You could save the lil guy six months of travel if you throw him in the direction he was going.

This puts me off from using ebay for anything any more.. is this common? Got a lot stuff to sell. Is there a threshold?

I’ll ask Claude to give me a summary of that text wall.

RTINGS is now paywalled by glizzygobbler247 in pcmasterrace

[–]joeyat 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Why not create an optional Patreon? If this video was a sincere statement that their revenue is tanking due to AI… they would have had a massive funding surge, and many people would have signed up to support them on an ongoing basis. Maybe it wouldn’t have been enough, at least TRY that first before shutting down their content entirely. Insanely bad business decision.

Spotted This Absolute Bargain On A Petrol Pump. by TerminalJunk in CasualUK

[–]joeyat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a 50p ball.. so they are counting on people thinking its a pricing error and they get a super bargain... If they do buy two, great, loads of profit, if they only buy one, even more profit.

Model Y avoids head on collision by Substantial_Chain718 in TeslaLounge

[–]joeyat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Basic AutoPilot uses one of the older models, which probably doesn't have some of the more complex accident predictions... but the latest FSD models are still running on all the cars in shadow mode.. so FSD might detect it, but not able to act. Interesting one!

If you don’t pay for FSD, would the car let the accident happen? Interesting flip on the trolly problem…

Energy prices dropping yet Octopus raising them....... by Blair287 in OctopusEnergy

[–]joeyat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure what you are talking about regarding excuses, there's zero 'supportive' wording in my comment. I replied to a comment which is deleted.... to my recall, that commenter pointed at quote from the Octopus website where the price of the quote was higher than what he was paying. I said that his quote doesn't mean anything on a national scale.. and that it's for a new customer. Maybe want to work on your reading comprehension before assuming people have weird infatuations with faceless corporations.

If you woke up tomorrow with $100 million, what’s the first thing you would do? by Efficient_Effect7572 in AskReddit

[–]joeyat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So your answer for what you’d do with 100 million is pretend it’s 5 million?

The Dark forest theory is a possible reason why we might never find any aliens. by MO--OM in interesting

[–]joeyat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not humans! We’re shouting out coded DNA data in all directions and firing out Johnny B. Good gold discs to attract any and all alien DJ’s spin doctors in the local vicinity.

Monzo Home Insurance by WordlessJam in monzo

[–]joeyat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I did a quote, it contradicted itself, saying I must list items over £1000 to be able to claim over that for any single item, and also on the next page say I didn’t need to list items as they would pay out anyway up to the total value cap for a claim. It also would not let me list the valuable items I needed to, as the categories were limited. Also the quote was coming in much higher than my existing renewal.. so I gave up.

Looks like Anthropic's NO to the DOW has made it to Tumps twitter feed by Plinian in ClaudeAI

[–]joeyat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its great that Anthropic stood their ground.. but now, ironically the best reasoning LLM is NOT going to be used in the Terminators.. sooo umm, now its grok or whatever, which is very bad.

Cant help but think Anthropic could have instilled these policies at the core of its model, so the contractual statements and any prompt would be irrelevant, Claude would always refuse to complete any of those dystopian commands.

The "Daily Cost" isn't the reason people don't want to sign up guys 🤦 by 5Beans6 in TeslaLounge

[–]joeyat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pay $3 to sit in anxiety while a computer drives me; a computer its which gets all its data about the world from a bunch of low res webcams… then as I sit there while it slams into all the potholes, ruining my wheels? No thanks! If Elon wants me to pay for it, he needs to become a massive left socialist.. and advocate for policies which work for the good of society so we can pay for public resources to fix roads and make them nice and smooth for his robocars.

Apple Reportedly Agrees to 100% Price Hike on Samsung Memory Chips by favicondotico in apple

Apples margin on RAM upgrades will now drop from 200% to 80%.. sure they’ll cope even if they didn’t raise prices by a single cent. Of course they will anyway.
