The joke was dumb, the online reaction to the joke was dumb, a random UAP senator’s dumb comments being quoted globally was dumb and Rudd telling famous musicians and actors to “grow up and get a job” was very dumb. What a time we live in.

It’s not a joke, it’s a approval of, and a call for another, assassination attempt.
Settle down, mate. It was dark humour, and us Aussies used to be much better at dealing with it, rather than the ridiculous hyperbole we’ve seen from our pollies.
I don’t condone violence against others, but I can appreciate the dark humour in this situation, where a presidential candidate that has been endorsed by the NRA and refuses to entertain a conversation about gun control, was shot at.
That country is seriously fucked up and, frankly speaking, deserves to be laughed at by the rest of the world for the shitty place they’ve all put themselves in.
Especially since he’s been calling for violence against others for years.

Right with you there - I doubt many would accuse Tenacious D of being funny nowadays, and lazy is right on brand.
I get your perspective, and I love ious D, and I have no fond feelings for Trump. But however flippant and unserious, it is, on the surface, another call for assassination. Jokes encouraging political violence, especially about assassinating a presidential candidate right after an assassination attempt, are in pretty bad taste.

Yes, exactly, stripping away all context. It’s not about intent, it’s about the warped perception of public figures. The intent and context, no matter how true, are more subtle than the very real fact that it’s bad business.
Just locker room talk.
No reasonable person would see Gass’s comments and come away thinking he’s actively calling for assassination.
It’s a joke when my side does it. Fuck I hate people.
No, it’s a joke when it’s…actually a joke.
Several 80’s comedians literally built their careers on regan and pjp attempts. Lost count of the number of times we all watched people hurling shoes at Bush jnr. There is an industry around Kennedy deaths.
Trump isn’t a special princess who gets to be immune. Harden tf up
The Choppa we all need
Funny how no one gave a shit when Trump literally called for an assassination attempt. https://www.nytimes.com/2016/08/10/us/politics/donald-trump-hillary-clinton.html
Mate, this is a country that named a swimming pool after Harold Holt.
Is that Lester Holt’s brother?
Harold Holt was the prime minister who disappeared when he went swimming at sea, and was presumed drowned. (There was a conspiracy theory that a Chinese submarine picked him up, though no serious evidence supporting it.)
look at this septic cunt here, trying to be the fun police.
EDIT: translation into Muricanese: behold this American person, attempting to spoil a joke.
It was a joke
Yeah. Trump makes them on a daily basis.
And the only reason they can, is because a lot of them aren’t joking.
Maga needs to be classified as a terrorist organisation
I think we have a cultural disconnect here friend. Glancing at your history to see if I want to block for psyops, this comment looks like a stollen account or something.
BTW your post about a Tai Yai translator, maybe look into the Chinese Yi 34b LLM. I didn’t find a language diagram at a glance, but that is a multi lingual model. There is probably some overlap that contains Tai Yai. I would give it a bunch of momentum with a starting prompt containing a lot of Tai Yai, like 3000 words plus as a lead into the actual task. If the language is there but not a primary part of training, you might get useful results.
Like I have an LLM that can write code snippets for the extremely obscure Flash Forth language for micro controllers simply by building momentum like this because the info is present in the base model, but is buried deep inside. Depends on your use case.
Anyways, I don’t pretend to know anything about you, but like, in the USA, Trump is basically running as a Nazi. He is the most dangerous threat to the entire world right now. Republicans are platonic sophists. If you live in areas they control, you only see the dumbest spins and bowdlerized garbage in all forms of easy to find media. It is inevitable, if Trump is elected or overthrows the government, millions of people will die; actually innocent people; people with ethics. It is part of our culture to say fuck that bullshit and value millions of people over Orange Hitler. I have deep respect for anyone that tried to kill Hitler during and before WW2. It takes a real patriot to set themselves aside completely for such a just and noble cause.
Thanks for the tip about preceding the LLM with a bunch of Tai Yai content, I’ll give that a shot.
You should block me if you think my contributions are a net negative to any discussion. I don’t want to ruin your day in any way
No no, was just explaining why I’m looking at your older posts/proving it/hinting to others. I like some of your posts that were memorable after a glance through. I just block obvious psychological ops junk when I suspect it might be. It is easier to spot them now when they just get hired or lack better fine tuning. Closer to the election in the USA it will only get worse and harder to spot ;)
Yeah, you’re not wrong. There has been quite the explosion of fresh accounts. Which surprises me, because you would think Lemmy isn’t a big enough target to be worth the effort. Maybe it’s just a form of professional pride to be a completionist
It is likely the primary driver of all the stalkerware data mining nonsense. Targeting independent thought to drown out any kind of reasonable discussion is a viable strategy. Academics, early adopters, and eccentrics are some of the most dangerous to a corrupt establishment. It only takes one or a few of the most brilliant devs to change the world. One of the primary strategies is content fatigue by the time of the election too.
Nah it was said in an official capacity mate, so uh fuck off eh?
