I intuitively understand AI psychosis to be a real phenomenon. We joke about NPC reddit midwits but what happens when you give them a relatively primitive LLM? They become delusional out of convenience.
I see it in my real life too. "Regular people" completely outsourcing their brains to a hallucinating chat bot. They believe it. They don't check it. They just think it's true. It's crazy. Midwits who just stuck to their lane out of intellectual helplessness will suddenly start doing crazy and dangerous things because ChatGPT told them how, but only enough to be dangerous.
Exactly. I know the world police have been exasperatingly annoying, but words are important here. The random next word guessing machine cannot lie or hallucinate, because it has no intent.
The biggest danger of LLMs isn't their output, it's peoples' trust. Like this moron who asked Grock, and less than 3 minutes of basic lookups (along with a court case I knew from actual previous research) showed the answer was entirely wrong: djsumdog.com/@djsumdog/posts/A…
Most of my friends do not know what the term "LLM" is. Some have gone to "AI courses" at their schools and don't understand the core mechanics that all these chatbots have in their models is just a massive lists of parts of words, with floating point values to ever other part of a word. That's it. Nothing else. No one is teaching the very basics of what the models are. They literally only get things "right" by accident and people keep asking "Grock is this true" no matter how many times it obviously generates random words that are verifiably untrue.

Was vereint #Politiker, #Rüstungsunternehmer, #Bänker, #Generäle? Sie profitieren vom #Krieg. Und was vereint #Soldaten und #Zivilisten? Sie bezahlen.

Das Traurige daran ist, dass viele Menschen die immer gleiche #Propaganda nicht erkennen und auf immer gleiche #Feindbilder herein fallen, ja, sogar ernsthaft glauben, man bräuchte nur mehr Waffen, dann würde alles gut und friedlich werden. Radio München stellt sich jedoch gegen jede Form von Krieg und #Kriegstreiberei, gegen jede Form von #Feindbild-Propaganda und außenpolitische Aggression. Wir erteilen Waffen und #Aufrüstung eine klare Absage. Radio München steht dafür ein, Brücken zu bauen und #Friedenstüchtigkeit zu erlernen: Tag für Tag. Neben den #Friedensnoten jetzt auch mit der Reihe Bücher gegen den Krieg. An jedem ersten Montag im Monat stellen wir eine starke Stimme gegen den Krieg vor, egal ob alt oder neu.

Despite measles being declared eliminated in the US in 2000, annual measles cases have reached a 33-year high — and it's only July.
This is the tragic result of the spread of anti-vax disinformation, and will only get worse in the coming years because anti-vaxxers now lead our health agencies.

Here an important list of lesser known spices and seasonings. This list has been on my desk for months
1. Asafoetida - A pungent resin from South Asian cuisine, used sparingly in lentil dishes or curries. It mimics onion-garlic flavors and aids digestion.
2. Black Lime (Dried Lime) - Common in Middle Eastern cooking, it adds a tangy, fermented citrus note to stews, rice, or soups.

I have dozens, perhaps hundreds of FreeBSD systems - several of our products are based on platforms running Freebsd. Most are headless, but we've recently begun adding screens and using Xfce as the desktop (Xfce because most of our platforms have weak graphics engines.)
It is very stable - it is not suffering from the Linux problem of too many (code) cooks in the kitchen. But it does tend to run behind Linux in terms of support for the most recent changes in hardware.
That's exactly why I like FreeBSD, there's not an insane number of dependencies for a full featured system. And also why XFCE is my favorite... and I mod it with the good old CDE/Motif theme, because those were the days when the most thought was put into the user experience and productivity.
The modern desktops these days are astonishingly cringe and right out of Redmond😬

_New York May Get Government-Owned Grocery Stores_
FTA: Government-run food stores aren’t new. The Soviet Union practiced decades of collectivist control over food prices, supply chains, and market competition under the guise of “equitable” redistribution of wealth. The outcome? Soviet grocery stores experienced frequent shortages, long bread lines, and preferential treatment for Communist Party members. In fact, the USSR’s experience in state-run food services led to some of the worst atrocities in human history, one being the Holodomor, a man-made famine which killed millions of Ukrainians.
More recently, Venezuela’s routine food shortages have been attributed to Chávez’s and Maduro’s chokehold on price controls, land expropriations, and the national subsidization of food distribution. Under the Comité Local de Abastecimiento y Producción (CLAP) program, advertised as an equitable distribution of basic food items, government officials only provide supplies to Venezuelans who prove their support to the regime and show government-issued ID.
Socialists Enrich Themselves, While Everyone Else Is Left Behind
Zohran Mamdani claims that “New York is too expensive,” and that he will “lower costs and make life easier.” If socialism’s history has taught us anything, it is that no one eats for free—if they are lucky enough to eat at all. Mamdani’s goal to inject government into every aspect of New Yorkers’ lives—especially their food supply—will leave Americans hungrier and less safe than ever before.
As Friedrich A. Hayek succinctly warned: “The more the state ‘plans,’ the more difficult planning becomes for the individual.”

