Apparently the ads bring 6 dollars per free user without an ad block. So an ad-free subscription for 8 loses 6USD and makes only 2 monthly. It won't help at all. They're now trying to change it to twitter blue being an 8 USD sub with 50% ad reduction kek. So not even ad-free experience. This is...

Your post is so basic. Kinda proof that you are not an Intuitive, kek. I use godlike intuition granted to me as an iNtp, observe that no first move (as evaluated by every chess engine) by white improves the position beyond 0.5 which is half a pawn, and follow opinions of top chess grandmasters...

intp is fake news and everyone is an npc except me

Your ability to misrepresent what I'm saying is absurd. I said cheating isn't needed, not pointless. People can benefit financially by cheating in chess. My point is people with great 10/10 memory and 9/10 skill can beat chess grandmasters with 5/10 memory and 10/10 skill. The perfect game of...

For those who don't know there's been a big drama in the top level chess that I won't bother to describe. It includes over the board cheating accusations and lawsuits and it will take years to clear up probably. I don't really care about who's right or wrong there, but I'm more interested in...

Seems like they're asking you about the same thing 4 times. Just different wording or asking about the opposite. 6345a4eb06155c0009d804fe

Good thing you specified it was "First Class". God we hate those "Third Class" medals, don't we? Forum's owner is a japanophile with a thing for anthropomorphized battle ships and other war machines portrayed as, mostly loli, girls. Such girls are often decorated with the military markings...

Why are we to engage in mainstream discourse about IQ? Does anything need to change based on the way IQ is supposed to be used?

Isn't the whole interview a sort of performance test? You could be heaven-knows-what level of genius and still if you would only stutter awkwardly in front of strangers or if you had several prison tattoos that would disqualify you as a liability to the employer. There's a ton of information...

Predetermine means "decide in advance". It's pretty normal to only look for romantic partners or basketball players if that's what you need in life and it's just as normal to reject people who don't have a chance of meeting your requirements. I don't think it's effective to predetermine that...

Oh so this was the thread you were discussing objective morality in? My bad for posting in the wrong thread. To be perfectly honest I don't target you personally. I just saw the subject "objective morality" and replied in one of your threads regarding supernatural because that's what it is a...

I think it is the ideal that there will be no centralized culture, rather people will each belong to their preferred sphere of interests and activities. Like the immigrants in the UK do know your culture or your queen, but they don't care. They go to their own churches, they pray to their own...

@DoIMustHaveAnUsername? Thanks for the excellent posts. It was an enjoyable read. 1. I agree that sentience is a degree scale and not a binary state. 2. When I said I used GPT 3 and 4 I obviously meant GPT 2 and 3. I think GPT 4 doesn't exist yet :D 3. Why, in my opinion, GPT and content...

What gods or stories do I study to ward off the terror of the blackest of horses that gallop on the dark ink tapestry of a stormy sky? I'm pretty confident when the black mare gallops at an angle, but I dread the moment it sways around and propels itself directly at me. What do I do then? My...

Yeah, I was giving a short simplified explanation of why the whole thing isn't magic. I interacted with gpt3 and gpt4 and they are really dumb still. I'm convinced that language models are a dead end for AI. The best output I could coerce out of it was a dreamlike storytelling on drugs. It also...

Because 4chan lies in the deep recesses of the primitive brain of every ape. It is the primal shout of degeneracy, the irrational desire for mother's tits and later for other breast-like appendages. And with it comes the hope of restoring the old, the familiar. After the metawar which saw the...

I had some chicken rubber wrapped in gift paper. A techpriest of rave handed it to me with a kind blessing 'abuse it'. It was good. After that meal, for some inexplicable reason, I started feeling karmic remorse as though I took a sentient life. How do I repent?

Yeah if you wanna know what a language model program is in simplest terms just imagine how it builds a sentence. 1. It chooses to make a sentence based on context or user input. Let's say it randomly selected 'flirting' 2. It then looks at words and sentences commonly associated with flirting...

You made me want to play a Skaven campaign in Total War Warhammer :D

Yo duuude. Ruzzia is going down! XD :D :p

That's an obvious uncomfortable truth. The ruthless take stuff from others by legal and illegal means and use some form of ideology to legitimize their actions in the eyes of the fools. The fools accept what the ruthless tell them and rally behind their banners. Sensible people try to stay as...

Completely disagree with this one. ISIS beheaded people or did other extreme things because it brought attention of the islamic world and showed that they are pious and faithful. It is instrumental to their powerbase to become associated with being faithful servants of god as this brings them...

It could be a few things. Drugs do affect your emotions. Other things to consider is that you could have a natural alexithymia, or other tendencies to manifest less emotions or feel less. The most obvious is probably the fact that you're an intellectual :D :D Thinking people feel less and...

I think that geese are the cutest avians besides penguins. Those guys have a strong and funny character that makes my day better whenever I see them. Everyone should have their personal goose. Most dumb people could use an encounter with an aggravated goose to learn their place in the universe...

