If its the first link on google, I usually just give them the lmgtfy link to make it clear that they are being lazy.

How so? I dont think this is AI, nor is your comment bringing anything even if it was.
- Comment on Least anticipated game in history 5 days ago:
So we’re normalising AI-made memes now,eh?
I’m just here for a laugh, dont care how its made but this is probably not AI. Shame to see you spread hate and then hit an actual artist with it.

It’s not premature ejaculation, my partner is just really good at helping. Its always my fault though.

It seems like harder work then most of what I have done tbh.
- Comment on Star Wars' Showcase of AI Special Effects Was a Complete Disaster 1 week ago:
Every two weeks, theres a new generative AI game changer that pops out. There is nothing pointing towards hitting a plateau.
LLMs haven’t seen any significant improvement in a couple years.
Chat gpt 3.5, which started the whole craze, came out less then 2.5 years ago. There has been a mountain of improvements since then.
Likewise, there has been monumental steps for all generative services. That long valley for video gen is just a stroll away now.
The futur is hard to predict but everything points away from a plateau. AGI might be far but not animators making extensive use of AI tools for example.
- Comment on Star Wars' Showcase of AI Special Effects Was a Complete Disaster 1 week ago:
In other words, exactly the kind of video AI can deliver at a consumer level.
It can do much more. This was literally someone that typed “owl slug” into the prompt.
But AI can’t do that.
Character replacement and lip synching can currently be done. Its not perfect but its advancing very fast.
Your points are valid and all but AI can do a lot, and can do more every month. It’s already pretty versatile and this is currently the worse it is going to be.
- Comment on Regularly 1 week ago:
I like making fun little image while I’m doing chores. There’s also some shading and the facial expression, this is above the level of most people who arent inclined.
I already have a job and hobbies, Im just trying to make my buddies laugh in the chat. I wont be paying anyone to make me memes either. In terms of ethics, I think making memes is actually the best use of AI.
Sure I could do something way uglier by hand, but it’s literally more effort and I simoly dont want to so there isnt much incentive. I wasnt making memes by hand before if you get what Im saying.
- Comment on Partner has ADD, do I have misophonia? 1 week ago:
Your partner sounds like a complete asshat. They are being disrespectful of your shared space and gaslight and guiltrip you the moment you try to communicate. Childish behavior.
I would find a new situation.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 week ago:
It would be a chore to learn while visiting. Just have your boyfriend drive you around and maybe rent a car for a lobger trip.
I personally find it stressful driving in foreign countries.
- Comment on Why don't these code-writing AIs just output straight up machine code? 1 week ago:
You’re a programmer? Yes, integrating and debugging binary code would be absolutely ridiculous.

I learned how to do this and never went back.

She flew to L.A. three times on her own dime. It’s one thing to waste people time but this goes a bit beyond that imo. Im a big fan of Nathan but ya, this is a bit rough.

Now do Musk and Bezos!!
All billionaire wealth is stolen wealth. All billionaires are bad. If you stopped bootlicking for a second, you would realize defending Gaben is defending the system. The fact that he can legally exploit it to steal from consumers and developers doesn’t absolve him from doing it.

Geo blocking is anti-consumer. It was a 16 million euro fine if I remember well.

Gaben isn’t your friend and probably mocks you during his high seas coke parties.
- Comment on Epic reduce their cut to 0% for the first $1 million in revenue for devs on the Epic Games Store 3 weeks ago:
Steam makes a shit load of money. The server fees are basically a joke and they have 80 employees in the steam division.
The only things that is being invested in is Gabens fleet of mega yatchs, worth an estimated 1 billion, and costing between 75 and 100 million annually to maintain.
Valve has been fined in the EU for anti-consumer practices and received an F from the better business bureau. They are currently in the middle of an other lawsuit.
30% is way too high and it’s a joke to see actual consumers defend it.

Fan fiction isn’t exactly legal. Most companies ignore since take down requests tends to get a lot of pushback from fans.
- Comment on Oblivion Remastered Impressions (and Discussion Thread) 4 weeks ago:
Extra named NPCs was what I was hoping for. I understand why they didn’t because it would of been a huge change and I’m sure some of the fan base would have been very vocal about it.
I would have loved if they shipped it with mod support and maybe a oblivion+ version with official mods built by their teams like added npcs and other extras.
- Comment on Oblivion Remastered Impressions (and Discussion Thread) 4 weeks ago:
I played oblivion when it first came out but I put a lot more hours in to skyrim. I do think they could have improved the game a bit more. I’ve only been in the capital yet but it felt brutally empty, with all the npcs having the same path/walking speed and so few of them.
I think a bit of decorations and a few npcs would have gone a long way. I wished they would have worked on the AI a bit more. Taverns don’t have bards and little ambiance, walking into one is disappointing and ends up with all the npcs in a clump moving at a snails pace because all their walking paths overlap at the same time when they spawn it. It was the same in the original but it’s also 2025.
The waterfront could have really used a bit more shacks. The arena posters just slapped onto walls bother me as well.
Thankfully, I imagine mods will fix all this so I’m optimistic overall.

Sounds like you need to be doing coke instead of weed then. Easy solution.

Making me laugh?
- Comment on floats away in disgust 4 weeks ago:
I googled it and the three comics seem kind of terrible.
Not everyone finds MS Paint to be the most pleasing form to look at in any case. Really, it’s a bit much to see the constant witch hunt, you literally spam your 2 word reply just to start a fight. It’s just calculated negativity and gatekeeping.
I think you are making huge assumptions with the “not caring about the audience” segment.
- Comment on Given how paintball guns work, could you swap paintballs for a waterballs? 1 month ago:
It’s a great way to bring up insurance costs for a dealership.
- Comment on this is not satire this is not satire this is not satire 1 month ago:
There’s probably a bigger impact when you consider how paint and brushes are manufactured and the fact that it’s most likely shipped here from other countries.
It’s also laughable how little actual energy one picture takes to generate.
It’s a non starter when you actual compare it to something physical. It’s like saying sending a normal letter is better for the environment then an email.
- Comment on This is why we have a defense budget 1 month ago:
Bombing civilians really does something to a person. We need to help them, not mock them.
- Comment on This is why we have a defense budget 1 month ago:
All you would be accomplishing is alienating the only group that wouldn’t feel instant disgust when looking at your car.
They don’t even need to realize that it’s all fake generated waifus, only that theirs didn’t make the list.
- Comment on Clothes company cannot "cancel" an order that hasn't shipped, must ship it and do a return. 1 month ago:
When companies start telling you no for simple requests, just tell them they can cancel it or you can get your credit card company to do it.
