Thats somehow less than I thought.
I suppose when you’re rich enough to not have to think about “How will I cover the rent if I dump his ass?” Probably makes the number higher than for regular folks.

This has always been my counterpoint for the Nintendo haters when they complain about price. (Although they are a shit company in several other ways) Because when my daughter wants a new switch game if its a top tier Nintendo title its going to be a finished game with zero bugs and zero concern about problematic content for me.

I mean, this could be what it looks like. It could also be absolutely anything else.

Ive noticed it a lot more on here.
Like there was a thread about real world uses for “A.I” and I said that its perfect for traffic management which triggered someone who went on a huge rant about carcentric cities and how we need to have more public transport and cars arent the answer. Like ok, I dont disagree but thats not really related to the question at all.

Lemmy has a REALLY bad problem with people who dont actually read comments and process them. They skim read the post, see a few keywords and then argue the point that they want to argue regardless of what the original comment was.

If you re-ead the comment that you replied to first that there is a community of people who believe absolute bullshit which you deny in your reply to their comment but then admit they do in mine by refering to them as “extremists”
Doctors not taking health complaints of people who are carrying an excess of adipose tissue is a real thing, but so are people who refuse to accept that their weight is the root cause of many of their issues and do body positivity a disservice when they do
- Comment on doctors 2 weeks ago:
No theres absolutely people who believe that shit. Same as people who believe that Trump has all the answers, Jews are the problem and flat earth. The “fat acceptance”, “body shaming” and “body positivity” movements have legitimate positive roots but have also been co-opted by people who just want their bullshit view to be right.
Take “Healthy at every size” for example. You can have excellent cardiovascular fitness, great bloodwork and your weight isnt the cause of any health maladies but at some point at a certain body fat/muscle ratio (too high or low) is going to start to reduce the probablility of that being the case and people use these edge cases to justify their opinion. Look at Eddie Hall “worlds strongest man” he weighs 355lbs and over 6 foot tall, I havent seen his bloodwork but people will hold him up as an example that you can weigh 350+ but I also bet he doesnt need a scooter to get around wallmart.
There isnt an ideology or behavior on earth that cant be taken to a toxic place.

If I ever have “Fuck you money” Im going to buy the western distribution rights for a bunch of Animes, hire an editor to go through Animes, and edit out the recap of the previous episode, the title sequence, the annoying mid episode break and the next episode preview then smash the whole season into one long movie.
- Comment on skynet would be better than these clowns 2 weeks ago:
The best use case I can think of for “A.I” is an absolute PRIVACY NIGHTMARE (so set that aside for a moment) but I think its the absolute best example.
Traffic and traffic lights. If every set of lights had cameras to track licence plates, cross reference home addresses and travel times for regular trips for literally every vehicle on the road. Variable speed limit signs on major roads and an unbiased “A.I” whose one goal is to make everyones regular trips take as short an amount of time as possible by controlling everything.
If you can make 1,000,000 cars make their trips 5% more efficiently thats like 50,000 cars worth of emisions. Not to mention real world time savings for people.

I’m sure this may work in maybe 1% of circumstances of super fit, tall, jacked, stupidly tough, experienced martial arts experts vs an “Average bear”
Like the theory is sound, you could conceivably choke out a bear but it would be a motherfucking wild ride IF you can get into place to do it.

I do wonder just how much a policy like this would effect Valves bottom line though.
This would be pretty amazing for small studios.
- Comment on is walking away the best way to deal with a work clique? 4 weeks ago:
Fighting back, documenting and contacting the union usually doesnt work the first time but each time theres another incidence of something that could be considered inappropriate behavior the pressure mounts in your favor.
HR is there to protect the company, but once you can show a pattern HR is there to protect the company Once the cost of you potentially suing for them failing in their duty of care to protect you from workplace bullying and harassment is more than the cost of replacing the assholes doing it then they will act.
- Comment on To whom it may concern 4 weeks ago:
A lot of reply paid stuff for large corporations is calculated on weight not on item count, depending on the sorting system used by the country/region in question so this might work sometimes but it depends on a lot of variables.

Friendly reminder.
Make sure that you use a box with no identifying information. Scribbling out the barcodes isnt enough.
Mailing restrictions still apply. Mailing them back rotting fish or potentially hazardous materials is a federal offence.
Mailing any kind of threat is also against the law.

Thats exactly my point, Its now a kind of “premium” activity. It cost one adult and one child who had fast food afterwards $100. If you’re out on a date (not the kind of romantic situation where you want to be smugging in snacks) dinner and a movie is $100 per head if you eat somewhere half nice, that goes for a couple who have a night without the kids too and thats your primary market for these original films aimed at adults.

Fast paced, bright, colorful and simple themes.
Actually a perfect movie for 5.
