Went to the movies last friday.

Scary Movie 6 was alright, didn't hate watching it but would have been fine missing it. 2/5.

Backrooms was really good imo, best horror I've seen in a while. 4/5.

@HetkeBrian @ludwigABAP Whether or not a perfect replica of a human brain would be conscious is an interesting question, one Sci-Fi authors have dined out on for a long time, because we don't know *for sure*. But it is fiction, and it remains fiction, because LLMs work nothing like a human brain.

@AdamRackis Sweden actually has the lowest percentage of smokers in Europe! (We use snus instead)

@suspendfunc @tolly_xyz I'm sure the reason he was fired from X has nothing to do with it

"Oh that Siegfried, blond and blue-eyed, the German hero, had to fall by my hand, the most loyal and courageous! He had everything in himself that I treasured as the greater and more beautiful; he was my power, my boldness, my pride. I would have gone under in the same battle, and so only assassination was left to me. If I wanted to go on living, it could only be through trickery and cunning."

What does the ML in XML stand for because it sure ain't Markup Language.

The Pope's encyclical means a Catholic can cite religious concerns for not wanting to use AI, no?

[Jakob Bergström @the_remirth]

@magnum_d1ngus But YAML is sooo ***pythonic***

@slimjimmy Unironically it is understated the influence the pontiac steppe region has had on Europe, be it the actual indo-europeans, the scythians, the huns, the mongols etc. I think we prefer to only think of Rome/Greece because that's "enlightened civilization" but we are also barbarians

@slimjimmy Won't stand for this slander of my ancestor
