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:
another advantage of tarot over LLMs for youtube content: asking the cards highly specific and technical questions is extremely funny
like, here, we'll do this right now:
Q: "How do I configure the fan control on my graphics card?"
A: The Empress, reversed - you have hit a creative block, and you need to accept that you are dependent on others.
...and then you smash-cut to a screen recording of you typing your question into Reddit or a forum or something
(on which note: if anyone else has been having issues with LACT on NixOS 24.05 with KDE Plasma 6.0.5 under Wayland, hit us up - we can't figure this out)
@Packbat
Also, middle management and upwards, team leads, and all nontechnical leaders of technical people.
@silvermoon82 frankly, also technical people - we would trust code authored by cartomancy over that authored by Microsoft Copilot
@Packbat ah, sorry, we don't use KDE. good luck.
@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
@neckspike true!
Q: What's the best way for us to learn SQL?
A: Ashnod's Transmogrant - Artifact, 1 colorless: Tap and sacrifice Ashnod's Transmogrant to put a +1/+1 counter on target nonartifact creature. That creature becomes an artifact creature permanently. (Ashnod found few willing to trade their humanity for the power she offered.)
...okay we're struggling to interpret this one.
@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 @neckspike become a robot?
@raindrops generally a good strategy, true
@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!
