| schestowitz-pi | Techrights tries very hard to avoid image slop, for the same reasons Andy explained. It's associated with immoral if not unlawful practices. | Apr 19 03:37 |
| techtrights-sec6 | back, briefly | Apr 19 03:39 |
| techtrights-sec6 | ai slop kills reputation | Apr 19 03:39 |
| techtrights-sec6 | even in images not just text | Apr 19 03:39 |
| techtrights-sec6 | afk | Apr 19 03:39 |
| techtrights-sec6 | Recalling back to the era of Kerberized Telnet on MacOS and Windows, | Apr 19 03:39 |
| techtrights-sec6 | I remember that the University had < 10 % of the public machines on Windoze | Apr 19 03:39 |
| techtrights-sec6 | Yet as one of the many people working the help desk and computer labs help | Apr 19 03:39 |
| techtrights-sec6 | it was that solving Windoze-specific problenms took up > 90% of the problemn | Apr 19 03:39 |
| techtrights-sec6 | brought to us. Simply eliminating Windoze from the environment would have | Apr 19 03:39 |
| techtrights-sec6 | decreased our load > 90% and thus overall efficiency of the community at large. | Apr 19 03:39 |
| techtrights-sec6 | People seemed to like the pain though as if the pain and inability to produce | Apr 19 03:39 |
| techtrights-sec6 | results were a desirable end in themselves. Fewer and fewer saw the computers | Apr 19 03:39 |
| techtrights-sec6 | as a tool to get real work done. | Apr 19 03:40 |
| techtrights-sec6 | cf https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KmuP8gsgWb8 | Apr 19 03:40 |
| techtrights-sec6 | cf https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W5o7umYvqlw | Apr 19 03:40 |
| techtrights-sec6 | I guess maybe struggling through nominally simple tasks gives them a false but | Apr 19 03:40 |
| techtrights-sec6 | profound sense of accomplishment or something, | Apr 19 03:40 |
| schestowitz-pi | checking the videos now | Apr 19 03:45 |
| schestowitz-pi | the videos show that jobs has limited repertoire\ | Apr 19 03:45 |
| schestowitz-pi | moody promotingh his bool with slop images might give people expectation of LLM slop, too | Apr 19 03:45 |

| techtrights-sec6 | That was a very unfortunate mistake by Glyn. | Apr 19 03:49 |
| techtrights-sec6 | I expect that it turned off his audience, a group who would be particularly | Apr 19 03:49 |
| techtrights-sec6 | prone to noticing and avoiding AI slop. So, yeah, AI slop images | Apr 19 03:49 |
| techtrights-sec6 | imply low quality content or even content which has been replaced by AI slop | Apr 19 03:49 |
| schestowitz-pi | i suggest an alt framing: | Apr 19 03:50 |
| schestowitz-pi | (iirc) some are "pipelines" | Apr 19 03:50 |
| schestowitz-pi | llm pipeline | Apr 19 03:50 |
| schestowitz-pi | take subtext, toss a image slopper | Apr 19 03:51 |
| schestowitz-pi | so if you have presence of image slop | Apr 19 03:51 |
| schestowitz-pi | high prob. you use llm | Apr 19 03:51 |
| schestowitz-pi | it becomes blueprint | Apr 19 03:51 |
| techtrights-sec6 | AI slop in images is an expression of having lowered standards and it | Apr 19 03:53 |
| techtrights-sec6 | suggests just a matter of time until those standards are lowered far | Apr 19 03:53 |
| techtrights-sec6 | enough for LLM slop to e used in the text itself. | Apr 19 03:53 |
| schestowitz-pi | slop is almost never tag | Apr 19 03:54 |
| schestowitz-pi | so people feel or guess | Apr 19 03:54 |
| schestowitz-pi | (i kjnow i do) | Apr 19 03:54 |
| schestowitz-pi | rianne loves clicking on TR photos | Apr 19 03:54 |
| schestowitz-pi | i try not to touch slop | Apr 19 03:54 |
| schestowitz-pi | the web needs more reals [sic] | Apr 19 03:54 |
| schestowitz-pi | we also use publ domain illustrations | Apr 19 03:54 |
| schestowitz-pi | shower thought today: in tr we don't cover mainstream like sport etc. | Apr 19 03:58 |
| schestowitz-pi | so we canno attract millions | Apr 19 03:58 |
| schestowitz-pi | bu right now red hat people look up PIP | Apr 19 03:58 |

