If the universe is infinite in size it is a statistical requirement for a god, or a being that has ability we would consider to be godlike, must exist somewhere.

This is gonna target 100% minority and neurodivergent folks i guarantee it.
- Comment on IGORR - ADHD: An AI generated music video. 1 week ago:
I’ve been arguing for a while that AI will change the art landscape, and I mostly get hate for it. I’m an artist, I use AI as a springboard for inspiration, feeding nonsense into prompts and making sense of the garbage it sends back fit’s nicely into my entropy focused creation process.
A good artist will be able to pick up a tool and learn to create with it. Anyone can make a prompt and slap an image down with an AI model but it takes an artist to make art with one. Same with brushes though, or pens or pencils. Any jagoff can pick up a set of brushes and lay paint on a canvas but it takes an artist to make art with them.

But I want to contribute to humanity in a meaningful way!
-me, a dork on the Fediverse nearly incapable of contributing to humanity in a meaninful way
- Comment on shrimp colour drama 1 week ago:
I disagree that it’s pointless. I think it may be beneficial to humanity (eventually) to establish whether or not there is an objective reality which we all experience.

The point that the cat was to prove it was a stupid discussion but ended up being the perfect model with which to explain the concept of superposition to people who don’t understand it?

Never understood why folks used acrylic bongs, like, how do you clean it? I kinda figured they were meant as disposable party bongs.
- Comment on Online Wars Aside, 'Snow White' Simply Isn't Getting Moviegoers to Buy In 4 weeks ago:
Maybe I’d want to see disney remake a movie with modern ideals and values, but Disney doesn’t have ideals or values. That’s why this has taken over a decade, bastards keep scrapping it every time they get a little bit of heat. Same reason the sequel trilogy was half baked. Just leave it in the fucking oven til it’s done, stop giving the whole world a view so far from the finish line.

My bad, I meant order, they’re distant cousins in the Hymenoptera order.

Bees and ants are in the wasp family.
If wasps go, so to does much of the biodiversity among pollinators.

I’ve run into an issue lately where nearly everything I torrent is from IA, who has 2 webseeds. I can sit there seeding for weeks and still be at a 0.0 ratio
- Comment on Amazon's previous VP of Prime Gaming said they "tried everything" to disrupt Steam 1 month ago:
I’ve never even heard of prime gaming, if they wanted to disrupt steam they should have tried harder.
Regardless, good, fuck Amazon I’m glad this failed.
- Comment on What's your "this is totally fine and I'm going to have a great time" FPS? 1 month ago:
Depends on the game, but also the context.
Maybe this has changed since I’ve upgraded my gaming specs but I used to average 14 FPS on Kerbal Space Program and had a great time with it, docking is a nightmare at that frame rate but otherwise it’s more than playable.
Back in my poverty gaming days I 100%-ed a pirated The Simpsons Hit and Run with potato graphics at slide show speeds, I’m talking like multiple seconds per frame with around 80% frame droppage.
Nowadays I just care that it looks decent and runs smoothly for the games I play, which is mostly Civilization and Stellaris

Looks to have the same features, Heliboard appears to use the Swype library from SwiftKey which is a close source blob, use that info how you will.

- Comment on How did a simple phone call become so problematic? 2 months ago:
I had a flip phone because I was a latchkey kid who walked to school. My parents wanted to be able to contact me and vice versa.
- Comment on How did a simple phone call become so problematic? 2 months ago:
Easy:
Between ages 13 and 18 if I received a phone call it was because I was in trouble, so now when I get one there is a pang of guilt and panic over whatever it is I could have possibly done

Not sure how I’d go about checking that, it isn’t listed as an anti-feature, but neither is anything else since there’s no description on f-droid

Look m8 IDC how authoritarian they are, if China wants to see how much brain rot I can get through in an 8 hour period that’s fine, it’s not like they’re an authority over me
In the US, especially for some marginalized groups (trans folks mostly right now) there’s an active push by the govt to make people hate us, I don’t want THAT authority to have any of my fucking data, especially when analysis of my scrolling habits could tell them when I’m most likely home or whatnot.
Given the choice between an authoritarian and an authoritarian, I’ll take the authoritarian who can’t exert power over me thanks

Open it up and replace it with a resistor, can’t blink if it doesn’t exist.
- Comment on Which one are you? 3 months ago:
If the instructions give me any nonsense I just do the math and use the power level function.
I bought a microwave to make my life easier, I’ll be damned if I’m gonna flip food over because someone doesn’t understand how to write instructions involving the power level button
