lol we had plenty of warning, the problem is no one gave a fuck

These tricks have never worked for me, I wonder if that has some implication. I can see working clocks in dreams, both the digital and analog kinds. Reflections look normal. Hell, I've looked directly at myself (or a doppelganger?) in dreams before.

So are LLMs reliable for research like that?

No. Of course not. They're not reliable for anything. They don't have any kind of database of facts and don't know or attempt to know anything at all.

They're just a more advanced version of your phone's predictive text. All they do is try to figure out which words most likely go in what order as a response to the prompt. That's it. There is no logic of any kind dictating what an LLM outputs.

So don't even bother locking your front door then?

Pretty much because cops might walk in if there's nothing physically stopping them but they'd have to do a bunch of paperwork if they smash my window to get in. In a world without cops I probably wouldn't lock my doors.

Let's not make it easy for the rando who doesn't know much of anything.

When and why is "the rando who doesn't know much of anything" accessing your home PC?

Home computer? I wouldn't even have a password. If someone has physical access to your PC there are ways for them to get what they want no matter how strong your password is. You just need it to be secure enough to prevent specific people you know have access from getting in. Family, friends, whatever. So basically the only risk is that you use a password that they know you use because you shared an account with them or something.

Me. I'll play Wilson. Listen idk what the fuck that last guy was doing but my take on this character is gonna be a hit, you'll see

reddit bros would literally rather believe they slipped through the cracks in reality than that they misremembered one word for its synonym

You know I've never quite bought the hermit crab shells = houses analogy. They seem much more analogous to armor.

It comes from racist car customization slang, yes.

Of course! Thanks for being cool. It always sucks to learn a term you've been using has a shitty meaning you didn't intend, and some people react to that realization quite poorly as we can see below lol
