just as a counterpoint, I live in the forest and it would take a very, very serious problem for me to even consider moving to a small town. nonetheless a city.
we lived in a bunch of different countries and a bunch of different cities over the last 15 years and I intended to never live in another city again.
having the forest friends follow me around as I do morning chores is how life was meant to be. if I could just find a way to stretch that into my whole day I'd be the happiest man on Earth.
The problem with this is that a lot of these people have been shitting on their neighbors and their entire neighborhoods for decades because they think they are the special snowflake who can survive anything by themselves and don't need any community.
When those fucks are also broke and they come asking for help a lot of us are going to tell them to get fucked.
Those of us who've been building intentional communities and support systems will be a little better off, but we're going to be wasting a lot of time trying to fight off raiders from the aforementioned group above. thankfully they'll probably be coming single file because they won't help each other either.
By remember you mean being near 50 and every time someone uses the word boutique you are compelled to repeat "Shop til you freak, at the spooky booootique"?
Like that?
My mother who is 65 started getting tattoos when she turned 50 and now has 38 of them I think. Including hands and face.
That woman is a force of nature.
just wait till you learn about how accurate hot desking software is.
Jesus Christ, if you didn't think your company knew if you were in one building or another before today, you're a fucking idiot.
This was the movie Caught Stealing. Pretty good flick if you can stomach a lot of violence.
The point is that they are doing it purely to be annoying at this point. They have been shown many times, by people who actually work in the model training space, that their stated purpose is not achieving what they want.
if your idea of fun is making it harder for other people to read your posts for no reason other than annoying them.
it made sense at first if they actually believed that this was going to do anything to an AI scraper. But they obviously know by now that that's not the case.
Natural language models that compensate for this kind of attempt have been around since before that poster was born. It is silly vanity "hey look, people recognize me". Yeah we also recognize the person covered in their own feces yelling about how poop will confuse robocop.
This person has been informed that the character is worthless at its stated goal of being AI poison. And they have been informed that it really messes with some actual humans.
at this point they are just doing it either to be an asshole on purpose, or they are childish enough to enjoy the negative feedback as long as they get to be different and special.
We live in a tiny house in the forest.
my niche would probably be blue jay, chipmunk,and squirrel, behaviour. I spend a lot of time with a lot of forest animals. But those three consume about 80% of that time.
Thank you for taking the time to type up both of these.
