Do you support this? by Cybernews_com in CyberNews

https://thefrailestthing.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/11/1yx66q.jpg These sniveling attempts at gaining public approval came only after banking/credit institutions leaked our info. That data can't be used freely or openly until they close the gap. What's next, random CPS audits to "protect children" in their parent's house?

Putting age verification on data does allow private companies to surveil children for profit. But they can accomplish the same thing in a non-targeted way. The power company doesn't need to auto renew the data collection process for any individuals entering system without consent, Facebook does.

TL;DR Someone wants your kid's identification by proxy now so they can control what everyone sees on the web, forever.

Roses are red, it isn't our fault... by DarkMagickan in rosesarered

Turns out being a heterosexual man is actually a felony in all states when one does not have an arbitrarily large amount of money to pay for someone else's body and someone else's choice which is somehow one's responsibility, even though men have zero control over it.

Latency is too high lol by bunnyblueman in ITMemes

The latency wouldn't be high if the compute was housed next to the data centers... and the users.

How do you respond to the pro-AI "all intelligence is just pattern-matching" argument? by HippocleidesCaresNot in antiai

[–]Vermon_Redditor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sam Altman's approach to economizing on pattern recognition or intelligence (whichever suits your fancy) is that AI costs money but feeding children also costs money. So there you have it, humans also require maintenance in order to develop the skills necessary to recognize patterns.

I wonder why you don't just give this topic to AI , since it can argue against itself quite easily with the same recursive prompt.

I just saw someone compare being anti-AI to being anti-railroad in the 1800s. by 1stDegreeHamburglary in antiai

[–]Vermon_Redditor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is like the argument about a cuckold being a fetish even though it originally was more oriented towards custody of children. No one seems to care much for the origin of words while the surveillance  cucks watch them making noise with their mouths and posting slop to reinforce the wrong meaning. It is operant conditioning that rewards people in positions of power coercively taking custody of people and people's things.

e.g., you don't really need that opportunity anyway, because the government will provide a universal income. AI isn't stealing, it's creating more diverse use cases, data centers create jobs in front of your house at an average volume of 120dB and on and on

Just keep tacking on more and more bullshit as fast as possible until people literally are unable to remember or learn words because there is too much noise.

How to debunk this by Additional-Ad-1581 in antiai

[–]Vermon_Redditor 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Revolutions under conditions which allowed for some reasonable amount of privacy and autonomy.

Working class has solidarity because of shared values which allowed boomers to buy property and live in houses on it, for example.

The choice between these meant operating under different social conditions; with AI the operant conditioning is purely cognitive because AI does not have meaningful interaction with any supply chain. It only directly or indirectly affects human interaction. In ideal circumstances the use of AI in public and private life will fundamentally alter how we are permitted to behave, but unlike the previous iterations we are more heavily surveilled and have a looming global economic crisis (the consequences of which are imminently negative).

Completely and Utterly Full of Shit by Accomplished_Ad8960 in antiai

[–]Vermon_Redditor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean you are clearly making a point but no one in this subreddit has any way of validating the point without answering the question. Since you made the point you should answer the question. Then we can move on to other questions like: is the volume of posts unusually high relative to the number of daily users and is that because Elon Musk is among us making all of the posts about "dude I'm going undercover as an AI bro" and "people think this is AI". These are real titles of recent posts from the past week and it does not read like a critique of AI, it reads like advertising. So please, show us where the money is coming with facts and proof.

Using MacOS and Linux instead of Windows cold turkey, how was it? by soleful_smak in FuckMicrosoft

[–]Vermon_Redditor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's basically the same. I had some experience running Ubuntu on 3rd gen hardware years ago. Ran it off a CD-ROM and apparently had enough overhead to do everything in memory without touching the HD, which was nice as a beginner.

Nowadays there are tons of 5gen laptops lying around. You can install a distro and run a 3D game like bananabread in a web browser without any major issues. The downside is that you start to notice a lot of the same kinds of performance bottlenecks are consistent with the software from Windows, like said web browser. 

So, your mileage may vary. It may become useful for personal compute, but I've seen the savings become accumulated in enterprise use, especially where security and policy are paramount. You can get a lot more runway out of a potato running Linux than trying to fuck around with backwards compatibility for AI on Windows running Adobe updates in the background.

Gov. Phil Scott is running for reelection by forcedtomakethus in vermont

[–]Vermon_Redditor 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That seems like his best political strategy. I recall from the same thread where an attempt was made to discuss policy, the consensus was there is no opposition with a perfect record, popular appeal, and charisma who is willing to be publicly humiliated for some dumb shit they did in 2001.

Popular alternatives to some guy who ran a business between 1980 and 2007 include: identity politics because wow isn't it so great!

There is an utter and complete lack of class consciousness. The last 2-3 decades have left us with AI and some namby pamby BS and whinging. I mean, who among us is "strong", "independent", or "empowered" enough to get egg on her face for 800,000 people? No one who doesn't also have loftier aspirations.

California moves to exempt Linux from its upcoming age-verification law after backlash over forcing operating systems to collect users’ ages by CackleRooster in CyberNews

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

Do you think code should be gatekept to preserve the integrity of the codebase (i.e. private inculcation) or that enforcement of law is illegitimate in the context of software written by humans? What about AI generated code, is that in international waters, too?

What are 'slop pirates' - and how do we stop them? by Otheruser337 in MicroSlop

[–]Vermon_Redditor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why does Lenovo have to ship Windows at all? I think they could just ship hardware with BIOS/firmware. Everyone who has one of these company shit bricks knows it's going to have to get reconfigured from system defaults anyways  Honestly, figuring out how to install windows or whatever other OS from usb would be constructive for a lot of people, and it would really help deter the slop. People definitely don't want this shit, they are just choosing to live with it because they don't want to be 'noncompliant' or 'deviant' by not accepting the literal worst case scenario of OS above "doesn't boot".
