Growing up, I was of the mindset that I would have gotten married and started a family by this point in my life. But as of the last few years, my thoughts have done just about a 180.
Even if I was currently with someone/married, I’m pretty sure I wouldn’t want to raise kids in this day and age in the US (the bullet dodged me when my ex-girlfriend used plan b after we got intimate without protection). I think best case scenario for me now would be DINK, but gotta find someone that can put up with my dumpster fires first.

But yeah, foreplay helps and sex doesn’t have to be /just/ intercourse, and communicating your wants and needs with your partner (& vice versa) is key.

Now it will be PCs spread out in addition to large data centers in combo that will be consuming energy.
And I do remember that phase of game/device streaming! I was a bit skeptical of it all and ended up never using those technologies but that did allow me to learn about alternatives like Moonlight/Sunshine.

Ahh was wondering where the factor of 1000 came from.
Without turning into a complete shootout, I can kind of see the point with comparing energy usage, but as others have said with these massive data centers it like comparing two similar but ultimately different kinds of beasts.
As stated by others, beyond just the energy used in training of generative AI models in data centers, there’s also the energy it needs to fulfill requests once implemented (24/7, thousands of prompts per second).

Semi non sequitur argument aside, your math seems to be off.
I double checked my quick phone calculations and using figures provided, Rockstar games with their office space energy use is roughly 18,000,000 (18 million) kWh, not 18,000,000,000 (18 billion).

What? Elon Musk’s xAI data center in Tennessee (when fully expanded & operational) will need 2 GW of energy.

It was definitely in agreement. There are way better uses for our resources, people, and talent than on things like AI. That’s not to say that no one should have a tech job in AI, but the overwhelming push to expand and adopt it is insane.

Yes, it’s totally okay starve millions of homes of water and jack up their utility bills to be able to summarize articles and write emails. (/s)

Yeah I don’t get how he was taken so seriously for so long by so many. I get that not every rapper needs to come from a broken and messed up background, but his verses don’t hit that hard due to all the inauthenticity, as if he did grow up on hard streets lol.

It’s a small thing but I appreciate how you didn’t use the image of the rapper of the original meme who seems like an overall terrible person.

If a person were to have been the direct cause of someone’s death, “the law” has a fit.
But companies and corporations are overlooked and excused when they kill people.

Jordanlund’s comment could be read/interpreted that way sure, but personally I read it more as “yes gta is a big/popular/genre-defining game, but not my cup of tea” kind of vibe.
I have played and enjoyed previous gta titles, but I myself am partial to slower more thoughtful games like Baldur’s Gate (I suspect same could be said for jordanlund as well).
- Comment on Now that's an interesting question 5 months ago:
I wouldn’t mind that at all lol has a nice ring to it. But I would feel insulted if I don’t get treated well in a city where I’m a saint.
