Polymarket also just had the Serbian election at 71.5% Vučić a few hours before the results came out of him losing

Does anyone have any examples of AI produced videos that are meaningful/cool/interesting outside of them being produced by AI?

Speed is actually the thing stopping me using local models more. Qwen 3.8 27b is surprisingly capable, but spends a lot of time/tokens brute forcing problems until it gets it right. The longer task times mean that to fully utilize my attention I need more tasks running concurrently, and the increased context switching just feels bad and leads to me making worse decisions.

Yeah, screw enabling life changing medical research, won't someone please think of the investors' financial returns??

I originally read your comment as quite gatekeep-y and elitist. The article explained some of the "theory" behind certain things around music in a way that made sense to me, yet here was a professional telling me it was bad because it was bad.

However I've realised that "Music Theory" is a strictly defined term. If someone made an article called "Intro to Algebraic Geometry", and it was actually about geometric algebra, it'd be really annoying, even if to a uninformed person the meaning behind those terms would seem interchangeable.

To be clear, Wild also doesn't do incremental linking yet but plans to in the future

There are definitely more ethical porn sites, e.g. ones that will take down revenge porn vs ones that won't.

Yeah I recently tried the coding harness that's recommended here, Pi, in a bubble wrap sandbox and was horrified to learn that it spams multiple warnings at you if you don't give it write access to its own config/extension folder... Everyone else is rawdogging it I guess.

While this is still bad, If you watch the video, the officers announce themselves and enter with empty hands... it's very different from videos of "raids" by US police that I've seen.

There's a lot of evidence showing that gambling as a child leads to gambling problems as an adult, and loot boxes are just gambling aimed to a large degree at children.

Valve games are even worse for this because Steam trading allows 3rd party sites to sell cosmetics directly for cash, and some of these cosmetics are worth tens of thousands of dollars. It's just children gambling money but with a thin veneer of video game over the top.

> The idea that babies feel pain is only somewhat recently accepted

This is crazy to me, but I still believe it's very unlikely plants experience conscious suffering

> Would you feel some way, or [...] chew [...] with the indifference

I'd probably be upset, accept that I needed to eat plants or starve, try to minimize the pain I did cause, and then grow numb to the knowledge over time because I couldn't practically do anything about it

I think you can pose many hypothetical scenarios where I'd be unsure what to do or do the selfish thing, but to me the important thing is that the world we do exist in has lots of "bang for your buck" choices like: trading getting to taste meat for animals not having to go through factory farms

> play the same game .. where some line is drawn

> Things could be better but they also could be worse

> the moral arguments are sort of silly and illogical

You can use these to justify literally anything

> Slaughter all the lettuce you want

Yeah because we don't have compelling evidence that lettuce experiences anything comparable to conscious suffering, and the only alternative to not eating plants is dying

Any time I've tried an "abliterated" model, heretic or other, it has always damaged the capabilities of the original model and will still often refuse or produce garbage at a lot of "unsafe" requests.

Every piece of KDE software I've tried has been buggy to the point that it's now a red flag to me: Spectacle (silently failed to copy/paste), krunner (refused to close), SDDM (refused to login), Dolphin (ffmpegthumbnailer loops lagged out whole system, SMB bugs), System Monitor (wrong information), KWallet (signal fails to open, data loss)
