An AMA with the kid whose dad got him a custom winamp skin would be neat.

I wonder if the server throttles that ads so you can't 2x the playback speed. Sounds like a good way to detect when the ads are being served.

I mean I'll settle for the ad being blacked out and muted while I wait for the content. Or have it play elevator music while I wait.

Huh, I guess you can do just about anything if you're willing to pay the political cost.

Those suggesting other candidates should probably address the three issues AOC brought up:

  • Endorsements doesn't transfer
  • Campaign contributions doesn't transfer
  • Possible state level shenanigans by GOP to keep candidates chosen after some technicality off ballot

None of these issues exist if Biden simply steps down.

I love it when terrible people do terrible things to their own wealth. What I don't love is how after a certain number of billions, you have an infinite wealth cheat code to fuck around with.

Why should I need to prove a negative? The burden is on the ones claiming an LLM is sentient. LLMs are token predictors, do I need to present evidence of this?
