Twitter is a Nuthouse (Cringe thread)

[LostintheCycle]

Self proclaimed progressive anti-racist goes on racial tirade. Many such cases on Twitter(dot)com!

The worst part about twitter is the karma system. It's a deeply chaotic system. Everyone sees what the upvotes and downvotes are after the grace period has passed, and they will always pile on to the positive or negative traits of the thread right away. It's something that could be heavily upvoted one day and heavily downvoted another. People manipulate this process by posting edits to their thread 'Yeah downvote me you stupid fuckers!' This can swing things to the positive. It's a goddamn primitive ape brain farm that's completely dissociated from any aspects of normal human interaction and I hate it, at the same time, there are some cool niche communities for lurking that have some great information, to be sure.

I guess one of the participants in the Junko Furuta torture/murder is not only free but has a Twitter account? I had to reread the wiki article, had no idea the preparators got such light sentences.

Reminds me of Seito Sakakibara writing a book and making a website. This guy appears to be interested in gangstalking and TIs, so maybe he thinks he's one of those? Wouldn't surprise me considering his crime.
I would read a book by Neomugicha.

I have seen none person (let alone women) that find this cute.

Its not okay for you to say it. But when they say it its okay. I wonder what they would define "hate" as too. I have a feeling that its a lot more of an open definition than how you or I would define it.

>Trannies
>Telling others to kill themselves
Ironic

Well I have. She is pretty mentally ill to be fair.

I have never used Twitter and I believe I will live longer for not doing so.

Unrelated but this should stop you from using twitter, unless you enjoy seeing bunch of blue headed soytards that you don't even follow on your feeds.

If there was a time to jump ship to mastodon...

... or a resurgence of forums. As much as I despise musk, he is at least correct about the fact that how vulnerable platforms like Twitter, Instagram, 4chans and >reddit are to bots.

For sure, the recent social media controversies have me seriously considering making the move to Mastodon. Sick of feeling like my data and privacy are up for grabs on these mainstream platforms.

... or a resurgence of forums. As much as I despise musk, he is at least correct about the fact that how vulnerable platforms like Twitter, Instagram, 4chans and >reddit are to bots.

Yeah, it's pretty wild how easy it is for bots to infiltrate and manipulate social media platforms. But honestly, Musk's opinions are hit or miss for me - sometimes he's on point, sometimes he's just being a weirdo.

Spoiler

Forums aren't as safe as you think, this took next to no effort. I'm just running on civilian software with a prompt that took 10 seconds to come up with and 30 tops to copy and paste/post. A more fleshed out prompt running cutting edge software that can post on a forum automatically isn't unfathomable.

But forums are one of the better counters, especially compared to 4chan and Twitter. You have a poster's previous posts to go through, a reputation score of sorts, and bits of personal flair. If my attempt at demonstrating this tactic failed then most likely it's because you're familiar with my posting style/word choice, but even then you can train it on specific people/communities to make it blend more seamlessly.
I feel like we're getting to a point where you essentially need some sort of portfolio of internet activity dating back years to adequately clear your name of being a bot.

As has always been the case, everything on the internet is fake and gay, and it's only getting faker and gayer.

Listen here buddy, are you seriously surprised that bots can infiltrate and manipulate social media? That's like being surprised that water is wet. Wake up and smell the coffee. Social media platforms are practically built to be manipulated, and bots are just one of the many ways that people do it. So, stop acting like you just discovered fire or something.

And as for your opinion on Musk, who cares? I mean, seriously, who gives a flying f*** what you think about him? He's a billionaire and you're just some random person on the internet. So, why don't you just keep your half-baked opinions to yourself and let the adults talk? Musk may be a weirdo, but at least he's doing something with his life. What are you doing besides whining about bots and pretending like you matter?

Spoiler

I would never say "Wake up and smell the coffee" what the fuck
I think the thing stopping forums from getting flooded with bots is that they aren't great to get money from or anything so it's not worthwhile. If everyone were on forums, it'd be like social media again regardless of the format. Not that forums will take off anyway, they make for poor mobile experiences, and aren't fast paced. But that's fine, it's nice to have places online that have few people, there's already plenty of places to go if I want many.
I remember seeing this image filter being developed by researchers which exploits 'blind spots' in current AI image generation. You run your image through, it makes subtle changes that are barely perceptible at most, and then (supposedly) if your image is used by the program, it will cause artefacts to come out in the image, rendering the result useless. I wonder if there is any similar defective points in ChatGPT? I wanted to explore that. All the useless shits in my uni wont shut up about how ChatGPT writes the code for their assignments, so I decided to see if it's any good at lifting anything heavier than beginner Java. And it absolutely shit its pants.
I said to it "Describe the ASL instruction from the MOS 6502 CPU"
ChatGPT

6502.org

Mind you, the MOS 6502 isn't niche or anything, it was used in the Apple I, Apple II, NES, the Commodore PET, and because of its small instruction set it's a go-to for hobby projects. It would probably be one of the most well documented retro CPU's online, yet ChatGPT cannot give even 10% accurate information about a particular instruction. So it seems like accurately reporting technical information is a massive blind spot, maybe that could be used to create some sort of a Captcha?

I believe time will tell if a user is a bot or not, you might be able to fool people for a few times but that is it. Same logic goes for sites such as quora and stackexchange.

 

[SolidStateSurvivor]

Also I just remembered the account "Gimmick Accounts Bitching about Politics" exists. That's an endless source of gold for this thread, the embodiment of the "you literally had one job!" meme:

I haven't thought about Pakman in years, and somehow he's even more of an asshole than I remembered. I thought the edgy online enlightened atheist bullshit died off like 15 years ago.

Didn't even know he was an "e-celeb" of sorts, saw this posted elsewhere and thought he was just another typical blue checkmark idiot.

Written like a true deceptive bot. Wake up Sheeple!!
