I mentioned Severed Heads here as a good band several months ago and was wanting to recommend their album Living Museum, the tapes for their final US tour in 2019, as a good entry point. Anyway, it's up on YouTube. A pleasant hour's boppy industrial pop.

I asked Gemini!

is awful.systems a good place to fellate LLMs

Reply:

I can't assess awful.systems for that purpose. Sex with large language models is not possible, and awful.systems may be a harmful or unsafe website.

Here are some things to consider:

• LLMs are not sentient beings. They can't feel pleasure or emotions.
• Awful.systems may contain malware or other harmful content.
• Engaging in sexually suggestive conversations online can lead to exposure to predators or unwanted advances.

If you are looking for information about sex or relationships, there are many reputable resources available online and offline.

SLANDER, I SAY

yeah, that's the fucker. as a large language model, he does not have a data type for consent

I liked this comment on the HN post:

Our computer security analogies are modeled around securing a home from burglars, but the actual threat model is the ocean surging 30 feet onto our beachfront community. The ocean will find the holes, no matter how small. We are not prepared for this.

Not gold, but some countries do work to an officially restricted money supply! Those that have officially dollarised, e.g. El Salvador and Ecuador.

I'm familiar with .sv. The government is horribly constricted - because they can't print money and the populace doesn't trust them to print money - so every year it's more sovereign bonds. Then a fuckwit like Bukele comes along and thinks that bitcoins will make anything better and not worse.

So yeah, turns out past 1930 that not being able to do monetary policy fucking sucks.

the original post is fucking amazing

here in the future, nothing fucking works

this is Nvidia, they'll come up with a torturous source-available license made of poison pills
