100%! That is why I always set it as my top priority to say yes to friends and family (as long as it is reasonable) or do spontaneous things with them even when I do not feel like doing anything that day. And some friends are really hard to schedule anything with because of life so you need to take the chance when you get it haha.

I feel the best when I am with the ppl I care about, covid really showed me that. So I do understand why some who do not have friends or family may create some kind of unhealthy relationship with GPT just like some create unhealthy, even obsessive parasocial relationships with youtubers.

I have tried talking to GPT as a person but it feels extremely uncomfortable and hollow. With a human do I get stimulation, like knowledge, they challenge my view or ideas and give me different perspectives, I feel that really helps me understand the world better and I miss all of that from GPT, it isn’t even creative and can not inspire me with new ideas but maybe that is a good thing if ppl tend to follow its instructions.

Do you talk to it? Other than giving it tasks.

Thanks for giving me a real life example.

I still find it hard to understand the emotional attachment to LLMs and why people believe their ideas (like the guy in the article). But I find her story to be a lot more understanding. It adds another layer, and it made me think.

It sounds like she is too overworked and stressed to make decisions or even think for herself, so she lets GPT do it for her. I assume it works most of the time and is a big help for many things that the baby daddy could had helped with instead if they were still a happy couple. I assume the biggest drive to use it is so she can turn off her brain. Which is why she has become dependent on the only stable and consistent thing in her life (that is my assumption about how she feels). Maybe that’s mostly how it goes, starts with using it as a tool and then you get lazy (for lack of a better term) and it keeps snowballing from there.

I feel for everyone involved. I hope she gets better soon, and I hope you do too, being overworked and stressed really destroys you and the people around you in many ways.

Sounds to me like it’s mostly about luck whether you fall into that hole or not, or a lot of people would rather believe in something even though they know it isn’t true or the chance is extremely low, like trying to win the lottery.

I’ve never met ppl irl who see LLMs as more than a digital tool that can be wrong (at least not to my knowledge), so that’s why it’s hard for me to understand (because I haven’t been able to ask). I understand it can be nice to be heard, but to me an LLM is very hollow, there is no experience behind its answers and you can tell it doesn’t care or try to understand (also why I do not understand the attachment). I actually get more frustrated than happy when it says empty stuff like “you’ve got good instincts!”, doesn’t challenge me at all in my decisions/statements (even when I ask it to), or when I ask for inspiration (its creativity is extremely lacking). I feel the same about ppl if I think they aren’t trying to understand and just give me empty replies, like a salesperson reading from a script.

So that’s mostly why it’s hard for me to understand, even though I know mental health and loneliness is a big part of it. I still don’t understand why people can feel attached to LLMs and go so far for/with it. Echo chambers with actual ppl are a lot more understandable, that makes sense to me. LLMs do not.

Wow, that is a big mix of anime isekai, vegetarian, delusions and religion/spiritual ideas, in a very dystopic way.

I think this is both scary and very interesting. What kind of person do you have to be to become addicted like them? Is this the same as gambling addiction? Do you need a type of gene? Would this type of personality be receptive to hypnotize, cult, delusions about their idol and so on? Or is this something that can happen to anyone who is depressed and feel lonely? How did the llm even earn enough trust? In a cult is there a lot of ppl reaffirming so it is a lot easier to understand.

It is so hard to understand even tho I really want to. I have never cared about an object or idol/celebrate. AI can I never even take serious as a living beeing, the only emotion it triggers are frustration and how you feel about a tool that works as it should, so pretty apathetic. Do you need to be very empathetic towards objects? Like seeing faces in everything and get emotionally attached?

A lot of questions that I do not think anyone here can answer haha, but maybe one of them.

Can someone explain why it isn’t just a boolean that say is adult or something like that? Maybe I misunderstood but it seems like the new California law would approve that.

But I would rather the parents to use parent control.

Yes unfortunately, so now I walk around with a proteinbar in case it dropps too much, but the best solution is to eat actually food before that happens.

Edit: I saw in the comments that you were looking for true fasting for minimum of two days, I have only tried for two days twice and my body went into lockdown. I couldn’t move and it felt like I was depressed. I do not think my body can handle it. And I do not want to waste two days of my life again just laying down being not able to do anything. But I will keep my comment here if ppl are interested in my other experiment with some of the same benefits when it comes to how I felt and my well-being.

I did an experiment where I didn’t eat normal food for dinner I only mixed veggies, oatmeal and water and drank it and ate an apple as a side dish.

My lunch and breakfast was not changed much. The only change to my lunch was that I started eating sweet potatoes instead of pasta.

I have problems with low blood sugar and hunger so I wanted to test if I could lessen it with potatoes (and meat) for lunch and oatmeal and veggies for dinner, especially oatmeal, it has a lot of good health benefits like keeping the blood sugar more balanced, lessen inflammations and making you feel fuller for a longer period. The first month was great, I didn’t feel hunger in the same way anymore for the whole day, I had more energy, my blood sugar didn’t drop like a bomb around meal time and I was happy. But then I started experimenting with tastes, I used milk instead of water and then also stoped adding celery (did not go well with milk). Tried using berries and other types of veggies or even less veggies and more fruits. After maybe 2,5 months did I feel really hungry again like extremely hungry, it hurt in my stomach in a way I have never felt before and I got migraines and felt like shit. So I stoped the experiment. I think the whole experiment was around 3 months. Now do I eat like normal, the only thing I still do is eating an apple almost every day after dinner. And I crave crispbread that has an extremely healthy taste to it in the evening… It is very weird.

