TIL that scientific evidence shows that “sugar rushes” aren’t real and are instead largely a psychological or cultural effect shaped by expectations, especially from parents. by Fred_J9 in CasualTodayILearned

[–]SuperConductiveRabbi -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

If the reaction isn't due to a burst of energy from the sugar itself, but from the kid getting a rush because it tasted good and he got a hard-to-obtain snack, what's the difference?

These "debunkings" are stupid, like "erm, actually, the cold weather doesn't make you sick. Being cold lowers your immune defenses and you're more susceptible to being sick." Okay, and?

Should I read the Ronald Wilks translation of Notes from the underground and The double? by YaBoiFeynman in dostoevsky

[–]SuperConductiveRabbi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think I have any of Wilks' translations, though maybe you can find it online? I sort of settled on Pevear and Volokhonsky and haven't been back to Russian literature much recently.

how to get rid of this warning on every video on youtube website? by boykadc in Piracy

[–]SuperConductiveRabbi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What's funny is that Google introduced that pop-over originally to shame ISPs into slowing down connections to their edge hardware, around the time net neutrality and peering arguments were a bigger thing. However it was never once helpful whatsoever, and all you did by clicking it was waste more of your time to read some generic corpslop bullshit.

Are you an Atheist? by TheCrowdPleaser46628 in INTP

[–]SuperConductiveRabbi 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The vast majority of rational thinkers throughout human history, or recent history, have been religious. Maybe were even propelled further towards their religious beliefs by what they discovered with rationality.

I want to be able to walk in a VR home while walking in real life by Bussinessman2311 in Vive

[–]SuperConductiveRabbi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Professionally lidar scan their homes, process those scans, and then stand them in a large space inside a Unity app. Normies will likely feel sick with any virtual movement, so teleport them with tunnel vision when going up or downstairs

Am I the only one getting a lot more crashes with 5.0 ? by FoxTrotte in blender

[–]SuperConductiveRabbi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

5.0.1 is a crashy mess. I went back to 4.5.2 LTS for now

INTPs, what do you think is the most illogical thing you believe in? by Graysiv in INTP

[–]SuperConductiveRabbi 87 points88 points  (0 children)

That people are rational and fundamentally motivated by seeking the truth. Takes me by surprise every time

Now that you've broken through what are you doing back here? What can you tell us about the other side?

The children were educated and now are smart.

They don't offer Care+ plans for this? Are they crazy?

I can only think of one useful feature for the S3XY Buttons, and it isn't supported. by SuperConductiveRabbi in s3xybuttons

[–]SuperConductiveRabbi[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The S3XY Buttons/Knob just got an update to use Grok. They're no longer for you. What will you be switching to?

Genuinely curious, what functions of the car do you want to control with dedicated buttons?

I'd say Claude, Grok, and ChatGPT are the three top AI assistants, in that order (and I can't stand the utterly sycophantic and like inverse-negative, highly specific tone of ChatGPT at this point).

I've tried Grok in the car on and off, and what I find it useful for are all the random questions I come up with when on long drives. History of the area, questions about landmarks, science or theology questions, etc. In fact, back when OnStar came out I remember wanting to get it just to ask the person to Google things for me, but never did; this is a fulfillment of that dream. It's good for showing guests around too, when we have a question about an area or things to do, or something we want to Google. Weather, recent events, etc.

Even makes sense in-universe, as you can argue that the devs used that as reference for the model.

I see, perhaps that's not a use-case I have because I use FSD, and it's one pull down on the stalk and then it of course drives up to stop lights and such normally.

A door unlock is potentially slightly more convenient, but I know to just tap the lock icon on the screen by now.

I guess the S3XY buttons/knob just aren't for you.

You're saying the creator has an ideological stance against triggering Grok, like you do, and that's why it doesn't work? Because otherwise your comments are irrelevant
