Off Topic / Re: What's Bothering You? (The thread about what is bothering you.)

All high lvl bosses are psychopaths, or become one over time.

Mid bosses are a bit better, but they've got the bug for sure.

I don't think personality failures play much of a role in how we should evaluate our next steps in AI. Human beings can not rule- itself, we're at death's door with regards to the climate implosion.  AI, might have a shot at preserving our legacy.

Anyway, electricity isn't the biggest concern right now, if we don't deal with animal agriculture, there is no technology viable in the next 50 years to meaningfully remove CO2 / Methane.

Even if all industrial output stopped, which would put us back into the stone age, we would still hit 2.0-2.5C, that much is baked in.

Too rapid in fossil fuel reduction has also produced intensive short term warming swings (heatwaves), as it reduces the aerosol soot layer which is masking approximately 0.2C worth of existing warming.

You're bothered by that detail? I am bothered by almost everything there is about OpenAI.

ScarJo had been approached by OpenAI to do the voice for them. She had declined. Two days before the event, they asked again: indicating that they had the model ready.
Friends of ScarJo who know here voice better than anyone else said Sky sounded distinctly like her.
OpenAI did it. There is no question about it.

It's CEO has allegedly sexually abused his younger sister, force-fed her Zoloft and withheld her money for medical treatment.
There are numerous other signs and accounts of him being a narcissistic psychopath. Another controversy he is involved in is the cryptocurrency WorldCoin.

The AI that they want to build would require so vast resources that it would practically require its own power plants, which is utterly irresponsible in this time of climate change.

Massive copyright infringement and plagiarism. Training on the open Internet, requiring people top "opt out", despite regulations in many countries requiring companies to instead "opt in". Except when they don't care, and knowingly use content from pirate sites to train on, including illegal copies of e-books. (the "Books2" dataset)

OpenAI has been infiltrating bodies for "AI safety". They are trying to push things through before people in charge of legislation has got wind about what it is really about. Intentionally muddle the concepts of copyrights and plagiarism: (The way OpenAI works is not "fair use". Also, "fair use" applies only to copyright, not to plagiarism, and is not even a concept in many countries)

The team responsble for AI safety ("alignment") at OpenAI resigned a few days ago in protest against the board not giving them the ability to do their job.

BTW. I will be joining the PauseAI protest at Hötorget in Stockholm today at 17:00.

Did not know about the ceo wtf (except he is a ceo of a large company, I would never be surprised if they turn out to be a psychopath lol)

The copyright infringement is so obviously not fair use that it's made me realise that chatgpt and midjourney and these other platforms probably won't exist in the near future because of how many lawsuits have and will be coming their way.

this song is played out af to the point I hear it being bumped at a Safeway during mid-afternoon, BUT I still like the way it hits my ear. A lot of good tonal shifts, in that the beat doesn't drone on and bore you midway through like so many other played-out 'modern classics.'

This looks very cool. Is the PCB supporting QMK?


PCB is QMK and VIA compatible

This is really cool. I am not a 60 user but this might be the only 60 i get.

the viton strips on the top case is a neat idea, prolly provides some isolation from the btm case and adds some bounce.
the thickness of the top case is also nice, ive had problems with Glare tkl where the thickness is less and maybe contributes to the ping, and also maybe why using force break on glare tkl helps isloate the top case more. on the F1, the thickness of the top case matters less cuz again, viton strips on the top case provide some isolation.
overall good job!

Thanks boss!
Great! There's no choice, but I'm definitely in!

What do you mean by "Milkyway's first dual-color keycap"?
Means our first two-color keycaps, since we used to only do PBT heat-sublimation keycaps!

Do you mean doubleshot?
YES
