Holy shit, after reading up a bit more on quantization and weights last night, I was literally going post the same thing this morning. It’s lossy compression for knowledge.

And that’s dangerous because there are perfectly valid nuggets of information that just haven’t been “amplified” enough to get through the noise.

“Do I look like I work here?”

Ngl, that’s a keeper

If MapQuest could get public transit directions as good as Google, I’d drop them completely.

I had a TI-99/4A and backed up games that in input manually from a magazine, on to a cassette tape. My tape recorder had a counter so that you could put multiple programs on a single tape. The fun part was if you forgot to reset the counter or the tape wasn’t rewound to zero you could get half of one program plus half of another.

I thought they couldn’t be DOT certified for road use. Didn’t realize it was just sale. If that’s the case, surprised there isn’t a service to buy them online and have them imported. The same way Tesla got around the franchise laws.

run by cowards whores for money

Fixed that for you.

If I understand it correctly a 9.9 would be 4 times stronger than the largest ever earthquake in history (Chile, 1960) and would be the same energy released as 712,000 nukes dropped in Hiroshima or 187 Tsar Bombas going off at once.

I understand the pucker factor. The scale of those numbers is almost beyond mind numbing.

They had preacher — I mean, they’re doing like prayers on TikTok so he can win the governorship. I mean, they’re like … it’s like demonic stuff that they’re doing, right?

I’m trying to figure out why there is a small vocal minority so hell bent on saying “it’s not those bots!”. What purpose does it serve? It’s like the kid who’s hand is stuck in the cookie jar trying to deflect to something else.

So tell me, why are you pushing things so hard?

Anecdotally, I have seen much less pro-Republican sentiment on the Facebook feed for my local newspaper. Usually anything related to Paxton or Trump is heavily “yay MAGA! go USA!” and name calling against liberals. Since the attack, I’ve barely seen any of that narrative and it’s people calling them out for their actions.

Could that mean that the entire user base had a change of heart and flipped? Sure, but unlikely.

Trump feels that what is right for Trump is right for America. And though technically there is nothing wrong from a procedural point of view, he is completely stupid and does not understand that trust is a currency on the world stage and he just blew it all.

I won’t even get into the fact that helping Russia, who is helping Iran, is directly damaging the US. Surely someone near him has connected those dots

Honestly I didn’t even notice either I those. I just noticed the face that has had some work done on it and the “my boss wishes I was his daughter” overall look.

Even up in New England there are almost zero Canadian license plates on cars. I’ve seen maybe 2-3 in the past couple weeks.

Yeah I haven’t blocked too many people but I’m about block this guy. It’s obvious he’s a tankie shill.

I had a recruiter from CA pushing hard to get me to interview. So glad i noped out of it.

I had one guy that would always no warn call me, and I would immediately decline it and ping him “what did you need?”

The Teams ring tone was one of the “horns” in Forza Horizon. I would use it during races and watch as people suddenly stopped and went into their pause menu. Ultimate psychological warfare.

“it’s got three speed settings: low, medium and ‘who needs a man?’”

When did I say either one was good. Re-read my original comment. My point was for independent power, not just switching from one “master” to another. It would do good for both China and the US to lose their soft power and have a more level shift of independence among nations.
