I vividly remember purchasing Final Fantasy 3 in the early 90 for $69.95. It was the first video game I purchased with my own money and it was like a years worth of allowance.

Haha. You aren’t wrong.

O’Brien is what I thought of.

Reminds me of CGP Greys’ “The Rules for Rulers”. It’s just a matter of navigating the keys to power.

So Trump if he attains office. Got it.

I Liked the comment but look at this guy’s post history. Ya’ll took the bait. Russian bot/troll/Pro Trump account that only spouts things such as “Liberal pussy foot neo-leftist commie bastard clown fart”. 100’s of short one line insane posts in the last hour alone.

I know but I was curious to see what it would do and was surprised that it produced a plot for me. Not sure why I’m surprised at this point.

Well… I was not aware Chatgpt could make simple graphs.

My wife and I both forgot the year we were married during a conversation last week. It went a lot like the one in the transcript. “That was 2022? No wait, 2021? Let me pull up the pictures on my phone to see the date…”.

We have only been married 3 years. To be fair, we have been together for 12.

I’m sure it’s like pissing into the ocean but I went back and edited my most popular posts and replaced them with AI generated nonsense that is supposed to be difficult to classify for LLM AI’s. I doubt it will have an effect but it would certainly be funny if you had enough people do it.

I guess because they are grammatically correct but contain paradoxes, ambiguity, and are utter nonsense.
Here are some samples:
“Silent thunder vibrates noiselessly through the colorful darkness, illuminating unseen sights with invisible light in a transparent fog.”
“The invisible painting, clear as day, vividly colors the transparent wall, telling untold stories in a language never spoken.”
“The motionless wind, still yet turbulent, swiftly calms the turbulent stillness of a restless peace in a serene tempest.”

This is why I love this place. A very well-thought-out detailed response. I agree with you in most parts here but I do have, and I concede this could be irrational on my part, a fear of small-scale localized armed violence. It might not spread into something large but that doesn’t matter if you become the victim of it.

All that said, I never have settled on my own personal opinion on the principle of always punch a Nazi. I’m very much on the fence on that one, and I think it comes down to how effectively boundaries have been communicated before enforcement begins, which will unfortunately vary case-to-case.

I think the rhetoric/idea of “always punch a Nazi” was effective at putting societal pressure on keeping people from becoming “nazis” or at least suppressing outward expressions of hate (or at least hate we all agreed upon as being “bad”). You are right in that this is an information war but the problem with information wars is that people tend to defer to confirmation bias and actively seek out the answers that align with their existing ideology.

Also, the Irony isn’t lost on me that we are having this discussion on a site that leans very liberal so we do have our echo chambers as well.

But appeasement doesn’t work and that can be seen repeatedly in history. Try everything you can but at the end of the day, if both sides aren’t trying for the same goal, it would be naive to not prepare for the alternative. Try for the best but prepare for the worst.

Yea, I feel so bad for the republicans who can’t get dates because they are racist, homophobic, ignorant assholes. You are right, that’s directly equal to physical harassment and abuse.

These threads are great because it allows me to easily isolate, find and block the obvious trolls. Man, you and isthereany are so angry. Your post histories read like typical Youtube comments. Pot, kettle?

There aren’t any laws pushing for it so isn’t it just the free market economy at work? People want to see how clothes look on objects that look like them. Most people are ugly and overweight in the “western” world. Look, if changing what a model looked like moved the revenue needle one way or another, companies are going to do it.

A well reasoned argument and a good point.

I voted third party for the same reason. I thought Trump would do so many stupid things that the courts would actually put up guard rails and we would see some limits to the expanded power that the executive branch has been creeping into over the past few decades.

Would you like to know which state has the most number of registered republicans? It’s California. California just happens to be the most populous state with only 25% of it’s populous being Republican. Voting absolutely matters and despite California being predominantly Democrat controlled, if regular people don’t vote, these racist country destroying inbred fucks will.

I have a high-stress job but I will say I look forward to my daily routine of coming home, changing into shorts and a t-shirt, and taking a few puffs from a cannabis vape pen while I listen to an audiobook and playing a mindless mobile game for an hour. It gets my mind right and helps me transition to home life.
