    AI: The Rise of the Machines... Or Just a Lot of Overhyped Chatbots?

    I literally have no idea what a slack text is. DMs are thing I've heard of but don't think I've sent one in my life. The world some of you live in is so weird to me. (I do see the concern you're expressing here, and come to think of it, it would be pretty hilarious. I am not advocating the...

    The Fast Food Thread

    All double burgers would be better as single burgers. Fight me, rage against it, but at the end of the day you know I'm right. A QP deluxe with bacon, thats the burger if you have to eat McDonalds burgers for some reason, presumably because there isnt a Carls Jr nearby.

    Knock at the Cabin (2023)

    I think its funny how Ossoi just posts obvious AI text in every thread, but people still thought they had room to make fun of my prediction that soon the entire internet will be nothing but AI text. I do however enjoy the lack of bad puns or dog references in the AI text posts, thats a nice...

    AI: The Rise of the Machines... Or Just a Lot of Overhyped Chatbots?

    and thats how we'll recognize real human text - machine text will be uniformly high quality. For a time thats how the few remaining humans will recognize each other in the AI text dystopia. until the machines learn how to shitpost, then God help us all.

    AI: The Rise of the Machines... Or Just a Lot of Overhyped Chatbots?

    I wonder what the real AI is like if the one they put out for the public to play with is this good. And I wonder what fraction of text I've read in the past couple years was AI generated. Soon it will approach 100%, since human communication on the web seems to have devolved to a...

    /sigh Blood spots arent embryos. (We don't have roosters so what the fuck is all this talk about embryos anyway? ) The chickens arent getting more calories now, they're getting a different food type. Its clearly some specific nutrient rather than total calories. Blood spots have nothing to do...

    You are wrong about every aspect of this post I take that back, your use of the word "eggs" was correct.

    Renfield (2023)

    what in the actual fuck. Sounds like a super funny premise. The trailer starts off promising. Then, that Awkwa Fina thing shows up. As the love interest. Shes not even believable as the love interest for a dude who eats bugs. What the fuck is actually wrong with hollywood?

    Homesteading and Hobby Farm/Ranch

    I've posted before about blood spots in eggs. We were running about 10-25% of eggs with blood spots. (Never the white eggs, only the brown eggs) We stumbled across the cure. Its corn. Just regular old cracked corn. We'd previously fed our chickens laying pellets plus table scraps, and they...

    No, almost all NY (Long Island, in the Hamptons.) Ranged from little cafes with basic diner type food to a couple fancy ass Hamptons restaurants with Mediterranean influenced menus. Also did a short time in a chain restaurant in VA to save up some cash for a used piece of shit car. I guess 6...

    Gravy's Cooking Thread

    I cooked my way through college. Cooking for a living is the farthest thing from relaxing -- its art under pressure on a strict time table where chaos constantly tries to intervene and fuck up your timing. It was exhilarating sometimes but far from relaxing. Most career chefs I knew were...

    Everquest Confessions

Then shortly after EQ died Graffes and The Safehouse turned into these absolutely bizarre Far Left extremist communites. It seemed like it happened overnight but I guess it probably took...

    it'd be neat if there was a way to enter orders for trades without seeing your total account balance (obviously cash available for trade would still need to be available). Like a separate login page that takes you only to the trades page and doesnt allow access to the total maybe this belongs...

    While I can appreciate a good "the markets are complex" dodge as much as the next guy, I was pretty specifically asking about the sudden drop this morning when nat gas inventories were released. The weather didnt suddenly warm up at that exact moment :) I get it, its complex, I was just...

    Investing General Discussion

    I know market prices don't fully depend on news events, and its at least partially random, but shouldnt lower natgas inventories than expected lead to rising prices rather than a sudden drop? Is there some kind of "clever", bad is good, fed will pivot, backwards thinking going on here?

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    No, its trolling, and its hilarious. Everybody, when they learn that someone has deliberately parked far away from anyone else because they're so worried their precious little snowflake car may get a scratch, has a little laugh at their expense. Only some people think quickly enough to go park...

    I'm enjoying it, the fish out of water moments are the best parts and I wish there were more of them. I actually kind of think they're under selling that part. Dude goes from never having seen a smartphone to effortlessly navigating everything on smartphone apps in like 1 episode. Fun show...

    I've been eating Taco Bell my whole life - it is by far, my fast food of choice. I've never understood what kind of weak ass stomach a person has to have, that taco bell upsets their belly. Its not fine cuisine, and its not authentic Mexican food, but its just food. It doesnt mess up a...

    Still waiting for that historical evidence of Nuns vs Indian girls BDSM. You seem so sure, you must have some evidence. It couldnt possibly be just a lifetime of ridiculous brainwashing that Indians = Noble Savage and Catholics = bad pedos. Nope, you're a critical thinker whose opinion is...

    Ep 2, we got more forced bathing while nuns watch. Then one of the nuns starts molesting the girl in the tub. Then the other nun comes over and beats her with a stick. Sorry bros but if you think is this is even adjacent to our timeline you're delusional. This is a bad Handmaids Tale remake set...

    The number of people who share netflix subs instead of just buying one baffles me. I mean its not like I'm opposed to watching TV for free or something, its not theft or piracy or whatever bullshit they want to call it. Its just cheating on a subscription, who cares. The thing is, its what...

    You're hilariously wrong about just about every word of that ridiculous post EXCEPT, you are correct that people who try to get off the plane before people who are seating in rows ahead of them, are subhuman pieces of shit. paraphrased slightly

    I dunno man ep 1 goes pretty fucking hard on the Noble Savage and Evil White Religious People angle. I don't get why TV writers all have these weird BDSM related fetishes and feel the need to project them into their shows. That ridiculous bath scene could have been straight out of Handmaids...
