I think it’s more you as a person understand that the sentence is that, a sentence. You understand how the sentence is made, why it means what it means, not just what it means.
The dog only understands the what.
Doesn’t mean you still can’t help teach dogs to communicate. Even saw a segment recently on PBS about dogs learning to use buttons that produce words and using them to make short sentences to communicate with their owners.
Endless Sky is on mobile now?!
Unfortunately 99% do suck ass these days. Rewind a decade and the Play Store used to have so many great games, even the free ones.
If you need decent mobile games:
Space RPG series
Space Courser (not sure if it still exists)
Space Traders: Frontiers
Mindustry (free and open source!!!)
BTD5 & 6 (personally I use the Netflix editions)
Terraria
Stardew Valley
Deadcells
Wizard of Legend
Villagers and Heroes (old school, small MMO cross platform with PC)
Albion Online (same as above but bigger and newer)
World of Goo
Hyperspace Delivery Service
Elder Scrolls Legends (I think it shutdown?)
Polytopia
Minecraft
Gladiabots
Pokemon Showdown (technically a web app)
A whole assortment of console emulators!
I don’t know why you’d get that vibe from Rossman like the other commenter said. Only watched a few of his videos but his politics just seem to be “stop fucking over consumers”. Right wing my ass.
Wild how this is a controversial comment when Lemmy is supposedly left leaning.
Never been homeless but I’d definitely take it over slavery. It has to be better than being a flesh robot.
Not only is freedom priceless (my opinion), but I’m sure as hell not enriching someone else to my own detriment.
Why is this even downvoted.
It must have been awful discovering this.
I’ve only drank alcohol once and it wasn’t enough to get drunk. Was one of those fancy drinks that had rum and vanilla(?), very sweet. Had to pace myself though because it kept burning my throat. Probably wasn’t much since I never felt anything afterward.
The comedic bits were one of the few highlights for me in TLJ. Weird how positive you came out of it. RoS was one of the few movies I’ve watched where I dislike it during the middle of the runtime. I thought the online reception of it was exaggerated but I came out thinking “I get it now”.
Also, the plot points you mentioned I wanted to like when they were shown but they were always a let down. Like the Palpatine fight with the cultists watching was so thematic but the actual fight was so bad. The light saber toss with the psychic link was cool though (even if it did make my eyebrow raise out of my forehead in how odd the rules are for it).
Odd. What did you like about RoS? I barely remember anything good from it. Only forgettable movie.
Ooo, now this is a nuclear take.
TFA was the only good sequel movie. Shit was cool, don’t care if derivative.
I just say my Spanish fluent. I can have a conversation, but it will have a lot of pauses as I try to remember a word. Certainly not usable at an academic level.
I was graced by parents who don’t know their own language very well. Google Translate’s more reliable, so there is a lot of vocabulary I don’t know simply because it’s never been brought up in my family.
I just consider English my main language. I feel bad for the immigrants who were raised not even knowing their language though. Met a few.
Just a few examples of my use cases but yes. It’s an even quicker search engine.
I was in the same boat a while ago when I had to use React for remaking a UI (was reworking the whole backend). I’ve never tried writing something in JS/TS, so it was super helpful having Copilot guide my hand. Took me a day but had a beautiful little interactive window by the end of it!
I used the Bing AI (back when it was called that) to try to find a mall I went to many years ago. It was brand new and still had some parts being built so it looked very different to today, which made it difficult to find. Neither me nor my mother remembered the name or any stores, just the general area it was in. Took some time but the AI was able to discern what mall it was from the details I gave it.
People have to view them less as general AI and more like search engines you can have a back and forth with.
Very wise. Terrifying to think an aerospace company would use AI.
Bit sad reading these comments. My life has measurably improved ever since I jumped on using AI.
At first I just used it Copilot for helping me with my code. I like using a pretty archaic language and it kept trying to fed me C++ code. Had to link it the online reference and it surprisingly was able to adapt each time. Still gave a few errors here and there but good time saver and “someone” to “discuss” with.
Over time it has become super good, especially with the VScode extension that autofills code. Instead of having to ask help from one of the couple hundred people experienced with the language, I can just ask Copilot if I can do X or Y, or for general advice when planning out how to implement something. Legitimately a great and powerful tool, so it shocks me that some people don’t use it for programming (but I am pretty bad at coding too, so).
I’ve also bit the bullet and used it for college work. At first it was just asking Gemini for refreshers on what X philosophical concept was, but it devolved into just asking for answers because that class was such a snooze I could not tolerate continuing to pay attention (and I went into this thinking I’d love the class!). Then I used it for my Geology class because I could not be assed to devote my time to that gen ed requirement. I can’t bring myself to read about rocks and tectonic plates when I could just paste the question into Google and I get the right answer in seconds. At first I would meticulously check for sources to prevent mistakes from the AI buuuut I don’t really need 100%… 85% is good enough and saves so much more time.
A me 5 years younger would be disgusted at cheating but I’m paying thousands and thousands to pass these dumb roadblocks. I just want to learn about computers, man.
Now I’d never use AI for writing my essays because I do enjoy writing them (investigating and drawing your own conclusions is fun!), but this economics class is making it so tempting. The shit that I give about economics is so infinitesimally small.
I thought all dogs were smarter than people thought because my first one (Yorkie) was practically a little kid in how he could understand me. I could tell him to go somewhere and he’d do it. He let me know if he needed to pee outside or if he was hungry. Always surprised me how much a dog could understand!
Then I got a new one recently (Goldendoodle) and this little guy is a complete dumbass.
I suspect it may come down to experience though. Yorkie was already about 4 when we got him and only took about a year for me and him to really understand each other. The Doodle we got when he was only a little over a month old and we’ve had him close to a year but it has been a pain to train. Could also just be down to personality, because he has done some pretty intelligent things that surprised us.
