But did you get high?

(Most AC recipes are for rec drug use.)

I don’t get six-seven at all, but it’s not the first time I didn’t jibe with slang.

Offline LLMs exist but tend to have a few terabytes of base data just to get started (e.g. before LORAs)

The bosses win if winning is continuing to manage the company poorly.

The shareholders lose since cruel treatment reduces productivity and weakens profit margins. It depends on how seriously the business controllers want to actually do a capitalism and create a product and turn a profit.

In actuality, yes, their job is to maximize productivity for the dollar spent, hence maximizing profits, and the best way to do that for most job pools is by improving the QoL of the workforce.

They likely do value control over productivity, but that’s not the job of upper management. A lot of jobs (the bullshit jobs ) are to fulfill a personal need for an entourage, the illusion of business activity. That is a – human – trait.

Our c-suite execs might believe it controlling the workforce is their job, though, if they’re inadequately educated about the current state of the art. Hopefully, their AI replacements will be more current and won’t be interfered with by the BoD or shareholders.

It doesn’t matter. Buddha is Buddha.

Disappointed this is a parody.

There are actual AI-based services to replace company upper management, and take it seriously, since AI in its current iteration is strong enough to manage companies even when its art is quotidian.

Mr. Whipple’s days are actually numbered.

Crunching does not work!

Instead, it reduces productivity to a fraction (often 10% of normal), countering any time added.

You want to improve your productivity, you make your workers happy. Make sure they can eat, have good healthcare, have adequate family life, etc.

We now have studies that counter the crunching myths and time theft myths.

So…a muppet version of the Joker?

If it is, then I failed to get the joke.

The 2025 trash icon no longer looks like a trash can. It’s no longer intuitive. At the same time, I don’t actually keep one on my desktop, so meh.

Andrew Tate is the kind of hyper-masculinist that drove me to walk away from my manhood, so rather than being enby (meh, whatever), I’m enby ( not a man)

All attributes that that were once virtuous of men now apply to everyone, especially all the features of adults: The rest of us are expected to conduct ourselves politely and maturely, and to take care of business. But not men, and especially not rich men.

We use about 20% of our caloric intake (at rest, not doing math) for our bio intelligence. Having superpowers of social organization is expensive and power hungry.

So it’s really no surprise that the computation machines that can run AI require tens of megawatts to think.

Not 2025-12-25, or 12/25/25, or 25/12/25?

I’m confused why we have a 25th month this year.

Also, assuming the human species is still around and celebrates Christmas, there will be a 2525/12/25

Some of us knew Trump had a history of fucking 13-year-old Russian girls, way back in 2016 before the election. The victims tried to sue but were pressured to drop the suits via classic mobster-style threats of violence.

Sadly, my dad is a total MAGA loyalist.

Authoritarianism is far right along the spectrum, and liberalism is center, center-right or center-left depending on the specific tenets set by the movement. (There are multiple liberalisms out there.)

Neoliberalism as practiced by the US Democratic Party and the UK Labor Party is right wing.

I have contempt for Trump over a lot of things, but being gay isn’t one of them, whether or not it’s implied by circumstances.

But I do enjoy that Trump loathes being thought of as potentially gay, even though I imagine he’d fuck anything, including flags and his own daughter.

PS: Stormy Danials spanked Trump with a magazine, so he does have submissive bones in his body; at least a few.

The humor is the same font from which all the Tinder jokes are made: it’s not that they’re gay, but they’ve collectively dug a hole in which they have to hide it and slink away when the evidence reveals itself.

All that said, I think the blow Bubba comment was more likely a reference to prison sex which is situational. For some reason, we have an archetype of a scary black man named Bubba who is in – and often runs – maximum-security penitentiaries.

I thought Dickheads were those who followed Phillip K. Dick and all things Dickian.

Because upper management is less checked, they make a lot of human choices, such as keeping a lot of bullshit job positions open as garden hermits (there for scenery, to look busy).

AI tasked with actually increasing profits may run the business better than their human counterparts.
