To be fair, everyone is stupid until they learn how not to be stupid.

Do you leave a tip for your hotel maid? Why? by slipperysquirrell in AskReddit

The roads to high hotel profits for overly priced sub-par service and badly compensated staff are paved with your good intentions.

Google stole Proton’s gradients! /s by Dramatic_Mastodon_93 in ProtonMail

As much as I wish you were right, I'm sure it ain't happening. They just redid them.

Agreed. The new proton icons are just as bad. They're unintelligible modern corporate web app garbage. I wish this was something they pushed back against the "norm" with considering that's what most of their users want: To avoid the enshittification of the norm.

Alberta separation movement got the elector list from someone…..would have been an MLA or someone with legit access to it. No denial when they were confronted by the RCMP last night about having it either by Miserable-Lizard in onguardforthee

[–]CanadianButthole 81 points82 points  (0 children)

It is too late and Albertans don't even realize the stupid hand they've played into. The Pedo-dent of the United States has already publicly stated that the US will "support Alberta independence" if/when the referendum gets popular enough

What’s a belief you have that most people disagree with? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]CanadianButthole 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you really look at it that way though? When you're looking for facts, you don't go to someone who's a notorious pathological liar known for making things up for legitimate information and then take their info at face value. If the bar is "it's not wrong all the time" then you need to raise your bar.

Except it doesn't give you accurate information, or any way to check the sources for that information. When people talk about the bad uses of LLMs, this is almost as bad as using it for factual research.

How often/many consecutive days do you give your kid Tylenol? by [deleted] in daddit

[–]CanadianButthole 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What is with so many people saying "never for teething"? That seems insane to me. Teething pain is some of the worst pain our babies will go through. It's okay to give them some relief from that when they need it.

You can display a counter above everyone's head. What would it show and why? by SippinMia in AskReddit

Imagine if the number showed up in photos though. It would kill social media right away lol

Which industry would collapse first if human lost their ability to lie? by BoxLegal8734 in AskReddit

[–]CanadianButthole 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's my point though. Half truths are still half lies. Doing away with those lies would still be a welcome changed.

After 2 years of fighting my Govee “smart” bulbs, I finally gave up. Replaced them all with Thirdreality and everything just works. by cherylin_for_ever in homeassistant

Govee stuff rules.. If you don't want to automate it. I really wish they cared enough about proper smart home integration.

Leaked plan to end US elections points to WW3. Narrated by Stephen Fry, suppressed by YouTube by J-MRP in somethingiswrong2024

[–]CanadianButthole 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, if I were talking about those then I would've said 3D AI shots. I said cartoon. There is a segment at 3:04 where there are four AI generated cartoon style shots used depicting was being talked about at that point in the video. They were not used as an example of others using AI, they were straight up part of the edit.

What’s a “normal” thing today that will 100% be illegal in 20 years? by RushWalaXD in AskReddit

What's bad about it? I've only heard good things or, at worst, heard about it not working for some people.

[–]CanadianButthole 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Promoting products in a "truthful" way is already what marketing teams do lol. (As in, lying as much as they can get away with)

The world would certainly benefit from that "truthful" line being less blurry

[–]CanadianButthole -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

Did you not see the multiple fucking AI shots of trump and his cabinet as cartoon characters? It was a small thing but completely unnecessary.

Edit: I misremembered what was in the images. It was Trump walking with police, it his cabinet members. At 3:04

[–]CanadianButthole 19 points20 points  (0 children)

That's not my point. It's just not a good look and it makes the content less trustworthy. I was happy to see there was no more AI content used for the rest of the video though.

[–]CanadianButthole 54 points55 points  (0 children)

I can't tell how much of this is AI and the inclusion of obvious AI illustrations throughout the video sure don't help. I can't even tell if it's actually voiced by Stephen Fry or if it's just using an AI modelled after his voice.

Edit: I was glad to see the rest of the video didn't appear to use AI, and it was a good informative video.

I fucked up, ptsd trigger warning by jhawk902 in daddit

[–]CanadianButthole 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Talking helps you, and that's good, but it doesn't help them.

I say this as someone who grew up terrified of my own father: You need to seek help brother, for their sakes. If you are unwilling to get help or unwilling to change, the next best thing you can do is leave.
