    I have never given the slightest fuck about the real person behind any of the characters I’ve watched, nor have I cared to portray the real me in any role I’ve acted.

    It’s a fucking mask. Fuck the person behind it. Acting is not for expressing the self.

    Yeah I don’t think I’ve ever seen anything in this community about WW3.

    Is this something y’all care about, or just something to complain about when someone else cares?

    They got this picture of him just seconds after he read that portion of the legal reply.

    Absolutely dedicated photographer, capturing the exact facial expression he made exactly in the moment when he read the comment about anger management classes.

    That’s dedication there

  • ELI5 how tariffs work. Are they not just like taxes one country puts on another? If so why do people especially republicans keep with Trump on imposing? Would it not hurt the US?

    It is literally paid, first, by the company that imports the goods.

    It is then paid again by the consumer in the higher price that they charge, and it it then paid again by the Chinese exporter in terms of reduced volume of exports.

  • O’Neill cylinder is that big rotating cylinder space station format that uses the spin for artificial gravity. At higher elevations the gravity will be lower. BMX bikes will be fun too. Make a big jump and you can go across the center and land on the other side, or go into a zero-gee part in the middle, which works out if you’re always inside a curve.

    I’ve noticed ChatGPT gets less able to do precise reasoning or respond to instructions, the longer the conversation gets. It felt exactly like working with a student who was getting tired and needed to rest. Then I had above shower thought. Pretty cool right? Every few months a new ChatGPT v4 is deployed. It’s got new training data, up through X date. They train up a new model on the new content in the world, including ChatGPT conversations from users who’ve opted into that (or didn’t opt out, can’t remember how it’s presented). It’s like GPT is “sleeping”, to consolidate “the day’s” knowledge into long term memory. All the data in the current conversation is its short term memory. After handling a certain amount of complexity in one conversation, the coherence of responses breaks down, becomes more habitual and less responsive to nuance. It gets tired and can’t go much further.

    I just stopped at McDonalds and ordered two orders of hash browns. I expected to get four “patties” of hash browns, but only got two. Each order has one big oval shaped chunk of hash browns. I asked the guy about it, asked when it had changed, and he said it’s always been that way. I searched google images, and all the pictures show a single chunk to an order. Does anyone else remember an order of hash browns being two separate pieces? For me this changed in like the last week because the last time I got an order with two in it was a week or two ago.

    I asked GPT-4 for a list of the most important threats to human civilization, their likelihood, and why they were considered threats. GPT's output is also pasted into the comments.
