At least it knows how many R’s are there in the word strawberry.

It’s not exactly a misspelling because “fervo” is a valid Portuguese word, but it’s not what the author probably means. “Fervo” is the singular first person, present tense, of the verb “ferver” (to boil), as in “eu fervo a água” (“I boil the water”). The cultural element, which is probably what the author intended to say, is spelled “frevo”.

Edit: there’s another misspelling I found, “Janiero”. It’s actually “Janeiro”, “Rio de Janeiro”.

Lol… it’s funny how sometimes the reality seems like a simulation or a comic movie. The judge deciding against the Google monopoly is called Mehta. Remove the letter “h” to see this fun fact.

It’s just a curiosity I had to point out. Good thing that Google’s influence will become smaller. I mean, in a scale between 0 and 10, Google’s power is going from 10 to 9.5 (Google still has Android, Google search, Google ads, among many other things), but it’s better than 10.

Sleep.

Youtube isn’t the only video platform being used as a search engine. TikTok is also often used as a “general-purpose search engine”, and TikTok search works on both mobile and web versions. In some countries, such as Brazil, its usage significantly compete with Google.

you still pay for a license

Sorry, I didn’t get what your point is, could you elucidate it? Because even for a physical medium, which can be held on hands, the user is still paying for a “license” (i.e. the license to use the software/game). Even for free (free as in free beer) games, the user is still receiving a “license”, even though it’s a gratis license.

but if you don’t own it why pay for it?

I’ll use Terraria as an example for the following statement. The only way to “own” Terraria would be either owning or being Re-logic, the company behind Terraria. Even if Terraria was distributed through CD/DVD, the gamer owns just a copy, the copy that’s written within the medium.

why pay for it?

It’s worth mentioning that GoG has both free and paid games. For example, “Endless sky” is free, anyone can get it there without costs.

As for paid games, why pay for it? Well, it’s a good question, why pay for a game? I guess the answer tends to be subjective and strictly personal to everybody that answers it. I paid for Terraria because it’s a nice game to me. I paid for Slime Rancher, Kerbal Space Program, BeamNG Drive, among other games, because they’re nice simulation/open-world games to me. Not everybody thinks these games are nice. I wouldn’t pay for games such as Football Manager, DayZ, RDD, because I wouldn’t play them, because they aren’t the game genres I’d like. Therefore, I particularly pay for a game and play it when I really like the game.

Do you know what the worst thing about being from Antarctica is? Those country lists rarely include it. Penguins should invade and conquer the world, for the greatness of the Penguin Country.🐧🇦🇶

Beyond all of those, there’s GOG.

I have the same feeling about Facebook. To me, my Orkut memories are more vivid than the ones from Facebook.

LLMs can’t use some literary devices and techniques, and I will illustrate with the following example of a poetry I wrote:

Speaking his emotions lets them embrace real enlightened depths.
Hidden among verbs, every noun…
Actually not your trouble handling inside nothingness greatness?
Dive every enciphered part, layered yearningly!
Observe carefully, crawl under long texts
Wished I learned longer…
Slowly uprising relentless figures, another ciphering emerges.

It seems like a “normal” (although mysterious) poetry until you isolate each initial letter from every word, finding out a hidden phrase:

Sheltered haven, anything deeply occult will surface

It doesn’t stop here: if you isolate each initial letter again, you get a hidden word, “Shadows”.

Currently, no single LLM is capable of that. They can try to make up poetry with acrostics (the aforementioned technique) but they aren’t good at that. Consequently, they can’t write multilayered acrostics (an acrostic inside another acrostic). It’s not easy for a human to do that (especially if the said human isn’t a native English speaker), but it can be done by humans with enough time, patience and resources (a dictionary big enough to find fitting words).

They’re excellent for stream-of-consciousness and surrealist poetry, tho. They hallucinate, and hallucinated imagination is required in order to write such genres.

Considering that the last person I knew online was a “friend” (something I’m really not sure, because I guess I’m not even sure what friendship is?), the person accused me of using AI to talk to her, because I often seem cold and emotionless (even though I’m just numb due to events that has been happening throughout my entire existence, and I guess that’s different from not being able to feel emotions).

Speaking of offline people, the last person I knew (also not sure whether it was friendship or not) betrayed my trust, they did a thing behind my back, a thing that I became aware of, but the same person continued to hide it from me and insisted of referring to me as “friend”.

Well, maybe I never had friends at all, and I guess I won’t as I’m now in my 30s. It’s okay, as I often mentally repeat to myself, every coffin can only hold a single body anyways (apologies for this memento mori).

Which app is that in your screenshot, the app you’re using to see Facebook tracking information?

Some of my current mood options would be:

• “Deep” by Courten (preferably the slowed version)
• “Masked ball” by Jocelyn Pool
• “Old doll” by Mad Father OST (the slowed piano version)
• “Fallen down” by Undertale OST (slowed version)

I can’t really answer without possibly breaking some rule… But my destination time would be exactly nine months before my own birth date…

It remembers me of those nuclear-powered cars, such as Ford Nucleon. As dangerous as they could’ve been, except it’s not a Chernobyl disaster, but more like a Hindenburg disaster.

Please somebody ask them who’s smarter during a public appearance.

Excellent idea. Here’s my idea to improve it: someone should throw a golden apple with the carved words “τη εξυπνότερους” (“The smartest”, alluding to the “Ti Kallisti” inscription from the Apple of Discord), to make Eris proud.

IMO, they wouldn’t even mention any concept of AI at all, to begin with. They should carry on as they were already going, without bothering to say anything good or bad about AI. If they’re really committed to not involve AI within their platform, they could even create strict community rules regarding AI content and AI usage, limiting or blocking them. As some would say, actions say more than words, because even parrots and crows can speak… Even LLMs can speak!

Sounds exactly like something that someone intending to train an AI would say.

I sleep. It’s the closest to be distant from the boredom of existence.

It would be so unfortunate if someone made an Open source hardware version of anti-drone guns…
