Need to let loose a primal scream without collecting footnotes first? Have a sneer percolating in your system but not enough time/energy to make a whole post about it? Go forth and be mid: Welcome to the Stubsack, your first port of call for learning fresh Awful youāll near-instantly regret.
Any awful.systems sub may be subsneered in this subthread, techtakes or no.
If your sneer seems higher quality than you thought, feel free to cutānāpaste it into its own post ā thereās no quota for posting and the bar really isnāt that high.
The post Xitter web has spawned soo many āesotericā right wing freaks, but thereās no appropriate sneer-space for them. Iām talking redscare-ish, reality challenged āculture criticsā who write about everything but understand nothing. Iām talking about reply-guys who make the same 6 tweets about the same 3 subjects. Theyāre inescapable at this point, yet I donāt see them mocked (as much as they should be)
Like, there was one dude a while back who insisted that women couldnāt be surgeons because they didnāt believe in the moon or in stars? I think each and every one of these guys is uniquely fucked up and if I canāt escape them, I would love to sneer at them.
(Credit and/or blame to David Gerard for starting this.)
The bullshit engine has convinced my dirtbag sib-in-law that they can claim squatterās rights on (and take ownership of) the house that they arenāt paying rent to live in.
Theyāve been there a year.
Theyāre gonna be homeless before this is over and I canāt get them to see reason. I feel totally helpless, real big Cassandra vibes. LLMs are sooooo unhealthy for assholes.
depends on jurisdiction of course, but where i live you can pull something like this. it takes something like 30 years of living in the same place at minimum tho
Yeah, its nuts. Theyād have to be resident, pay land taxes, and make improvements for 7 years here. They donāt even mow the grass, the owner does.
these idiots made me feel sympathy for a landlord. I might never recover.
ā¦
As an aside, itās fun to imagine the similar sort of brain damage a chatbot would cause Fox Mulder.
Itās like when Scott Aaronson got me to sympathize with a cop. A sneersmas miracle.
There should be a word for this!
Id tell them to contact local squatters who have exp in this stuff over trusting LLMs myself. But those people will prob not tell them what they want to hear.
