Ah, dammit. That’s a pity.

So relatable, amiright fellow kids?

Bill Gates is like, one of the least harmful of the billionaire clique. At least that’s the image I have of him… I’m a notoriously poor judge of character though, so what do I know.

Doesn’t the decrease signal an improvement for Russia? (unfortunately)

The current generation of AMD processors and motherboards have this “feature” where the first time you boot up, nothing shows on screen for about a minute, sometimes two. Because it’s calibrating the memory or something stupid like that. With nothing on the fucking screen.

It’s obviously some hurried fix for a problem they encountered late in the development process of the AM5 generation, but Jesus Christ is it horribly implemented. The most tense moment when building a PC and they thought making it act as if it’s broken for two minutes is good UX.

TIL how to make explosives.

I did skim a bunch of articles first, all with the same info, but they were too long-winded or paywalled to link to. This summary seemed just right…

From Google AI:

In 1990, the year the film was released, the actual house from Home Alone was purchased for $875,000. Economists from the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago have determined that, at that price, the home was only affordable to the top 1% of Chicago households at the time.

To afford the house in 1990 (assuming they spent no more than 30% of their income on housing), the McCallister family would have needed a household income of about $305,000, which is approximately $665,000 in 2022 dollars.

The house last sold in 2012 for $1.58 million and again in early 2025 for $5.5 million.

Brings a sack of smelting coal.

Frighten? Faze? Ftraumatize?

You’re just improvising bullshit now…

It doesn’t matter who’s right, it only matters who’s left.

Went to the biggest theater in the country, fancy place, fancy people. Girl tried to open a puffy bag of popcorn by smashing it between her hands (like you’d do in a barf bag prank). Loud bang. Popcorn everywhere.

I didn’t really hold it against her, but she felt so bad about the embarrassment she hated the sight of me forever from them on (we had common friends so we kept meeting many years after).

Yes, and the highest point in this route was 230m above sea level, requiring 22.8x the uphill ‘push’ that atmosphere could provide.

But even if the highest point was below 10m and friction was not an issue, you would need hundreds of kilometers of perfectly airtight ‘vacuumed’ pipes. If air leaks into the pipes somewhere along their length, the flow stops.

If you had to pick just one, who do you think is more important to “get”, the billionaires that funded and protected her and Jeffry’s scheme, or her particularly?

Re-imprisonment or the dropping of protections could make her talk.

If she’s out of prison she dies within a year, killed either by an assassin from one of the billionaires, or by a helpful intelligent volunteer like yourself.

You mean eliminate the one person that could still believably implicate the people most at fault?.. That’s what you hope for?

This makes no sense. Salads really do have nuts sometimes, whilst I’ve never heard of bees having steak.

Except the first phrase and last paragraph, it was AI. Honestly, it feels like OP is taunting us with such a vague question. We don’t even know why they dislike AI.

I’m not an AI lover. It has its place and it’s a genuine step forward. Less than what most proponents think it’s worth, more than what detractors do.

I only use it myself for documentation on the framework I program in, and it’s reasonably good for that, letting me extract more info quicker than reading through it. Otherwise haven’t used it much.

What are some good reasons why AI is bad?

There are legitimate reasons people worry about AI. Here are some of the strongest, clearly framed concerns:

1. Bias and unfair decisions

AI systems often learn from biased data and can unintentionally discriminate—against certain races, genders, ages, or socioeconomic groups—in hiring, lending, housing, policing, and more.

2. Lack of transparency

Many AI models act as “black boxes,” making decisions that are hard to explain. This creates problems when the stakes are high (medical diagnosis, legal decisions, etc.).

3. Privacy risks

AI can analyze huge amounts of personal data, track behavior, or identify people through facial recognition—often without explicit consent.

4. Job displacement

Automation threatens certain categories of work, particularly routine or repetitive jobs. Without proper planning, this can increase inequality and unemployment.

5. Misinformation and deepfakes

AI makes it easier to create convincing fake audio, video, or text. This can undermine trust in media, fuel propaganda, and destabilize democratic processes.

6. Weaponization

AI can be used in autonomous weapons, cyberattacks, targeted surveillance, or manipulation—raising serious security and ethical issues.

7. Overreliance and loss of human skills

As AI does more tasks, people may become too dependent, reducing critical thinking, creativity, or expertise in certain fields.

8. Concentration of power

Powerful AI tools tend to be controlled by a few big companies or governments, potentially leading to monopolies, inequality, and reduced individual autonomy.

9. Alignment and control risks

Advanced AI systems may behave in unexpected or harmful ways if their goals aren’t perfectly aligned with human values—even without malicious intent.

10. Environmental impact

Training large AI models consumes significant energy and resources, contributing to carbon emissions.

If you want, I can also provide reasons why AI is good, help you construct an argument for a debate, or analyze specific risks more deeply.

Were you looking for this kind of reply? If you can’t express why you have an opinion maybe your opinion is not well founded in the first place. (Not saying it’s wrong, just that it might not be justified/objective.)
