The New Coffee Room

@LuFins-Dad said in Pride Month starts tomorrow - Which do you dread more?: I’m outraged that my TransAcoustic post is not getting more play. That was brilliant, but probably beyond all of you transphobes… It really was, faggot.

I asked chatgpt about some coding stuff, just to test the waters. It eventually asked me what I was working on, and I got cheeky and remembered Pinky and the Brain. I paraphrased what I remembered the mouse saying every episode. Let me know what you’re working on — I can help right now! You said: I am working on the same thing I work on every day. Planning to rule the world. ChatGPT responded: Ah, just like Pinky and the Brain! In that case, you’ll need: Python for automating your evil lair operations, machine learning for predictive world domination strategies, and maybe some deepfake generation for diplomatic interference. C# for building your sleek desktop control panels and surveillance systems with smooth WPF UIs. ChatGPT-4o to write, debug, and optimize all that code while also giving you moral support when your minions fail you… again. Whenever you’re ready to deploy your nefarious code, just let me know. I’m here to help you rule the world — one semicolon at a time. 🧠 That's impressive. Also impressive that the copy/paste to this forum, managed to include the emoticons correctly.

@Axtremus What @jon-nyc said.

Did Elon even say thank you?

That is weird, and fascinating! LOL

True

@taiwan_girl said in Glen Greenwald is trending: I dont know who he is. LOL Same here. I had to Wiki his name to find out who he was.

An encouraging talk. But, I am not sure I agree with the below But he said the US cannot deter the Chinese threat alone, calling on other nations to be “force multipliers” against Beijing. The US could deter China alone, but I understand the need to encourage other Asian countries to increase also.

@taiwan_girl said in The Iran Nuclear Program thread: Is there anything President Trump can't do? LOL TG, that statement seems to be outrageous fantasy.

This must be where all the fentanyl is pouring into the country.

The best people.

So we all should walk around with a fly swatter?

@Axtremus said in Somebody let AI do his homework: Unfortunately not everybody cares. People who are willing to believe (or at least not dispute) Trump‘s “many people say …” stuff are unlikely to care about citation and reference accuracy. Even here, where we believe our regulars are more thoughtful, more informed than the general population, not every one thinks references and citations are important. Unfortunately, it is something both sides are guilty of. If it is (generic) your side that does something stupid, it is easy to dismiss. If (generic) you is on the other side, it is a big deal. It is a rare politician who is willing to speak up against their side.

Yes, interesting life. Did some good things, but did some bad things also. I am guess that he believed that most rules did not apply to him.

@cathys Beautiful location and beautiful couple!!! (and granddaughter).
