Why did you have to post this follow-up? Now I'm all angried up.

I don't agree with hitting children as a means of discouraging bad behaviour, but I'm convinced some adults would benefit from being hit a bit more.

I have said before if we invent time machines their sole legal purpose should be to only travel back in time to when some ass’s mom was pregnant with him and to point at her and say “see this bump? in 25 years he’s going to be an insufferable asshole.”

then we offer mom a pill.

Direct action can be surprisingly effective

[–] pelespirit@sh.itjust.works 40 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I guess i have the "benefit of heighten pattern recognition," because I sense a douche outline.

[–] TheBat@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

I also have the "benefit of heighten pattern recognition" when I'm playing Bejeweled 3.

[–] Maalus@lemmy.world 37 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Gotta love how people don't understand that "nonprofit" doesn't mean "we don't pay our employees and do everything for free"

[–] Mr_Dr_Oink@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

At least they have heightened pattern recognition. That makes up for being dumb as a plank.

[–] Rozz@lemmy.sdf.org 22 points 1 month ago

Wow, his brain must be truly amazing to see that ai is being added to almost everything when no one else saw it.

[–] treadful@lemmy.zip 16 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I have the benefit of having hightened pattern recognition

I gotta start using this.

[–] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 14 points 1 month ago

No, it's "heighten pattern recognition." The incorrect grammar makes it extra convincing.

[–] fubarx@lemmy.world 14 points 1 month ago (2 children)

He's an idiot.

But if Signal wanted to, on the next Apple OSes and current Android version, you can invoke a small, local LLM without sending user data off-device.

Personally, not sure where the value is: composing messages? summarizing them? Both have been tried and they're pretty useless.

[–] Hadriscus@jlai.lu 4 points 1 month ago

Google and co have been trying to extract information from my emails for years. It's presented as a way to automatically make appointments etc but in reality is probably used to build a thorough profile for advertisement

[–] XTL@sopuli.xyz 4 points 1 month ago

Comes from Apple and Google? It will absolutely send data off device.

[–] spankmonkey@lemmy.world 11 points 1 month ago

I wonder what other settings he doesn't accept 'no' from a woman.

[–] Agent641@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago

I've never met a Billy Mitchell that I didn't hate.

[–] TheBat@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

Unlike his 'heighten pattern recognition'

[–] 18107@aussie.zone 11 points 1 month ago (1 children)

The problem is that if you made this claim about every messaging app, you'd probably be right more than 50% of the time.

[–] chicken@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 1 month ago

The problem is people on social media wording their guesses as if they knew something the reader doesn't. "The engineers have already began" etc, just total useless bullshit.

[–] xep@fedia.io 7 points 1 month ago

There is financial incentive to make claims like this disregarding the facts during a bubble, because it indirectly makes the line go up. This phenomenon is most clearly visible in cryptocurrency communities.

[–] Angry_Autist@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

How the fuck is this even mansplaining?

[–] corsicanguppy@lemmy.ca 8 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It's not overtly, as the guy doesn't seem to care whom he's talking over. The guys just an ass.

However, because it could be mansplaining, someone's gonna decide it must be; can only be. Like some fascist screeching "anti-semite!" at the drop of a hat, calling every ass a man-splainer cheapens the term, chills actual discourse and increases the man-splanation amount.

Buckle up.

[–] Angry_Autist@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I hate that I can't block them without making a fucking mastodon account

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 1 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

You reactionary, habitually incel-adjacent dorks realize their pfps and names are in the post, right.

[–] vala@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Still won't be surprised if this happens though.

[–] sunzu2@thebrainbin.org -3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Signal will waste resources on anything but making the app more usable lol

Kinda like firefox

[–] Hadriscus@jlai.lu 2 points 1 month ago (2 children)
[–] sunzu2@thebrainbin.org 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It works sure... But the development has largely stalled.

They could try to level it up with features to march a modern messenger but they are not doing that. I am not sure why.

[–] Hadriscus@jlai.lu 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I'm not sure what you are referring to. Features such as what ?

[–] sunzu2@thebrainbin.org 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Such as proper group call support

Whatevet whatsapp crowd is always whining about.

[–] Hadriscus@jlai.lu 2 points 1 month ago

ah, right. I don't use calling at all, I even forget it's a thing. To me they might as well be text messengers

[–] Blaze@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 month ago

Communities like WhatsApp or topics like Telegram would be great features

[–] edgemaster72@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

!confidently_incorrect@lemmy.world sort of, we won't know for sure until whatever time frame "soon" is has passed though

[–] 50shadesofautism@lemmy.zip -4 points 1 month ago (2 children)

I like this guy. He's got spirit

[–] Anomalous@lemmy.blahaj.zone 15 points 1 month ago

And heighten pattern recognition

[–] thesohoriots@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

A real spunkbubble
