You can train text to speech but it is a bit of work. Prepackaged? Nope.

All or nothing perspectives with AI and zealous hate. It’s helped me through my toughest year yet of physical disability and social isolation. It has improved my Python, CPP, and writing bash scripts. I’ve used it with cooking ideas, and finding products. It has helped me discover an entire science fiction universe of my own creation and helps me explore subtle nuances. It has helped me gain a much better understanding of the variety of human functional thought and psychology, especially in ways where other people may not understand my abstractive thoughts and connections across different spaces. It has also shown me why I get frustrated at people with different functional thought. The bad attitudes and emotional perspectives suck and can be depressing here. That is my biggest pet peeve this year. I’ve responded to it the most, and I’ve disconnected from here to go do other things the most from people with a bad attitude on AI.

I like “mouth breather” from Stranger Things it has the right sound and pacing to make a good insult but doubles back as a wtf thinker moment. In an emo moment where the person wants to auto respond to everything in argument, it is funny to manipulatively force them to deny it, then call them out on how stupid they are for saying they do not breathe.

I think China is pushing them both, in private, and Iran, probably Türkiye to take action in Cypress too.

The only reason to pour so much money into semiconductors in the USA is because Taiwan and South Korea are in major trouble soon. Take Taiwan and South Korea, that’s most of the semiconductor industry and the entire cutting edge. Intel is falling apart as is and Boeing is absolute garbage as well. Those two are a large chunk of real US tech edge and they can’t even keep the doors on, make a two way trip to space, launch a competitive rocket, make generational improvement increments, stand behind years worth of defective products, or factual marketing and specifications. Take Samsung and TSMC and the USA is in the stone ages of 20 year old silicon tech.

They haven’t disappeared because they haven’t been genocided yet.

Clearly the majority here misunderstand the post. Or this is a vote farm action. No sane informed person can support this post. This is about the crusader mass murdering genocidal Israeli zealots settling Gaza after their Auschwitz-like treatment of millions of Palestinians.

The only normal people are people you have not taken the time to get to know yet.

I’m a better person with Adderall. I feel more like myself, like I escape a frustrating fog. I’ve been on it for ~14 years. It doesn’t seem to have the same effects on everyone.

Everything in life is ultimately brain chemistry and addictions. Most of the drugs in our chemistry soup are the substances the human body synthesises on its own. Biology is a funny thing. It can handle immense complexity, but can struggle with precision.

If you have the self awareness to seek out and optimise your brain or body chemistry where it might be lacking, I’d argue that you are the better person than someone that suffers through the deficiencies of their natural biology.

However, humans have a very difficult time assessing their own brain chemistry objectively without biases. It is both harmful and unsafe to self diagnose or self medicate without the assistance of someone that is trained to objectively asses your situation and needs.

Not really, when you consider the big picture of how there is no evidence of any illegal voting and removing voters is a Republican agenda because inconvenience is a tool for a party that never gets the popular vote directly. See criminal gerrymandering, and the anti democratic electoral collage. Take a real direct popular vote without these criminal biases and do so with ranked voting; Republicans will cease to exist.

You will likely find such a system is ineffective because popular is still only a very limited niche of the total audience. Most people do not vote or actively participate.

Demographics are way more complicated than they first appear. When I was a buyer for a bike shop, the numbers were surprising. Around 65% of my business was all entry level stuff even though all three shops were high end road race and XC. It is easy to believe one understands the audience, but in my experience I only really trust solid numbers and data.

That said, a reputation based system of social hierarchy exists already in academia.

You would need to assess the compromises involved too. Who is not going to post what because of this form of bias. I’m one of those people that will post lots of oddball stuff the piques my curiosity. I would like some engagement, but I don’t care or focus on posting stuff that everyone will like. If some bias takes away all of my engagement for some popularity metric, I migrate somewhere else. I find most popular content humdrum and uninteresting.

This one bugs me too. I want to differentiate!

I say howdy to gauge people’s initial reaction when I first meet them. Their reaction to the corny and outdated term is telling about their mental picture of the world. It is the only time I use the word.

The honor guard in Russia look like they have been gassed by a nerve agent when Czar Putin of Muscovy passes. It’s like a toddler’s cringe dramatization you smile at while holding in the FML sentiment. Seems I’m in FML company with lefty. Probably got gassed for that glance in the picture too.

IMO, the real question is how to preserve it in deep time. Where is accessible enough but also protected? The best place would probably be a location that is heavily contaminated by toxic or nuclear waste. Those will likely remain time capsules in the near term, but remain as focal points in deep time. Find a spot that is likely to survive continental drift, the next super continent, and countless ice ages. I dare you. Do it! Make the ultimate geo cache.

This is the Republican plan to steal the election. When does the civil war start? I give it 6 weeks before the first casualties pile in.

Trump is such an incompetent clown that he has a comedian thrash on US citizens in a US territory as a bigoted racist warm up act for his rallies. What do you think.

skipped the zombie apocalypse

No. AFAIK the primary issue is that microcode is not open

I don’t find myself making spontaneous buying decisions for frivolous nonsense in my life in general when I stick around here. All of my purchases are due to my needs and research only.

Physical disability with social isolation gives one a potential ability to more deterministically decipher where and how interactions influence them. I have less inputs and influences and tend to remember what was suggested or peripheral to my intentions. I got into a lot of stuff over the last 10 years that, when I look back, I really don’t know why I did them. I know my surface reasoning, but like, why was I following those people and spaces in the first place–that kind of meta logic perplexed me. When I quit YouTube and switched to newpipe/reddit, those random tangents were drastically reduced. When I quit reddit they went away entirely. It is entirely speculation, and probably borderline paranoia, but I probably only bought stuff on AliEx because it seemed like everyone on YT was buying from there. I can’t say it was all bad or unwanted or anything like that. I can say I got stuff I didn’t need or use.

I still explore new interests and projects I feel like trying when I see them here, but I have yet to feel influenced in a way that hints at manipulative intentions.

I’ve seen people try with disingenuous arguments that have 5-10 upvotes instantaneously. I’ve seen posts that have supporting corpo replies seconds after posting or where a typical type of comment for Lemmy gets a large scale negative response quickly that is obviously not genuine or typical behavior. Unlike reddit, these seem so blatantly obvious here that I block the posters and commenter immediately. Blocking here is rather effective and blocking a lot of users makes for a pretty pleasant experience unlike anything I ever had on reddit. This is my only outlets to contact other humans and I feel rather balanced with it and self care. That is more than I can say about reddit.
