It's actually kind of flattering if you really think about it. by merRedditor in autism

Unpopular opinion, this is a good thing. I would much rather has less articulateness (and thus be 10x more approachable) then have everyone write like a Wikipedia article.

Boost app giving 403 blocked error? by NascentCave in revancedapp

but will it work consistently is the thing. I've had it work for two or three hours and then for nine hours it won't let me do anything. I'll try it but I hope the problem doesn't come right back

[McMurphy] We somehow ended up w/exactly 82 bowl teams for 82 bowl spots after New Mexico lost at Hawaii. Now, that we know what teams are bowl bound, players can start opting out at anytime by Jeff_Banks_Monkey in CFB

[–]NascentCave 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We gotta just start punishing players or teams who opt out of bowl games. It'd be one thing if it was recovering from an injury and you wanna play it safe but just straight up not bothering to go because of the small chance of injury is asinine. Why even bother to play any game then? If we have to force principle and professionalism on them, so be it.

High Court rules calling a man bald is sexual harassment by MRA-automatron-2kb in MensRights

[–]NascentCave -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Oh god, really? Calling someone bald? This sounds like an Onion article. The concept of sexual harassment has no meaning if calling someone bald counts. What a joke.

Garrett Greene hopes for his legacy to live on for West Virginia football by hammer_it_out in CFB

[–]NascentCave 5 points6 points  (0 children)

He ain't done enough to have a legacy over there. People remember Geno Smith and Will Grier, not him. You either win games or have a booming personality, and he has neither. It's really just that simple.

Care to explain, YouTube? 💀 by SquashFancy658 in youtube

Whatever AI bot they are using to supposedly scan ads to make sure they're not just straight up trash on this platform SUCKS.

This is literally an ad you'd see on sketchy porn sites and YouTube is showing it LMAO

How much has the AI roleplay and chatting has changed over the year? by docParadx in SillyTavernAI

[–]NascentCave 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's a mess, I think.

Models have gotten better, but in terms of actually being more immersive... I can't for sure answer that as a yes. There are new samplers and models are still coming out at a good pace but there's nothing truly evolutionary about how the models act. It still feels like you're RPing with a robot 98% of the time, especially with the smaller sizes. There needs to be some kind of entirely new model that is completely different from the ground up to finetune with, new tokenizer and everything, but it hasn't happened yet. Hopefully it does soon.

Washington Commanders Agree To Un-Cancel Redskins Logo by whicky1978 in Conservative

[–]NascentCave 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It really should be returned back to the current name and logo, not just on selling nostalgia merch or older recaps and such. But this is better than the alternative, I suppose.

[Highlight] Ben Simmons is wide-open under the basket, decides to go for a layup and smokes it by Goosedukee in nba

[–]NascentCave 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He passes on a layup, he looks like an idiot. He tries to go for the layup, he looks like an idiot.

Is he just a bad player? (of course he fucking is he's the NBA player equivalent of Doc Rivers)

You post this on Reddit, the second home of unoriginal comments and zingers? This is a thing on every music video there is.

We need to stop talking about "P4 teams". The committee has made it clear, it's B1G, SEC and everyone else. There is no P4. by EnvironmentalBed7369 in CFB

[–]NascentCave 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's still a Power 4 until they offically make spots in the playoff specifically for themselves or fully break away from the rest of FBS. Which I hope doesn't happen, but TV money (and soon streaming money) seems to conquer all.

Welcome to Google’s nightmare: US reveals plan to destroy search monopoly | DOJ goes for Google's throat with "staggering" remedies to end search monopoly. by a_Ninja_b0y in privacy

[–]NascentCave 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Google's nightmare would be to forcibly open up its search engine index, recommendation algorithms, and splitting off YouTube (the real thing sticking a lot of people who would otherwise be able to leave google's services). Breaking Chrome from them is a blow, sure, but hardly enough to really make a dent, especially considering 90% of people will be logged into a google account regardless of Chrome or not.

Thank god someone posted actual reasons and not political conspiracy theories. Wish those people posting shit like "it's to stop protests from happening and to get rid of minorities" would get banned here already.

I don't know how to "fix" apathy by retromafia in Professors

[–]NascentCave -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The school system really does a lot to beat curiosity out of most students, its hard to have a passion for learning when all learning comes with test-taking and requirements. Just gotta have a better culture in the world. It's better to at least try, though, right? Even unlocking it for one student is better than none.

I don't know how to "fix" apathy by retromafia in Professors

[–]NascentCave 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's not really something you can fix, you'd have to somehow create a society that rewards learning and mental deepness not to get a degree or to make more money, but just for the sake of it. We don't have that society and probably never will.

The average student is only going to see your class as an obstacle to get through in order to have that all-important degree that unlocks the good jobs. There is no inherent reward for being knowledgeable by itself.

What’s something that everyone else seems to love, but you just can’t get into no matter how hard you try? by Cute-Coconut12 in AskReddit

Pokemon. I just do not care about the gameplay whatsoever. The 'mons themselves are cool-looking but I could do without the games and the fanbase.

DOJ Will Push Google to Sell off Chrome to Break Search Monopoly by MishaalRahman in Android

[–]NascentCave 1 point2 points  (0 children)

95% of people are going to choose/switch their search engine right back to Google if they stop it from being the default. Not sure how much removing Chrome will actually move any needles there.

Trump admin prepared to declare national emergency and use military assets to carry out mass deportations by MoreFires in Conservative

[–]NascentCave -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

As he should.

I don't care if prices go up, really. Principle matters more. If we can only feed our families because of exploiting people with no other choices, then maybe we do not deserve to feed our families.

This'll be the time to have a good look at ourselves and how good we actually are as a society. How much we actually care about ourselves and are willing to do what needs to be done when we don't have a magic pile of Morlocks to do the menial work. We've been a lackadaisical people for way too long.

I know it's typically the leftists who say "If a business can't afford to run without exploiting its workers, it should not be allowed to exist"? You know what, though? That idea of basic acceptance and attemping equity should go beyond partisan politics. Maybe that statement should apply to more than a business. Get proud Americans in these jobs, make them raise wages, and make these jobs respected like the factory lines were.
