Robert's cynicism is cracking these days soon. His laughter is increasingly forced and joyless.

These are shit times.

I am not sure what you mean by saying the CPC isn’t Communist anymore.

The CPC has never been communist.

It's socialist.

The number drops a bit when the polls are done in secrecy. Still far higher than any western government, mind.

To clarify for any pseudo intellectual who happens to be reading:

" is true for you utter idiot" is not an example of the ad hominem fallacy.

" is true because you're an utter idiot" is an example of the ad hominem fallacy.

Glad to be of service.

Have you considered taking a communications course so you don't sound like a pretentious, obfuscating jackass?

Eschew gratuitous obfuscation. (See what I mean?)

Would this be the military that could only reach a standstill in Korea? That lost in Vietnam? That lost in Afghanistan? That ran away scared from Mogadishu? That "won" in Iraq by generating the world's largest collection of terrorists until the blowback lost you two large towers and a smaller one?

That military?

At work? My go-to activity is to get the Hell out of the toilet as quickly as possible.

I hate squat toilets, see.

You'll find that happens a lot when Americans comment on things abroad. Victims if their own educational system that they are, they really don't know anything about the world outside of their borders so they just make vague pronouncements and nod as if they've said something wise instead of having just shit their own pants for all to see.

From above:

A large portion of Americans only have 2 brain cells and they’re both busy fighting for 3rd place.

And here we have a case in point: an American who can't read history.

I've been listening to Tanya Tagaq's Retribution album this morning. She's by far the best Inuk-punk performer in the world, no exceptions. (I say this with confidence because she's the only Inuk-punk performer in the world. 🤭)

Simon Whistler is a presenter and it often shows. He's pretty entertaining, and he has the look of a scholar which gives him some gravitas and credibility when he talks, but he isn't particularly knowledgeable of anything (including topics he's already covered in one channel when presenting the same topic on another).

So of course he thinks ChatGPT is smart.

 

So when they return to port they can just Scandinavian.

explanation if needed"scan the navy in"

 

Apparently he doesn't understand cyberpunk either, which explains so much about him.

 

If only this were instead him being revoked membership in Society in general.

Recalling that LLMs have no notion of reality and thus no way to map what they're saying to things that are real, you can actually put an LLM to use in destroying itself.

The line of attack that this one helped me do is a "Tlön/Uqbar" style of attack: make up information that is clearly labelled as bullshit (something the bot won't understand) with the LLM's help, spread it around to others who use the same LLM to rewrite, summarize, etc. the information (keeping the warning that everything past this point is bullshit), and wait for the LLM's training data to get updated with the new information. All the while ask questions about the bullshit data to raise the bullshit's priority in their front-end so there's a greater chance of that bullshit being hallucinated in the answers.

If enough people worked on the same set, we could poison a given LLM's training data (and likely many more since they all suck at the same social teat for their data).

 

This band is the second Chinese folk metal band I encountered. I was expecting something more like things along the line of 小雨 (Mysterain) when I started listening—which is to say symphonic folk metal—and instead I got … this.

In short I got my mind blown.

This band started my dive into Chinese metal culture, and what I like best about this song, the one that started that dive (or perhaps that pushed me into the deep end of the pool) is that it showed the astonishing diversity of the scene. This is straight-up blackened death metal mixed in cunning ways with traditional Chinese melodies and instrumentation that gives it a unique voice of its own that very few others can match. (葬尸湖/Zuriaake is probably the only other band that can compare in this regard, though less on the instrumentation and more on the melody lines and lyrical content.)

And, not gonna lie, I love watching the faces of westerners when the dan voice kicks in. The "WTAF!?" look just makes me laugh and laugh.
