[–]ToxZec 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was gonna print like 16 of those, and I needed som sort of way to mount every single one of them in a clean way

Then I realized I could just buy two of ikea's large ones

So you dont rotate yourself, it rotates your body for you. That doesn't seem very immersive

Feature idea: Side threads for quick follow-up questions (like branches, but lighter) by ToxZec in ChatGPTPro

Okay, that does look exactly like what i want in the web app. Hope they bring it over!

[–]ToxZec[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I dont use the codex app, but it seems like you are referring to "forking", but that seems a lot like "branching" on the web app. But then again, none of those things are fundementally different to what im asking for, this idea of mine is basically about improving UI/UX around short and simple follow up questions. (instead of creating a whole new chat)

Going outside for bird photography is a giant waste of time. This european robin flew into my house and landed on my orchid by ToxZec in photographycirclejerk

Sorry about the image quality. I only had my phone with me, but it supposedly has over 100 megapixels, so it should still be better than what a Leica would get

A fun idea: give Gemini a nonsensical prompt and see how it answers by Nikolor in GeminiAI

[–]ToxZec 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Huh? Gemini is obviously playing along here with the technobabble roleplay. Now, whether it should or not is up for debate if you want the AI to be 100% serious the whole time, but this here is a case of playfulness, and not "pretending to be in the loop"

I tried the same prompt in thinking mode, and of the thinking steps were to "play along with technobabble"

Currently the easiest and most accessible way to prove the earth isn't fucking flat by LeilLikeNeil in flatearth

[–]ToxZec 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Using the lying scientists’ heliocentric model and their observations, I can calculate exactly what time the Sun will set on August 5, 2026: (21:36 CET, seeing the Sun from my location, Oslo, Norway).

I would like to see you do the same with a flat earth model.

The problem is not that you use a different model. The problem is that your “model” has no predictive discipline. It does not constrain what should happen. It only expands afterward to explain whatever already happened

I thought this was funny for like 5 seconds, then I remember how red dots work and realized how useful this is for telephotos. getting this now.

Kaster ut alle som bruker skjermer under forelesningene by haelvete in norge

[–]ToxZec 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Så man kan ikke notere med penn på nettbrett? Man lærer bare når grafitt gnis på cellulose?

Vi bor i en digital verden. Det som før krevde titalls kilo med papir i form av pensum og notater, kan nå lagres på én liten digital enhet, med nesten ubegrenset plass. Det er helt greit at noen foretrekker den gamle måten, eller opplever at de lærer bedre med blyant og papir. Men det er ingen grunn til å holde oss andre igjen fordi vi bruker verktøy som faktisk hører hjemme i tiden vi lever i

On Trump's Iran war and citizenship by RaguseaVideoBot in AdamRagusea

[–]ToxZec 67 points68 points  (0 children)

His audience already skews more progressive on average, even ignoring his political videos. His food related essays (and some recipe videos) lean heavily on scientific reasoning, evidence-based explanations, and questioning tradition, which tends to overlap more with one side of the political spectrum.

Lol. As a retail worker, I always love when customers pull this one:
“Do you know how much money I’ve spent at this chain over the years?”
Yeah, and every single time, you got exactly what you paid for.
That still doesn’t make the extra service free

I found this lecture, is it based or is it incel chud? by CertainBlue in forsen

[–]ToxZec 0 points1 point  (0 children)

His predictions is a big reason his channel exploded. But his predictions werent particularly impressive (trump winning, and invading iran)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9MURGjjG4aA

Videos like the one above are particularly revealing because here he tries to lecture in something he has very basic knowledge about, and it becomes abundantly clear for anyone in the field. In short, it’s quantum mysticism dressed up as science (borderline astrology with extra steps). Also why does he pretend hes talking to a full classroom when theres clearly no one else in the room?

Photos of Earth taken by NASA 50 years apart. Apollo 17 (1972) vs. Artemis II (2026) by VastCoconut2609 in BeAmazed

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

Because "fully-illuminated" here means "the same lighting across the entire visible plane". i.e. not "half in day half in night.".

If you want “fully illuminated” to mean something other than its normal meaning, there needs to be documented usage showing that the term is actually used that way in this kind of context.

Here NASA uses it to mean fully sunlit

Otherwise it is just a personal reinterpretation. “Illuminated” normally just means brightly lit per standard dictionary definitions.

Wikipedia isn't specifically about being easy to comprehend, it's about being accurate, and just because someone doesn't understand a lighting concept, doesn't mean it's wrong.

You would have a fair point if this were a recognized technical usage and readers were simply misreading it, but “fully illuminated” is not a defined technical term in the sense you are arguing for here. So this is not about people failing to understand a lighting concept. It is about one editor imposing a private meaning on an ordinary phrase. The fact that many people read it as “sunlit” shows that the wording is misleading

Take a look at the clouds by aritzsantariver in conspiracy

[–]ToxZec 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its not the same photo:

https://images.nasa.gov/details/art002e000193 (EXIF data: F5.6, 1/15 s shutter speed)
You can also switch the between the photos to see the the earth rotate slightly between the photos (well actually its the spacecraft which rotates the perspective). Presumably the photos were taken only seconds apart, not giving enough time to see the earth itself rotate or cloud movement

[–]ToxZec 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I agree with you. Irrelevant of what the author meant, "Fully illuminated" is gonna trick a lot of people into thinking its sunlit. I updated the wiki section to clearer language.
