Have you not read either the abstract ("calorie deficit not helping") or my comment? ("input on the inefficiency of diets is useless to OP without any impulse on what to do instead")?

I don't understand of what you're aiming for with your oneliners.

Whelp that's not helpful on its own though to be honest. "long term lifestyle change" is the key word I am aware which is... Well at least I didn't manage it so far. "just do X" is like telling an alcoholic to "just stop drinking, oh but you need a sip every other hour".

As your perception sounds quite negative I'll try to change your view!

Instead of looking down on people fanatifally following a "celebrity", take pity on them:

In short: their brain chemistry tricks them into thinking that they are following a friend and have the emotional reactions and interests as we'd hope our real friends do.

I find it really sad to be honest.

I'd like to invite you to watch V for vendetta. A good actor can do magic even behind a mask!

Edit: I'm not sure how Downey Jr would perform, just want to point out that a mask alone is not a blocker for a great performance.

Oh your description is fitting but the headline is... Well I perceive it as poisonous, especially with the knowledge that headlines are often the only thing being read.

The first link goes into amazing detail on that. In short: all your information concerning location as well as current IP and some other metadata gets send to a basically unknown company with no transparency on how that data is handled.

I highly recommend reading the first, linked post though!

Sorry for that hazzle! My story is quite different but exactly the same: my father in law "didn't get around" to do backups and lost his HDD full of important photos and documents.

That said: I'm quite sure that there are huge regional differences. Without knowing your country just keep that in kind.

I phoned around several companies. I had a simple first benchmark: either directly speak with a tech savvy person (big plus) or being forwarded to one.

That eliminated already half of them who had more business than tech.

The important thing to look out for in hindsight is their transport standards, i.e. how does the broken disk get to them and how does the rescued data get back?

Be careful of companies who have the potential to take the disk hostage ("we give a quote after first analysis").

Paying per file rescued sounds weird to me because that's not how the rescue process usually works from what I understand.

The company I went with was very upfront about the best and worst case what to expect, etc. They were very transparent about the risks and their process as well.

Nearly all of the critical data was rescued and delivered on an encrypted disk. The key was handed out after final payment - a process I quite liked.

In short: talk to the people and find a way to figure out whom you trust most.

This is the exact headline of an established newspaper. Wherever you're allowed to have your phone or for reading at work then this should be just as fine.

Please be consience on what NSFW should be and don't call for censorship in its name.

Ironically fitting to the article itself.

That is not how these LLM work though - it generates responses literally token for token (think "word for word") based on the context before.

I can still write prompts where the answer sounds emotional because that's what the reference data sounded like. Doesn't mean there is anything like consciousness in there... That's why it's so hard: we've defined consciousness (with self awareness) in a way that is hard to test. Most books have these parts where the reader is touched e emotionally by a character after all.

It's still purely a chat bot - but a damn good one. The conclusion: we can't evaluate language models purely based on what they write.

So how do we determine consciousness then? That's the impossible task: don't use only words for an object that is only words.

Personally I don't think the difference matters all that much to be honest. To dive into fiction: in terminator, skynet could be described as conscious as well as obeying an order like: "prevent all future wars".

We as a species never used consciousness (ravens, dolphins?) to alter our behavior.

Two more things to add: you get downvoted not for the content but for the tone. People tend to not respond well to abuse, even if verbal - and at least I read a "make this shit work for me" in between your lines.

And more important: what you are asking is not easy. Wouldn't be on windows, wouldn't be on macos (disclaimer: I've never set up the arr stack on either but docker runtimes) . You are diving into server software no matter if you're the only user or not. Either you accept this and the learning curve ahead of you or you give up on it.

Done. That's a valid command, no error code, nothing. KISS!
