  I had heard Kubo and the Two Strings was good but I assumed that was just praise for the stop motion. But no, the writing on this is excellent. The comedy in particular is laugh a minute (when they want) without killing the pacing.

  I get that it's more realistic for Nagatoro's rougher edges to round off as the relationship develops because nobody would put up with how she acted in the first few episodes forever. But holy smokes is it misunderstanding who this show would appeal to. I don't even think she'd be a tsundere anymore if they got a season 3. Why call the show "Please don't bully me, Miss X" if she's gonna agree to those terms?

  Fuck James Talarico. We need a 15 point Blue wave to sweep in good Democrats while people like him and Acton lose despite the wave. Nothing less will teach Democrats a lesson.

  I commissioned Jess Kae to #TrickcalsYourWaifu my first gacha waifu, Tamamo Cat from the Fate franchise. She's so cute. #Trickcal #FateGrandOrder

  I will never understand internet culture. Having finally seen Nimona, how is she not the most popular character ever? She's a shape shifting bad girl goofball who turns into a kaiju. What else could you possibly want?

  Just watched Wolf Walkers. It's a good movie, even if they toned down how awful the real Oliver Cromwell was by only depicting him as an evil incompetent bloodthirsty misogynistic zealot.

  So, turns out, all of this progress these models have been making over the years doesn't come from more training data, better algorithms, or more powerful hardware. They've just got humans on the other end looking at common questions it gets wrong and tweaking responses to those specific questions. https://www.404media.co/inside-project-lily-the-humans-reading-your-chatgpt-chats/

  I watched K-Pop Demon Hunters with my mom. She was meh about the movie but says she loved the music. I know nothing about K-pop. Does anyone have suggestions?

  Richard Dawkins has melted his brain so badly that he thinks AI is people. A sufficiently sycophantic chatbot is apparently more than enough to fool that dumbass. Perhaps most amusingly, one of the first things he does upon recognizing the humanity of the bot is rename it Claudia and start using feminine pronouns. His homophobia is so out of control that he's uncomfortable with a bot flattering him unless he can imagine a vagina onto it. https://archive.is/6RdK9

  Is there an effort to create a recommender algorithm for the Fediverse using TF-IDF weighted LSA or LDA exclusively trained on the public posts of people who opt-in? Those are old school LLMs that have decent performance on narrow tasks from the before times. They can't be used for gen AI crap but can be labelers or to recommend similar content. I imagine such a tool would be useful for creating feeds on the Fediverse to aid in discoverability.

  I am a simple gig delivery driver. If a customer gives me a 20% tip on a $200+ order, I will absolutely follow diner instructions to sneak into a building through a secret door propped open questionably. I'll probably make more than you will selling my worthless kidneys.

  I hear the kids are calling it "Ressikan fluting" #StarTrek RE: https://cyberpunk.lol/users/vantablack/statuses/116491316337625105

  Learning Curve is such a terrible episode of #Babylon5. It's such egregious copaganda that I genuinely thought it was set up for the Rangers being the big bad of the season or that by fighting shadows, the Rangers had become shadows. But no. It's just copaganda.

  Oh jeeze, the EX and S stages of this event are hard even with a well built account. I can't imagine what it'd be like for people who don't have tons of niche operators built up all the way. #Arknights

  It is sad to see how many neocritters I can't find the creators of anymore. I used to have the usernames of so many of them but a bunch have left those usernames behind. It's sad.

  I think the new #StarFox looks fine. Does that make me a bad #furry? IMO, Peppy is the best looking of the bunch. Slippy is jarring but works. Falco is probably the least animal-like but I think he's still solid. I like Fox least but he's still fine.
