time amplifying the nonsense around saltman’s orb grift

features a helluva lot of words while at multiple points remaining entirely incurious about the claims it amplifies

aesthetics is not the domain of purely visual or simply physical

other vein

it's amazing that the paper site has its own little pretty marketing pictures. easily digestible unseriousness!

couldn't ask a bitcoin a question and get answers like you do with prompts! checkmate, atheists

sidebar: I definitely wouldn’t be surprised if it comes to this overall being a case of “a shop optimised by tuning, and then it suddenly turns out the entire industry has never tried to tune a thing ever”

because why try hard when the money taps are open and flowing free? velocity over everything! this is the bayfucker way.

no internet points today, only internet cookies (good kind)

have implemented jwt (used the library, first in the company)

istg these people seem to roll "b-b-b-but <saltman|musk|sundar|....> gifted this technology to me personally, how could I possibly look this gift horse in the mouth" on the inside of their heads

Don't know how much this fits the community, as you use a lot of terms I'm not inherently familiar with (is there a "welcome guide" of some sort somewhere I missed)

first impression: your post is entirely on topic, welcome to the stubsack

techtakes is a sister sub to sneerclub (also on this instance, previously on reddit) and that one has a bit of an explanation. generally any (classy) sneerful critique of bullshit and wankery goes, modulo making space for chuds/nazis/debatelords/etc (those get shown the exit)

Yesterday I saw a link to some podcast/post float by, of an interview with some genml company “discussing people falling in love with, having relations with, and even wanting to marry”, where the ceo is “okay with it”. didn’t click because ugh, but will see if I can find it

and ofc all these weird fucking things will pop the moment their vc runs out or openai raises prices or whatever. bet you they don’t have any therapy contingency for helping people with their ai partners suddenly getting vc-raptured

no, you utter fucking clown. they're literally posting to take the piss out of you, the only person in the room who isn't getting that everyone is laughing at them, not with them

there's some ZAians on this shit too

a "Dennis Kriel" under verdan.tech (and goverdan.tech (and as "Bert du Preez" dupco.co.za sending email as dupcoconsulting.site)))

got some shit from them october last year, and then again last week. and despite previously being told to fuck off, and again told to fuck off now - to which I got a generated-from-AWS-sent-via-their-mailserver-in-ZA "hey we've removed you from our contact list" email (yeah, super normal origin, totally not an autoreply generated by a fucking chatbot). and, well..

I'm old-hat - I actually run my own servers, and report spam and contact abuse@s instead of clicking gmail buttons. I rather hope they enjoyed the pain that came from all of their providers for every one of their assets being notified of their spam operations

(e: obscured the domains incase these fucking creeps run google alerts, then decided "fuck that" and added it back again. let them come)
