Enjoying afroperuvian sound excursions of Mapambazuko by Ale Hop & Titi Bakorta.

And this 24$ thing runs games from 21 consoles (including PSX). Here is 13$ thing that plays 7 consoles.

Exactly my thoughts. I can buy real PS1 for 50$ where I live, and there are 25$ chinese retroconsoles that are able to run SNES+GBA+SEGA+Dendy+PS1 games (with bad PS1 performance though).

As an ESL: “IKR” aka “I know, right?”. I thought it has kind of passive-aggressive/sarcastic undertext, meaning something more of a “bro cmon this is obvious/trivial”, while it’s actually seems to be quite the opposite - emphatic affirmation of someones excitement about something. Keep in mind, I’ve never heard it IRL as I rarely talk to native speakers IRL, it was just a wrong impression from chats and online discussions.

Personally, I hope that a bio-phage will be created somewhere with 3d-printers in a science lab using amino acid blocks, synthetic viruses, nano-tech, powered by AI that singularly targets the Human Genome only… Release/Hack it across the planet, Unbelievably contagious…

Sounds like Covid19 😅

Anyway, if it makes you feel any better, animals are also driven by self-interest and don’t hesitate to exploit and destroy other species and environment.

I also couldn’t find him directly denying it, and you’re correct those examples in referenced image are no good - in the comments there are video versions of those showing none of them looking anywhere similar to what he did. There are other videos of Macron and Camala doing some gesture, but they are fetching their hand far up in front of them in more of a waving to audience way, so it doesn’t look like nazi salute.

Elon didn’t immediately say “No, I didn’t do the nazi thing.”

He did though: https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1881746484229763524. My hypothesis: he practiced this and realized what reaction it would cause, and did it simply to hype himself up. The whole inauguration event in people minds is now associated with Elon doing “sieg heil” while being high on ketamine.

If system relies on candidates not using legally allowed methods of advertisement (aka ‘propaganda’) that are deeply ingrained into every field of media and commerce, then probably there’s a problem with the system in the first place. Many popular musicians, games or products gained popularity by the same kind of ‘propaganda’ working by the same mechanics yet people were always okay with that.

I agree with this in terms of process, but not necessarily agree in terms of result. If you enumerate the state space of target domain, you might realize that all the constructions there can be achieved by randomly introducing errors or modifications to finite set of predefined constructions. Most AI models don’t really work like this from what I know (they don’t try to randomize inference or introduce errors on purpose), otherwise they could probably evade model collapse. But I don’t see why they can’t work like this. Humans do often work like this though. A lot of new genres and styles appear when people simply do something inspired by something else, but fail to reproduce it accurately, and when evaluating it they realize they like how it turned out and continue doing that thing and it evolves further by slight mutations. I’m not saying I want AI to do this, or that I like AI or anything, I’m just saying I think this is a real possibility.

This is a cool way to put it, but I think even just errors and randomness in reproduction of source ideas sometimes can count as original ideas. Nevertheless, I also think it doesn’t fully encompass all range of mechanisms by which humans come up with original ideas.

The term was likely borrowed from the credit industry’s bond ratings, where “AAA” bonds represent the safest investment opportunity and are the most likely to meet their financial goals.

Oh nice, this makes sense.

Not much you can do other than researching the current consensus. And for the latter you can try to search discussions about its safety. Good query to start with is “is programname malware/spyware”.