I would like to try the experiment again to see how long it takes until I feel like shit and also write down what I mix together with notes on how I feel, to get a better understanding of what happens and when.

If it wasn’t because of this

As it stands today, GrapheneOS is exclusively available on Google Pixel devices. Whatever device Motorola is building with GrapheneOS, it’s beyond even the Motorola Signature’s specs, which is currently the “flagship” in Motorola’s lineup, as even that doesn’t meet the needed requirements.

I thought first maybe one year, but that statement made me very sceptical if that is possible.

I thought I would use the free games on epic as a demo for games I would like to buy at steam, turns out I just buy them at steam, I never play them on epic, I think I tried out two games in the beginning of the whole give away but that is it

Happens often and most of the times is it because of a misunderstanding. Usually we actually agree with each other but we think we are disagreeing and arguing about how the thing we agree on is correct. I have seen this happen with two coworker many times and it makes me laugh every time until it gets too serious. I actually had this kind of “discussion” yesterday, my coworker said he couldn’t see change x in my PR and I told him how it was before and how it is after the change and then it became heated (I assume it is because he wrote the code and the tests) he stepped back when I told him even the tests expected the faulty state then he understood what outcome we needed and saw that the change was there and it was actually correct.

I feel this way too, between 2005 and 2010 could no one show me a videon from youtube that I hadn’t seen (well maybe but it never happened). it was so “bad” that my friends stoped linking videos because I had seen it already lol. Now is that impossible! Unless it is a person who watch the same youtubers as I do which is mainly makers and creative ppl. This is also why YouTube rewind would never work for me anymore.

I felt that most ppl on the internet was like minded ppl and we had a culture going on, now does it matter more what platform you are on and it feels more like part of your real life. I haven’t seen ppl use IRL at all for example and I assume it is because the difference is not as clear anymore, the two world’s have mixed together. I remember we talked about our real lifes as if that was a whole different universe almost.

I feel you… Been there… Too many times until the hobby was just a frustration and not a hobby anymore.

Are you sure you can’t fix the z offset? My old printer was as bad, I had to manually level it (because the auto sucked )every time and I need to do it a bit closer than the auto level wanted it to and the instructions said. It was so close the first layer was extremely flattened, and I had to try many times to level it. First did I only need to do the bed leveling perfectly (a bit too close) then after I switched to glass did I have to play with the sensor (screwing it a bit further away than their instructions). I did both calibration for like 15 min to an hour… But when I had got it right did it print beautifully! I think if I let it on until next time then I wouldn’t need to do the calibration, but it was loud so I had to turn it off. Btw i think mine was just weird that it calibrated it self only when I started, as in how high up it should be for the first layer so I could just screw up the bed to get it closer.

But now have I switched to bambu lab (enclosed) and it is so easy that it is scary, now I actually trust it and can do big prints that will take more than 3h. I only hit print and it works right away it felt so weird the first 10 prints. I felt empty, my job had been taken away by a robot. Should it be this easy? Why can I use the default values in the slicer? What do you mean I can have it on its default speed and not needing to do it super slow in the beginning? Crazy stuff. It feels like an adult and my other printer was a chaotic 6 years old, they can if they try but they didnt try most of the time…

Also have you tried placing your creation in any other z axes rotation or moved it a bit from the center? I had one print that worked ape shit every time in one direction, switched it a bit and rotated it and then it worked right away. But yours seem to have worked well until it start lifting off from the bed so I think playing with the z offset is the way to go. Be careful tho I switched to glass because it was hard to get it off afterwards, with glass did it pop off right way when the bed wasn’t heating up anymore.

Other stuff: I had heat on at 60 at all time and it was pretty hot in there because of the printer (the room is normal room temperature otherwise), maybe your room is too cold for it, could you build an enclosures? Or is the table it is on shaking a lot? Glue and tape and whatnot never worked for me.

Unsure what my parents did but I love and loved my sister. In our case do I think it is because we understood each other so well and gave each other space. We both were good at compromising “if you pick today then I can pick next time” that kind. We had a lot of deals like that between us.

rquickshare This is not an app for the phone because it uses the app you already have by default (nearby share/quick share), it enables you to use it with your Mac or Linux computer on the same lan so you can share your clipboard and files. I like it a lot.

That would actually explain why one bar i have gone to many times has one beer (that is always on the same tap) that always tates wrong, I thought it was a batch thing. Thanks for this information!

Maybe I am one, it works pretty well on me at least haha

I am unsure if I do, because I do not know if it is a knowledge thing or instinct. But in the forest am I pretty good at finding my way back even if I just walk randomly but it could also just be that I remember how I walked there.

I do not feel the irons taste/smell that often in the city so I do not really know what it is that makes me feel that way. It is mostly in the forest.

The hum? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Hum

I can smell iron in the soil from a distance (depending on how much there is), and if there’s a lot of iron I feel very sick, almost like I’m going to vomit, and I want to get away from it. There was one place like that where the closer I got the more sick I felt and the more iron I smelled, I could taste it like there was blood in my mouth, some months later did they start digging there and found a lot of iron.

I do not really like lager (love other types) for the same reason, the taste has a lot of iron in it especially some brands but I seem to be the only one who can taste it. I kind of rank lager as less or more irony taste lol.

Sometimes at some bars does one or multiple beers on tap taste weird and sweet regardless of type or brand. No one else of my friends seem to be able to tell. I where at a bar once where only one beer tap tasted as it should… The rest had the same sweet weird taste.

I also do not like coca-cola or Pepsi so my taste buds may just be weird.