You know what? That's a good assumption. In that sense JP is the best they can readily accept and I am a JP supporter if it means having the best available authority figure for conservative males. That certainly wasn't great of me. I overdid the comparison. And Shapiro plus other figures are...

The big problem with media authority is that the audience stops judging what a figure of authority is saying about subjects they have low understanding of or subjects where they've ceded their policymaking to said figure. So let's say we get young Hitler and he says we should remove the rats...

@Hadoblado It's fair to say that he's not the worst and that his role as the father of lost people and men and his self-help advice can be helpful. The problem with him is that he's now a political commentator and a figure of authority on all subjects. He uses the platform not so much to help...

Peterson is a near-total fraud and a self-help guru daddy figure. He oversteps his competence all the time and gives opinions on politics, life and climate when all he really knows is psychology and Bible. He's basically playing the card of being an educated doctor of psychology and giving you...

The worst truths are things that I wish were different. If I could I would give myself infinite time to live and perfect health and make other people less greedy than they are.

We won't have AI in the next 10 years. In 30 years unlikely, 50 years is more likely. Chatbots and language models are not AI or AGI. Wait until that chatbot starts operating a robotic body and solving real life problems that are not in its knowledge base.

Good point about fallacies only being applicable to the soundness of the argument. I don't have formal discussions or such and the people I talk to are smart and respectful enough not to make the obvious mistakes. The folks that I would have a formal fallacy issue with I simply don't talk to...

I'm super bored with the whole of 21st century because it's still stuck on the post-modern Nietzschean "god is dead" and "inherent value doesn't exist" and still thinking there's nothing to do but hedonism or cynicism. There are obviously answers to Nietzsche, post-modernisms and structures and...

Rook, I think google lumps us as the same person :D I'd be curious to see your youtube recommendations, they've got to be very similar. First I get Alex Jones in my recommended and then dungeon synth. Those algorithms are spooky :cat: I've been listening to this one recently: Not exactly...

Honestly Batman is a boring universe and has a boring mc and despite the impossible - this movie was probably the best in the whole franchise. They used a younger actor, gave him less lines, made a few badass scenes, cyberpunk-gothic aesthetic and voila you can turn a shitty superhero comic...

Cool grandma singing. 4/10 Ateez is the best k-pop band, possibly ever

They're super fun to listen to. I like the soundscapes they create, structure and instrumentation keep them fresh. I listened to all of their albums already and now my cousin and brothers are listening too :D That's perfectly fair, we like what we like, chakras need full penetration :) On...

Puffs, my whole OP was a joke intended to get people riled up into talking about metal. I don't mean "metallica is not metal" seriously :) Metallica is clearly metal, albeit with an incredibly close-minded fanbase that imo rarely transfers into other less mainstream metal.

For real or you're kidding? :D :p I never...considered that. I should give it a go. I'm dumb for not trying the nightcore approach before. Thanks for helping me discover Igorrr, top tier stuff :) Edit: Okay, tried that :D Meshugah jumps 2 points on 2x speed, but they are devoid of melody so...

That's enlightening. I'm triggered by most vocals so I prefer complete instrumental music unless the vocals mesh well enough to not annoy me or in the rare cases add something greatly enjoyable to the "song". For me requirement #1 is solid, powerful and interesting instrumentals. Again...

Okay, but efficiency plateau isn't some predictor of a doomed future. Low net productivity would be bad, reaching peak productivity won't be. If you look at the system as a whole then we could use more workers to multiply our current net product. Twice the population, twice the tech innovation...

For starters, if you like metallica GET OUT :D. Metallica is not metal, it's cheap whiny crap for the masses. I suffer a stroke every time a person says that they like metallica, really, out of all the great music that's out there they listen to 70-year old drunks who can't play their...

Glad it worked :). The fight is not over though, they can revert into TV zombies at any point. You should think about replacing their TV routine with something else, preferably an activity that helps their brains. For me, I started playing board games whenever I visit my parents and it's good...

Lol dude, you're acting like a grumpy old fart, can you shed 30 years for like a second before you speak? The boxes in the 100 prisoner problem are clearly a linked list and I find that property to be useful. It shows that the whole box "network" has 1 or more lists and the only list that has...

@Hadoblado In case you're interested I ran a test for 1 million games: 1. the average amount of non-empty boxes is 5.06118. 2. success rate with my strategy is 5.6553 % compared to 7.8886090522101180541172856528278622967320643510902300477027×10^-29% for no strategy (That's 0.0...78 percent with...

Wait... so you allowed your parents to get fat and distance themselves from you to the point where they became braindead zombies? Am I to understand that you just stood there and watched as your family stops communicating, grows ever fatter and dumber and more addicted to TV? If I saw my mom...

We have 100 boxes and 100 numbered cards between 1 and 100. 1. Choose the starting box at random, so choose between 1 and 100 or roll d100. Suppose your random number was 42. 2. Go to 42 and choose a number between 0 and 100 (roll d101). If you rolled 0 then you put 0 numbered cards in the box...
