Who’s out here censoring tits? The OP? That’s dumb, you can swear on the internet.
Someone else? Maybe go get a fresh screenshot.
FIVE tits? That’s disgusting, where is it?
I wonder what that last word is.
Tots. A girl with five tots. She has this cookbook:
tats, short for tattoos.
Tuts. She’s very British.
It is a mistery.
Why didn’t you post those 5 boob women pictures?
Why is the word tits censored? Also I am going to see these women with five boobs to evaluate the claim.
Yes, I’m also curious of where the results of such devilry are posted.
To avoid them.
But there are so many AI adult image sites.
Which one?
I miss the internet where we tricked our friends into looking at a picture of a man’s gaping asshole with zero consequences instead of the one where you have to put a little manual strike through “tits” just in case somewhere an algorithm will autoban you for it.
Honestly who keeps doing that crap because things aren’t that locked down fuck sake.
A family member had this “infamous” email chain. The subject was good, not spammy or obvious, but generic enough to be innocuous.
Length was perfect. Layers of FWDs, pages of them. Enough that you scroll to the point that you’re about to give up, but can’t.
At this point you’re not really even paying attention to the email, you’re just sadistic enough to have to reach the end of the email…
That’s when you look back at the email & there’s a woman goatse’ing you with an apple up her butt.
Listen here sassy missy, we need to advance AI. The human workforce is not going to replace itself you know.
if we keep complaining we will never make it to ten tots
I still want to know why tits was censored
Its l worse than that, its got nothing to do with replacing humans. Its entirely Venture Capalist porn full of hot air. Truely amazing how much money is being wasted on a word predictor.
A couple of years back, the official Twitter account of some police force (Maryland?) made a post during a heat wave that was like, “dear criminals: it’s hot as balls outside, can we call a truce and postpone crime for a few days so none of us has to be out there in it? Thanks”
79F/26C is a pretty reasonable day-time temperature…
Depends on the person and what they were acclimated to as the norm in an area. I start to get increasingly disfunctional starting at about 75f, once it gets to 80f it is difficult for me to focus on tasks that aren’t directly related to cooling myself down, and 85f+ my day is a wash
You gotta condition yourself to it. Don’t start at 80F, but work your way up to it over spring.
This is the way to go. Without conditioning I’d die when running at 30C. But with gradually rising temperatures you get accustomed to it. There are nicer things in life but it’s absolutely possible
I’ve spent years trying to figure out how to acclimate it never works, I really wish it would I just don’t think I’m built like that. My solution has been to move to colder places which is having mixed results with the planet heating faster than I can move
Are you a hairy person, by any chance? I am, and trimming my body hair added like 8F to my heat tolerance.
Body hair, I have effectively none barely even leg hair. My head hair does grow in very thick though and this season I’m experimenting with shaved sides see how much it helps
What different people can handle is wild. I mowed yesterday through 98° weather. It was miserably fucking hot, but I wasn’t impaired.
However, when it’s slightly below freezing and we get half an inch of snow? Everything shuts down for a week and no one can function.
Yeah and I thrive below freezing lol. My mood improves, I have more energy, I get very excited and active, bonus points if it has been overcast for months I love that shit. Honestly I think I have SAD the opposite direction of most people
I have a problem with the cold. Mainly that I never know how much I need to wear.
Like a good Northerner, I layer my clothes, and if I wear too many, I end up sweating. It’s terrible to have a sweaty body while my hands, feet, and face freeze. If I wear too few clothes, then I’m just cold all over.
I can’t seem to regulate adequately. I’m always either too hot or too cold.
If it’s hot out, then I’m just hot all over. It seems worse, but it’s actually much easier to cope with.
I just want to be a consistent temperature.
Cool weather, like between freezing and like 20C/68F, I’m pretty golden. On the low end, a light jacket with a sweater, and on the higher end, just a light sweater or something and I’m fine. Anything below zero… I’m generally uncomfortable.
Maybe if you’re down south but us northerners start sweating at 20c
Acclimation just takes practice. Its not like southerners are genetically different. And plenty of southerns have the same problem because they’re willing to pay like $500/month to keep their houses an icebox in the summer and don’t spend time outside in the summer…
While Tru but at the same time southerners have all year long to acclimate to hot weather meanwhile people up north have to go to work in the cold winter half the year and only have the summer to acclimate to hot weather
Lmao, not even at all
I find 27⁰C comfortable when not moving at home.
Yeah, that’s my default summer daytime temperature. But, a lot of that is because I don’t want my hvac unit running 24/7.
I was talking to a bud the other day and we realized that hooking up AC to a solar panel might be a good idea. You usually only use AC if it’s sunny and hot so the solar panel would be in perfect conditions. I don’t think I’ve heard of people doing this, beyond people who just run their house on solar. I wonder if it would be viable or feasable to hook up the hvac to solar and a battery.
Considering AC is the largest electricity consumer in almost any home that has it by a large margin, if you are running your AC off solar then you might as well run the rest of your house off solar. It would be very little extra work.
Blinks repeatedly with mouth wide open in British
Where I live 26ºC is a cool day, when an AC is on 17ºC I’m trembling and smacking teeth.
