badposting is a comm where you post badly


This is not a !the_dunk_tank@hexbear.net alternative. This is not a !memes@hexbear.net alternative. This is a place for you to post your bad posts.

Ever had a really shitty bit idea? Joke you want to take way past the point of where it was funny? Want to feel like a stand-up comedy guy who's been bombing a set for the past 30 minutes straight and at this point is just saying shit to see if people react to it? Really bad pun? A homemade cringe concoction? A cognitohazard that you have birthed into this world and have an urge to spread like chain mail?


Rules:

  1. Do not post good posts.
    • Unauthorized goodposting is to be punished in the manner of commenting the phrase "GOOD post" followed by an emoji that has not yet been used in the thread
    • Use an emoticon/kaomoji/rule-three-abiding ASCII art if the rations run out
  2. This is not a comm where you direct people to other people's bad posts. This is a comm where you post badly.
  3. This rule intentionally left blank.
  4. If you're struck for rule 3, skill issue, not allowed to complain about it.

Code of Conduct applies just as much here as it does everywhere else. Technically, CoC violations are bad posts. On the other hand: L + ratio + get ~~better~~ worse material bozo

The LLMs are built to give you the answer you want to hear, if you ask for something, they will happily tell you they are providing it to you, even when it is literally beyond their capabilities. I once spent a despressingly long amount of time wrestling with one to get a 2000 word response, just Lorem Ipsum type stuff, but it was completely incapable of actually giving me the correct amount of text, but kept saying it was and apologising while not actually providing me what I asked for. Turns out that particular model had a roughly 750 word limit on responses, but they don't actually tell you what they can and cant' do, because you can't sell them as a magical cure all solution to all tech problems if they actually lay out the very specific things that they can actually do instead of pretending they can do anything.

Fyi you can open word and type lorem=(paragraph, sentences) and it will give you all the lorem ipsum text you need.

It always starts the same way ...

  • Certainly I can ...
  • Certainly! ...
  • Exactly, you ...
  • Yes ...
