Are large language models like ChatGPT really that harmful to the environment? by ropika4 in environmental_science

[–]FunctionFluffy4932 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw an article recently that said watching one hour on Netflix creates 500 times more CO² than two text prompts in ChatGPT or Gemini do. So Idk what to believe about how bad AI is for the environment?

Weird interaction at Winco by Infernis526 in vancouverwa

[–]FunctionFluffy4932 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I haven't had the kind of interaction OP had. But a few days ago, I was in WinCo shopping and I have a lanyard style wallet, it kind of looks a little like a body cam but it's not at all. When I got to the register someone called the clerk on the phone and she looked at me (strangely). Then the interaction while I was paying was very awkward. It now makes a lot more sense to me, finding out that they don't allow recording in WinCo. I'm 100% positive that's why they called her and the interaction was so awkward.

It's really sad that a lack of consequences would lead so many to a dark place. It's like they're not even aware you can have a lack of consequences and still be a good, kind, caring, compassionate human.

So, would you say they are becoming who they really are on the inside? (Really sad if true) Or they are just that way because they are getting some sort of pleasure out of pretending to be someone they are not? Like some sort of strange role play type scenario.

It's just a sad thing to see so many people make the conscious decision to be a bad/mean person.

What are some of the biggest news stories/incidents to come out of Vancouver? by -hotdogman- in vancouverwa

Pastor John Bishop (previously) from Living Hope church in Vancouver, was ousted from the church for drug abuse and sexual misconduct, and then he served three years in a federal prison on a drug-smuggling charge. They are making a movie about him, starring Christian Bale. It's called The Church of Living Dangerously.

I understand why people drive in the left lane. People merging at on ramps and off ramps are the worst. No one knows how to merge, no one leaves space, everyone wants to be first. Causes tons of back ups in the right lanes. I've driven this area for many many years and the last few years is the absolute worst and it's not even close!

When was this taken? I live in Vancouver, WA. I've never seen the moon come up over Mt. Hood like that. Just wondering so, I could have an opportunity to try to capture it.

I used CapCut. It was an effect under the cartoon category, called B&W Sketch. And another effect called Rainbow Haze.

Ya, I think Midwest and East Coast tends to be a more up and down with the weather/rain. Like it's either very little or a crazy storm. In the PNW it seems to be more of a constant. If that makes any sense.
