Progressive Politics@lemmy.world•Fetterman hit with brutal 108-point polling swing: ‘He is below the lowest of the low’
44·3 days agoHe seemed like a Democrat with a spine who wasn’t afraid to piss people off. I liked that. Now I just see him as a disappointment. He doesn’t even make good soundbites.

Not The Onion@lemmy.world•HP realizes that mandatory 15-minute support call wait times isn’t good support
15·4 days agoA 2023 analysis of laptop tech support conducted by Laptop Mag scored HP support highest when accessed via phone (18 points out of a max of 30) or via HP’s support website (12 out of 20 points)…
Um, those still aren’t very good numbers.

News@lemmy.world•Inside the White House plan to sell the Iran war online
11·4 days agoYa know what? I kinda wanna see how cringeworthy, insensitive, unfunny, and just plain bad these “banger memes” will be

Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•Captain's log, Stardate 44614.6. We have encountered a large space dumpling.
1·8 days agoIf I recall correctly, this is kinda how the ambient sounds were recorded for this episode. The guy recorded his own stomach. He didn’t tell his co-worker where the sound came from until after the episode was finished, to avoid grossing him out during editing.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What are the best things to say to someone with body type insecurity?
5·8 days agoBasically I’ll be riding that high the rest of my life…
You were probably half-joking about this, but yes, you will.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Are you OK with slurs being used in irony or dark humor?
1·9 days agoYou’re right; “technique” was a poor choice of words. I should have written “I’d suggest finding a different way to express yourself”.
That’s a good example of my point right there, actually. My wording was off, and I came across as rude when I didn’t intend to.
Yeah, but we’ve known that about people since forever. Computers are expected to be reliable.
If hallucinations aren’t a solvable problem, then either AI is impossible, or we’re going about it the wrong way.
I’m not knowledgeable enough to dispute your point. To the end user, though, the result is equally unreliable.

Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•Why republican/conservative men repeatedly crash Grindr
231·10 days agoI assume that if you’re a woman and a republican, you hate yourself (and other women/girls). You’re probably unbearable to be with.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Are you OK with slurs being used in irony or dark humor?
1·10 days agoI’m okay with it under very limited conditions. To boil it down, I have to be 100% sure that they’re joking. For one thing, people say that shit seriously and then claim “it was just a joke”.
Without things like tone of voice and facial expression for people to go on, you’re gonna be misunderstood sooner rather than later. And yes, you might even find yourself banned. I’d suggest finding a different technique.
Is that… a pocket pussy?
If I ever found myself desperate enough to even consider smoking out of that, I’d have to take a serious look at my life.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Is anybody else worried about the lack of diverse opinion here?
11·10 days agoThis next bit is long, but relevant:
Very true. I also found it to be of refreshingly high quality!

Until they solve the AI hallucination problem, I’ll never be able to trust it.


Knowing how to “read the room” is just as important as any other information an intelligent person may possess. Just because I’m talking about a problem with my car doesn’t necessarily mean I want an exhaustive lecture on fuel pumps. Similarly, knowing how and when to correct someone without hurting their feelings is absolutely vital. Intelligence is a lot less useful if everyone thinks you’re a pedant or an asshole.
