this makes me so mad

it’s not a pacemaker though, it’s a hammer. and sometimes the head flies off a hammer and hits someone in the skull. but no one disputes the fact that hammers are essential tools.

you’re getting down voted because you accurately conceive of and treat LLMs the way they should be—as tools. the people down voting you do not have this perspective because the only perspective pushed to people outside of a technical career or research is “it’s artificial intelligence and it will revolutionize society but lol it hallucinates if you ask it stuff”. This is essentially propaganda because the real message should be “it’s an imperfect tool like all tools but boy will it make getting a lot of certain types of work done way more efficient so we can redistribute our own efforts to other tasks quicker and take advantage of LLMs advanced information processing capabilities”

tldr: people disagree about AI/LLMs because one group thinks about them like Dr. Know from the movie A.I. and the other thinks about them like a TI-86+ on steroids

i imagine this would be fun once when novel and then very irritating every other time

Voices of the Void on Itch.io. it’s sort of like xfiles: the rpg. you live in a satellite field and you use old equipment to track suspicious signals from space and sell them off for upgrades and supply money. Things… happen. while you’re carrying out this peaceful existence. suspicious, freaky things. 🛸

it’s been out for a couple years now and it’s very far in development but they are saving the steam listing for a more full release.

edit: go into this game blind

i don’t think people need to justify Airbnb’s, it’s a great alternative to a hotel for many reasons including those you listed. What needs to be addressed is the damage the shareholders who are running the company are doing to society. let’s not give them too much credit about this choice: they are still sucking up homes from homeowners and removing money from the middle class. they only made this change because someone realized it will make them more money.

they literally just said they’ve been the same size since grade school. this is what you do: -go into shoe store. -grab pair of shoes in same size you currently wear. -too big? grab a size down. too small? go up. -stand in line and purchase shoes -leave store with dignity in tact from small feet shame

***BONUS POINTS if an employee tries to help you and you tell them “I’m okay, i can handle it.”

why…why do you keep getting your feet sized if they haven’t grown since childhood??? you know your size! be a man and pick out your own fucking shoes!

so…they intentionally lied to artificially increase demand and make their product look more compelling? can we get some fucking consumer protections regulations for fucks sake?? they’re killing us out there

if it’s anything like the other ai features they offer, it will be garbage and never work and slow everything down

this might be tricky, the overly detailed illustrations of messed up looking characters was a pretty common bit on the show

oh snap, turns out I have all these versions! which would be good to start with? I know nothing about the entire franchise

i am gay and i have always struggled with this question, because i have absolutely sucked straight men off. but like… that’s not straight is it?

that’s gunna be a lot of sad kids on Christmas when the great depression 2 has settled in

i recently got a retro handheld and loaded it with full libraries in case i ever randomly want to play something from the past without any fuss.

put this game in my favorites list to check out! never heard even a single thing about it and would have dismissed it based on title and cover.

they aren’t movies, but Doctor Who is a fantastic show for the whole family. maybe start at Matt Smith episodes unless they don’t mind cheesier effects and costumes.

dude…i am disabled and receive ssi… I don’t want an account on X??? wtf?

have another

i got a Powkiddy rgb20sx and I LOVE IT. SO MUCH.

i agree with everything you said, they take some willingness to tinker but boy is the payoff worth it. now that i have the library set up i can swap it out with any device and play anything in the future. i was never a big fan of portable consoles, but having all the retro titles in one little machine is just such a perfect thing. i only paid 60 bucks for my powkiddy, worth every penny

i took “touchable” to mean you could literally feel the shape with your senses, but it appears what they are saying is it’s a way to interact with it, via pass through in various ways, etc. still pretty cool though
