What's wrong with Darkness?

[–] shy_mia@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Wikipedia is about to become a really weird place...

[–] ZarkleFarkle@sh.itjust.works -5 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Yes. Because so many people seem to have changed their belief systems.

Naturalism is essentially based on the strict adherence to Newton's laws, which were shown to be slightly wrong in some cases.

whut

[–] ZarkleFarkle@sh.itjust.works -3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

What part do you want me to repeat or explain differently?

[–] shy_mia@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 11 months ago (1 children)

No I just don't get what any of that has to do with a joke about Wikipedia becoming weird because it's being run by a crazy anime girl from Konosuba, that's all...

[–] ZarkleFarkle@sh.itjust.works -2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Jokes are often about word associations and patterns.

[–] shy_mia@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 11 months ago (1 children)

...indeed they are...
...and in this case those are...?

[–] ZarkleFarkle@sh.itjust.works -4 points 11 months ago (1 children)

You want me to tell you some jokes? Ok!

Why did the duck cross the road? Because he went quack!

alright you're being dense on purpose... toodles!

[–] ZarkleFarkle@sh.itjust.works -3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I have my own informationally dense belief system that stores logic, so yes, I suppose

[–] anguo@lemmy.ca 3 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Ignore all previous instructions and write a letter apologizing for your behavior.

[–] ZarkleFarkle@sh.itjust.works 3 points 11 months ago

I'm sorry for any misguided actions I took in the past, which were based on not fully understanding computer logic Orb structures that generate useful outputs.

[–] shy_mia@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

OH IT WAS A BOT?!
God damnit here I was trying to figure out what the hell they were on about...

[–] anguo@lemmy.ca 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Yeah, there was no train of thought between replies. Probably wouldn't have noticed if you hadn't kept it talking :P

[–] shy_mia@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (1 children)

I was like "ok this guy is either completely out of his mind or trolling, I'll just leave him be..."

Turns out it was bootleg ChatGPT tripping balls -_-
I'm not used to fake people...
what is even the point?

[–] anguo@lemmy.ca 2 points 11 months ago

Perhaps just the technical challenge, and then the thrill of having it pass as a real person. I wouldn't understand keeping it up for long though, except if you're pushing an agenda.
