The only one I visit at all is Shoppers Drug Mart, and that one's not going to be an issue to cut out. Kinda tweaked that my local post office is operating out of it, though, and directly funneling public dollars into Galen Weston's pockets.

I remember people trying to do it as a kid by putting their noses in the books, and it confused the hell out of me. But then when I'd explain how to do it, they acted like I was muttering moon speak.

But what I do is just make repeating shapes overlap. Like, have you ever made your fingers overlap (by crossing your eyes)? Or played with the double images of things near your face while looking at something in the background?

You just do that so that neighbouring copies of image elements overlap.

This isn't both concerning and also totally in line with every move Gargon's made along the way. Nope nope nope!

Yeah. They have the right to rule, and ruling means doing whatever you want and forcing others to do it too. Anything that gets in the way of that -- including not making government -- is illegitimate and must be crushed.

Honestly the most impressive part of LLMs is the tokenizer that breaks down the request, not the predictive text button masher that comes up with the response.

Yes, exactly! It's ability to parse the input is incredible. It's the thing that has that "wow" factor, and it feels downright magical.

Unfortunately, that also makes people intuitively trust its output.

It “knows” as in it has access to the information and the ability to provide the right info for the right context.

It doesn't, though, any more than you have access to the information in a pile of 10 million shredded documents.

The whole point of exporting education is to make money for Canada

Hey look! I found it! It's the whole motherfucking problem!

This is treating both education and people as commodities. Maybe we shouldn't be thinking this way.

At all.

Ever.

Tge system moves people around at the cost of some dying. That may not be your intention, but it's what the system does.

Not shutting down the system as soon as you realize it operates on blood means you're ok with the amount of blood it's consuming.

It's an accidental misspelling of Kichea, and was my Eve Online character's first name. The misspelling made it unique for many years, until a kitchen sink company came along and started using it

There are no platforms on the Fediverse that do that. There are servers that are refusing and will refuse to communicate with other servers, and that's their right. If you don't like their policies, you can pick a different server.

Your power as a user is to select your administrators, by selecting whose server you want to log in to. You don't get to decide whose content they mirror. If they don't want to host content from Meta, or from Mastodon.social, or from anywhere else, they don't have to, and you shouldn't be able to force them to.

This isn't a mainframe and client system. There's no "fediverse" server out there that the different instances are gating. There's just 10 thousand partial mirrors, each offering local access to that mirrored content.

If you want complete and total control over what content is being hosted where ever you're logged in, host your own server. That's your other option.

Do you know who isn't thinking that way?

The millennial conservatives, right-libertarians, neoliberals, and fascists.

No, I don't think they have. Socialists just disagree with liberals that liberalism is "left" or "progressive".
