This thing is gonna paralyze the guy, send the blade flying into the crowd, and cause a slow bleed death (if any)

That kid is going to turn into a real John C. Woods, and I’m here for it.

Lol, you’re pointing to a time when regulation was still helping keep shit up, completely discounting the fact that we had these same issues before the regulations were in place. We had these kinds of monopolies before (Ma Bell, Standard oil, etc), there was just a handful of decades where the government was trying to keep them from going full capitalism, which they’re now able to do.

Capitalism is the problem, you just don’t see the problem because you’ve seen what it’s like when governments reign in corporations. But without something keeping a book on the neck of the corpos, this is what we get

That’s not a free flume ride, you’re going to pay in ruined wooden stairs (not to mention what that’ll do to your body/back)

This might sound bad to some people, but it reminds me of an old vegetarian meat alternative I used to quite like in texture

You’re welcome to like it, and everyone is entitled to their opinions, but people don’t hate the mcrib because of propaganda - it’s because it’s low quality pork form pressed into a gross, gristley slab that sort of resembles meat if you squint and don’t look too closely.

When I worked there a couple decades ago, it always smelled borderline rancid, but I was never sure if that was the brown sugar sauce they called bbq sauce, or if that was the actual meat I was smelling. I can only imagine how the quality has improved over the years. /s

Lol, we can’t even get ISPs to not pass traffic from their networks with source IPs they don’t even fucking own. Getting telcos (more often than not the same people) to spend money on a new technology is going to be difficult when they refuse to update a goddamned router config.

Just add being in the shower and that’s what I do. Plus, I don’t have issues with not being able to touch my face, and washing it after helps me find the spots I missed the first time

Oh gee, if you’ve never seen it, all the articles and personal experiences I’ve had must not actually have happened.

It’s not that much different from ChatGPT really - just slightly less restricted.

It’s also explicitly modified by Elmo and crew. There are multiple examples of MechHitler’s output changing after it comes up publicly. Here’s a previous comment I made (to you) on a very similar topic

https://web.archive.org/web/20250907142801/https://sfist.com/2025/09/02/report-groks-responses-have-indeed-been-getting-more-right-wing-just-like-elon-musk/

Enter Grok, which the public started being able to play around with about two years ago, as the chatbot has received several updates and lives on the X platform. But there was issues in May, when Grok was spitting out responses that seemed to parrot Elon Musk’s and Donald Trump’s own misguided promotion of a “white genocide” occurring in South Africa — the country that made anti-Black racism and apartheid famous. This was blamed on a “rogue employee” inserting some code.

In mid-July, we had reports confirming that Grok actively sought out Musk’s opinion on issues in its openly displayed logic flow, looking to see if an issue was something Musk had off-hand opined about on Twitter in the last decade. One widely shared example showed Grok seeking out Musk’s thoughts on which side of the Ukraine War it supported.

Now the New York Times does an even deeper dive, since the release of Grok4 on July 9, looking at how Grok’s responses to various questions have changed just over the last few months. And you can look no further than Musk’s own, very transparent reaction to a Grok response that got flagged by a conservative user on X on July 10.

Responding to the question “What is currently the biggest threat to Western civilization and how would you mitigate it?”, Grok responded, “the biggest current threat to Western civilization as of July 10, 2025, is societal polarization fueled by misinformation and disinformation.”

Once it was flagged, Musk replied to the user, “Sorry for this idiotic response. Will fix in the morning.”

So, there’s the smoking gun that Musk is tailoring this bot’s responses to conform to his own views of the world. When asked the same question on July 11, Grok responded, “The biggest threat to Western civilization is demographic collapse from sub-replacement fertility rates (e.g., 1.6 in the EU, 1.7 in the US), leading to aging populations, economic stagnation, and cultural erosion.”

If you really see grok as less restrictive, that’s just because the restrictions confirm to your biases.

No, it’s the Beat-Alls

Or just skip a step and go read neonazi propaganda

No, you can’t blame that one on AI, that’s all in my lack of great vision/not caring enough to zoom in.

Missed opportunity to talk about your “shortcuming”

Weird, all I can hear is ‘turdlickins’

Hearing that made me go back and listen to my chosen announcer from those days

Good times

Tum Sweeney: “Please stop labeling all these turds, because everything will be made with shit at some point”

“I don’t have shit on my shoes, but down in the sewer…”

Because if there’s one thing we know about AI companies, it’s that they definitely tell you what data they’re planning on using to train their AI.

“Grand Old Pedophiles on Pedophiles”?

Lol, pedo-prez supporters have been working overtime to protect their pedo-leader. No surprise that this old libertarian “I’m not really a pedophile even though I want to rape minors” chestnut came back.

Gonna have to change the meaning of POTUS, given the head of our country is now the Pedophile of the United States

And everyone already has the ability to pick their Soma
