Oh, I hated divinity, but BG3 is one of the best games there is. I hope you can trust my review, because I’m sad thinking of you missing it.

I just hate the terrain effects of 2. Oops, the ground is all cursed, electrified water. I hope they do away with that.

They are generating the training data. This is a manual task. It’s what google has been having us do in the captchas for years. This is a non-article.

That’s a bad take. Look at PC prices. What equivalent PC could you build for $1000? This is going to be 800+ and still the best value in the PC market. Until they get steam OS on arm and you can put it in a 600 Mac mini.

What do you mean by that first sentence?
- Comment on She is making a GREAT point 1 month ago:
This is just logically wrong.
If birth control was only made for men, and 90% of men were on birth control, you could end up with far more pregnancies than if it’s for women and 90% of women were on it.
The conclusion is exactly the opposite of the argument.

- Comment on ‘Death to Spotify’: the DIY movement to get artists and fans to quit the music app 2 months ago:
I think that’s the point of all this. It’s currently way too cheap for the consumers. Adjusted for inflation from the 80s, an album would cost over $30 today. Each album. To get infinite music for $10 a month, yeah the artists are getting screwed.

It’s the one right after the disorder that is allowing yourself to be advertised to. Chumpism I think it’s called.

Of course he lost. The filing of the lawsuit itself proves Kendrick correct. The irony, it was a self defeating lawsuit.

- Comment on What even is money at this point 2 months ago:
Amazon is far more efficient. The store has to move the thing there, put it on a shelf. Keep the lights on. Keep the store clean and staffed.
Amazon uses algorithms to distribute a few of those items to some mega wearhouse near you. It gets picked up by someone also picking up a dozen other things. And the cost of delivery is not the whole distance, your cost is just the last delivery location to yours, and those routes are plotted algorithmically to be as effecient as possible.
You driving to the store burning that much gas and wearing your tires the whole round trip, just for the one thing makes it further inefficient.
Stores literally only make sense if you want to try the thing out, for fresh local food, or for a bulk trip like Costco, where its more of a wearhouse than a store, and you pack you car so full you’re basically acting as the Amazon delivery driver. That’s why stores like CVS and Walgreens are closing all over, it simply makes no economic sense anymore.

Same with all of Europe and Asia. “You can only eat food from the original neolithic people”. See how stupid you sound.

I’m not sure that’s the rules, in that case you can get anything from America.
- Comment on Dinner is ready! 2 months ago:
There’s also some Morocco, Spain and Portugal in there.
I mostly agree, on American Southern and Mexican alone.
D is tempting though, I love all Asian food. The variety from Middle Eastern, Indian, Vietnamese, Thai, Chinese, Japanese and Korean. I might have just convinced myself to go D while I was writing this actually…

You realize nobody is making you play the game?
- Comment on Hollow Knight: Silksong Sparks Debate About Difficulty and Boss Runbacks 3 months ago:
If it’s not challenging, why are you complaining?
- Comment on Hollow Knight: Silksong Sparks Debate About Difficulty and Boss Runbacks 3 months ago:
Because if you can’t make it through the denizens, you can’t make it through the boss. It’s a filter.
- Comment on Hollow Knight: Silksong Sparks Debate About Difficulty and Boss Runbacks 3 months ago:
Why? If you can’t get through that, you aren’t going to beat the boss.
- Comment on Hollow Knight: Silksong Sparks Debate About Difficulty and Boss Runbacks 3 months ago:
Hot take here, but I don’t mind them. Exactly because they take focus. They tell me when it’s time for a break. If I’m not up for the runback, then I’m not up for aother attempt at the boss.
