"Former gifted" just means some adults used to tell em they gonna make it big because they're special. And then in adulthood they struggle, either because they aren't actually gifted or the "gift" is just autism and nobody cares now that they're adults.

Well "Afghans" doesn't really mean much. It's not really a collective group with any great unifying force. Too many different aspirations. Many clearly no minding who's in power. It's nowhere near as extreme as the situation in Israel. Definitely don't wanna downplay the mess that are the Afghan conflicts. But it's just not comparable at all.

Iran has plenty of money and guns to pass around. Proxy wars are the main course for the modern history of the middle east. I find saying that they won't find a way to bite back extremely ignorant of the reality on the ground and all of human history really... Most revolts were made by desperate people that had literally nothing on their own, either had to receive it from a third party of questionable intent or steal it.

Definitely a proportionate response. Doing their best to reproduce carpet bombing in a world where carpet bombing no longer works without using a nuke. Takes a lot of effort, effort better spent elsewhere...

Assuming I'm an android fan for pointing out that Apple does shady PR. I literally mention that Apple devices have their selling point. And it isn't UNMATCHED PERFORMANCE or CUTTING EDGE TECHNOLOGY as their adds seems to suggest. It's a polished experience and beautiful presentation; that is unmatched. Unlike the hot mess that is android. Android also has its selling points, but this reply is already getting long. Just wanted to point out your pettiness and unwillingness to read more than a sentence.

Big leap for OpenAI, as in a kind of ML model they haven't explored yet. Not that big for AI in general as others have done the same with similar result. Until they can make graphs where they look exceptionally better compared to other models than their own, it's not that much of a breakthrough.

Dang, OpenAI just pulled an Apple. Do something other people have already done with the same results (but importantly before they made a big fuss about it), claim it's their innovation, give it a bloated name so people imagine it's more than it is and produce a graph comparing themselves to themselves, hoping nobody will look at the competition.

Just like Apple, they have their own selling point, but instead they seem to prefer making up stuff while forgetting why people use em.

On a side note they also pulled an Elon. Where's my AI companion that can comment on video in realtime and sing to me??? Ya had it "working" "live" a couple months ago, WHERE IS IT?!?

Why are right wing parties obsessed with AI posters? And like HORRIFICALLY BAD AI posters? They're creepy as hell. In my country too, it's just unsettling. I guess it's easier than a photoshoot and allows you to make any obscene shit you want... Or just straight up lie.

Looks like ya technically correct. I hate that there's little to no official literature on this, looking anything credible up is a pain.

It says a lot how the right keeps spamming us with AI images when making absolutely ridiculous shit up.

After visiting America and seeing how much they celebrate assholes I'm less and less surprised. If you're standing in line and a car pulls up just to rev its engine as loud as possible, here in Europe we get mad at the fucking obnoxious asshole. Never ever did I want to disassociate from a crowd faster than when surrounded by Americans losing their marbles at seeing an expensive car be loud.

It's a tiny example, but it has to start somewhere. Glorifying shit is just wrong.

Meat is expensive. (lemmy.world)
submitted 2 months ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

No but like seriously, why are vegan and vegetarian options always MORE expensive at restaurants. Whenever I cook my self, the meat is BY FAR the most expensive part of any meal. Meanwhile stuff like soy strips are DIRT CHEAP, not to mention they last basically forever!

The canteen I go to for lunch actually sells the meatless meals for 2/3 of the price, always a taunting reminder. Like hell yea, that's how ya convert me!
