I don’t have the exact numbers on hand, but only like 1% of smokers die of smoking-induced cancer. Most die of heart attacks, followed by strokes and nasty infections with COPD.

And you always know you’re talking to not particularly bright specimens, when they’re sincerely talking about “the cure for cancer”. It will never exist, because cancer is not a singular thing. Cancer is a category for hundreds of diseases.

The paragraph on the meter should mention that their measuring error from the pole to the equator was .02%, which, without using satellites or even electricity, is fucking impressive.

Yes, old news is now new news.

Seriously, this has been posted 4 times a day for 2 weeks now.

Myes, this is my style of weird.

We need Communism. My point was them talking about water as a commodity and investment opportunity, is about monopolizing it and putting it into plastic bottles; nothing that’s remotely useful for society as a whole.

Within the context of capitalism, I would be fine with it, iff they were talking about investing into relevant infrastructure, desalination plants, and so on. But, they’re not.

You’re welcome. /s

Die SPD war schon mal Steigbügelhalter für Nazis weil sie Kooperation mit weiter links verweigert hat. Würde mich überhaupt nicht verwundern, wenn sie das wiederholen; Aber ich wäre enttäuscht.

Historisch hat die Mitte sich aber immer für Rechts entschieden, wenn es drauf ankam.

How about /s for sincerely? /s

edit: added /s for clarification

History has shown again and again, when centrists are forced to chose between left and fashism (right), they chose fashism. All centrists are fashist-enablers.

I’m pretty sure if I wrote a book called the “Adventures of Harry Potter,” I would get sued immediately.

Just call it Perry Hotter. Disrupting the female world of sorcery with his magic wand of love.

Your son with the hump, weird long deformed fingers, and garbled text on the sleeves?

The bubble wrap morphing into the candle and it not burning vertically seem legit to you?

At the end of the day it’s a matter of taste. Unlike you, I have good taste.

10 years too late.

Well, that went sorth quickly.

The actual real deal big boy models are so far beyond what your avg even extremely technical user understands. Unless you are actively watching following and using the models you just flat out have no clue just how fast this shit is sprinting.

You evidently do not understand the technology. LLMs inherently cannot reach AGI or anything resembling a thought process. And they scale poorly. Tons of compute are thrown at it to make the illusion marginally better. None of the inherent problems have been solved.

You could just as well burn money in front of a photorealistic painting in the hope it turns alive. No matter the amount of money you burn, it never will. Same with LLMs.

Thank you, that is reassuring.