The WHO recommended a minimum indoor temp of 18º C (and a max of 24º C) for health purposes (and assuming appropriate clothing) back in 1987 (and they still stand by the lower bound, though the upper is locale dependent - e.g., 21-22º in Boston vs 30º in Thailand), so I’m not surprised that dipping below that is unpleasant.
It’s 26.7c @ 62% humidity in my office right now. It’s fine (the aircon will kick on monetarily to bring the humidity back down). However, had you asked me this years ago, I would have thought you were insane. I lived in a much cooler place and people had the air on all summer set down to like 22c. I’ve gotten used to my new climate (well, more used to it, anyway), and it helps that I don’t have to go spend all day in an office whose temperature I don’t control.
Yeah, there was definitely a point where I’d have thought the same. Then I started shifting the setpoint up little by little. It’s something that takes time. But if you spend a lot of time in a place that keeps it way too cold all day, it’s harder to adapt. I guess you could just intentionally overdress, so you are a bit warm despite the cold temperature, but that seems like a waste.
Well, the only different is who use AI to generate trash are rich, and who need power is under-privi people.
“hey lady, priorities!”
Not a fan of disinformation so I’ll post this here as well:
I run ComfyUI locally on my own Laptop and generating an image takes 4 seconds, during which my 3070 Laptop GPU uses 80 Watts (the maximum amount of power it can use). It also fully uses one of the 16 threads of my i7-11800H (TDP of 45W). Let’s overestimate a bit and say it uses 100% of the CPU (even though in reality it’s only 6.25%), which adds 45 watts resulting in 125 watts (or 83 watts if you account for the fact that it only uses one thread).
That’s 125 watts for 4 seconds for one image, or about 0.139 WH (0.000139KWH). That would be 7200 images per KWH. Playing one hour of Cyberpunk on a PS5 (assuming 200 watts) would be equivalent to me generating 1440 images on my laptop.

Daily reminder that two different things can be bad at the same time.

Nothing is bad about a picture of a woman with five boobs
It’s really sad this is downvoted
AI isn’t yet slurping any significantly obscene amount of power from the grid, although as it gets more ubiquitous that will surely change. The individual data centers are massive things but they are outnumbered by orders of magnitude by all the rest of it
The big villain in senseless datacenter power usage is cryptocurrency
Plus most of the rest of it, of course, acres of racks burning through the world’s resources to run the world’s ten millionth pink slime news factory or Youtube click fakery cluster, or whatever
But AI isn’t yet adding its useless weight to the groaning pile in any significant way
Based on what, your gut feeling?
Here’s an article based directly on Microsoft’s own sustainability reports outright saying that their electricity consumption has gone up 30% because of AI: https://www.latitudemedia.com/news/microsoft-reveals-the-energy-impact-of-artificial-intelligence
This is a pretty good article about it, with this being the relevant graph:
Like I say, it’s going to become a significant thing, and I’m sure for the tiny fraction of all the world’s data centers that are operated by Microsoft specifically it already is, but it isn’t yet, on a global scale.
Fair, but it’s pretty much on track to be the new crypto of energy usage. We’re just a few years out for it to get fully ramped up
Sure, crypto is certainly worse.
But ChatGPT uses the equivalent power of 17,000 households according to this article.
In other words, 17 million households can all turn off the AC when they are not home and the savings can run like 100 chatGPTs
Doing a rough comparison: 500k KWh * 365 / 240 billion KWh= ChatGPT uses ~0.076% of the power that Crypto uses.
Just to put Crypto into perspective.
PS: The 500k is from the article (which states it’s per day), and the 240 billion for crypto is the first result I saw from Google, so take with a grain of salt.
edit: I only just now saw which space (?) this is from. Please don’t bully me, I’m only here for the discussion (which so far has been civil).
it’s also completely useless, and even it’s hyped up by the same people who sticked around crypto when it was a thing
Rather than merely wagging the finger at each weekly villain, we should work towards policy that internalizes the cost of energy.
You hate ai because it’s a better artist than you.
I hate AI cause frank Herbert warned us.
We are not the same
Douglas Adams also warned us. Every AI in his books is either malfunctioning or an asshole or both. He clearly had no faith in the concept of AI, especially not what corporations would do with it.
And then Elon tweets this:
Grok is an AI modeled after The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, so intended to answer almost anything and, far harder, even suggest what questions to ask!
They don’t even understand the warnings.
And named after, I think, Stranger In a Strange Land,
Heinlein also had some interesting AI and immortal human themes in his works.
Also, unlike Elon, Heinlein cared more of the future of humanity beyond his own self-interest. Pretty much everything he ever wrote was preaching his ideas on how to make everything work better. Some of those ideas were kind of nutty, but he wasn’t proposing them in order to enrich himself.
Honestly, it feels like being a tech bro requires you to have a brain defect where you read or see something meant to be a warning and it causes you to somehow interpret it as the best idea you’ve ever seen.
Basically sums up the last 20 years of Silicon Valley and their nonstop hopping from dumb to dumber to dumberest.
This guy gets it.
Great book
Haven’t gone further than the main series.
I’m more a fan of Foundation myself but in my mind’s eye they’re practically the same universe lol.
Ah, Brian isn’t as skilled a writer as frank for certain, but he still tells a good story that’s worth at least one read through.
Canon is Canon after all
