  Posts like this are proof positive of Dead Internet Theory, because surely no human could be this oblivious to an obvious joke

  Aside from all the other issues surrounding it, every demo I’ve seen so far is creepy uncanny valley stuff that I found unsettling and wouldn’t want to be playing.

  He cuts filming just as people are moving out of the way for the ambulance.

  You do realize you’ve proved his point? In Europe there’d be no “just as they are moving”, the cars would have already moved by the time the ambulance reached them.

  Either they’re all ironic [] or none of them are ironic

  Textbook false dichotomy, and not how I read it at all. Setup->Punchline is the most basic joke format in existence.

  …and, without any sense of introspection whatsoever, continuing to miss the point…

  “Is it possible I’ve completely missed the point? No, it must be everybody else here who’s wrong!”

  As long as the clerk hasn’t seen Guys and Dolls it should be fine.

  One of these days in your travels, a guy is going to show you a brand-new deck of cards on which the seal is not yet broken. Then this guy is going to offer to bet you that he can make the jack of spades jump out of this brand-new deck of cards and squirt cider in your ear. But, son, do not accept this bet, because as sure as you stand there, you’re going to wind up with an ear full of cider.

  A significant part of Jesus’ teachings is “don’t claim to speak on behalf of God”. Whoever made this meme is a blasphemer.

  I also thought this was a joke until I read the comments. Pistachios have always been pistachio coloured in the rest of the world.

  There’s something very American about drowning a perfectly healthy natural product in brightly coloured dye.

  military ufos

  So, not aliens then.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨This MF is quadrupling down and dropping Alien files before dropping the full, unredacted Epstein Files. GODDAMN.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The sightings stopped happening round about exactly the same time as everyone started carrying a video camera in their pocket.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨This MF is quadrupling down and dropping Alien files before dropping the full, unredacted Epstein Files. GODDAMN.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Is it me or are people just not that bothered about aliens, compared to in the 90s?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨This MF is quadrupling down and dropping Alien files before dropping the full, unredacted Epstein Files. GODDAMN.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Most old UFO sightings were in areas that are now known to be places where drone technology was being developed and tested.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨it keeps getting momentum⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The sad thing is that when it bursts it won’t do it in a hilarious “billionaires all get shafted” way like it didn’t any of the previous times. It’s far more likely to take the form of the most powerful AIs suddenly only being accessible to the wealthy.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hopefully, he will be 6 underground by that time.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  LOL, the sole one single point I made in my post is that I only ever see assertions without evidence, and your response is a bit of handwaving and an ad hominem. Thanks for demonstrating my point so perfectly.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hopefully, he will be 6 underground by that time.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Literally anything other than bad faith conspiracy-theory assertions, please.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hopefully, he will be 6 underground by that time.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  They’re accelrrationist who want conditions to get so bad that their ideas actually seem good.

  I’ve seen this claim made a few times before, and it’s never accompanied by a shred of evidence.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Uhhhh sure?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m willing to bet that sometime between last year and now, an LLM got involved.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨One of the most interesting things that happens when you are old⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Does it count if it was 2020 and the person is also your age? I feel like a LOT of people have a weirdly revisionist memory of the first few months of the pandemic.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨One of the most interesting things that happens when you are old⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Haven’t had that yet, but having travelled a lot I find it jarring how many other countries seem to think that Thatcher was a great leader to look up to, and not a dreadful callous nightmare who sold the country out on multiple levels to create the illusion of prosperity, and even that only for the sort of people that voted for her.

  Ok but that photo of a building you posted could just as easily have been taken in any British town in the 1980s

  He’s the one that begins with an “S”.

  It’s not so much that it’s ChatGPT in of itself, as it’s ChatGPT and therefore, as per usual, sounds superficially clever until you actually read it and realize it’s meaningless nonsense.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨it's true⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I read it as criticising reductionist views of the many diverse nations that existed in North America before Europeans showed up and decided that the whole continent was Terra Nullius.

  To this day a significant number of US high school American History textbooks only discuss the tribes in terms of their interactions with European invaders, and shy away from anything that might make them look like they were ever legitimate nations. Referring to them as ‘Native Americans’ instead of by name also has this effect.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Top of the world, ma⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I find people who keep making cracks like that far more tedious, unoriginal and unpleasant than any of the groups you just listed.

  Likewise Singapore is mostly immigrants. This guy is wrong by such a huge degree that I don’t think it’s even a mistake, I think he knows he lying.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Yet everyone swears they existed⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I think they’re exactly what their username implies.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Draw!⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  You can take it literally at face value. They want to know about you, so they asked. The idea that an interviewer would conclude that “renovated my house” is a wrong answer that get you blacklisted, is something that person seems to have just decided for themselves.
