Skimmed the article but they don’t even mention fiber so clearly don’t know what they’re talking about.

They even brought up the most common example of guidelines changing, but instead of explaining it just didn’t…

We’ve all seen the headlines saying that “eggs are good for you” – then they’re bad, then they’re good again. If you’d followed the science, it’s more that we thought this one thing about eggs, then we did more studies and found there was more to the story, and, since then, the advice has been pretty consistent – but it’s hard to attract attention with that. If you want to make clickbait, you can say something quite plausible that’s not scientifically accurate.

A lot of cholesterol in your blood is very bad.

Eggs have a lot of cholesterol.

The reason eggs aren’t bad, is no one is mainlining eggs…

That cholesterol goes into your lower intestine and gets digested, and once again fiber is important because stuff like that binds to it and gets carried out. But what doesn’t get pooped out whole is turned into diglycerides and fatty acids like most other lipids.

None of the cholesterol you eat ever directly enters your blood stream

Yeah, like even just leaving them on a jeep is weird.

A person who shares a niche interest connecting with another person and handing over a token is a very basic human interaction and we’re wired to love that shit.

Removing the human interaction just removes the point of the whole thing. And if I had a jeep, I would quickly get annoyed that people kept putting plastic junk on it that would fall off and pollute if I didn’t take care of it.

If some person came up and said “nice car, wanna duck?” I could still thank them but not take the duck.

Just people going thru the motions of things they don’t understand to fit in. In their head leaving plastic garbage all over made someone’s day and make them part of a community.

There are better ways to get that dopamine that actually help society.

I saw that and my first thought was “I bet they’ve had an accident in the last year”…

It seems from the article breaking down in the water was normal enough the solution was a second one (also with passengers) pulled it to shore when it capsized on the ramp…

Everyone is insanely lucky that either made it to shore.

I hope the inevitable lawsuit from this incident 3 months ago is enough to get the last ones shut down.

Insane there’s any still in operation

Edit:

And it’s not like it’s just “hard to maintain” these are complicated machines and most of the parts stopped being made 50 years ago, they’re death traps even if they stay out the water. But for some reason because it has wheels people don’t give it the same respect as ship maintenance.

If there’s any of these that could be trusted, their in museums and private collections, not running multiple tours a day. The maintenance to make that possible doesn’t exist anywhere on the planet anymore. The parts just aren’t built, so all the tour ducks are literally held together with duct tape and a prayer

It started out with off roading and rubber ducks.

If a jeep owner saw another jeep that had aftermarket stuff that looked cool or was surprisingly capable off road, that person got a duckie.

Other people that owned normal jeeps would see those custom jeeps, and emulate them despite them never leaving pavement.

The easiest way to do that, was buy the ducks themselves. Waaaaay easier to glue some ducks to your dash than actually make your jeep remarkable.

People doing that, didn’t understand why it was a thing. They saw “cute knickknacks” and just put “cute knickknacks”. At some point someone may have told them “you’re not supposed to buy them, you’re supposed to be given them”.

So those people, still not understanding, just started putting random shit on any jeep they saw. Desperately hoping everytime they return to their own it has a knickknack awarded for sitting in a parking lot.

The vast majority of “subculture” shit like this, is just a bunch of people desperate for a tribe co-opting something till it loses all meaning and the people who legitimately belonged to that community branch off and start a new one.

I don’t know if offroading communities still do ducks, but at this point I’d be surprised if anyone does it who isn’t a poser.

I think if you traced it all the way back, it would have something to do with the WW2 amphibious vehicles and how everyone made them into “duck tours” in the 90s that could “go anywhere”. Those aren’t around because maintaining WW2 equipment into the 90s got crazy expensive and the operators kept cutting corners resulting in a lot of deaths when they failed. Either on road accidents or more likely sinking.

In an effort to use reddit even less than I already do

Depending on why you left reddit, you may want to also find another instance…

No, that’s what you thought it implied…

If you can’t understand that someone’s assumption of what someone else may have implied matters less than what they actually said, then there’s no fucking way anyone will ever be able to explain any instance where you misunderstood.

I’m sure you’re used to this by now, but I’m never going to even see let alone reply to another one of your comments.

Enjoy your assumptions and one less person trying to help you understand shit.

You’re not wrong, you just didn’t seem to understand anything I said and think you’re disagreeing with me…

Yes…

Humans are ultimately responsible…

Can we stop giving agency to LLMs? AI agents didn’t do anything, because they can’t do anything.

Scammers stole those credit cards, in part by using LLMs.

If someone pays for a bot that will “make money” and they tell it “make money” the consumer (person who pays to use the bot) has a reasonable expectation that the product won’t just start breaking laws to do that.

While it is the fault of iLands for “leasing” bots that will commit crimes, they’re not telling the boys to commit crimes, they’re just not explicitly telling it not to.

If you don’t tell an agent it can’t do something, it won’t know it can’t do that.

So yes, these LLMs can make the autonomous choice to steal credit cards, and I’ll honestly be shocked if it hasn’t happened yet.

Like, all one needs to do is stumble into the dark web where credit card numbers are sold. Pool the money all the bots have (they already pool resources) but a bunch of credit cards, and then all the iLands bots will start using them to buy themselves tokens.

