I may not support those military actions, but we promised to take care of them. They deserve to be taken care of.

I mean, this is why you don’t trust fascists, but they sure didn’t know that when they signed up.

Listen, kid, I’ve been on reddit since 2009. I hung out with the admins in IRC back in the day. I was a default mod for a while, and I’m the “father” of /r/nottheonion.

There’s plenty I don’t know about reddit and life in general, but on this topic, clearly I know a fuck ton more than you.

There was a time on reddit when self-promotion was against the rules. That rule was dropped something like a decade ago.

The simple fact is that - from at least the article’s telling - the subreddits wanted the content, and in that case, it is absolutely fine and encouraged for someone to submit.

There’s a guy making youtube reviews of restaurants in my local city’s subreddit. The content is popular - people like it. So we absolutely are happy to see him post. Is it self-promotion? Yes, technically. It’s also relevant to the subreddit and desired by the mods and members of the subreddit.

You’re like the people saying “dis a repost” when someone CROSS-posts. Note that reddit has a BUILT IN SYSTEM for cross-posting, but there are redditors who don’t know that.

So, little boy, you can take your condescension and /r/confidentlyincorrect along with /r/iamverysmart and fucking LEARN something, or go off and continue to be willfully ignorant.

Disclaimer: If the article’s reporting is incorrect and the subreddits considered it spam, well, that’s not what the article said, and I don’t otherwise have other knowledge of it, nor do I care enough to google for any other possible sources. But that’s the informatio you’re working off of as well, so there’s that.

PS: To add a light-hearted end: I’ll go to /r/dontyouknowwhoiam now :) (that name seems too long. Is that the right one/ Well, you probably know what I mean and I’m too lazy to look it up :P )

Unless the article is absolutely lying, it mentioned the subreddits wanted the posts and couldn’t overcome the sitewide ban (i.e. manually approving the content). Your comment is a really huge stretch there.

Mine came from simply saying that a drone would probably take care of a Russian solder seen in a video on crutches heading toward the front lines in Ukraine. Literally just that. Not saying it with any joy or approval, just a statement of fact. Phrased pretty damn much like I said it in this comment here.

Like you just did with your comment and OP did with their posting: non paid ad posting

Welp, seems Tennessee has become jealous of Texas and Florida.

“All your base are belong to us” and the monologue about the Magic / More Magic toggle.

if you’re wanting to wash it at home,

The AI should absolutely understand the implication that you want to wash your car at the car wash, not at home. The prompt is clear about that, even though it is implied.

“I want a hamburger. McDonald’s is three miles from me and Wendy’s is five miles. Which is the cheaper place to get a burger from when you consider the distance to each?” is not an exact analogy, but the point is that it should be ABSOLUTELY clear that you do not wish to make your own hamburger. Any response that discusses that as an option is ridiculout, unless maybe it’s one of those options-at-the-end thing LLMs love to do - but it has no part of the main answer at all.

You have to have the car there no matter what type of car wash it is.

If the car wash is some distance “away”, it means neither you nor the car is at it. Any attendant is not going to walk off-property to retreive your car, especially when most of them you drive up for service. Which is rather the point.

I’m not afraid to say that it took me a sec. My brain went “short distance. Walk or drive?” and skipped over the car wash bit at first. Then I laughed because I quickly realized the idiocy. :shrug:

Excuse me, but I"ve been waiting here to check out for fifteen seconds. I want your manager!

The other three in the car including his sister said nothing about anything suspicious, and they surely would have.

And if you believe that “someone is keeping them quiet”, then all bets are off and nothing anyone says matters. :shrug:

What key do you have to press to read the article where three other people in the car including his sister didn’t notice anything suspicious?

So it is your assertion that his own sister and the other two occupants of the crash who got out but were unable to get him out - they didn’t notice anything suspicious at all? And you think that if there was anything suspicious, nobody would have reported it?

I say this is a failure of common sense and of the internet.

Not if you read the article’s account of the crash, which is well down in the article.

In particular, the part about how his sister and the other two people in the car didn’t mention anything suspicious.

Fuck at home.

Sure. Or maybe at a nice hotel.

Hah. I’ve been involved in more than 60 theatrical productions in my life, and most of my jobs were in some form of IT. I feel seen <3

A tiny bit of good news in an ocean full of sewage? I’ll take it.

I’m all for getting them more solar and getting more of them with stable power. And more weapons against Russia.

I’m also suspicious that the ransonware attack had anything to do with AI, but I didn’t want to say so because going against the common consensus in threads like this gets me downvoted, so I’d rather not say it if people aren’t going to consider it (and then agree or disagree). heh

Then again, as a user of emdashes^[1] — I suppose I’m under suspucion of being an LLM as well. ;-)

Would you like me to compose responses to any other comments in this thread?^[2]

Well. It would be the zeroth law, first of all, but the three laws would most definitely not allow humans to die.

The whole point of I, Robot was cases where the three laws were circumvented in various ways.
