If the approach shows promise, then I go through the code and mostly rewrite it because the code it generates is terrible. I also use it if I don't care about the project I'm on. They want to "do test-driven development" while having poorly-defined requirements that constantly change on a whim while also setting unreasonable unit test coverage thresholds? Cool, I'll let the AI shit out a bunch of unit tests and waffle stomp it to satisfy your poorly thought out project requirements.

That's the P in ChatGPT: Pre-trained. It has "learned" based on the set of data it has been trained on, but prompts will not have it learn anything. Your past prompts are kept to use as "memory" and to influence output for your future prompts, but it does not actually learn from them.

It wasn't just a mere change in government, it was a complete rebuild of Germany with safeguards put into place to prevent the regrowth of fascism. That is what it meant for nazi germany to have been eliminated, and something similar should happen with israel. The genocide, apartheid, and ethnocentrism has broad support within israel, far beyond just one side of the government, the entire country was founded on these principles. If israel continues to exist, it should exist in name only, because the country as it currently exists is a poison and would be like allowing nazi germany to continue existing.

Why shouldn't the genocidal apartheid ethnostate known as israel be eliminated the same way nazi germany was?

I didn't expect republicans to interrupt their own masturbatory moment of silence. Anyway, I would've been tempted to rip the loudest, nastiest fart I could muster, even at the risk of shitting my pants.

 

I saw this post titled "Scratch a anti-harm reductionist and a fascist bleeds" (https://lemmy.world/post/33320759)

I commented that "harm reduction" apparently means sending billions in weapons to israel while they commit genocide and shutting down campus protests speaking out against that genocide. I said that seemed pretty fascist to me.

Within an instant, they downvoted my post and banned me. Guess it's my fault for posting in a circlejerk community, but I'm still scratching my head on how that makes me a tankie. Something tells me this mod would be calling in the tanks to suppress any dissent if they could.

 

Context: https://lemmy.world/comment/14613536 Screenshotted context just in case:

A user claims that the killing in Palestine stopped under Biden now. I point out that biden had full-throatedly supported the genocide for over a year. A mod deletes my post and says that biden didn't "state" (keyword here) full-throated support for genocide.

I counter by saying I consider sending billions in support of genocide counts as full-throated support for genocide. I also point out that I didn't say Biden stated his support for genocide and that he didn't need to outright state it because actions speak louder than words.

I receive a temp ban for that counter and the mod adds a response where they claim the weapons were "provided for defense from Iran, full stop." which sounds to me like actual misinformation because how the hell does bombing hospitals in Gaza defend Israel from Iran? I'm not bothered by their stupid opinion, but I am bothered that they are enforcing it through moderation.

I ran into a similar moderation problem on the Political Memes community also on .world, but I didn't bother making a post here for that because that's just a dumb meme community and I was better off just blocking it, but now this is concerning a world news community and it's awful to see something like this happening in a community that's supposed to keep people aware of the news.

But hey, maybe I'm wrong and it actually is misinformation to say it's full-throated support of genocide to send billions in weapons to a country using those weapons to commit genocide. Please let me know what you think!

 

Not entirely sure what this is, but it was revealed during the Jackbox collab on Calli's channel. Reveal on June 18th 8:00PM PDT apparently!
