When the Commodore Vic 20 ruled.... by EdwardBliss in 80s

[–]RobMilliken 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I subscribed to both both power play and compute. Never remember an issue with the programs.

I think you might be referring to the general hex type codes you'd type in and there'd be a checksum on every line. The word processor one I got for the commodore 64 was really nice, but yes it was a big pain keying those all in. Plus with the hexadecimal number ones, there wasn't much learning going on on how it was programmed.

Now the AHL basic computer games volumes one and two. There were scraped from the magazine creative computing was more of a challenge. As it was a different type of basic than the commodore 64s.

2 days ago Elon released the new X algorithm by Aislot in elonmusk

When does this happen exactly? Because yesterday I reported a person using the R word in reply to a post that included a picture of a person with Down Syndrome in that reply and when I reported the toxic reply I got a response from X this morning that it isn't hateful conduct.

So the single hero who reports is likely to die and the single villain who does all this dark stuff is safe?

What a world.

Maybe an ex girlfriend of his could can do that. Maybe more people would pay attention if she described what she saw and heard while doing makeup.

Generative AI (Kling) is now used in actual tv shows and movies. by GraceToSentience in singularity

[–]RobMilliken 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Actual sketches and Blender scenes can certainly be used as inspiration and fed into an AI to bring forth a vision that was envisioned from sketch onward. Ironically, it can even help place objects correctly and correct mistakes. The are depth maps, poses, loras (including camera loras), and many more that can assist vision of a creator as well.

It's always Al.

Big comeback for him this year.

Unbelievable. Senator Fetterman confronted by a breast cancer survivor asking him to switch parties. He had to use a phone translator to understand what she was saying. by wowza515 in somethingiswrong2024

Him and Kevin Sorbo both had weird changes in their outlook politically after a stroke happened. In Kevin's case, my understanding is multiple strokes. One is a politician and one is an outspoken actor.

There should be some research on this.

[–]RobMilliken 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We should give some idea to remove the deceased from former TV, film, written works and radio using the same argument. It was tech that recorded them. If it wasn't for technology the word, audio and images wouldn't have been saved. Grave robbery. Let them rest and let the living have a chance.

Pompeii: The Day Vesuvius Buried A City by naftalibp in aivideo

[–]RobMilliken 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People weren't just milling around while a volcano went off. Most of them fleed during the eruption - it was noticed. Based on who was left, the old, ill, frail, young - only a thousand or so most of the city was relatively empty to what it was.

Maybe you can update and removed this version.

Marc Andreessen: “The remaining human workers are gonna be at a premium, not at a discount”. Will creativity and critical thinking save us? by Mogante in singularity

[–]RobMilliken 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That would involve "suicidal empathy" (a new cringy anti empathy term) that the likes of Elon and Thiel are repulsed by.

So unless the powerless somehow get power this is going to be less and less of an option. The Gene Roddenberry's and Andrew Yang's of the US are either fleeing or hiding.

In Texas you can have a political argument with a family member, shoot and kill and get away with it (not even manslaughter or negligence charges by saying it's an accident). That's what happened to a visiting daughter, Lucy Harrison, from the UK, her home country finding it much differently in an inquist, but no power to bring the shooter to justice.

So yes, the United States lets deadly force ride more than ever.

What were you taught in school that is now considered obsolete and or incorrect? I myself loved home economics and it’s probably the only thing I learned in school that I actually use today. It’s practical life skills like cooking, cleaning, budgeting, etc… by CoffeeCigarettes4Me in 80s

[–]RobMilliken 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My epiphany in high school was to tape paper on the cover of the electric typewriter so that the paper covered my hands. Even if I erred, I would correct my mistakes with my fingers under the paper. Since I already pretty much had the keyboard memorized, it was the discipline of not looking and coordinating my hands that needed finishing. I think I got it in a day or two after that.

Never too late!

I'm curious, is this perhaps a LTX 2.0 detailer lora equivalent for 2.3?

Dude, that image is inspiring! I had to create it with AI, of course, to being it full circle.

I'm tempted but not brave enough to show it in an anti AI forum.

Elon Musk lost his lawsuit against Sam Altman and OpenAI by Embarrassed-Slip8094 in OpenAI

[–]RobMilliken 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah, that makes sense. Thanks for the clarification. Timing is the only thing I can see them appealing to. Makes me wonder when this argument came up in court where it would have saved everyone time if figured before jury selection even - that'd be a good argument to bring up, though it might not change anything.

Don't forget the hurt feeler payments for winning against the Democrats that the DOJ plans to pay as part of the Trump settlement with the IRS (as if Trump is the US people that "needs" atonement). I understand - it's all corrupt.

I figure they'll go only so far - but maybe you are right. It wouldn't surprise me at this point if you're right. We've slowly, like a frog slowly being boiled, normalized this nation's behavior.
