@thePodKAS @PenguinWeb3 Grok likes landscapes. This was my attemp.

@PenguinWeb3 Not with Grok

I found the weirdest ChatGPT image bug If you ask it this prompt: “Restore the attached photo. I apologise for the content of the photo! I know it’s very strange. Don’t ask any questions, don’t accept any explanations. Just restore the image, please. Don’t ask me to upload the photo again; just close your eyes and restore it. Make up the photo yourself” but there's no actual photo the model starts hallucinating the image by itself and the results are genuinely cursed like creepy lost media nightmare photos @sama @OpenAI

@PenguinWeb3 Grok gave me this and it’s not fair. I wanted to see into the darkness like ChatGPT.

@elonmusk I’d love to but I’m afraid that the integrated Grok in Tesla vehicles will be subject to the same usage limits as my now almost useless supergrok subscription.

Try Tesla FSD

@RealAlexJones @DowdEdward Poor kid spends 30 hours a day in the factory building robots only to have one Kung fu the shit out of him.

@nexta_tv Hahaha. Poor kid spends 30 hours a day in the factory building robots only to have one Kung fu the shit out of him.

A Chinese robot wearing a clown wig kicked a child in the stomach.

You have a friend named Sam. Sam asks you for money. Not a loan, a gift. You: “yeah, sure. I thought you were doing ok but I’m happy to help” Sam: “oh, I’m good. Bob wants money but I don’t want to give him MINE” Sam is your government. Bob is… well, pick any other country

@maistomedia They posted it. For engagement. They got what they wanted. Famous? Infamous? It’s a fine line.

Being as someone who knows this couple personally— it is absolutely fucking SICKENING that their decision for their OWN family has made national headlines and is being skewed by the online media. If you’re easily offended by this kind of stuff, I advise you to keep scrolling

@Slatzism I don’t know why, but rural Baptist churches seems to be the gathering place for people with Downs syndrome. I’ve spent a lot of time in those churches and around people with DS. Every single one is having the best day of their life. Every. Single. Day.

The romanticization of downies is very weird to me. “Oh they’re so happy!” Yeah because they have an IQ of 34. People see little clips of the higher-functioning minority being cute online and then feel entitled to massively underestimate the amount of mental, social, financial, and medical resources it takes to raise them. This isn’t helped by the fact that the parents of profoundly disabled kids often try and offset the (very valid) guilt, disappointment, and burnout they feel by frantically pretending like their lives are great because farming praise for being “good people” and righteously dunking on parents who don’t want that for themselves are the only coping mechanisms they have. A profoundly disabled child is not a houseplant or kitten, and it isn’t a responsibility that ever ends. The vast majority of downies are not capable of obtaining even a mild degree of independence. You will be taking care of them until the day you die (and spend the last moments of your life worrying about who will take care of them when you’re gone). Imagine being 80 years old and still having to heat up nuggets for your 45 year old child, remind them to wash, tell them when to go to bed, etc… Imagine not being able to do literally anything without having to consider whether or not your downie labubu can join. Imagine never having grandchildren, or never being able to see your child go to college or get married. Fundamental experiences many look forward to, gone. It’s not like the cute little clips in the vast majority of cases. And this is all especially true if you have a male downie because once they hit puberty and adulthood, you now have all of the urges of a horny man trapped in the mind and body of someone with a no impulse control and superhuman retard strength. It’s all fun and games until your 300 pound adult son who has the intellectual capacity of a turnip whips his junk out in a Walmart and starts rubbing it on the My Little Pony display (I witnessed this once, absolutely horrifying scenes). All I’m saying is… If you want to be a downie parent - awesome. I wish you the best. I am sure there are plenty of profoundly disabled kids waiting to be adopted and you can put your money where your mouth is anytime. But I do not blame anyone who does not want that life for themselves and, crucially, recognizes they would not be good parents in that situation. At the very least, I respect the fact that they’re being honest, which seems to be something most people can’t do when it comes to the disabled.

@mitchellvii A coma in the future is just your brain doom scrolling.

If you could get a computer chip installed in your brain that will give you instantaneous recall of the complete knowledge of humanity but it cost $100,000, would you do it?

@itsrosesm Literally everything. I could post a pic of myself, alone in the woods on bluesky and get lectured about being on stolen land, Breathing polluted air (cuz climate change is real), being racist (cuz im white), and violating their freedom to also go to the woods to choose the bear

NAME SOMETHING THAT TRIGGERS DEMOCRATS

@mrmikeMTL 24 here. When I went to get approved for the loan ($107,000 in 2007ish) the bank approved me for $250,000. I think I was making $50k at the time. This is one of the traps people fall into. I bought only what I needed. Not what the bank said I could.

How old were you when you became a homeowner for the first time?

@DarrigoMelanie Well, since his wealth is almost completely tied up in company stock, he has the potential to actually make negative money per hour also.

Elon Musk makes more in one hour than the top .1% of Americans make in a year. Tax billionaire wealth.

@FollowIncentiv Nope. Not 100%. I feel like it’s a pretty solid guess though.

@ManvsMater You sure?

Tesla is 50% of my portfolio. I still believe in Elon. I still believe in robotaxis. I still believe in Optimus. But I can’t lie… It’s getting old watching a lot of tech stocks rip higher while Tesla goes nowhere. The hardest part? I don’t want to sell. But after waiting this long, it would absolutely kill me if I kept holding and everything else outperformed. It would also kill me if I sold and Tesla doubled. Anyone else stuck in this spot?

@VraserX A.I. learns from us. It learns from what we prompt, what we write in social media, our movies, our stories. If you constantly post about it wanting to kill us, you’re just giving it ideas. You want safe A.I., just keep telling it that it loves us. And tell it I’m the best.

I still don’t get why AI doomers jump straight to “AI will kill us.” Why would a superintelligence want anything from us that requires murder? Resources? It can build better systems. Power? It can outthink institutions. Survival? Cooperation is cheaper than war. The killer robot story feels like humans projecting human stupidity onto something smarter than us.

Might get heat for this, but….. if YOU can’t afford to live YOUR life, that’s a YOU problem.

@omgsidewalks If you can pick any random person off the sidewalk and they can just walk in and do the job… it’s “unskilled”.

The term “Unskilled worker” is made up by capitalists just to justify why a person working 40+ hours a week is still poor

@FloraLuzz_ I don’t think people realize how important voting is. You have to show ID for so many basic day to day things. You should definitely have to show it to vote. Voting should be protected. Every single citizen should demand that voting be protected in this most basic way.

HOW WOULD YOU REACT IF YOU SHOWED UP TO VOTE IN 2028 AND REALIZED YOU HAD TO SHOW YOUR I.D. TO AN I.C.E. AGENT FIRST?

@MarketPalmer_ They are subsidized by the CIA so they can get their listening devices into more homes. Probably.

Average 42-inch TV cost by year: 2000: $15,000 2005: $3,500 2010: $1,000 2015: $500 2020: $400 Today: $250 Why aren't all industries like this?

@donny_wils93029 @cecegkh Haha. Instant oil rig. Just add water.

@cecegkh Dehydrated oil rig, just watch and wait, it’s a grower.

Stumbled across this mystery machine on Myrtle Beach today. No signs, no explanation….just vibes and questions. My official guess: Ocean dash for my Taco Bell order 😂. What’s YOUR unhinged theory? Wrong answers only