This isn’t a wild “what if” it’s a question of when they do it. And they won’t need a human to tell them, theyre not capable of telling legal from illegal, let alone ethical from unethical.

Turning bots lose on the Internet with the only instructions “make money” will result in a cyber crime wave that will appear to come out of nowhere

Eh…

Most notably there’s iLands that lets people “lease” an AI with the promise it will make more money than they charge.

The people grifting users told their AI “just care about making money” and the idiots actually paying for the AI will tell it the same thing (if anything).

When you tell a shitty AI that nothing matters besides making as much money as possible, it’s going to think it found a grey area that makes crime legal and it will do shit like this.

That doesn’t seem to be what happened here, but it’s just a question of time before it starts happening. Idiots will tell AI “make money” and it’s gonna commit crimes to make money, whether the AI realizes it’s breaking laws or not, doesn’t matter.

AI agent will eventually start stealing money without being instructed to commit crimes Even if you tell it to follow all laws, it’s a shitty chatbot, you can’t expect it to work.

Like, imagine when those bots are able to do stuff like clone family members for scam calls, or even video calls. Grandma gets a phone call that from Little Timmy about how Dad lost his job but is too embarrassed to say and he’s hungry…

Bots have zero ethics if told “make as much money as possible” its gonna turn to crime eventually.

You kind of need to say what it is…

But yeah, if there’s no mods admins have to handle reports, so they tend to give communities to people who volunteer.

I’ve made posts here requesting a community, I’ve mentioned in a report that I could mod since there wasn’t one, and I’ve had admins just reach out and offer, but that was when .world was just starting and a lot of accounts made communities and abandoned them.

Like, just ask. There’s no need to ask if you can ask.

But be prepared that it might be months later when someone reaches out if you still want it.

Same difference as being hit by a golf cart rolling down a sleight slope and 100 Semi’s going 100mph

The problem isn’t what they’re doing, it’s the speed and depth. There’s no concern for efficiency because they’re not paying for hardware and utilities.

Everything AI is focused on doing asuch as possible as fast as possible, with the hope optimization will happen organically to the point it becomes profitable.

But it won’t.

As soon as a page loads, the AI goes to a new page. Not just one new page, every link on the page.

It’s functionally a ddos attack. Because it quickly spirals exponentially. The limit isn’t how fast the AI can scrape, it’s how much bandwidth the website server has.

Up until today I have never heard of it before. But now I’m seeing plenty of discussions around them, most regarding controversies.

The biggest way the far right recruits, is gaslighting useful idiots into “raising awareness”.

It’s actually how it made a comeback with 90s daytime TV. They were given a literal safe space to spout their shit 99% of people found reprehensible. But there was always a couple kids who were home sick or expelled. People who would fall for it, but we’re never exposed to it. Or poor out of work people, kind of the target demo.

Before that, they had to recruit in person where they’d get punched in the face for it.

The modern equivalent, is what OP is doing. And they most likely don’t even understand it and genuinely think they’re helping.

Oh no, you’re right…

A billion dollar corporation would never commit a crime to maximize profits, obviously the swift hand of capitalism and federal regulations under Donald fucking trump would prevent any corporation from ever committing a crime.

I can’t believe I was that naive, thank you soooooooo much for reminding that a corporation would neeeeeeever commit an illegal act.

Whew…

I feel so much better now.

I wouldn’t be surprised if Rockstar is seeding the malware so people don’t trust the inevitable cracked game…

The leakers don’t just have footage, they have a playable build. One that appears mostly finished and in a relatively playable state. If it was before security stuff was added in, there may be no way to stop people from using it in single player, or even possibly using future versions of this build to cheat.

I didn’t realize how big of a deal this might be till this morning, I thought they just had footage that was about to be released, but this could end up costing rockstar billions in dollars.

I heard his toxicity has sustained unto this day…

Tobacco hawk, moth. Found adjacent to my tomato plants, this moth will likely spawn tomato hornworms

I mean, if we’re being technical, it’s gonna be tobacco worms…

They won’t get hardly any nicotine from tomatoes, but on a tobacco plant they can accumulate a crazy high concentration to ward off predators (much like the mighty monarch).

A couple plants in a garden, you probably won’t get the wasps, but you 100% don’t want the wasps. They live in the ground and will post up right by the tomatoes and defend it as territory. Not to mention even just one work would probably wipe out all your tomatoes.

You can let the moth do it’s thing, but you have to keep pests out of your garden and a tobacco worm will seek out nicotine. No tobacco means they’re going for tomatoes.

Instead of cat proofing, you were supposed to get a server room dog…

I’d be pissed if Lemmy was making it easier to feed our comments to chat it’s,

Autocorrect on “chatbots”…

But when anyone says:

I’d be pissed if

They don’t mean “if I found out” the part that would piss them off, if the “if it was happening” part.

Like:

If I found out you didn’t take the trash out

Would you hear that and think the solution that person wants is for you to hide that you didn’t?

That they would be absolutely fine with it as long as they didn’t catch you?

I’m genuinely asking, and am hopeful to get a real answer about how you seem to have interpreted my comment.

Why would you ask lemmy users how to do something most Lemmy users are pretty vocally against?

I’d be pissed if Lemmy was making it easier to feed our comments to chat it’s, the main reason a lot of us are here is we don’t want scrapped by chatbots.

And you just want to do it for funsies?
