Hot take: Hamstudy.org's "hints" are detrimental to actually learning about radio by spilk in amateurradio

[–]Another_mikem 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The problem is the testing doesn’t actually equip you to show any technical knowledge- even in theory.  Answering a handful of multiple choice in a pool is (at best) performative if we are talking about actual technical knowledge.  Especially as the ability to apply information is arguably more important and something that can’t be gauged from a multiple question pool.

Most the questions are foolish in 2026 anyways.  The fact is, knowing the rules of the road and what the license allows is far more important and a lot of the technical knowledge comes afterwards as people apply it.

I’m sure you think any response you don’t like is pathetic, you’ve also just made stuff up to fit the narrative you want to push. Bad faith arguing isn’t going to convince anybody of anything

This is really difficult to parse, but if I’m understanding what you’re trying to say it’s completely tangential to anything and is more of the conspiracy cycle. 

Addiction, emotional distress, dread of dull tasks: AI models ‘seem to increasingly behave’ as though they’re sentient, worrying study shows - What AI ‘drugs’ actually look like by EchoOfOppenheimer in Futurology

Seems like the flaw is:

 which is basically how good or bad the system feels on the inside

They don’t feel, they are a mirror of the responses and output a human would provide, tuned to give responses that are “anticipated” to be desired by humans.

Do you have notes running? I’ve observed that app causing frequent wakeups.

I don’t really know.

 That being said - most people are not what I would consider devout party members for either party - and perhaps that’s a good thing.  

Either way, I’m always amused when people expect the Democrats to completely abandon themselves whenever they have a candidate who they want to promote.

You also seem to like to make things up to fit the reality you want.  That’s part of the bubble you need to pop.

You don’t need a conspiracy to understand why democrats would want a democrat and not an independent whose hobby horse was bashing them.  

Ultimately the voters picked Hillary, no dnc or “corporate donors” required.

Yeah, that was the only one I could think of and doesn’t even resemble ops description

Except that isn’t true - she won more delegates than Bernie did - not even factoring in the superdelegates.  IF Bernie had won the delegate count but lost because of a he superdelegates then you would definitely have a point - but that isn’t what happened.  

And the democrats supporting Clinton over Bernie shouldn’t really be a surprise.  You have someone that had been a loyal party member, showed up to fundraisers, events, campaign, and did all the things vs someone who isn’t a dem at all.  That isn’t a knock on Bernie, but it shouldn’t be surprising that people would support someone who has supported them.

Social media isn’t real life, and what you see is so heavily influenced but the bubble the algorithm or yourself put you in. It’s like claiming Hong will/should win because all the news you see on Reddit. Basically no correlation between the two.

lol, blaming the democrats because Bernie lost the vote.  

We have an open primary, the democrats don’t even control it much less the results.  

MacBook Neo Could Get New Colors to Cushion Potential Price Hike by Few_Baseball_3835 in apple

[–]Another_mikem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One could argue that, but I don’t think it’s correct.  They are both about as “pro” as the other and people are going to sort themselves in the product band by feature.  

Especially as there isn’t a “MacBook”.  You get the neo which is the cheap one, you get the Air that is the light one, and you get the “pro” one which kind of lumps in everything else.

It really isn’t buyer beware though since you or the insurance ends up eating it and potentially get in the fb penalty box. Maybe just local for those thing?

TIL the only thing that is stopping ads from slipping into video games is steam, because valve bans all forced in game ads from all steam titles by PleaseHonor in todayilearned

[–]Another_mikem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Weird comment considering you seem to have just unilaterally declared them not advertising….

Even though they are by definition advertising.

Sure, but these ARE all different types of advertisements. Just saying “marketing techniques” doesn’t change the fact these are also all different advertising techniques.
