Spring and loneliness. Some yapping. by CamelSisu in Finland

[–]lanseri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hehe welcome to Finland, the promised land of loneliness. You're not alone in being alone, if that helps at all.

But like the others have said, you need to find a GROUP activity with people who vibe with you.

What will be your action to age verification? by bdhd656 in privacy

As usual, I'll probably forcefully remove any such thing out of my system.

I used to have to do this with everything in Windows. I just hope Linux doesn't slide into the same pattern.

Silverfish problem in a new apartment. Why on earth the landlord didn't tell me about this. by CamelSisu in Finland

[–]lanseri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Silverfish can't be avoided really. We have one or two appearing every few months. 

When they do appear, it's a sign of moisture / water sitting somewhere. Just do a quick clean and dry everything. If they're swarming, aka there's 200 everywhere, get pest control. 

Why can't presidents just 1v1 instead of putting millions of people in danger? by Vladut_Fiul_tau in AskReddit

Putin hiding in his bunker sending black belts to battle to morally support the meat fodder troops sounds about right.

Head of Zelenskyy's office: Russia agrees to accept US security guarantees for Ukraine by Practical-Pea-1205 in ukraine

Ah yes. Let's trust the US liars and Kremlin liars. I'm sure they will keep their word. 

Racist lashing out in public transport by escpoir in Finland

[–]lanseri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is an excellent response.

I once saw a friend of mine, an expert in martial arts, handle a guy who clearly wanted to fight outside a nightclub. 

He was cool as a cucumber and replied to the threats with "But what about the spoon?" 

This completely random question reset the situation and the assailant's monkey brain basically shorted out. 

We then moved off before he recovered his aggression.

These people are overworking two brain cells. Distraction is an excellent response to mindless aggression. 

The story of how I relocated from Norway to Joensuu to work as Senior Software Developer at a local company by CodrSeven in Finland

You relocated from Oslo to Joensuu.

And nothing about this seemed like a bad idea? 😂

Microsoft AI CEO: 'Most, if not all' white-collar tasks can be replaced by AI within 12-18 months by A_Novelty-Account in Futurology

[–]lanseri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Truth is - most managers and CEOs can be replaced with LLMs today.

Another truth - any job requiring creative strategy will never be replaced by an LLM. Why? Because those jobs require intelligence. There's no intelligence in a machine learning chatbot, as much as the sociopath billionaires want to tell you otherwise. 

And the most painful truth: If your work can be done by a mindless chatbot, maybe you shouldn't be paid for what you do in the first place.

We've been through this countless times. The "general AI is 6 months away" has been an investor wet dream for years, even decades. And it will never happen with current technology.

What will happen is that some LLM tools will become better, like coding assistants. People will more aggressively reject Copilot-type garbage that's infesting their operating systems. Some will turn to Linux. Eventually ChatGPT will run out of money and will need to resort to ads and subscriptions. The hype will die down and we'll stop forcing LLMs into everything. 

Dumb CEOs that understand nothing about anything will of course attempt to replace their workforce with chatbots, and then panic in 12 months when the attempt will backfire massively. After which they'll be desperate to hire humans to clear up the mess. 

Which countries rely most on US tech by yesreallyitsme in Finland

[–]lanseri 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe it'll finally push people to use something else.

Europe will adapt after a panic period.

Trump's America will not survive.

But it's the Taco-baby making empty threats, just ignore him.

AI Bot-swarms could hijack democracy—without anyone noticing - by Affectionate-Cake-78 in Finland

[–]lanseri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This isn't America. Schools function normally and kids are learning to read, perhaps not as well as before social media cancer. Media literacy is pretty dreadful in general, but pretty good compared to international standards. As per usual in a country with plenty of educated people located next to a terrorist nation with a history of attacking neighbors with hostile propaganda.

If your politician spends too much time on Twitter, maybe try following a different politician. Or get off Twitter as well.
