I’m going to reiterate what I said the other day. I don’t give one shit who the Dem nominee AGAINST FASCISM is. I ONLY CARE that FASCISM LOSES.

Sad! No Rim for now. Will try it again in like 30 minutes, I guess. Now I'm determined to find out if it's better with keyhooking than NVDA Remote, or not. Hmm But for now: "504 Gateway Time-out"

Giving Reaper another go

From #DadSaysJokes Did you know, an opinion without 3.14 is an onion!

Think about it...

Trump is now the oldest POTUS candidate ever nominated by a major party.

He has repeatedly confused Biden with Obama and Nikki Haley with Nancy Pelosi. He fell asleep at his criminal trial.

Will the media scrutinize his age & mental decline with the fervor it focused on Biden?

I can’t believe the GOP is running an old guy for president. Yikes.

I'm I'm

I know this is obvious, but I still decided to run through the following exercise. I asked OpenAI to analyze its own description of a photo. Here is what we came up with: The logical pattern of the description primarily follows a "concrete to generic" approach. Here's a breakdown of how this pattern unfolds:

1. **Concrete Details about the Main Subject**:
- The description begins with specific details about the man: his appearance and attire. (1/5)

- "The photo shows a man sitting at an outdoor café. He has short, light brown hair and is wearing a pink T-shirt with a black shoulder strap across his chest."

2. **Concrete Details about the Immediate Surroundings**:
- It then moves to the specific details of what is immediately around the man: the table and the coffee. (2/5)

This progression from specific, concrete details to more general, contextual information helps build a vivid and complete picture of the scene, starting with what is most immediately noticeable and expanding outward to give a fuller sense of the environment and setting.
this is a really nice pattern. I think this is why these descriptions sound so palatable:) And here is the picture itself! :) ! (5/5)

Politically, Biden's dropping out creates all sorts of uncertainty.

Procedurally, however, what happens how is extremely clear: The DNC will use its convention to officially designate its nominees for president and vice president, and those people will appear on the ballot in all 50 states, DC, etc.

A summary of state ballot access laws, from the officials who run the elections, is at nass.org/sites/default/files/r…

It would have been much more complicated if this had occurred after the convention.

Y'all, I'm really thinking of this Rim subscription. Does anyone know if it installs its own keyboard driver or keyhook so that audio games like Mist World can still be controled?

Do Democrats have enough time to find a different path to victory?

It's actually not an unusual concept.

Until 1968, presidential candidates were always picked by party conventions.

And that process, though providing less public input, also produced some great nominees.

Until 1968, presidential candidates were picked by party conventions – a process revived by Biden’s withdrawal from race

With President Joe Biden out of the presidential race, the Democratic Party will have to find another nominee. Past methods of choosing have had their flaws, but also their successes.

Just heard Gordan Ramsay on TV yelling, "Where there is fat there is flavor," I know he wasn't speaking directly to me, but I'm taking it as a compliment. I'm not fat, I'm flavorful.

I believe we will win.

(If we all work for it.)

I believe will will win.

IF WE ALL WORK FOR IT.

If the rumors are true, this week could be another exciting week for opensource LLMS! Meta may release Llama-3-405b on this Tuesday. Also there could be updates to 8b and 70b models distilled from 405B. Joe Spisak, a product director at Meta says they were initially going to call Llama 3 8b and 70b a prerelease or preview because these models didn't have all the things they planned to release.

@vick21 No, it doesn't work. I lost faith in multimodal on llama.cpp, which Ollama relies on. Llama.cpp dropped multimodal support on March 7 (supposedly temporarily), but there is no momentum or interest among the devs to bring it back. They all seem preoccupied with providing immediate next day support for new text-only LLMs being released constantly.

Interesting. I'm sort of getting tired of all these models being released every day. It increasingly looks more and more like a gaming exercise! :)

Agree. Especially that US is still so full of anti-women citizens. She may be one of the best candidate, but you know, she is a woman. So, yeah, I hope she has a message and great campaign staff who will fight for her tooth and nail. Otherwise, it's going to be Hillary repeat...

otázka znie prečo

Joe Biden just announced on Twitter that he would not be seeking reelection.
"Why am I posting about this", you didn't ask? Well, he announced it in a letter, contained in an image, with the alt text of "A letter from president Biden". So for anyone curious what that letter actually said, here's a transcription. I had GPT transcribe it since Windows OCR was mangling parts of it, and OneStep Reader was even worse, but Aira verified the accuracy of it.

US Democrats are fretting in July about getting a candidate for a November election in respect of taking office in January.

We would have had five Conservative Prime Ministers in the same time period.

Please stop balloon releases: You’re killing wildlife. They aren’t going to heaven, they’re wrapping around the legs and necks of migratory birds, and killing them.
