also I feel a bit weird that my personal stance is that pronouns (except “it”) isn’t necessary to a thing, or robot. But since the game uses she/her pronoun for glados, I just kind of went with that.

I usually feel like pronouns (except “it”) is just for human. But people do use pronouns to animals sometimes. I guess it’s valid & not just for human.

Ultimately I’m not so familiar with it. English is my second language and my native language doesn’t have gendered pronoun.

I completely forgot what post am I in 😆 I kind of feel like she’s a just a sentient AI, controlled by personality cores and tasked to do the jobs Aperture Science is supposed to achieve.

What made me feel that way is because there’s a possibility/implied that Caroline didn’t consent to be put into glados, and the fact that glados can also be activated & deavtivated by Aperture workers. Also since her personality can be adjusted, like when she has high urges to murder, the Aperture workers just put morality core.

Also I’m not sure if Glados is properly aware that she’s doesn’t live in the same body as Caroline then nor I’m sure if glados know that Cave Johnson is dead. Or if did she ever found that out, I don’t remember, I don’t remember much of Portal 2.

I suppose she’s more like omnics in Overwatch. Omnics are like sentient robots. But in Overwatch, omnics are treated closer like a human than ordinary robots.

I mean what Overwatch did is to make an allegory to IRL systemic racism. But since realistically now in real life omnics are still not human, so my position is that both omnics & glados, a very advanced sentient robots, are not human.

I still got my pizza hut delivered the last time I tried. but that was several years ago. maybe they stop delivering.

damn that’s like a philosophical question.

But in my opinion, if it’s a real human consciousness and it’s the one itself that have total authorithy for their body, then I think it’s human. Like cyborg.

Except when it is not entirely independent, like stalkers in Half-Life 2, they’re under control of someone else. Or Half-Life headcrab zombies where it’s under control of the headcrab, but the human is terribly miserable. I think killing the zombie would put that misery to end which helps the hijacked person.

If it’s not a real consciousness but merely an LLM spit out of the persons’ lifetime social media personality data, then it’s a clanker.

I think this is kind of more realistic, social media corporation will launch a feature that “revive” a dead person as a personality that people can interact with, but they will try to humanize it as much as possible in the marketing language, implying it’s a real consciousness while in reality it’s just LLM built on top people’s data.

But who am I, I’m not a philosopher.

is it not making someone fix generated project is a massive work rather than building smething from the ground up?

I had a project where I was supposed to clean up a generated 3D model. It has messed up topology, some missing parts, unintelligible shapes. It made me depressed cleaning it up.

few of them was simple enough for me to rebuild the mesh from the ground up following the shape, as if I’m retopologizing. But the more complex ones have that unintelligible shapes that I can’t figure what that is or the flow of the topology.

If I was given more time & pay I could rebuild all of that my own way so I understand every vertices exist in the meshes. But oh well that contradicts their need of quick & cheap.

I’ve been using Rhythmbox since the first time I tried linux in 2016 on Ubuntu.

what if we never domesticisize horses at all. history will probably be so different.

This is why I never interested with technological advancement and innovations in the past decade. Sure a lot of it are technically cool, I maybe even want to play around or even tinker (if accessible) with some of them.

But not for them to constantly make me consume all of those things or for them to use it malicously to people.

funnily enough I have a friend who’ve been obsessed in trying to make LLM saying slur or breaking its rules in general.

When the term “clanker” went on trend recently and I told my friend that it’s a “slur” for robots for no bots have feelings anyway unlike human which deserve basic respect, the friend managed to gaslit the LLM with that argument into saying 10 slurs for bots/LLM.

One of which is “wirewanker”. alongside 9 other terms which include corporate forbidden words like “fucker”, “cunt”, etc.

stupid sexy clanker

I checked the main default Lemmy UI does not have filters. But my mobile Lemmy client (Eternity) do have.

lmao

ooh yea in fact the people behind gary’s mod is making s&box which is closer to be a roblox alternative

the whole text is nothing meaningful but words of affirmations. It only useful to boost their self-esteem and if not, their ego,

I don’t like watch TV or movies at all. I prefer to watch a few select youtube channels I curate.

otherwise it’d be yogurt by the time it came to houses 😆

does C++ ran image recognition that fast on Python’s logo before it segfaults & the Python program launched

It never work. I’ve always done flatpak remove --unused every once in a while. At one time I checked my root filesystem using gnome’s disk analyzer to see what takes the most space, that is when I found out /var/lib/flatpak/repo/ ate 80 gb of my disk.

As per several suggestion from github issues & forums, I did sudo flatpak repair and finally it did clean them up down to around 40-50. Several months later I kind of gone mad and delete everything in the repo directory. I noticed my apps still works. Until few days later when I wanted to update, Flatpak complained and redownload most of the deleted stuff 🤣

But after redownloading, it only took around 20 gb now, and after that Flatpak also pinned every package lmao so I have to unpin unimportant stuff any case they can be deleted using flatpak remove --unused

and I seem to be not the only one, like this person has their Flatpak directories almost 100 gb https://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?t=435450

I realize I may also just remove all latex stuff, I was only using it to graduate. I’d just typst now for smaller things.
