Holy cow, no wonder I don't bother with social media. That looks very intense and a lot of work. Do people who promote that way have time for anything else?
I seem to recall that people used to use social media to post pictures of their cats, grandchildren, or drunken episodes that potential...
They don't strike me as a government willing to co-operate or play well with others.
Just a sidenote: They interfered with our elections, too (assuming what I heard about yours is true). They went so far as to threaten harm to the families of at least one candidate, whose family still lives in...
I saw that on a news source last night. If you guys are getting it totally banned, I imagine we'll be next, although I'm not sure our government could demand the sale. At least not with the current dufus-in-charge. So far, here it's just the upper echelon of the government who had to remove it...
Geez, now that you mention all that.....I guess I get my social media fix by proxy, via YT videos - independent journalists, health stuff or other types of compilations.
It was when you mentioned them being a waste of time that it hit me. I often remind myself that I've wasted way too much that...
Ditto, I don't use any social media for anything, anymore. People can text, call, send me a letter or visit me in person. :rofl
That said, most everyone I know that is younger than me are connected 24/7. Their phones are basically an appendage.
By the way, if I had to rely on complex math to live, I'd be dead. So Newton's stuff is mostly way over my head.
The figure 8 solution, I can more easily understand. Sort of. It feels more orderly and peaceful.
Well, see there, I just learned something, thanks. I'd never heard of the 3 Body Problem, so just went looking to find out more about it.
I have to say that it seems you are able to 'engage' with Chat very quickly and come back with answers. How long does it take you to get a response to your...
That's okay, my creative writing teacher once said that about me, too. :D
I particularly like what Chat said about the balance between efficiency and understanding that you posted above. I guess that's my greatest concern, people losing interest in learning and life.
I've read a lot of horror...
I had not before but have now
I know this stuff has been in the works for years but it feels like it's all coming online at once with speed. I'm still getting used to the idea of the chat AI. :rofl
My question: These tools are going to save a ton of time and help people be more productive but...
I've seen a couple of political videos made where the voices were definitely the real ones but it was obvious that the faces were either pasted over top of someone else's or just didn't seem quite right.
Entertaining but a bit spooky because of the potentially nefarious uses.
17 is at scale?
That's nothing, the government delivers mis-mal and fake news all the time. :rofl
You know, my whole life, I've never had one iota of interest in politics. Trump changed that, couldn't believe what I was seeing and hearing. Then we got (and continue to get) our own turn. I...
Can I ask a stupid question?
What is Google and Meta doing with the Chinese data they're scraping from their platforms?
We have so many bills that fall under that category now!
Don't they all? But people have the right to decide if that's what they want to do with their brains. :D
I laughed right out loud when I read that.
I think most politicians are. Many are vain and open to all sorts of gifts - financial or otherwise. Of course, I'm a little bitter and jaded about them these days.
I'm grateful for that if it involves an erosion of citizen rights and freedoms...
