Ngl these aura farming battles are probably one of the better things the Internet has come up with. It's stupid af but that's the point π not often are there lighthearted things like this
@humanlyunique@financedystop This has always been a thing - computers to replace paper, software that can reduce manual input, now AI is doing the same from the lowest to highest layer. the different conversation is whether the system wants you to have free time or surplus of resources
@Polymarket About time holy fuck. Imagine how many rev they've missed out on over this stupid choice. Have chosen HEB at least a dozen times over when I don't have my wallet. Multiply that by every other millennial/Gen Z and you should fire whoever blocked this for so long
had my own exp w this a couple days ago. was on a road trip, had a car issue 1hr in so parked on side of the road like @/6AM
cop stopped and instead of helping he said my car reeked, and detained me while he tore it apart π
Didn't find anything, got car fixed and started driving.
About an hour before I arrived a little past a checkpoint in TX, another cop pulls me over. Says I didn't stop at a stop sign (not only did I stop, but I waited there a good ass 3 seconds. I ask them to check any footage they might have) Changes the story to say I stopped in front of the white lines mid conv. I'm like whatever fine.
I got let go with a warning she didn't make a big deal after I comolied but I couldn't stop thinking how odd and random that it felt to get pulled over. Almost like I got flagged for one instead
Hadn't been pulled over in at least 1yr before that
@BEisenhart not many people stop and consider how concerning data science can be.
This is just one instance of how we are increasingly under the control of a precise, calibrated system. Like cattle in a pen
Im sure it's gotten exponentially worse since LLMs