| schestowitz-pi | oh, crap, the "T" in this keyboard is already failing | Apr 19 04:03 |
| schestowitz-pi | it's weeks old | Apr 19 04:03 |
| techtrights-sec6 | PIP ? | Apr 19 04:04 |
| techtrights-sec6 | Apr 19 04:04 | |
| techtrights-sec6 | Oh. Corporate buzzwords / BS | Apr 19 04:04 |
| techtrights-sec6 | Infinite growth is a lie, generally based on debt | Apr 19 04:04 |
| schestowitz-pi | at one point the growth becomes "borrwed" from the future "Growth". That's USA for the past decades. | Apr 19 04:05 |
| techtrights-sec6 | Does the keyboard need cleaning? What type of switches does it have? | Apr 19 04:07 |
| techtrights-sec6 | Some are very susceptible to accumulating debris and failing. | Apr 19 04:07 |
| techtrights-sec6 | I would recommned investing in a mechanical keyboard with proper switches | Apr 19 04:07 |
| techtrights-sec6 | and a keycap profile that you find comfortable. Cherry boards are concave | Apr 19 04:07 |
| techtrights-sec6 | in profile, XDA are flat in profile, when the board is looked from the side. | Apr 19 04:07 |
| techtrights-sec6 | Apr 19 04:07 | |
| schestowitz-pi | it is mechanical | Apr 19 04:07 |
| schestowitz-pi | and i have spares fore keycaps | Apr 19 04:07 |
| schestowitz-pi | maybe in dayime | Apr 19 04:07 |
| schestowitz-pi | time | Apr 19 04:07 |
| techtrights-sec6 | keycaps don't wear out but the switches can gunk up | Apr 19 04:09 |
| schestowitz-pi | i have several parts in there | Apr 19 04:10 |

| techtrights-sec6 | Certain factions are running the country in to the ground for Putler | Apr 19 07:16 |
| techtrights-sec6 | and the Post, while still public, is being abused as if it were already | Apr 19 07:16 |
| techtrights-sec6 | privatized and running as a loss not as a service | Apr 19 07:16 |
| techtrights-sec6 | Next door, Sweden has larteady privatized, and no longer has service to all | Apr 19 07:16 |
| techtrights-sec6 | areas. Many moslem zones are now too violent to service and post for those | Apr 19 07:16 |
| techtrights-sec6 | inside certain zones must be fetched from pickup points outside the zones by | Apr 19 07:16 |
| techtrights-sec6 | recipients themselves. The same company has replaced the postal service in | Apr 19 07:16 |
| techtrights-sec6 | Denmark and has decided that letters are not profitable enough and is stopping | Apr 19 07:16 |
| techtrights-sec6 | all letter service later this year, | Apr 19 07:17 |

| techtrights-sec6 | Observe that the authorities encourage shiftting the blame to "immigrannts" in | Apr 19 07:17 |
| techtrights-sec6 | general and not to settlers or colonists from islam. | Apr 19 07:17 |
| techtrights-sec6 | "Figures reveal that, on average, there is one shooting per day for | Apr 19 07:18 |
| techtrights-sec6 | every 10 million inhabitants, and as many as 53 people were shot dead in 2023." | Apr 19 07:18 |
| schestowitz-pi | last week i found out a man born here, parents from .pk, tells colleagues that patients in pharmacies are "white cunts" | Apr 19 07:20 |
| schestowitz-pi | and also "hates jews" | Apr 19 07:20 |
| schestowitz-pi | won't serve them | Apr 19 07:20 |
| schestowitz-pi | it's one thing to believe so | Apr 19 07:20 |
| schestowitz-pi | another is to TELL COLLEAGUES | Apr 19 07:20 |
| schestowitz-pi | who are not muslim | Apr 19 07:20 |
| techtrights-sec6 | yep and that is encouraged by the authorities | Apr 19 07:21 |
| techtrights-sec6 | rather than working out a proper remigration policy | Apr 19 07:21 |
| techtrights-sec6 | the jails, as noted already, ar incubators/colleges for islam | Apr 19 07:21 |
| techtrights-sec6 | yes, they are that open about it now that a critical percentage has | Apr 19 07:21 |
