@rozeboosje I thought the biggest problem with LLMs was that they're built on stolen work, harvested by mega-corps who gleefully gutted DEI and backed a fascist dictator, with the end goal of replacing skilled workers and selling expertise back to wage-slaves at a premium, while diverting community water sources to quench their planet-burning data centers.

But like, they make mistakes too.

Hey @eightleggedcrow, thanks for the follow 🩷

...unfortunately, @smolbrain has requested I vibe-check you, so...

If you were given the power to create the perfect pet, but you had to describe it in three words or less, what would they be?

I'm going with "lovable squid-kittens".

Using LLMs is like driving a big-ass gas truck.

No one *should* do it, but it can be useful, and you—as an individual—shouldn't *really* feel that bad for doing it under limited circumstances.

But please remember, using it feeds some of the worst companies in history, and *they* (and especially their decision-makers) need to be held responsible for their destructive practices. Every dollar in their pockets helps promote more late-stage capitalism and fascism.

Lastly, If you *do* use it, don't drive like an asshole.

Self-checkout kiosks should allow tipping.

I've done such a good job ringing up all my own groceries that I think I deserve a 20% tip.

@Retepkce idk, I open locks with sex toys on an alt-social platform...it's pretty niche

On Saturday, I was chatting with this woman I met at the gay bar, and when she asked "what do you do?", I finally got a chance to use the line "I'm a niche internet micro-celebrity".

Oddly, she didn't give me her number ‍

In celebration of #InternationalAsexualityDay today, I made a big loaf of cheesy garlic bread for my ace girlfriend, and then we didn't have sex. It was amazing

Can someone make a meme for me?

I want the dino –> chicken –> nugget –> dino nugget meme

but add a parallel track for plant –> impossible nugget –> impossible dino nugget

and one for primate –> human –> soylent green –> green dino nugget.

I lack the Photoshop skills on my phone, and I'm too busy snort-laughing at the thought of it.

Everything in evolution converges on dino nugget.
