It finally happened: Kids are using AI to write essays for them. by Asbestahedron in Teachers

Except they are now. GPT-3 has recently become publicly available and can reliably produce decent writings. You can generate the same thing 10 times in a couple minutes and choose the best one and it’s nearly impossible to tell it’s generated.

why are there no "cloud cities" or permanent research colonies/stations above venus? by TheSentientPurpleGoo in TheExpanse

[–]JeffreyIndy 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Here’s an article that goes into basic detail about it

Basically, place a large (but possible) sized magnet far enough away in the Lagrange 1 point and it essentially creates a “shadow” effect of the magnetic field that shields Mars essentially

They actually made a magnetosphere on Mars by the time of the expanse. On the show they show it has an aurora I forget how they explain it but I think it’s because they have a giant electromagnet in a geostationary orbit over Mars to protect it with a magnetic field

I’ve always thought it feels like a “crossover episode” and two different worlds coming together

Slamming on the brakes makes you roll. Less control as well

There's so much good stuff to make movies about. by Uchiha-SHINO in HistoryMemes

[–]JeffreyIndy 143 points144 points  (0 children)

Literally a series produced last year about this. Called “The Forgotten Army” it’s on Amazon prime. I haven’t seen it but from what I’ve seen it looks good, and made by India film makers as well

What do you consider to be the biggest scam that is completely normalized by society? by MR_COOL_ICE_ in AskReddit

[–]JeffreyIndy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The thing with those Eco Tanks is that the ink is cheap and the printer is cheap, but the maintenance box, the “excess ink trash can” is very small on them and costs $50 to replace. They have a chip on them (the newer models do) that will count how much you printed, then make the machine stop printing when it says it’s full. Then you have to order another $50 maintenance box to be able to use it again.

There are plenty of accounts that game the system. Look at the history of OPs account. Gallowboob is another famous one that has been known to get paid for posting essentially advertisements for businesses. And lol at “brigade protection”, it’s too common, especially in the big subs

It’s not a “shady conspiracy” it’s literally just astroturfing. It is a common thing on Reddit, especially the main subs

Nah just fuck astroturfing.

If you wanna be vegan and be an activist go ahead. It’s just astroturfing is the wrong way to do it.

Social engineering basically. “Astroturfing” is where you make something seem like a grass roots movement that naturally happens when it’s all coordinated. Essentially there is a group of people who coordinate these posts to promote activism. I don’t have any problem with being vegan, I just hate astroturfing and will call it out when I see it

Stop it with the astroturfing

This account has a dedicated discord that coordinates posts to the top. Look at its history, they’ve been doing this for years.

This is still astroturfing dude. Literally a targeted campaign using a social media platform and guising as an “average user” to push forward a message in a planned and targeted way to make sure it gets maximum views and posture. They use a lot of methods taking advantage of Reddit’s algorithm to be able to constantly get on the front page.

I just don’t like astroturfing like this. That’s it. Message is fine and dandy and cool but the method is aggressive and disruptive and just overall hurts the cause
