  • Why would it need to create energy and mass out of nothing? Why are assuming the energy either comes from nothing or wasn’t already there. Or better yet, that nothing as a source is a problem to begin with?

    Conservation of energy applies to a universe. There are no such rules written out for imaginary multiversal mechanics. The “but mass and energy” thing gets thrown in the trash long before we reach this point, we stopped talking about matters of mass and energy two paragraphs ago. It’s the same as asking “but why CAN you fly in your dreams? What about gravity, what happened to it?”.

    They don’t exist. No one can prove otherwise yet. They’re as bullshit as whatever we want them to be.








  • User agreements aren’t really enforceable, and in this case, there would be a LOT of pressure on the side of fighting for the right to use public comments externally.

    Because if reddit got their way, then that means publications can no longer cite Twitter comments. And if publications can’t rob Twitter comment, then they fucking die.

    No, I don’t agree with the bot mirrors either. In fact, me and some friends found a 4chan mirror last month that was plastered with ads and replaced all instances of anon or a board name with some other words. The concept just feels scummy.


  • Except it refuses to aknowledge wrong knowledge or impossible methods. Until you tell it so, at which point it will agree with you even if you are also objectively wrong to tell it that.

    I’ve coherced some systems into doing things they were absolutely not initially meant to do. ChatGTP would straight up tell me wrong and misleading ways to achieve them, and would be too ignorant to realize with enough stubbornness and with existing obscure info and the right mindset, a correct one existed. And at no point, not even with prodding and handholding, would it be able to have a useful conversation surrounding the why’s of the current state of art.

    It’s not an expert system and it’s stupid as fuck to treat it as one.
