No, but if you're not voting for whoever the Dem candidate is, you're the one promoting fascism and an end to worker rights at this juncture, so… ¯(ツ)_/¯
OK, so you can criticize real good. What's your actual, legal plan to switch Democratic candidates at such a late date? Everyone loves to criticize Biden and play fantasy football about who they would pick, but as near as I can tell, the only other person who could legally be chosen is Kamala Harris.
Who is already on the ticket and will take over if something does happen to Biden. Oh, and if you think putting a black, female candidate up against Trump is suddenly going to win hearts and minds, then I have a Nigerian prince I'd like to put you in touch with for a small finders fee.
Actually, I am pretty sure this is a Russian bot account anyway, but what the heck, let's see what your response is.
Oh yeah, it would have all turned out much better under Trump! /s
Seriously though, he's had a ridiculous congress to attempt to work with and he's still gotten quite a few things done. Restarted FCC and FDA at their jobs of actually regulating. Infrastructure bills. Student loan relief. Airline accountability. Wiping out non-compete clauses by companies. Huge economic recovery from the hole Trump had dug for us.
All the people in here complaining they don't like their choices. Holy fuck, those are the choices. You don't get to change them in under half a year from the election, lol. We've already had the primaries. We have two old candidates. One is old and has been running the country successfully for nearing 4 years. One is a convicted felon with convictions ranging from fraud to sexual assault. Both have age-related health issues, but only one is promising to try and bring about the end of democracy in this country via Project 2025 if elected.
If you want to change your choices next time, support some form of ranked voting in your state next time so that you can vote for the wild progressive candidate, but also rank the one you think is likely to win under that.
This is hilarious. The dude is running the country quite well right at this moment. Stop buying into the BS hype the press is trying to foment for click-bait profits.
He's running the freaking country right now and has been for the last 3 and a half years. The "he's old" crowd don't seem to get that he's old and effective?
Because if not, getting a scratch on the side of your ear doesn't change the fact he's been not only tried but convicted of sexual assault, election tampering and fraud. Juries and judges got to look at the actual evidence (not the lies he spews on a minute-by-minute basis) and found him guilty.
I mean… what's wrong with stuff like the Fediverse just gradually strangling the commercially-driven internet? I pay a couple bucks a month to a number of different Fediverse providers and if everyone does that, they'll likely be able to stay self-sufficient and community-oriented. I honestly don't mind paying websites directly in that fashion as long as my data is portable and not for sale, whereas I know that if I let most commercial websites have my data, they will sell it to whomever and however many times they are capable of, all while enshitifying the user experience on their website as much as possible without making everyone leave completely.
It's the most frustrating business model possible and why I refuse to give them any more traction than they already have.
Can't answer to Tor—haven't even tried it in years, but I know on Windows, Firefox totally ignores the whole "reopen tabs on restart" pref if you close the last window via the red X in the corner. You have to use control-shift-Q or show menus and select File->Quit if you're going to quit it in a way it understands as requesting you to reopen the tabs again next launch.
Putin's chaos unit is outdoing themselves this election. And apparently the NYT are playing on Putin's team this time too.
The Republicans can get together behind a convicted rapist and fraudster with his own dementia and age issues, because they are capable of voting as a fucking block. As Democrats, we have to be able to do that too by ALL showing up at the polls and voting Biden. It's not rocket science! At 55% voter turnout, Trump wins. At 60%, Biden wins, but barely. At 65% voter turn out, he wins by a wide margin. FFS, just show up and vote.
The man has been running the country successfully for 3.5 years so far and worst case, Kamela takes over mid-season. And since she's the only candidate that could access the election fund and she's already on the ticket, what even is the point of these idiots trying to change horses mid-stream because they can't see the big picture and stick with a plan? Argh, this makes me so mad…
If you turn on resist fingerprinting then supposedly yes. It does pass the test with fingerprint.com then. Assuming you’re using a VPN of course.
I’ve been running with resist fingerprinting enabled for about a year and aside from the annoyance of having all your new windows spawn at a very small fixed size, the only major issue is knowing that for some websites to work you may have to enable HTML5 canvas for them. (It’s an icon that will appear in the location bar and you will know to look for if things that are supposed to be graphics in the web page are just a bunch of striped boxes instead.)
All the Gen-Zers made me get it because they were loathe to communicate on the elderly platform of Twitter (even though they were all on Periscope). But of course, now they’ve largely moved on to god knows where and I still throw down the occasional sunset pic for the ones that show up a couple times a week.
She would have been amazing as a president, but if you really want to trigger a red wave of insane Trump voters foaming at the mouth about "her emails!" bringing back Hillary would definitely be the way to do it.
BitWarden provides some encrypted storage on their paid tiers. I think it's very small, like 1GB, but it's E2E.
Apple iCloud storage is actually E2E too if you turn on Advanced Data Protection. (Note that not all iCloud features are E2E, like email, for example.) And the price is pretty comparable too. Naturally this works a lot better if you're on a Mac, but just FYI.
I totally agree that both seem to imply intent, but IMHO hallucinating is something that seems to imply not only more agency than an LLM has, but also less culpability. Like, "Aw, it's sick and hallucinating, otherwise it would tell us the truth."
Whereas calling it a bullshit machine still implies more intentionality than an LLM is capable of, but at least skews the perception of that intention more in the direction of "It's making stuff up" which seems closer to the mechanisms behind an LLM to me.
I also love that the researchers actually took the time to not only provide the technical definition of bullshit, but also sub-categorized it too, lol.
So you don't give a shit whether fascism wins? Cool cool, cool cool.
