The Ramen Dutchman

Prove you’re a bot or a nerd by solving this equation:

Loomer is not a very credible source…

Also, you could’ve been much nicer about this. There was no need for you to insult people over this.

I would say it’s a good example of a bad use-case for an LLM; you don’t have sources, and you can’t fact-check anything. Those two are absolutely vital requirements when claiming something as true.

Aside from that, most generative AI have been trained on vast amounts of data that was never allowed to go into the dataset; copyrighted/IP-righted paintings, articles, comics, and novels have been included against the wishes of the artists/authors. The fact that nothing is being done on a legal system level shows that copyright and IP rights clearly do not apply to American oligarchs, and many of us don’t like that. Most generative AIs also need an absurd amount of power to run and hurt the environment a lot. It sucks to separate paper and plastic waste just to know that there are people blasting through an hour worth of airconditioning just to ask a computer something they could’ve looked up instead (and found sources, too!)

I say this as someone who loves using AI and experimenting with it¹: This was a very bad use-case of generative AI.

¹: although lighter ones and locally like Mistral, using open datasets like OpenOrca

I do think they couldn’t catch the killer, and they needed a scapegoat just to make an example out of someone.

No need to track down your scapegoat; especially not when you just found someone’s cringy but fitting manifesto online.

I would guess that if you go province by province, state by state, territory by territory, you can probably find others with very high gun ownership rates.

Well, yes, the Falkland Islands.

Out of the completely sovereign countries, Yemen would be second place, though the US more-than-doubles their gun ownership per 100 civilians indeed.
Now, Falkland Islands and Yemen also have far, far fewer guns than the US; their high gun ownership comes in part from their small population.
India and China rank second and third in total guns owned by civilians, but purely through their sheer population. Gun ownership per 100 civilians ranks low in China (3.6%) and so-so in India (5.3%).

Don’t get me wrong, the fact that the US only barely doesn’t double some tiny territory’s gun ownership by population, still speaks volumes for the US’s insane level of gun ownership!

As a Mint user, you got me worried about the community I’m in (^^;

Sounds like a good call on your part, yeah.

Not exactly an “outlet” but a place that was closed down for excessive fecal bacteria…to which he disagreed.

He disagreed with the fecal bacteria? I mean, whatever floats his boat, but they’re going to infect him anyway.

Or calories on packaging.

Or inches in Europe when talking about a screen from S. Korea, which was designed in cm to begin with.

Okay, show me your d5280 or d72, then.

Than remembering 10, 10, 10, 10, 10, 10; because metric has more measurements most people don’t use as well!

• 10 millimetres to a centimetre
• 10 centimetres to a decimetre
• 10 decimetres to a metre
• 10 metres to a decametre
• 10 decametres to a hectometre
• 10 hectometres to a kilometre

Okay, but I don’t use a measurement system for close enough, I use a measurement system when I want to be precice.

Especially with several thousand kilometres.

“Eleven mega metre” rolls off the tongue much better than “eleven thousands kilo metre” IMO.

You can tell how bad a news site is when they translate billion to biljoona and thus making the amount 1000 times higher.

Looks like we have something in common! Hämmästyttävä!

Almost, if I can believe this Wikipedia article Falkland Islands has just over half as much as the US.

This actually happens?

You’re right on with pets, had a lil’ doggo that did NOT want his medicine, lil’ pooch would eat around it in his food, squirm in six dimensions if you tried to force him, and yes one time he even used teeth!
Needless to say I was, in fact, not using teeth.

Our current doggo tho, eats her food with or without medicine. One time we forgot to give her her pill when she was on medication for something, I just told her it was a biscuit and she ate it, no questions asked. This is a blessing.

Willen wij meer of minder MAGAanen in Nederland?!
