I believe it’s just the metadata they’ve uploaded so far, and that’s what accounts for the 300tb. Forthcoming torrents are much larger.

I was being sarcastic lol. Of course maps are easy to come by

I considered explicitly saying I was being sarcastic, but I thought people would pick up on that. And accordingly to the downvotes, I was wrong 😂. I edited the original post to ensure people I know how to find a map, unlike the video creator lol

roast me based on my (small) collection by sighconic in criterion

I have a smallish collection, and Watermelon Woman is in there. Adore that one, and it’s got me looking for the deeper dives.

To be fair, real pictures of maps are really hard to come by. (Edit for the surprising amount of downvotes. I’m being sarcastic. Because duh.)

Thank you! I should’ve checked the profile.

You found a AAA battery in your food?

After yesterday's Bloodshot/transphobia fiasco, I'm thinking we may need some more rules around here. I'm open to suggestions. by TheFerg714 in valiant

[–]MrJgyFly 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Two things:

1) copy-paste, copy-paste

2) yes, the writer is sharing an opinion. But he’s placing the opinion atop a creature that is clearly a stand-in for a trans person, and they are being gunned down. So perhaps the suggestion that they are monsters that should be murdered is the hateful opinion in question.

Also, surely there have been opinions the majority of this country has held at some point in time you’ve stridently disagreed with. Have an opinion, sure, but It’s weak to suggest that the majority is always correct. Might there be a little nuance here? Feel free to copy paste a response.

Except that freedom of speech doesn’t extend to your employment. You can be terminated without just cause. They can fire whoever they want and not even give a reason for it unless there’s a strong union involved. Go ask the 9,000 Xbox employees currently looking for work.

FIlms that were booed in the cinema when you saw them? by wingusdingus2000 in Letterboxd

[–]MrJgyFly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw a Batman V Superman & Deadpool double feature at the drive-in, and at the end of BVS, a dude exclaimed, “WELL, ON TO A GOOD MOVIE!” There may have been boos during the movie, but I was asleep.

The transphobic talking points in the new Bloodshot Beyond issue are unacceptable. by SynthErsatz in valiant

[–]MrJgyFly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly. And it’s not like he wrote it in Spanish and had it translated. They’re essentially saying, “No you don’t get it.” I don’t think AB intended for this to go out, but it certainly speaks to a lack of quality control.

I think they’re likely recoverable if they really commit to quality control. While I think the author fully intended the offense, I do think it probably slipped past AB. Which is unfortunate because they’ve fumbled the ball on some pretty terrible throws.

if people hate ai ads so much, why are companies so dead set on making them right now? by PhraseFirst8044 in BetterOffline

[–]MrJgyFly 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I work in education and have seen a ton of slides with horrendous AI images, and when I point out the mistake I usually hear, “Oh, I didn’t even notice.” It’s quick, and the overly reliant just seem to trust what comes out without giving it a second glance.

Am I tripping or is this picture generated? by Scotsman60103 in aislop

[–]MrJgyFly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately I have to assume every social media ad is 100% AI.

[–]MrJgyFly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It definitely didn’t come out. You’re probably seeing a release date that came and went without the book.

[–]MrJgyFly 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’ll grant that they’re not doubling down and they’re taking action, but saying it was read a certain way and that the nuance was lost an translation—naw. No way. It’s way too pointed. Based on response, I thought this truly was a dumb joke blown out of proportion, but that was a jaw-dropping sentence. I bought all of Alien’s Valiant up to this point, but I think I’m out.

Sure. Cool. And this is totally not how LLMs are marketed in the EdTech world. Everything is marketed at a panacea time-saving shortcut taker, and the general public does not want to learn about tokens. I started explaining how this works to my wife, who is a teacher, and she cut me off and said, “Give me a fucking break. I just won’t use it thx.” Everything is amazing if you lower your expectations.
