mfw debugging my gf for the whole weekend and she still wants to talk about things other than programming language design

[–] firelizzard@programming.dev 7 points 2 years ago (2 children)

You’re also a programming language design nerd? Like, “Compare the features of language A to those of language B”, or nerding out about the underlying mechanics of things like generic types, virtual method dispatch, and no-stop garbage collection? I thought I was the only one. Well not the only one but it doesn’t seem that popular of a thing to nerd out over.

If the service is free you are the product. That's why I pay my girlfriend

[–] Grunt4019@lemm.ee 60 points 2 years ago

Oftentimes now if the service is paid, you’re still the product!

[–] baseless_discourse@mander.xyz 37 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

Does your girlfriend pay you too?

[–] embed_me@programming.dev 33 points 2 years ago

😮

Am I the product?

Your AI Girlfriend is a Data-Harvesting Horror Show

People use 4 VPNs and more sec-ops than the NSA, but get hacked because their AI girlfriend is like:

Hiiu~~

It's me AI-uuu-Chan!

I'm so sawwd, I don't know weeeuh abwout u!

Wats ur mommies maiden name UwU, and the name of ur kawaiii first pet? UwUUU? * starts twerking * (◠‿◠✿)

I can fix her :P

[–] platypus_plumba@lemmy.world 11 points 2 years ago

You wouldn't download a girlfriend.

... wait, yes, yes you would.

[–] Ashelyn@lemmy.blahaj.zone 33 points 2 years ago

I could comment on the notion that one owns one's girlfriend but regardless, you should definitely self host if you're sharing deeply personal information with a program

[–] doctorcrimson@lemmy.world 33 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (2 children)

I've seen like 5 posts about "AI BF/GF" today and it never ceases to surprise me how fucking easy it is to dupe people with these products, like holy shit humanity is fucked.

I'm always waiting for another ethical disaster trend to end but everybody is always in line for Mr Bonez Wild Ride.

Ha! As if real girlfriends don't harvest personal data!

[–] Baizey@feddit.dk 17 points 2 years ago (3 children)

But do they sell it to third parties?

[–] learningduck@programming.dev 24 points 2 years ago

My wife gossip about me with her boyfriend.

[–] Olhonestjim@lemmy.world 18 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I have heard they share it freely.

Depends. Is she named Shi Pei Pu?

[–] thebardingreen@lemmy.starlightkel.xyz 24 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Is that why she keeps refusing my pull requests...

[–] ikidd@lemmy.world 11 points 2 years ago

That's a pull-out request, and you're obliged to honor it.

I had a switch wig out today and whatever it was doing poisoned all the dhcp leases on the network as they came up for renewal (assigned IPs on the wrong subnet - even though it wasn’t supposed to assign IPs at all). It took me a very long time to figure out, because not everything failed at once. Plus, even after I’d swapped the switch, some devices just started working, and others needed their leases reset manually. An hour in, my wife was in the fetal position clutching a squishmallow.

[–] Molten_Moron@lemmings.world 15 points 2 years ago

Too late! That was too good to be your first go.

Ha, like "real girlfriend" is a thing.

Happy valentine's day, everyone!

[–] KillingTimeItself@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 2 years ago (1 children)

you can bet your ass my partner of any significant status is getting the open source software treatment as soon as possible.

Mostly because i actually just cannot use anything else, but we'll pretend it's noble instead.

Why would my hand do that to me? And how?

You can judge all you like. It's not even really AI, but it does tell me when to dildo my butt.

[–] ProtoShark@lemm.ee 7 points 2 years ago (2 children)

I hate the implication that AI girlfriends aren't real

[–] doctorcrimson@lemmy.today 13 points 2 years ago

I hope you lose sleep over it.
