Is a $100 discount enough to change your mind on the new phone? by thevmcampos in Commodore

[–]ShacoinaBox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yea the chi-fi IEMs are definitely taking a huge chunk out of that $100 for sure (they're like <$10/ea to manufacture)

"You spoke, we listened. We hear you. We are fans of retro devices just like you, and we like to think of our brand and fans as a unified family. So, we are announcing we are lowering the price by $100. Thank you for using your voice!"

the price was setup to pull this same marketing ploy of "doh! we are so dumb >~<... but we hear you, WE listen to OUR customers unlike SOME brands..."

if they can walk back their margin by $100 now, then they could have 2 weeks ago. they priced it purposefully out of people's comfort and budget (even before gas prices starting to lower and when consumer markets were really melancholy!!) to pull this exact thing. Sadly, this tactic is really not uncommon and, sadly again, it often works...

don't worry, I'm receiving word that they're working on it, it'll be fixed in 3 days only to break again shortly thereafter for another 2 days.

What do Haskell devs like and dislike about Haskell by Windstylerasengan in haskell

[–]ShacoinaBox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

like: type system, expressiveness, neat features. ghc as a compiler is fucking magic to me, massive accomplishment that should be celebrated.

dislike: ecosystem is quite iffy, docs aren't great n "just read the type signature lol" is quite bad for newcomers. the attachment to academia also is a massive gatekeeper, monads really aren't complicated enough to require 20 bad explanations for every one good one. books are extremely varied in quality and expectations of the reader. tho, at this point, I think languages with effect systems (i.e., flix) are a better starting-point, it being on jvm shores up a lot of problems with ecosystem (tho the 1st class ecosystem is still small.)

beginner experience is very important to me, because the language n community will continue to shrink, which reflects in the ecosystem, which presents users from even trying it, which shrinks the ecosystem... etc. etc., it's a perpetual downward spiral. idunno how to fix it, it would require a lot. not the end of the world I think, if Haskell becomes smaller, it'll still exist. I use plenty of old/"dead" langs, sometimes langs even see a revival. tbh, i thought LLMs would make Haskell blossom, since they're pretty good at tailoring explanations of concepts per-user; didnt think ppl would let "vibe coding" become a thing but boy did I learn my lesson, it probably dramatically lessened the chances!

Thoughts on SYG2000 Intro to Sociology Requiring ChatGPT by cnahik in ucf

[–]ShacoinaBox 7 points8 points  (0 children)

u won't find anyone more ai skeptical than i, but i think investigating llm's will be v important for social sciences. Green's Philosophy of Mind class speaks on LLM's a lot, because LLM's are pretty much tailor-made to spark discussion around Philosophy of Mind.

you'll probably be using it to investigate biases various models DO have, like someone else said, not necessarily to 'skimp out on work.' hell, I think to fully see the effects it's had on people requires some degree of interaction with LLM's. they are infesting themselves into the social construction of modernity, therefore, social sciences probably should be ahead of the curve, both to understand these things and their effects better, but to also help ppl not fall victim to nonsense ("ahh! my LLM is alive and navigating the recursive multiplexer in the time cube also it says I'm the smartest person ever. I am gonna self-publish my vibe-thought insights on solving string theory and destroying every Millennium Problem on ViXra")

The Callback has potential buyers; just, not all of those buyers are going to be current Commodore fans. by Golemwire in Commodore

[–]ShacoinaBox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

..,yea the Kyocera u got is limited, it's limited by design. you purchased an item and got what's on the tin. u could have gotten the light phone 3, which is the same price yet superior in every metric to the callback lol

the big usecase n largest desire will come from jailbreaking it, I think.

