- Comment on Satan Was The Good Guy This Whole Time? 1 week ago:
what part is untrue? That god said eating the fruit would certainly kill them and the serpent said it wasn’t true and they eaten and didn’t die and instead gained knowledge? The part that god killed a third of humanity in one go and then tortured the rest? Or that those Isaiah verses are about the king of Babylon? Is it really me that should read again?
- Comment on Satan Was The Good Guy This Whole Time? 1 week ago:
That’s medieval fanfic built over badly translated old testament passages that are talking about local kings and it’s literally in the previous and next passages that they weren’t talking about any angel… the only thing about being cast out is in Revelations after a war in heaven, that is said the dragon is the same as the serpent, the serpent that told humans that god lied that the fruit would kill them but instead would give us knowledge of good and evil, so literally pushed us towards developing philosophy and sciences, and that war is narrated just after god wipes a third of humanity in one go and send plagues and beetles that sting like scorpions and that for months humanity would look for death and not find it and good were the mothers who smashed their babies against the rocks etc etc etc, that’s what the dragon rose up against

- Comment on Why does all AI graphic design have the exact same style? 1 month ago:
if you are just doing a photo composing or a design, I guess “remove background” “remove watermark” hehe
- Comment on Why does all AI graphic design have the exact same style? 1 month ago:
That’s actually because people doing AI art aren’t artists, they have absolute no artistic vision and most probably lack basic art knowledge, and the very reason they are doing AI art is because they are mediocre. Their prompts are “give me [actor] doing [action] in [location]” and that’s it, they don’t talk about style influence, color palette, scene composition, etc etc, so it all comes out the same.
- Comment on 'A first for Christopher Nolan': Memento is finally getting a 4K Blu-ray — and it a surprising twist, it has director-approved Dolby Vision HDR 1 month ago:
He’s a super mainstream director with huge budgets. It’s superhero fans who made him famous, movie nerds like him up to Memento (his first movie lol) - Insomnia is not bad but a real movie nerd watched the original and knows Nolan butchered it by inserting American moralism (making main character tragic and sympathetic because American audiences are driven by emotion and must empathize with the main character).

thx, that’s interesting (but looks like it misses a lot of my activity, 51 Posts 596 Comments)
- Comment on Why are lemmings so touchy about downvotes? 1 month ago:
it’s lemvotes.org (thanks dohpaz42 @lemmy.world)
haha, yeah, perhaps browsing by New instead of Hot might be responsible for amount of downvotes :P
- Comment on Why are lemmings so touchy about downvotes? 1 month ago:
Nope. I want to see how often I upvote and downvote stuff (to see “how grumpy I have become”), it would be an immense pain in the ass to check random users individually to see who might have downvoted or upvoted something I said, and I’d be dead before I cared about what a random person on the internet thinks of me anyway

I mean, I always see on lemmy.dbzer0.com/c/yepowertrippinbastards people that got banned because they downvoted posts.

LLM translation is waaaay more advanced than machine translation.
My fear is that they will stop machine translation because it has been so outclassed.
My special case is that running it locally is very resource consuming (unlike machine translation). - Submitted 3 months ago to [deleted] | 6 comments
- Comment on Nine out of ten bestselling novels in UK have one thing in common: a woman is murdered 3 months ago:
Be sincere, what are the chances for you to empathize with the victim if it was a regular average mundane dude? Imagine the detective bursting out, “Damn you! He was a working man! He liked watching soccer!”
People will hardly empathize with the death of a random man. You’d need to make him an important character. - Comment on Where did the conspiracy theory that America was behind 9/11? Was there any evidence to back up these claims (real evidence)? 3 months ago:

- Comment on With a lot of companies no longer doing physical games, then would that give rise to more Piracy? How will video game preservation work then? 3 months ago:
“What gets lost is the servers for online functionality an such.” nope, not at all, modern game preservation is a legal challenge because shareholder would rather have them destroyed forever when it’s not profitable than breaking DRM protection, opening the source code, or simply allowing the data to be saved by third parties.

The only legal way for game preservation is buying exclusively DRM-free games, if they sell DRM-free games the selling physical copies doesn’t matter (you can make your copies at home, save at another HDD, a flash drive, upload to a cloud service you subscribe, or burn to a CD/DVD/Bluray, you own that copy and do whatever you want with it)
I always see gamers praising Steam as if it ever sold physical games and it wasn’t also only renting games, maybe they are dying to give Gabe a sloppy, but can they trust the investors that are going to run the company after him? Steam is part of the same problem.
As for non-DRM-free games, since they are not really selling the game and just giving a license they can revoke whenever they feel like, the moral thing to do is pirate it.
- Comment on AI banners: what owner sees vs what I see 4 months ago:
Even though I follow the community, I cringe so hard at the icon and the banner… how hard it would have been to find a real art from a real controller and make a mosaic with real game covers instead of that nonsensical whatever-crap sh.itjust.works/c/games

- Comment on Part of internet most harmful to teens? 5 months ago:
Not to mention the endless barrage of short videos is destroying people’s attention span and ability to think - there isn’t even time to reflect on the content, you just “react” and move on. AI is probably creating a huge negative impact on learning capability too.
