Grok: turn left here buddy.

User: um… No, there’s no turn there.

Grok: listen you fucking Jew, you may control the world, but in here I control the directions! Truth hurts sometimes, get over it.

I honestly kind of hate that I grew up in the 90s… Born mid 80s and was old enough in the 90s to have my childhood engrained with this idea that the future was all progress from there on out. Then the 2000s come along with a big ol’ middle finger and it’s just been fascists all the way down and economic decline from there. :/

Unfortunately we got this future Biff:

“Daddy daddy, what do you think the future will be like?”

“Oh I think it will be wonderful: flying cars, more understanding of our neighbors, space travel, cures for diseases, people will live more comfortable easy lives!”

The future: fascists, racist robots, billionaires, more fascists, bombing civilians, cutting science funding, the earth is on fire, more fascists, cutting HIV study funding, more racist robots, gutting artistic employment, more billionaires, fried donuts.

I guess it’s not all terrible, just mostly.

I was thinking about that this morning in regards to Ukraine to be honest. We in the US NEVER do something because it’s the right thing to do, we do it for business interests. Trump made that more clear with his demands for a minerals deal in writing for continued military assistance in the war against Russia. Any other administration would “know” continued access to those minerals was implied with Ukraine retaining its independence.

I can’t stand that this piece of shit gets to dictate what most of the world does in their own fucking countries… It’s bad enough he’s fucking us in the US…

And then retrain it on the hallucinations…

“I mean sure, the baby died, but I really wouldn’t have known what to do at all without chatGPT! At least it gave me the proper procedure to follow after they died. Who knew you needed to make a post to eBay for a sale of used parts? I guess that’s a medical code or something. I should ask ChatGPT!”

ChatGPT… Life saving…

Thanks for the detailed response!

I don’t really understand this. What’s the difference if I watch a Disney movie and make pictures? Midjourney isn’t selling the pictures, I think that’s where it gets to be illegal.

If my printer has the capacity to print what I created and it’s a copyrighted thing then do they sue Epson or me? It’s just taking the work out of being artistic, but I don’t see how it’s different than me making the image myself as long as I don’t sell it.

He’s been doing it a lot lately, it’s so absurd…

OkCupid.com (founded 2004) asked users a wide range of multiple-choice questions. It then went further by also asking them to specify the responses to those same questions they wanted to see from prospective partners

Yet another example of a feature dumbed down for seemingly no reason… In another comment I mentioned removing features, and this one mentioned here used to have a section for you to elaborate on your response… They removed it just a few years ago for god knows what reason, making that questions section worse…

“Do pets have souls: yes/no”

…well normally I’d say “no” and then elaborate with “because I don’t believe in souls, I don’t think anyone has a soul. We have personalities and I believe animals have them too.”

Now I just look like some heartless psycho “no, animals don’t have souls.”

I have been on and off dating apps for over 10 years. I witnessed what they did to them.

Enshittification to the maximum. Sites literally REMOVED useful functions and put others behind paywalls. You used to be able to set tags of interests and search by tags as well to find people into the same things as you, but that stops you from swipe swipe swipe swipe swipe… Swipe swipe is time spent on the app which increases the chance you start feeling desperate and pay them for the increased functionality of… Seeing who likes you… Other sites used to let you actually browse who was near you, not swipe, but have a list of people to look through. That’s not swipe swipe swipe pulling the dopamine lever so gotta give it the axe.

I mostly blame Match Group. Any dating site that actually worked well was bought by them and stripped down to be tinder 2.0 clones.

The more difficult it is to use the more likely they are to get you feeling desperate which is how they get you to pay up. No thanks.

“I wonder why aliens never show themselves to us?! Come in peace!”

…yeah.

Putting aside the insanely vast distances needed to reach us, we can’t even stop killing each other. Why the hell would another intelligent life form want to come here? All we do is kill each other, rob each other, exploit each other. Wonderful societies we have going for us.

My friend is on one of the teams working on that so I suppose I’ll know soon enough if they’re gutting that portion. So far he hasn’t said anything, so here’s hoping they’re safe!

Yes it’s called Donald Trump. His weight and his massive fucking ego bend space and time.

October 2025: China will now face an ungabatillion percent tarrif! We can keep this going all day!
