But who is going around asking these bots to specifically do math? Like in normal usage, Ive never once done that because I could just use a calculator or spreadsheet software if I need to get fancy lol

Function calling is a thing chatbots can do now

I feel like the majority of Lemmy users are non-religious and definitely a good bit of us are antireligion, so when you make a post sorta outlining that modern Christianity is better then a more egalitarian and less dogmatic society it doesn't sit well.

Not sure if that's the case fully, and you're only at like -2/3 lol

  1. I'm certainly no republican lmfao but to say America was stable and great under Biden is a bit silly, obviously it's not the same level as now because Trump is a lunatic, you're just comparing Republicans vs Democrats, whereas I'm specifically saying the democrats already don't do nearly enough.

  2. I mean, more stayed home then voted as per usual, they were literally going against Trump and managed to lose. Do you wonder why they aren't winning over voters? It's because they aren't doing enough to move the needle in a positive direction, so people become disillusioned, we need a strong progressive leader like Bernie who is more willing to fight against the established ghouls in the democratic party who are just as corrupt as the Republicans.

I don't know what more I can say then we can have better if the democrats actually wanted to fight for the things they campaigned on instead of a majority of them doing the bare minimum to stay elected and keep getting that lobbyist cash.

The remote desktop aspect is nice in a few ways, can use whatever thin client and all your stuff is there, but you lose out on stuff like GPU acceleration and at least where I worked where we mainly used thin clients, can be very laggy compared to native.

I suppose my point is if we put any cause of rising prices under the "inflation" umbrella, it gives people the wrong idea as to the cause. Rather then just specifying what is causing prices to rise, people just say "it's inflation."

That is an extremely simplified take of what inflation is.

Here's a fun example as to why just saying "inflation means prices go up" doesn't make sense, what happens when a group of companies conspire to raise prices simultaneously? Is that inflation or is that price fixing? https://www.propublica.org/article/yieldstar-rent-increase-realpage-rent

No they can't not be obtuse, during the election this user and disguyovahere both were going on and on about how the left is the problem for criticizing the dems for their innmuerable terrible decisions that got us here. But no, it's the voters fault, many of us whom have grittered their teeth and voted Dem for years as they continued to be ineffectual and handed our country to the fucking fascists

Except that's not what happened, companies used the slowdowns in shipping from Covid shutdowns as an excuse to raise prices, then never lowered them. This isn't inflation, this was intentionally planned, don't belive me? Listen to their fucking earnings calls specifically saying it out loud.

I always had a hard time with this one, I just say successful lmao.

I don't know the ins and outs of your company, what any kind of progression may look like, what opportunities will present themselves, etc, the question just always seemed odd.

I would imagine because the language is directly related to the stats, rather then the location of the country persay
