Lmaoooooooo that NPR White House correspondent deleted their zero media literacy take about Breaking Bad cause they were getting clowned on so bad 💀

also his revenge on the cartel, which in some ways his empire was built specifically to enable

that’s walter’s whole deal. it’s never enough, he’s a narcissist chasing a dragon called jouissance

mike and gus were both pretty cool, and extremely capable in their respective roles while aware of their strengths and weaknesses — an awareness that walter is pathologically incapable of

i think it makes him an extremely interesting character tbh

him fucking shit up for gus and mike was so viscerally frustrating to watch that i enjoyed everything that went wrong for walter twice as much from that point forward

his long and carefully planned revenge against the cartel also wouldn’t make sense for gus’ character otherwise, unless max was someone he loved

it’s implied that he and max were a thing, yeah

right wing degenerates look past gus, who is everything walter isn’t, but tries to pretend to be, and decide that walter is The Man because they’re racist and homophobic and every bit as mediocre as white is

gus is infinitely cooler than walter, who isn’t even cool, btw

It’s not at all a comprehension problem. The problem with Walter white is they made him read as cool

reading the wiki page for it again and ughhhh it sounds so good

a sponsor more like lmfao

i know i would lose months of my life to it if i ever actually touch it so i’ve steered clear so far lol

i like that it’s a milsim game that actually models the most interesting parts of the military (logistics)

if u want to keep your posts private on this app then u need to log out. its the only way. sorry

i took a look at it and decided similarly lol

I had to quit playing Foxhole because in my first week playing it I clocked in about 87~ hours and honestly I’d rather shoot heroin if I wanted to waste that much time

poilievre always wanted to teach kindergarten but they told him he was too mean and then he stumbled into politics

it’s all semiotics in the end

media literacy is essentially a generalization of literacy beyond language but still fundamentally the same basic skill — interpreting messages, extracting meaning

they go hand in hand. the underlying deficit is an inability to parse meaning — and with it, authorial intent, intended audience, etc. literacy is kind of one thing, really; so-called media literacy is just a specific aspect of it

i cannot imagine that with the current technology, no.

again, i think, no, transformers are feed-forward — they only interact with the next transformer in their sequence, in one direction, and there’s no interaction between those sequences. there’s no signalling interconnectivity from which consciousness could emerge

this is like the parameters to which you refer, which are computed during training and then immutable from that point forward (LLMs are offline models)

the brain in the jar is definitely not conscious, there is no metabolic activity in that brain and the processes from which consciousness emerges require energy inputs. the brain is structurally identical to when it was conscious though, but inert and so no longer conscious

is a brain in a jar of formaldehyde for 3 weeks conscious?
