People got mad at me for pointing out this is the case when people die because they listen to an AI chatbot, but it’s true. AI 100% needs more regulation, but introduce any new tool to everyone all at once, and some idiots will use it to remove themselves from the gene pool. If you sent everyone in the world a thin, 2in rod of inert iron, there would be a handful of people who would figure out a way to kill themselves with it.

So what? The man has already been impeached twice. Nothing happened. The Senate is the one that convicts and the Dems don’t have a chance in hell of taking back the Senate, so this is all a moot point.

A lot fucking less than the internet would have you believe. Take a second and examine all your evidence for believing “there are people who actually hold this opinion”. Does it all come from the internet? Almost entirely from no-context screenshots or clips that seem suspiciously scripted? Do you think maybe those aren’t the best sources?
That’s the problem every time these fake as shit posts are created. There are always folks in the comments that rush to defend it by going “well it might be fake THIS time, but it sounds like something that COULD happen, so I’m gonna still file it away as evidence that it does.”
Like, I’m sure SOME people exist like that. There are 8.3 billion people in this world, that’s enough that you can always find a handful that believe anything. There is a non-zero number of people that enjoy eating literal shit, but that doesn’t mean they are everywhere.
And before you say it (because this is always the reply), if your evidence for their existence is the results of elections, that is faulty logic. There is an ocean of separation between people who are simply idiots, and those that actually hold opinions like “Libraries are a waste cuz they’re full of books. Why book when internet?”

As a child, the ocean fascinated me. I wanted to learn everything I could. As I got older, and the world got worse, the things I learned grew more and more terrifying, until I eventually stopped searching for knowledge.
I don’t know how Marine Biologists and Oceanographers do it. To be surrounded every day with thousands of indicators and unquestionable data that all shows our oceans are fucked. And from hundreds of different ways too; it doesn’t even matter if you somehow fix global warming, there are so many other issues remaining that it’s still all fucked. It’s like if a guy walked into a hospital with every disease. Where the hell do you even start?

And the Lakota Sioux took it from the Cheyenne tribe by arrow point only 100 years prior to that. So yea, the Sioux had the land stolen from them by force, but they stole it by force themselves before that. And by this point, the US has controlled the land longer than the Sioux ever did.

Am I understanding that article right? Not only is the female a parasite on a different crustacean and loses all its libs and organs until it is just a sac with tendrils snaking through its host; but the male also attaches to the female and loses all its limbs and organs until it is just a set of gonads? That’s the weirdest fucking lifecycle I’ve ever heard of.

It’s not even an actual twitter link. It’s a relink site specifically for people that don’t want to use twitter. Maybe dial it down a bit there, chicken little?

You can go ahead and delete the first link and the quotes from the article.
No one; and I mean NO ONE wants to read an article about a 10 second video rather than just watching the video themselves. Completely fucking worthless.

Lazy ass parents not bothering to update the believability of Santa Claus. Just say there are multiple Santa’s all around the globe that work together. That’s why Santa sometimes looks different when you see him at different places. That’s why there can be a Black Santa, or Asian Santa.

Go to bakery, give them a flash drive, ask them to make a cake with a picture of the flashdrive.
“Umm… You mean use a picture on the flashdrive?”
“No, I want you to take a picture of the flashdrive itself and put it on the cake… It’s for a joke…”
“Ok, whatever, you’re the customer!”
Post picture of the cake you specifically requested “Omg! LoOk whAt thE BaKery diD!!!1”

When companies drill for oil, are they not drilling holes because only one end is open?
- Comment on How about the digestive system? 2 weeks ago:
I hate this logic. Of course there are two holes. Look, plug one end and do the unfold method in the comic again so instead of one hole in the center, it’s just a solid disk. Does that mean if the straw is plugged at one end there are zero holes? Of course not.
- Comment on What’s up with Myrrh being more prevalent? 2 weeks ago:
This is the answer. A few days back, the Wordle word was “Myrrh”, which fucked a lot of people up because it’s an uncommon word and spelled very strangely. Because of that, people have been talking about the word a lot, which has in turn caused it to be used a lot recently. All these people talking about Baader-Meinhof are just pulling an assumption out of their ass because they don’t know the real reason.
You’re not imagining things OP.
- Comment on Is there a point we can track down when we stopped caring about doctors, nurses, teacher, etc? And thought it was a great idea to pay atheletes millions and screw everyone else? 2 weeks ago:
I sure do. Of course doctors and nurses were essential because it was a health crisis. But it was grocery store workers, Starbucks baristas, Amazon warehouse workers. I remember sports teams and reality TV contestants being put in quarantine so they could safely compete. I remember it wasn’t teachers, as classes went online only for about a year and a half.
So what’s your point?

- Comment on After GOTY pull, Clair Obscur devs draw line in sand: 'Everything will be made by humans by us' 2 weeks ago:
Dude, it was 2022. AI was nothing back then. Certainly not something that people were debating the morality of at the time. It was a new tool. A developer tried it out for a few very minor assets that were only meant to be placeholders. This was’t “literally removing work from a human(concept artist)”. FFS, it probably was the concept artist who used it!
Like imagine a new type of paint comes out that’s supposed to spread on canvas better. An artist gets some and tries a few test strokes on a blank canvas, goes “huh, interesting”, and then paints over it entirely with traditional paint. Then, the public turns against the new paint. Maybe it’s made from orphan blood, maybe it causes cancer; it doesn’t matter why, but it is now heavily frowned upon to use it. An art studio displaying the original artists work puts out a claim that none of their art uses the new type of paint. Were they lying? Like, ya technically I guess, but if you can’t see the nuance and understand how such a thing could happen, then your logic is less that of a human, and more that of a machine.

They already had the replacement assets created upon release, but forgot to swap them out and it was missed in QA. That’s why, pretty much as soon as they discovered it, they got it all replaced just 5 days after release.
It’s pretty common for games to mistakenly release with minor assets still as placeholders instead of the official version. Who’s really going to look at the texture of a rock and be like “Wait just a minute! That’s not the official rock texture!”

Go into a Math based field. No more trying to read your professor’s personalities to figure out what their opinions are so you can bullshit them into a good grade. Just cold, hard numbers. Often many ways to get to the same answer, but at the end, you are either right, or you are wrong.
I can’t stand subjective questions. How the fuck are you going to tell me that my interpretation of an abstract concept is wrong?! I’ll stick with numbers, thank you.

- Comment on What are some cool infections? 3 weeks ago:
It’s not really an infection, but compartment syndrome is something that can happen in legs after an injury. Basically internal swelling of the muscles which starts to damage tissue once the pressure gets too high. It causes severe pain, and in some cases can eventually require amputation if left untreated.
The treatment is… brutal. It’s called a fasciotomy and fits well with the setting of pre-modern medicine as it hasn’t really changed much since the 1800’s. Basically, a doctor makes a long, deep cut, almost down your entire leg, until your leg is basically filleted open. Sometimes, multiple of these cuts are needed all around the leg. The cuts must be kept open until pressure is relieved, which can take hours or days, at which point they are structured up. I would recommend avoiding pictures if you are squeamish.
