It’s a masterclass in externalities: local communities face the consequences of the resource consumption by the data centers.

Job loss: were all told the “knowledge market” is where you deserve a good salary. AI threatens a lot of that work. Blue collar factory work will go as soon as AI can be properly integrated with nimble robotics that aren’t quite there yet. With how disgusting our society is (in the US) there will be no consideration for the people who can no longer find work.

Wealth built on theft and gambling: people like Altman become fabulously wealthy with a system that makes 0 profit and has been built off of the stolen works of millions of people.

Capacity to manipulate: we’ve had enough trouble with bad faith actors on the Internet with real people. Now we’re going to have an endless army of “intelligent” actors that will be weaponized against populations worldwide to secure the position of the ultra wealthy over all of our governments.

I didn’t before much, but now I REALLY don’t have a positive outlook on our future because of this…

The timing of this is hilarious to be honest, they just released their only anime school girl character in the patch that dropped like 2-3 weeks ago lol before then there wasn’t anything really like that.

This recent patch goes against the whole feel of the game and was created as a “love letter to anime” as people seem to be describing it as. It’s chock full of references to anime where the main game does do that, but not nearly to the extent this patch did lol

and is thankfully not nearly as sexualized as the theme often carries)

Until you see her M6 art reveal lol…

I tend not to recommend them because you never know who has a gambling problem (

That’s a fair point. They even got me for a while, I got too comfortable being ok with “supporting” the company since I loved the game so much and before you know it 6 months later I’ve spent like $700 on it…

I can understand wuthering waves. I never in 10000000 years thought I’d be saying something like this about a gacha game, but wuthering waves is probably my favorite game in like God knows how many years. The combat is really fun, it all looks absolutely amazing on pc, the story is great even side quests and side stories (a freaking character side quest had me crying as a 40 year old man…) it’s really just a good game.

I’d honestly suggest more people try it, you 100% do not need to spend any money whatsoever to enjoy the game and its story. When needed you get “trial” characters set to the appropriate level to complete story stuff and they’ve actually made a main character who isn’t complete and utter dogshit. They’re good in many team compositions.

The only place you’d feel like maybe you want to spend is if you want to do the dick measuring sweaty gamer endgame fights at the hardest difficulty, but it’s still doable without them.

For ram at least it’s not supply and demand, it’s companies deciding that it’s more profitable to sell directly to AI companies so they literally drop their consumer products division completely. :/

¿Porque no los dos?

Something about the scale doesn’t seem right, but otherwise it’s possible just insanely difficult to get this kind of detail.

Every astrophotography site I find has pictures nowhere near this quality, but their exposure times are also 8-10 hours not 28

Stupid fucking fake AI images! Toast wasn’t invented until 2018… The toaster has been around for literal decades without a use until the invention of toast.

It’s like people never went to school or payed attention in breakfast class…

Is this what that uncanny “too smooth” look is on my parents TV? Whenever I’d go to visit them whatever they had on always looked like the camera motion or character movement was way too smooth to the point it was kind of unsettling.

This is how I feel literally every single day, and somehow every single day gives me a new reason to feel like this… I’m so sick of this timeline…

The US. It’s not my home though, it’s her garage. Rent prices are so absolutely fucking atrocious that a single person can’t even afford to rent a house let alone own one, you need 2 incomes for 1 life… So I rent a garage “apartment.”

Ding ding ding, winner! Lol

I wish I had a dryer! I’m hanging clothes like it’s 1920 lol

The last idiot never cleaned the lint trap and stared a fire so my landlord is afraid of letting tenants have a dryer…

At this point I feel like any title could be “AI is destroying _______” and it would be correct. I hate this timeline. :/

I haven’t smelled it in a while, but I don’t think I remember it smelling rotten. It wasn’t pleasant but also wasn’t really disgusting, it was just odd.

And still lose their minds when you correctly label them as Nazis…

I don’t know what it is, but I can smell a somewhat metallic type smell on some specific people’s breath. It always smells very similar between different people. They generally aren’t very healthy, but no one seems to know what I’m talking about.

Energy Innovation

We’ve innovated! Now we have the technology to burn 10x more oil in everyday applications with no additional efficiency!

MAGA brain: Boston University = blue state = fake study! I can safely ignore this because it wasn’t done by the Texas Steakhouse Gun and God Church of Donald Trump the Magnificent. But even if it was, it would be fake news if it didn’t say want I wanted it to say.
