That solves maybe a single problem associated with AI. Energy and water use is still massive, nobody’s job prospects are improved in any way, the brain drain still happens, and creativity still goes to die in a corner.

They didn’t prevent anything, they just said no and then the thing didn’t happen because they said no and for literally no other reason. But it wasn’t Nintendo’s fault!

They prevented Dolphin from getting on steam (for free) a few years ago, so I certainly wouldn’t say “never.”

Right, because that’s everything stopped them in the past. If you can’t afford a multi-year long legal battle against some of the best lawyers in the world, it doesn’t really matter if you’re right or not, because you can’t even play the game.

How is “upscaling while preserving it” not the exact same philosophy as “enhance by applying a filter?”

You just don’t like the specific filter, it’s very literally the same process.

Meh, Edge is no worse than Chrome at this point (because it’s chromium now)… Which is still mediocre, but it’s not horrible

Hard sell after Super Meat Boy Forever… I’ll be waiting for reviews, for sure

I bounced off when he described “the one piece nobody had thought of” for the third time without actually saying which piece. Fucking keep-watching-bait bullshit

Your boss is starting to get scared, huh

The guy is a piece of shit, sure, but how does the fucking FBI only have access to two planes?

Never really been without water, but I’ve avoided eating for ~3 days due to illness a couple times. It’s kinda easy when there’s a reason for it (nausea, mostly) - when you know the alternative is worse, short-term hunger is only mildly annoying.

The republicans are doing literally everything in their power to protect pedophiles and child sex traffickers. If raping and murdering 12-year old girls isn’t too much for them, what makes you believe that republican-led states would agree to anything other than increasing their own power or wealth?

Here is counter example for you. What about, in the middle of your special times session, a barrage of political discussion, news reports, Gaza footage, imagery of children starving, oceans dying because of pollution, and just when you are about to shoot your special milk, your porn content is replaced with grandmas playing Christmas plays.

I would scroll past it… literally the exact same way I interact with all of the content here that I’m not interested in.

there were batches of tens of porn communities

😱😱😱😱😱😱😱

That’s like an entire turn of my mouse wheel. Unacceptable, no wonder you’re so mad, that’s absolutely insane

Sorry, I forgot “normal people” are afraid of being reminded that porn exists somewhere else on the internet 🙄 nobody’s forcing you to visit the subs.

…why are they any different than any other community you don’t care about? There aren’t pictures included in the announcements, and you can easily scroll past the post.

Hard to say, but I think so?

I make a lot more money than they did, but am often very stressed because my job is relatively high-stakes.

I have a happier marriage, which is probably the most important factor, but have found it quite difficult to be a parent. Obviously nobody else feels this way 🤪 but for real, I think parent responsibilities have gotten totally out of hand - I used to roam the streets until dark at 10 years old, but now you get the cops called on you if your 12-year-old walks down the street unaccompanied.

My parents lived through the Vietnam War and Iraq/etc, but the world still feels significantly less stable than even during those times. I worry my children are going to grow up in an openly pedophilic, labor-obsessed dystopia (as if we aren’t already there) - the stress is astounding.

My conspiracy theory brain says in a decade or two the government will be filled with rich people and friends et al.

Oh no, don’t threaten me with… the status quo! 😱😱😱

Man, people can’t help but post stuff they like and is popular, not stuff that’s almost never talked about. Anyway…

Man, you really missed an opportunity to suggest something like… Friends or Superman after that

It’s not, but the people who are asking are often not tech-savvy, and any amount of self-hosting will be hard for them
