• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AI Killed My Job: Translators⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  AI didn’t take your job, you priced yourself out of the market.

  I’ve been on the technical side of delivering translation for better than 35 years. In that time I’ve had to adapt and learn new technologies as fast as they came out. What started as a challenging, if poorly paid, position has morphed into being a TV producer, director, camera operator, audio, lighting and video tech, translation specialist, computer programmer, network admin, and client handler.

  In that same 35 years interpreters and translators haven’t changed one iota: still handsomely paid, catered to, self-righteous and entitled; still prima donnas who reek of imagined superiority.

  Now I read about AI “taking” work from them? Guess what - AI won’t fall asleep while on the job. AI won’t shut down because it can’t see what kind of mic a speaker is using or there’s no water in the booth. AI won’t whinge and whine because lunch isn’t provided. AI won’t bitch because their hotel room is too hot/cold/noisy/near the pool/near the elevator/on too high a floor/on too low a floor, or show up to work uselessly hung over.

  Suck it up, buttercup, we’ve all had a tough go since Reagan and Thatcher decided corporations and profit outweighed the needs of people. You’ve been pampered forever, now, you have to work. Tough it out and learn to deal with it or fuck off.

  Racist and tone deaf. Tracks for pigs. I’ll allow it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨They're completely serious⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  And surprisingly tasty. It’s a complete package.

  ImageBNC looms large and RULES!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are most people here left-wing?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  By LEFT do you infer compassion, empathy, and class solidarity? In contrast, by RIGHT do you infer me-first, only my rights matter and only those in my clan deserve to be cared about?

  Then, yes.

  Dunno. I think them big chemical tiddies would make more of a “BRRRRRRR” noise when motorboated, versus the “BUBUBUBUBBBB” sound of actual real boobies.

  Now that’s some alliterative genius there!!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How Do Archers Resist Firing Arrows At Everyone In The Spectator Gallery?⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Keeping focus and not killing is a daily struggle for some. Although I carry a Desert Eagle Mk XIX Action Express 10in barrel loaded with Hornady .50 Cal AE cartridges I have yet to murder.

  Yet.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I just got out of the shower. what is with the product placement ?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I thought the products were an illustration of how much food is in his colon. You know: why he’s so full of shit.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Viral montage shows Tim Walz falsely being identified as retired 'command sergeant major' over a dozen times⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Tell me again about how he had bone spurs that kept earning him deferrals from service. Oh wait, that was the other guy, Fat Elvis. Or was it the press agent who bravely sat in an office for his deployment.

  <Insert tasteless couch joke here>

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon is a cop⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  So how many times did anon shoot the suspect - after conveniently “spilling” nacho sauce on the body cam?

  Very funny. 7/5

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Stay Mad⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  This is what Germany in 1929 was - without social media.

  Human banana for scale?
