Even if it's negative now?

Yeah I had 3 shots, but the last one was two years ago. Had thought about getting a 4th one for months but there is no official recommendation for a 4th shot for people under 60 in my country so I didn't. I actually regretted that now, it was pretty nasty. But yeah, completely without vaccines it probably would have been horrible so I'm really glad I got those.

I had the sweating/freezing thing too, didn't put it into the diagram because I thought it was a side effect of the fever.

There actually is a faint control line. I'm pretty sure it was so "positive" that there were not enough color particles left for the C line.

That's not cute, the dog clearly has some kind of problem.

MKBHD made an interesting video about this already a year ago:

Yes, that's exactly what I had in mind. The characters need to have their story and their intentions hard coded. But using that as a basis, how cool would it be to have an actual natural conversation with them where you can just ask them questions that come to your mind instead of having to choose from a set of pre defined questions. It would certainly require some re-imagination of RPGs but that wouldn't actually hurt at all.

I have no idea if this could work anytime soon, but at some point I'm sure it'll be possible.

An RPG where all the characters are LLM-powered with their story baked in, so you can actually have a free conversation with them and they'll be basically chatGPT pretending they're an actual real character. Bonus points for it being a VR game.

Next iteration: a game that's generated by an AI while you play it so every playthrough is absolutely completely different.

I can't wait for AI-powered games, to be honest.

Huh, I don't have that on my S22

Is it just me or did the recommendation algorithm become much worse a few years ago? I think there was a big update at some point and it's sucked ever since. If feels like it remembers about the last 10 videos I watched. You were interested in topic XYZ a few months ago and there is lots of new content about it? Sure you don't want to know anything about it!

I've had exactly this discussion with a friend recently. I share your opinion, he shared what seems to be the view of the majority here. I just don't see what the qualitative difference between the brain and a data-based AI would be. It almost seems to me like people have problems accepting the fact that they're not more than biological machines. Like there must be something that makes them special, that gives them some sort of "soul" even when it's in a non-religious and non-spiritual way. Some qualitative difference between them and the computer. I don't think there necessarily is one. Look at how many things people get wrong. Look at how bad we are at simple logic sometimes. We have a better sense of some things like plausibility because we have a different set of experiences that is rooted in our physical life. I think it's entirely possible that we will be able to create robots that are more similar to human beings than we'd like them to be. I even think it's possible that they would have qualia. I just don't see why not.

I know that there is a debate about machine learning AI and symbolic AI. I'm not an expert to be fair, but I have not seen any possible explanation as to why only symbolic AI would be "true" AI, even though many people seem to believe that.

Ah okay. Well maybe GPT 4 is better than I thought. I'm kind of happy to be wrong, it's really impressive if it's real.

I honestly kind of doubt that. It's too good.

I think green bubbles (non iPhone) means it's using SMS so it can cost people money to send messages, especially images which would be sent as MMS I guess.

I'm an Android user though so I don't really know. Also I'm in Europe where nobody cares and just uses Signal, WhatsApp or Telegram.

I have no idea if they exist for parchment too. I got one like this:

A kitchen paper holder that you can mount to a wall, shelf, etc, and that has a stopping mechanism so that it allows you to rip some paper off the roll with just one hand. Absolute kitchen game changer.

I need Lightroom and I've tried Darktable but it just doesn't cut it.

Can you run Adobe software via proton? As soon as that works I'll be on Linux.

As a woman: I'd love to use bigger phones - as soon as they give me pockets I can fit them into.

It's one of the reasons I find foldables so interesting. The Google Pixel Fold has the perfect form factor. If only it wasn't so expensive...

That's really neat, thank you!