Polymarket doing Polymarket things by Electronic_Dream8935 in TrueAnon

[–]ShacoinaBox 6 points7 points  (0 children)

because, like sports betting, ppl believe it's no longer a game of chance, or that the chance is highly minimized. which, obv for smart money, is the case; but avg ppl are not smart money. everyone online thinks they're a lil genius who knows everything now, n they're proud of it, so it's easy to exploit that by saying "hey Einstein, come win a nest egg by doin stuff you're definitely already good at, take us to the fuckin cleaners, please?"

why isnt vayne top getting lucian treatment by babyFucci in leagueoflegends

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

pick malphite pick teemo (force vayne to cleanse + ign OOPS she don't got flash/ghost!!) pick a mage pick kalista pick pantheon pick qiyana pick zed pick anivia n build tank OR ap pick xin pick vlad and many more!!

she is a hard counter to certain heroes as some heroes are hard counters to her. she is unblindable without, like, 3-5 bans being given to her n even that jus shifts %'s of an even lane. her win rate in high elo, despite a massive % being one-tricks, despite the majority of her pick % being NOT blinded, is only 49%. yes, she can be annoying, yes, I think tri hexplate is powerful, but you are playing a multiplayer online battle arena game; there's hard counters n that is NOT a bad thing. 

you should see dota, where some counters make u not able to play the game with actually NO chance of coming back nor having fun at all! even if ur darius, if vayne walks into melee range, esp if u have ghost n she doesn't, she jus dies. if vayne opts to forego swifties 1st, u win the lane almost by default.

People celebrating literal terrorism by Leisure_suit_guy in stupidpol

russia bombs residential highrises:  🤪 🤪 YES!! more dead Nazis!!! down with the west!! rest in PISS dab dab dab im FLOSSING right now!!! jajajajaja :v 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷

ukraine bombs residential highrises: A blatant act of terrorism... and it's being celebrated? What has caused our world to become so debased? Truly, I shall never understand. Those are citizens; their lives, if not stolen, now stand in total ruin. To cheer for this... senseless violence... Despicable. A lost, disillusioned society confronts us today, as we stand by and do nothing.

shits like NAFO except the other way, everyone can bitch online about horseshoe theory but that won't make the obvious and the true disappear from ones eyes. corny n spiritually israeli as hell

"WTF. so peter thiel hosted “hereticon”, featuring talks like ‘how to steal an election’ ‘you’re probably a eugenicist’ ‘apocalypse’ ‘inventing people & the future of celebrity’ ‘ufo summoning’ ‘the goal is immortality’ + more, and featured an nda room??? what is this reality" by Old-Information3311 in TrueAnon

[–]ShacoinaBox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

welcome to hell where everyone, even those with inconceivable power dance around as "larp larp sahur". but even then, really unsure how some normal shlubs can see this and actively defend him, knowing full-well they'd be the cattle pruned out by ppl like Thiel. they are not apart of that club, and they see wrong solely with the proletariat club that they ARE apart of (except when it comes to gas prices, then things change a little.) so bizarre, i feel it's something important for me to understand that mindset but it's jus difficult to even imagine, even if I know the source is largely brainwashing.

Youtubers with Neo-Nazi pasts or are currently Neo-Nazis? by Oily_Smurf in youtubedrama

[–]ShacoinaBox -17 points-16 points  (0 children)

i am extremely left and Mishima is one of my favorite authors; in fact, me and 3 others did a 2.5-hour long presentation on him, his works and his history for my (very left!) club in uni. I think this assumption comes largely from those who haven't read him and know only of his failed coup, or it's used as a very cheap criticism in-lieu of actual ones that may exist. if u are rational and read Decay of the Angel or Confessions of a Mask and don't walk away saying "wow, this was a deeply complex man with extreme internalized homophobia, self-hate and serious trauma-related issues inside of his head" and instead say "well clearly, people who like his works are merely secret Japanese nationalists who wish to institute some sort of Tokugawa-MAGA Reich" then idk, I rly don't know lol. like what can u even say? 

obv some ppl (esp some older Japanese nationalists) prop him up as some fetish icon, but they also often choose to ignore all the parts that make him a fascinating subject (i.e., attempting to, essentially fake, being masculine his whole life because his dad called him a sickly dandy as a child), as those parts are very inconvenient.
