Want to wade into the snowy surf of the abyss? Have a sneer percolating in your system but not enough time/energy to make a whole post about it? Go forth and be mid.
Welcome to the Stubsack, your first port of call for learning fresh Awful you’ll near-instantly regret.
Any awful.systems sub may be subsneered in this subthread, techtakes or no.
If your sneer seems higher quality than you thought, feel free to cut’n’paste it into its own post — there’s no quota for posting and the bar really isn’t that high.
The post Xitter web has spawned so many “esoteric” right wing freaks, but there’s no appropriate sneer-space for them. I’m talking redscare-ish, reality challenged “culture critics” who write about everything but understand nothing. I’m talking about reply-guys who make the same 6 tweets about the same 3 subjects. They’re inescapable at this point, yet I don’t see them mocked (as much as they should be)
Like, there was one dude a while back who insisted that women couldn’t be surgeons because they didn’t believe in the moon or in stars? I think each and every one of these guys is uniquely fucked up and if I can’t escape them, I would love to sneer at them.
(Credit and/or blame to David Gerard for starting this. Also, hope you had a wonderful Valentine's Day!)
who up continvoucly morging they branches
yes, I certainly do know how to handle software development over Timn
it is actually kinda incredible that this shit has invented a way to be terrible that we can't actually easily riff off by what's expressable in unicode. an unholy clusterfuck of what would otherwise be be joked about as keming (but isn't because it's straight-up an artefact of the process used to encode visual data from source data, badly), a mindless automaton outputting garbage, and then also the shitty model
and people keep telling me this shit is good
I mean, this one is really good, I got like half an hour of jokes with my friend off it
okay I can't argue with that outcome
wait, was this brain-rotting cognitive hazard posted at the linked page on microsoft dot com documentation? if so they have already removed it
edit: archive caught it
I checked yesterday and it was there, can confirm
what I'm thinking about is for how many years now they have been promising that just one more datacenter will fix the "hallucinations", yet this mess is indistinguishable from nonsense output from three years ago. I see "AI" is going well
Two thoughts:
That this is not just some random AI generated graphic, but from official Microsoft tutorial is unpleasantly unsurprising.
I think the tinm (timn ?) axis goes the wrong way.
It's morgin' time
*morgin' timn
morgin' all muh featues
Mighty Morgin' Power-Sloppers
Microsoft is really putting the "git" in GitHub thanks to copilot.
You have to wonder about that Tim traveler; Merlin?
