Never had those. I do regularly have dreams where due to some quirk of the rules or something my 3rd grade education or something didn’t count thus invalidating the rest of my education.

So I show up going “hey I’m like 30, can you just hand me a test or the years homework and I’ll be back next week” only to be told no, so I end up redoing the whole grade.

Yeah huge pita to watch anything on YouTube now. Every 3rd recommended video is clearly made with AI, and I’m sorry but not sorry, your video needs to be made fully by humans for me to care. I don’t care how interesting the topic sounds, if there’s slop in there I’m not watching. I don’t care if the video is obviously low budget give it the human touch.

One of the more annoying things is when it’s AI stick figures, like bro, just draw them yourself, they’re stick figures.

Hell, a few weeks ago I came across a video titled “Why are slugs? Broadly speaking”. Its thumbnail proudly has a “No Ai” on there and it was a good and interesting video on snails and slugs.

Your standard off the shelf easy to setup Linux ISO (mint for example) is like 4 GB after install, it includes a whole office suite, a few games, screensavers, GIMP, and a whole bunch of software you may not ever realize is on there or even need.

Did you know many distros standard install includes the GNU C/C++ compiler? Do most people need the GNU compiler? No, but the whole OS and all these tools is already smaller than a barebones install of windows since microslop just ships bloat.

Yeah I think it was removed in windows 7 or 8.

God that poor woman. That’s so many kids.

Yeah I’ve seen that one before. I was so glad to have training at my job that explicitly stated “if you aren’t the electricity guy, don’t fuck with the electricity” like I’d fucking argue that I should be allowed to lick the 480v. Nope, I want nothing to do with the spicy cables.

I don’t disagree that there needs to be regulation. I fully agree there needs to be regulation. Companies can and will fuck customers over with little to no concern. See for example the enshitification of pretty much everything.

All I am saying is that there are times when voting with your wallet has successfully bullied companies into complying with the will of the people.

Not voting with your wallet doesn’t work? Someone aught to tell Disney that after many people ended their Hulu and Disney+ subscriptions once Kimmel was fired.

Because no human did any work to create that slop. People deserve to be paid for their work and ai slop is just plagiarism to an industrial scale.

A quick googleing says tidal has 110 million songs, spotify 100 million, apple music 100 million, youtube music 100 million… you get the idea there is functionally an unlimited ammount of human generated music. You will never finish any of these services’ catalogs. Don’t use slop.

Reminds me of that tweet:

"Does microsoft understand concent?

• yes
• Ask me again later"

Yeah, people from that city or place moved there and named their new home after their old home. There’s a very Dutch area of Michigan with many immigrants from the Netherlands still there. Want to know a couple town names? Holland and Zeeland.

E-coli appears to be on the bottom left

Yeah, i’ll take a half or quarter assed photoshoped meme over AI slop any day. It at least has some soul to it

This kinda reminds me of when Sony decided to declare war against people putting Linux on their PS3s. Like, buddy, this isn’t someone you can win a war against and you are wasting your time and good will trying to.

AMERICA FUCK YEAH

Yeah same. An infinite converging series isn’t an impressive paradox, all he did was argue you could split an ever smaller fraction of space in half. After learning about it i spent a frustrating amount of time trying to fogure out “how is this a paradox?”

I’m gonna go on a limb here and say that Internet Explorer isn’t chromium based.

Ibwish more linux people had this mentality of “if its not broke don’t fix it”. After years of floating around different distros, I just want something that works, is stable, and the OOTB is easy and works. So I’ve just gone back to mint debian edition. Idc, I don’t have time to be tinkering with my computer

Yup, follow the 3-2-1 rule or you don’t have backups
