What kind of hell-scape-reality-tv-show-fuckfest dimension have I entered, when a candidate for the Presidential election is being judged, by a fucking laugh?

A laugh?

This is really bottom of the barrel, petty, childhood shit.

The sad thing is, I know there will be people that don’t vote for Harris her because of her laugh. And for every person that doesn’t turn up to the voting stations and vote because of whatever reason they have… remember that there are people that WILL turn up to the polls and believe your country should be run by a misogynistic, racist, uneducated convicted felon…

but hey… at least he doesn’t laugh.

For those who want to feel empty and numb inside, I would suggest this triple banger of back to back films…

  1. Kids
  2. Requiem for a dream
  3. Import/Export

I found “No Tourists” a wonderful homage to their first album “Experience”. It had old, old school rave vibes to it that, but with a current feel.

Andy C’s remix of firestarter is great too. Worth a listen if you like hard drum and bass with a prodigy vibe.

As an Australian transplant in London recently…. I can just image your UZEL, congestion charge and petrol bill would be like now

Papua New Guinea, Luxembourg and Germany are 42%, and a few other European countries have a bracket that hover around the 41-44%.

Just remember… voting them out is the only way for them leave office. Even if it’s a shoe in, complacency on voting gives them a chance. Total annihilation sends a stronger message than a close election.

I think it just highlights loose morales for a quick quid. Defrauding a bookmaker with inside knowledge is still fraud.

I regularly had inside information on the winners of certain television “reality” tv shows, and could easily chuck £25 on the winner, knowing that it was easy money… but my own moral compass stopped me from doing it because I thought it was wrong.

I’m not saying that I’m better or worse than anyone, and I can see that the only company I would be defrauding would be a bookmaker… but I saw fraud as fraud, which still didn’t sit right with me.

Thank you for the link. I didn’t realise that Google had a deal with Reddit as well, which explains why it was clearly indexed from Reddit.

I agree that AI doesn’t have a clue what an accurate response is. It’s just not sentient enough to differentiate between shitposting and fact. I also totally agree that an answer given from a search result HAS to be accurate, and we’re heading down a path of a misinformation super highway if LLMs are trained on incorrect data.

I’m confused a little by the LLM’s and datasets here.

OpenAI and Reddit have their partnership for training, so I would have assumed the pizza glue answer would have come from an OpenAI result, but Google doesn’t use OpenAI. How did Google give an answer that was clearly scraped from Reddit?
