Sometimes I get sleepy, but my brain doesn’t stop thinking. I listen to storybooks with music to help me sleep. When I try to count sheep, I end up daydreaming. And when I listen to music, I forget about it and start daydreaming again. If the story is super interesting, I stay awake longer. But the most sleepy audiobooks for me are the boring ones or the ones I already know. Today, I’m trying to write my thoughts down, maybe it will help me stop thinking so much and make my head less full!

The context window is still too short for any story. They just forget about old messages and only remember the newest context.

Embarrassing, considering how un-creative and original GPT-4 is. It’s an actual struggle to get ChatGPT to think outside of the box. Claude 2 on the other hand is much better at it.

But this goes to show how unimaginative the general population is if this truly is the case.

You can’t have democratic elections when the rich can just pay the poor a few bucks and have them vote whatever they want, which is what happened in the case of the previous government.

The coup is more democratic than the previous government. Niger coup: 78% of people support military government’s anti-colonial policies

Will try it, thanks. https://f-droid.org/en/packages/org.koreader.launcher.fdroid/

This is similar to an idea I had some time ago but it was too difficult for me to implement. I’m happy to see a similar program being develop. Though using Jellyfin, Sonarr, Radarr, seems too difficult for the average user, with so many interconnected programs. I wish there was a simpler alternative.

My idea was:

A program that combines the features of Mediarepo and Fopnu, connected to a metadata database like MusicBrainz. The integration with a metadata database would enable users to automatically curate their file collections and contribute to the database by curating files that haven’t been curated yet. This would allow for efficient organization and easy searching of files based on their metadata. Users would also have the ability to create collections and download entire collections instead of searching for individual files.

The maximum likelihood estimate date for AGI according to metaculus is 2027

After we achieve AGI you don’t need to send humans anywhere because a robot could do anything a human can and probably better.

And this Kurzgesagt video explains how asteroid mining could be done. Unlimited Resources From Space – Asteroid Mining

You are right that it wouldn’t make much sense going to other solar systems or invading alien planets when there are so many minerals on asteroids and planets closer to Earth like Mars.

I don’t know, perhaps they want to double the budget and they need a better excuse.

The only question you need to ask to determine practicality is, “What is the return on investment?” We don’t mine the seas or asteroids because they wouldn’t be worth it. However, as soon as the technology becomes cheap enough, you can bet that there will be investors putting money into extracting resources from those locations. The same principle applies to other planets – if it’s profitable, it will be pursued.

For the same reasons we would visit them, for cultural exchange or to steal their resources in the case of the US empire.

All this talk of national security is eerily familiar… They actually did the same after 9/11. I think they are just trying to get more military funding for a war against aliens that never comes, and drum up fear so they can take away even more rights from the people, all in the name of “national security”.

Because China and Iran are invading countries every day the same as the US. Why don’t you mention Cuba too, who is considered a terrorist state when all it does is send medics instead of troops like the US and calling them “humanitarian aid” while they kill civilians and children. The US and Israel are the terrorists.

You say whatever the tube tells you to say. And anyone who disagrees is spreading disinformation.

🙄 like a parrot repeating whatever it hears. Wake up!

BBC, CNN and old those also have videos, base your accusation on something so I get to criticize it too, don’t just talk out of your ass.

The median salary in China is 26,800 Yuan (USD 3,855) per month. ^[1]

That’s nice but the thing is if you posted those side effects on Facebook they would have to remove it because of the US government pressure. What do you think about that? Shouldn’t people be able to share and read those side effects on any platform they choose online?

What? It wouldn’t be the first time they have documents leaked. Last time they may have even changed their name to Meta because of it.

Some experts believe that the name change from Facebook to Meta was an attempt to stave off the tsunami of bad press following misinformation on its platforms, content moderation failures, and revelations about the negative effect its products have on users’ mental health.
