proposal to all youtube video producers: the next time you think of asking ChatGPT a question for a video, consider drawing a tarot card instead:

  1. environmentally friendly
  2. does not support an anti-labor business
  3. far fewer people traumatized by abusive imagery in the course of its creation
  4. way less plagiarism involved
  5. equally reliable source of information

@Packbat

I'm curious about your character set in this post. I see sometimes it looks like there should be a line return in people's posts but instead the words run right into each other without even a space. Do you know what is doing this? (I'm really just curious, not trying to change anyone here, 😅)

@Packbat here's a picture to show what i see

@RnDanger Ah - the original post has an HTML list, so presumably either your instance or your client is discarding the ol and all the li tags and just glomming the whole thing together.

@Packbat
Yes, that makes sense now. I was almost coming to think it must be a numbered list format too 🙃

@Packbat even funnier if you use something that isn't a tarot deck, like the guy who does readings with a stack of sesame street flash cards

@Packbat @neckspike sounds like a sacrifice must be made to learn it but few are willing to make that sacrifice

@RadiantEmber I guess technically we're sacrificing being able to just use the form wizard in LibreOffice Base 🤔

@Packbat well clearly a deserving candidate--looking at you, Aaron from dev-ops who swiped the last fruit salad cup--must be sacrified to the computer banks. @neckspike

@Packbat@indiepocalypse.social you can also ask a small child, they'll probably say something weird and creative to get your imagination started

@Packbat Somewhat unrelated, but a friend of mine was telling me the other day she has a hard time finding custom made tarot deck these days where the back design wasn't clearly AI generated. So they've apparently found a way to start ruining tarot as well.

@Packbat 5 is a bit unfair - a tarot card is never going to say "yes, this amanita phalloides is definitely safe to eat". It might even be Death.

@denisbloodnok nnn ... you might not be wrong on that one. you defos can fool yourself by saying the cards show you're right though 🤔

@Packbat also it calls on your own creativity!
