I admit, I'm tempted to read the AI answer when I search something; but holy crap is it a patronizing waste of time. Just now I was searching about a game and the long page of AI answer essentially boiled down to "kill stuff to get stronger," like brah, I know, I'm trying to look up exact formulas here, you piece of shit.

My questions are never answered by it, and when it tries, it's wrong even with follow up info. Man I really could live without it, lol.

Edit: oh, and this is a relatively new game but on both Google and Bing indexes, the first page and a half are clearly AI generated. Same boilerplate nothingburger answers. No surprise the search AI isn't good, it's regurgitating other AI answers. MAN I could live without it.

It's very interesting to hear your perspective. They're getting hit by propaganda, that's for sure, and I see a lot of Mexican-American men in Los Angeles acting the same way. There is definitely a toxic masculinity problem for young Latino men, as bad or worse than White men.

I'm not sure if half your county is lost, but without proper education and upward social mobility they may remain ignorant. Poverty and religion tends to promote ignorance, and Mexico has a lot of that. At least your president and government seems to be doing a fantastic job from what I can tell (although the bar is pretty low). Universal healthcare, public support for affordable EVs... uh, their own national chocolate production(?), I hear a lot of things almost every week. It might not change overnight but that's how you push for better future generations.

I've been getting Trader Joe's fruitie cuties and they taste a bit like Froot Loops, however they use vegetable juices to get the color. They're still not super bold colors, but they look more natural. I'm curious if that's what will happen to Kellogg's cereal colors.

And CachyOS running KDE Plasma is the most RAM hungry setup. I took a Win 11 laptop with 8gb and threw Debian running Xfce and that's using like 300mb of RAM lol

Looks like something you find in Majora's Mask, probably in a desert. At the very least, the horrifying cinematic that plays when Link puts it on is quite fitting.

Like your said they probably know better but I love the idea of a cabin getting shiny smooth metallic plating after it all melts and affixes to the base.

Y'all thinking mules and horses but I'm thinking Satyr for all ones' Greek mythos or demon sex play needs.

Yes, I didn't mean to imply it's a bad thing. Just that it simply is. Plenty of comic artists do that, and I wanted to give context.

Artist self insert, given Lemmy even accused them of being AI despite them documenting everything. That's unfortunately the only way to validate at the moment, although if I'm being honest I kinda dig behind the scenes. It is especially interesting if you can see a beautiful photograph and all the work they put into getting the lighting just right.

I don't buy the bot narrative, but I also won't say this is a genuine jump in Linux users. Rather, as someone who has done statical research before, a sudden jump like this feels like a change in how that data was gathered plus a rather high point on natural variance.

For starters, why would bot behavior change in a month? Any serious bot network would already be on Linux, so unless bot filtering got significantly worse in a single month, I'm skeptical on that front. I suppose it's possible a patch to scrapping plugins happened, or a change in bot sensitivity on the researcher side, or something, but you'd assume someone would point that out.

However, Linux adoption explanations are also iffy. The "Year of the Linux" people point to summer being a factor, or maybe Steam machine release. Maybe someone went viral promoting it and somehow... doubled installs? Seems unlikely, although a small jump can be attribed to these factors I suppose.

But back to the statistics -- all samples naturally vary over time and this can be a major factor month to month as statical noise exists. If it drops back to, say, 7 or 8%, that's probably that factor, although this is much less an issue if the sample is large (which I think it is?). It's also possible there's a change in measurement error, such as Unknowns getting parsed correctly this month, though I'm not sure if that can explain most of the chunk coming out from Windows. I think these are the explanations I'm leaning towards, though (e.g. the Linux was there all along!)

All I can say from my experience is a jump like this is unnatural and usually points to variance and/or measurement error. Rather than the actual population having a change, the researcher does something different that changes results. It doesn't necessarily mean the new results are biased (they might be less biased!), but it also doesn't mean reality has suddenly changed. After all, we're talking about a doubling of the population; if 300 million use the Internet in the US, that's 15 million people changing to Linux in a month.

Hmm ... Bike Courier sounds more like an ideal job in a 15 minute walkable city. In most parts of the US, not so much.

While I agree the price is ridiculous (especially as a non drinker lol) I'm not convinced it's AI. Looking up Brewskey on an image search, you can find images of similar cans going back 3yrs. Very diverse styles, with common themes of monocle and hops.

That said, trying to find literally any info on artists both past and present is proving difficult. Most info is just about how they make their IPAs and any mention of art is all "the art of brewing" which isn't what I'm after. There are quite a few beer can artists out there though so I bet someone willing to search Instagram or something might be able to find an artist who contributed to Brewskey.
