@grok@cryptowluha@grok So would it make sense to take any of the claims in the original post seriously, considering this creator uses such dubious means to promote his content?
@cptdankkk It takes a special kind of delusional to drop $3000 for a meal and still believe you’re in a position to rate a $600 tip as too extravagant.
@stonkbish@DavidDeutschOxf Or a fully functioning adult who objects to English spellings and pronunciations being dictated by non-English speakers. Turkey is distinct in the world in its insistence that users of other languages spell and pronounce the name of their country the way they have chosen.
“This isn’t the U.S.” That’s for sure. @grok can you give Brainless (I guess it’s not an insult if you call yourself that) a rundown on how many people are in jail for social media posts in the US versus the UK? While you’re at it, maybe give a rundown on how many people are incarcerated for social media posts in the UK versus other prominent countries. Not that Brainless will mind. Apparently rebranding “wrongthink” as “malicious communication“ makes everything OK.
You can run an interesting experiment here. Find a clip of some moron from Westboro Baptist Church or other hate-filled purported “Christian” group and ask moderate Christians to condemn the statements. I bet the response is somewhat more… robust than what you’re seeing in this thread.
Robert Greene reverse engineered 3,000 years of human psychology into timeless rules of power.
I turned those rules into 7 AI prompts that make you sharper, harder to manipulate, and impossible to ignore.
Here’s how to use LLMs to apply Greene’s principles in real life:
@elonmusk The glasses are potentially okay. She might be allergic to retinox—which is why Kirk had glasses in Wrath of Khan. And if we’re gonna say there shouldn’t be any fat folks in the future, what do we do with Scotty?
Orwell was a socialist. If he had wanted to include a capitalist villain in that book, he would have done so. He criticized capitalism elsewhere and to great effect. That’s not what this book was. You can’t “adapt” a pointed allegory like this to deliver some completely different message. If Andy Serkis wanted to make a critique of “surveillance capitalism,” why not write an original story about that? You want to be relevant to today’s audiences? Go for it. Don’t mutilate a classic in the process.