@Tfmonkey about the whole ‘will Trump print money to reinflate the bubble leading to hyperinflation to save Israel’ thing, yes, it will happen.
The Boomers running the world are simply too stuck in their ways to change their minds and actually care about what happens later. And given their track record of suicidally-retarded decisions they will definitely keep going.
Honestly the only thing that can save us now is either a revolution or J.D. Vance launching coup and becoming dictator.

They will continue to invent or roll out new technology and new technology is the only reason we have not collapsed so far
Because of inflation a higher percent of your time is devoted to useless bureaucracy, so you have less time to produce things
If you have half as much productive time per day and produce twice as many things per time you will end up producing the same amount per day
You will toil with no collapse and wish there was a collapse

Cretans "welcome" cruise full of Zionists.
On Tuesday 8 April 2025, as expected, a cruise ship from #TelAviv docked in #Heraklion with about two thousand Israeli citizens on board.
Locals, in antifascist context, reacted on zionists presence in their city. Check the video to see the reaction of #zionazis.

Provocations of #zioNaZis.
#Volos, #Greece: "At noon on Tuesday I was at the swimming pool and headed to the small pool area where our children used to change. That's where the team members from Israel were, some were coming out of the pool others were changing in the stands. Forced to pass between them, I said the phrase "Free Palestine". I said it but I didn't shout it. At that moment 2-3 people turned around and looked at me and started talking to me intensely and asking me what I said, and then more people gathered. The expressions and gestures that followed from their side afterwards were quite vulgar, and at one point a female athlete, she was not 12 years old hit me on the head with a bag, not hard, but she hit me, and an older teammate picked her up further. Then the coach of the team approached, using the expression "shut up"."
The parents of children of this pool wrote: "When other Municipalities around the world prove their dignified attitude, choosing the right side of history, and decide to cut all ties with the genocidal formation, while respecting the decisions of the International Court of Justice in The Hague, the Municipality of Volos displaces its citizens and shakes bloody hands."

Plomari, #Lesvos: Local businesses expressing solidarity with #Palestine are targeted by #Zionists. According to complaints from residents and workers, in recent weeks there have been cases of aggressive behaviour, negative and defamatory comments on online platforms and direct intimidation of workers by people of Israeli origin.
...The incident came to a head when a store employee was subjected to ironic comments and insulting treatment inside the store by members of a family of Israeli visitors. One young man mockingly called her a "supporter", leaving clear hints about her political stance, and shortly afterwards his mother allegedly stopped her in the street to take a photo and directed an ironic remark at her, which was seen as a clear attempt at intimidation.
Reactions in the local community were immediate. Residents expressed their strong annoyance at the occurrence of such phenomena, stressing that Plomari was and remains a hospitable place, but not a silent one. Village society, they argue, has historically demonstrated solidarity, humanity and political sensitivity, and will not be silent in the face of pressure or intimidation practices.

Ισραηλινοί κατηγορούνται για πιέσεις, προσβολές και αρνητικές κριτικές σε βάρος καταστημάτων του Πλωμαρίου που πήραν δημόσια θέση για τα γεγονότα στη ΓάζαStoNisi.gr
Israeli settler Stav Ben-Shushan was vacationing with his wife at Bolivar Beach in Alimos, near #Athens. He told reporters that a Syrian man approached them, shouted “Free Palestine” and “I am Hamas,” and began filming them. Later, he claimed, the man assaulted him and bit off part of his ear.
Greek police arrested both men.
While chants like “Free Palestine” are common at protests and among activists, the phrase “I am Hamas” feels oddly theatrical, especially in the context of a random beach encounter.
In recent months, dozens of viral videos have shown Israeli travelers being confronted by pro-#Palestine demonstrators around the world. In many of those cases, Israelis were seen provoking, mocking, or even physically assaulting protesters, only to later claim they were the victims. The pattern of escalation, followed by selective storytelling, has become increasingly familiar.

isn't "israeli settler" just a nice way of saying "ethnic cleansing land thief"?
Would you like someone to come along, beat your family up and steal your house at gunpoint, while they were backed up with the might of an entire army? And if you raised a hand against them you would be labelled as a terrorist and shot.
Would you still use the term "settler" for that person?

The trick of declaring war against the armed resistance and then attacking the resisters’ unarmed kin as well as the surrounding population with the most gruesome products of Death-Science — this trick is not new. American Pioneers were pioneers in this too; they made it standard practice to declare war on indigenous warriors and then to murder and burn villages with only women and children in them. This is already modern war, what we know as war against civilian populations; it has also been called, more candidly, mass murder or genocide.Maybe I shouldn’t be surprised that the perpetrators of a Pogrom portray themselves as the victims, in the present case as victims of the Holocaust.
...If I went on I would probably come to results already found by W. Reich in his study of the mass psychology of Fascism. It galls me that a new Fascism should choose to use the experience of the victims of the earlier Fascism among its justifications.
