I'm sorry, but seriously fuck him with the rusty chainsaw he used as a stand in for all the insecurity he has.
We are well past "you could do better" and more "needs to be tried for literally working to dismantling the government and ruining countless lives"
Stop with your moral grandstanding. Harm reduction is a thing. Both are bad options, but even assuming she wouldn't have been swayed things would still have been better than they are now. You can do your protest vote in the primary if you want, but those short-sighted actions in the general is how fascism has won.
Regardless, it really just feels like you decided to fuck over minority groups in the US while also making things worse for the Palestinians. Trump is gearing up to start WW3 and the only reason I think they aren't going to nuke Gaza is because they want the land. Not that conventional weapons can't do the same amount of damage.
Meanwhile, you throw women, immigrants, and trans people under the bus because you wanted to feel smug about something. Between wondering if I will be able to maintain rights, or even life, in the next 4 years on top of them literally tearing the government apart and doing damage that will take decades to fix, if it even can be fixed, I don't see things getting back to even how they were a year ago in my lifetime, even if I manage to get to an old age.
I can only do what I can, and I can't fight for people in another country when I'm worried about what is happening domestically. My focus has to be making sure my friends and I are safe. I am exhausted and have no energy left to spare for the Palestinians.
I hate that I have to make that decision, but people like you forced it on me. We told all of you this would happen, and you did not care. I can't help Palestinians if I get arrested for existing or just murdered in the street.
They want to classify all trans people as porn, just for existing in public, and then execute "pornographers", which will largely just be queer people they just arbitrarily classified as porn. It's literally what the Nazis did.
So I really have no sympathy left. Honestly, I'm pretty sure much of the people who refused to vote over Gaza likely just fell for a right wing campaign to split the left. If so, it worked and you fell for it. The people who aren't Trump supporters and didn't vote for Harris are short sighted fucking idiots.
I have no more energy to coddle people like you and if me calling you out for stupidity for letting fascism win "pushes" you to the far right, then you never actually had any principals.
I take Adderall (generic) for ADHD and it just makes my brain not feel "numb" and also helps me not feel quite as exhausted as I had been for decades before I got medication.
It helps regulate my mood, executive function, etc.
Right now it's not working quite as well as normal since the last week or so has had a lot of stresses on top of the political anxiety of being a queer woman, but having been in this state before medication I would be useless if I didn't have it.
Same thing happened after the election for a week or so and I had to ration during that time and I got a stark reminder how poorly depression and ADHD go together.
They might try, but if their goal was to destabilizing western dominance for LLMs making it completely open source was the best way.
This isn't like TikTok. They have a server that hosts it, but anyone can take their model and run it and there are going to be a lot of us companies besides the big Ai ones looking at it. Even the big Ai ones will likely try to adapt the stuff they've spent to long brute forcing to get improvement.
The thing is, it's less about the actual model and more about the method. It does not take anywhere close to as many resources to train models like deepseek compared to what companies in the US have been doing. It means that there is no longer going to be just a small group hording the tech and charging absurd amounts for it.
Running the model can be no more taxing than playing a modern video game, except the load is not constant.
The cat is out of the bag. They could theoretically ban the direct models released from the research team, but retrained variants are going to be hard to differentiate from scratch models. And the original model is all over the place and have had people hacking away at it.
Blocking access to their hosted service right now would just be petty, but I do expect that from the current administration...
I only wish in them what they wish on me. Anyone who has an issue with that is enabling fascism.
Even using LLMs isn't an issue, it's just another tool. I've been messing around with local stuff and while you certainly have to use it knowing it's limitations it can help for certain things, even if just helping parse data or rephrasing things.
The issue with neural nets is that while it theoretically can do "anything", it can't actually do everything.
And it's the same with a lot of tools like this. People not understanding the limitations or flaws and corporations wanting to use it to replace workers.
There's also the tech bros who feel that creative works can be generated completely by AI because like AI they don't understand art or storytelling.
But we also have others who don't understand what AI is and how broad it is, thinking it's only LLMs and other neural nets that are just used to produce garbage.
I know some people on the left have to be the "better" person and all thay but honestly with all the damage republicans have and are doing, I honestly am happy they died of their own stupidity. Prevents them from doing more harm.
Fuckem.
Honestly, M is a better name than X anyway, mostly because it doesn't sound like porn.
Years ago I was in the phone to my mom and she brought up that some blue states were allowing abortion up to birth. That didn't sound right so I looked up the one for New York and read it.
Was the most plainly worded bill I'd ever seen. Basically laying out life of the mother or nonviable clauses in the 3rd trimester.
I read it to my mom and she still didn't believe me. Like, it was the primary source and she still took fox "news" over it.
There was also a time when I was like 13 or something where she talked about after birth abortion by sucking the babies brain through the soft spot or something horrible like that. Even then, non political and a fucking child I could tell it was bullshit.
Kids are not property. They are their own people and whether you like it or not they can be gay or trans. You can't beat them out of being queer.
If your kid doesn't feel safe telling you who they are the that's on you.
I'm ADHD and probably autistic. I wouldn't consider any theoretical children I could have as property nor dismantle programs people rely on to survive.
Being autistic and a greedy asshole is not mutually exclusive. There's a big difference in not understanding social queues or whatever and having a breeding fetish or whatever he has when it comes to kids.
On top of all the other horrible things. Like Trump he desperately wants praise and such. Its why he lashed out and called that one guy a "pedo" because he felt upstages when he couldn't be the one to take credit for saving the kids, not that he cared about the kids.
