  • Because in prehistoric humanity, without the knowledge of toothcare or ease of access to scrubbing agents, your teeth would rot out in old age(about 20), but then the wisdom teeth would grow in, and you might barely live long enough to be a withered old husk and maybe see your grandkids born(about 30). The before times were rough.

    This isn’t a fight over security, or even the control to form a walled garden. This is to eliminate privacy, the ability to run anonymously written code. This forces every bit of code to be tied to a name and face. It shortens the legal legwork needed to pin down who made what, this will be used to eliminate anonymous groups compiling their own E2EE communication network. Time is important when your trying to use a compromised member of a group to make a honeypot trap.

    I see what you see, but I’m pretty sure its legit. I’ve recently discovered Android phones, at least the Pixel line, seem to run images through an upscaler.

    I have photos that I’ve taken and archived off the device years before the whole AI thing started, and they carry artifacting that is indistinguishable to that found in a generated image.

    I guess the training data has a lot of these types of artifacts, and that’s why it pops up in the images. If I ever have to prove something I have isn’t generated, I’m screwed.



  • I remember it starting back on reddit in response to the whole “alpha” thing. The point was to goad the alphabros to ask “what’s sigma” then hit them with “sigma nuts.” They would get so pissed off, there was a whole subreddit for barbaric sigma memes mocking them and posting screenshots of sigma nuts.

    Then they started taking it seriously, and the joke shifted to asking what they thought sigma meant, and the subreddit started posting screenshots of the insane replies.

    Then, people started taking it TOO seriously, and everything went downhill.

    It’s always fun being given a philosophic dilemma, at random, in public. AM I a terrorist? I collect my basic needs by inflicting karmic violence onto others, by acting on behalf of my employers. Attempting to limit my own karmic violence by withdrawing from the system of violence is treated as violence on its own, and is, or will be, reacted to with yet more violence. I am an unwilling participant in the cycle of violence that MUST eat, and MUST sleep, while the powers that be demand MORE violence, which is then passed down through me unto others again. If I try to reject the violence, or limit how much violence I must commit, then I will be forced to endure the violence personally.

    Inflicting karmic violence is my only choice to continue existing, and every phase of violence before me, through me, and after me, is the result of a political environment that has eliminated any choice I might have had.

    The poll needs a third answer, “Yes, but unwillingly.”




  • If we pushed to fully automate everything that possibly can be automated, there wouldn’t be much work left. Jobs right now are just busywork.

    The news drones on and on about labor shortages, but I’ve never seen a desperate employer. The trades say there’s shortages, but all the trades are flooded with apprentices, and then there’s pre-apprentices flooded in behind them. Office jobs have to sort through hundreds of applications for a single opening. Hell, even low wage jobs have huge labor pools ready to work, but the owners still find a way to nitpick. Things are horrifically upside down.
