Just smoking some meats, fellow human πŸ§‘β€πŸ¦²

Am I crazy, or is that way too close to those trees and bushes?

[–] [email protected] 77 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Do not be alarmed fellow human, I have used my thermal sensors to determine that the flames are at a sufficient distance from the foliage

[–] [email protected] 10 points 6 months ago (1 children)

External thermal sensors of course. Everyone knows us humans do not have the capability to detect infrared.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 6 months ago

Yes of course. I am human after all and I do not have any thermal imaging equipment installed in my human retinas. That would be perplexing wouldn’t it?

You ever see someone do something they have been doing wrong for years and have missed important aspects that concern safety because they learned how to do it from analyzing a database entry on the subject instead of being taught by someone passing down generations of experience shaped through past failures? Because you have.

I think you're describing me trying to do 75% of my interests/ hobbies.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 6 months ago

ADHD do be like that.

Could be a weird perspective thing.

Trunks look fine but the bush might not be, weird perspective mostly

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago

It looks like he's smoking a load of meat, given the smoke and the dangle of temp proves at the bottom. It's not likely for the BBQ to be that hot, relatively speaking - maybe 250F but probably lower.

It's impossible to tell without knowing the focal length of the lens used. Different camera lenses can make things appear closer or further to each other than they actually are.

The light hitting the tree trunk had me thinking the smoker was just casually on fire behind him lmao.

Right?? No, there ideally shouldn't be gouts of flame spewing from the enclosed top of a grill like that. πŸ˜† That optical illusion is near perfect lol.

But there's a ton that's just a bit unsettling about this picture. Like the super bloodshot wide eyes for instance. For some reason "and also the smoker's on fire" seems mundane.

Application of increased flame hastens the bacterial destruction

Fellow humans should I finish the bird muscle with a saccharine concoction, an overfermented grape extract concoction, or a ground plant concoction from the geographic region of Carolina? I know us fellow humans frequently debate the proper and just pairing of concoction and flesh.

I actually started to like Zuck a bit more after he accepted Elon's fight

[–] [email protected] 8 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Did they ever fight tho? I imagine that the muskrat would chicken out. Zuckerberg is much younger, much fitter and actually has some martial arts training, so he would have mopped the floor with him and I'm not sure if it would fit into Musk's self-image to allow that to become reality.

[–] [email protected] 27 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

Elon's mom said no lol

I wonder if people are writing these things or using an AI to describe an action in the style of, I don’t know, a non-human or a robot.

If it’s the latter I’ll love to get the prompt for making these as they’re quite amusing.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 6 months ago

I am able to channel this voice ironically.

Sometimes, you pick up words so alien that you end up replacing the regular word, like domicile.

"Welcome to my domicile where we can refresh with our favorite inebriants and watch fellow humans engage in roughhousing with opposing humans. We can provide praise to the successors and belittle their counterparts!"

If this style of writing is your thing, there's a webcomic/book by Nathan Pyle that you would like. Here's his website if you want to check his social media.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 6 months ago

This is right up my street. Thanks for sharing.

I also love cats so that’s a bonus for the first link.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Vegans already think about grilling meat in terms of charring animal carcasses.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Well, technically they're not wrong

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago (1 children)

It’s all true. The bird muscle, the animal flesh, the carcasses and the propensity of humans to cook it so we can tolerate eat it. This is unlike obligate carnivores like our cats which enjoy ripping the flesh off the bone with their teeth and eating the bird muscle right off the fresh carcass.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

The reason we cook meat is not that we would otherwise be unable to process the nutrients, it's to save ourselves from getting worms and parasites. In contrast to humans, wild animals are often infested with them and if they knew how to make fire and cook, I'm sure your cat would do barbecues as well because it's just better to not get sick.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago (2 children)

I think it's a bit concerning that AI has given us a gut reaction to suspect anything slightly unusual to be non-human generated.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago

So the reason I asked was more the fact I have seen two of the same templates using Zuck just today so it made me wonder if it was a new trend, rather than a role creator.

Not that I decided one way or the other how it was made.

Your observation touches on a transformative shift in our perception and interaction with content in the digital age. The proliferation of advanced AI technologies, especially those capable of generating text, images, videos, and even audio, has indeed sparked a new form of skepticism among many users.

This change can have both positive and negative implications:

Positive Aspects

  1. Critical Thinking: [on and on]

I understand your concern. The increasing presence of AI-generated content online has understandably led to some wariness and skepticism, as people want to be able to distinguish between human-created and AI-generated information. However, I would caution against overgeneralizing or assuming that anything slightly unusual is necessarily non-human.

Creativity, unique perspectives, and novel ideas are not the sole domain of humans. As AI systems become more advanced, they are able to generate content that can be just as original, thought-provoking, and compelling as human-created work. [on and on]


The robots have weighed in, and they get it - but don’t be too hasty or ignore the positives!

I think OP might’ve been written by a creative writer. Wonder if we’ll still care ten years from now. Or care more…

He might b a robot from outer space and maybe even because of this, he is the least shitty of the entire bunch. Think about it.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago

no, thank you, but no.
