“Why don’t you donate that money?”

“Why don’t you?”

Just learned a new word! Gonna find new and exciting ways to use it.

“This lasagna is perfectly scrofulous, darling”

I mean, it’s not cope, I just like 7 and 8. I’m not a huge Star Wars fan, I’m not out to change anyone’s mind, I just liked the movies as a fun adventure with some good themes. I didn’t like 9 because my favorite part of 7 and 8 was the idea that you don’t have to be from some powerful family to be a hero (something that was better executed in Knives Out), but 9 really threw all that away.

If you want to anchor your sub idea to a reddit equivalent for name recognition, look up the selfawarewolves subreddit.

Their criteria is based entirely on whether the person in question gives them a boner. Someone beat it to Mulvaney and now has to convince themselves that she is a “real woman” to sleep at night.

Out of curiosity, what is the practical use of full N-key rollover? I can’t think of many things that require me to press more than maybe five keys at a time.

It’s bullshit too because now they’re named after the bridge guardians which look awesome. Driving past them always makes me feel like I’m being tested by those statues in the Neverending Story.

Part of the problem is that we have relatively little insight into or control over what the machine has actually “learned”. Once it has learned itself into a dead end with bad data, you can’t correct it, only work around it. Your only real shot at a better model is to start over.

When the first models were created, we had a whole internet of “pure” training data made by humans and developers could basically blindly firehose all that content into a model. Additional tuning could be done by seeing what responses humans tended to reject or accept, and what language they used to refine their results. The latter still works, and better heuristics (the criteria that grades the quality of AI output) can be developed, but with how much AI content is out there, they will never have a better training set than what they started with. The whole of the internet now contains the result of every dead end AI has worked itself into with no way to determine what is AI generated on a large scale.

You really should look through the Haus of Decline gallery, dude comes up with the most cursed comics. One of my favorites:

“Michael Obama” jokes were a thing long before conservatives had trans people on their radar. No safety in being cis, or different in any way at all.

I mean we did have to live through the era of popups and really annoying ads. (“Say something!” “Whaaaat?”)

Just wait until you hear about Mosquito Mayhem, the theme park for mosquitoes!

This is exactly the feeling I had when I played Assassin’s Creed and picked up a flag that said “1/100”. That happened multiple times, since there are 400 flags in the game. And what do you get? Absolutely nothing but an achievement.

I hold Mario Odyssey up as a shining example of how to make large optional objectives fun. You don’t really get much of a reward for getting all 999 moons, but at least the vast majority of them have fun puzzles to solve so that it’s actually rewarding to collect them. Contrast this with, say, Korok seeds.

Sync, I’ll be sure to let them know. Thanks!

Weird, I did format it that way but it doesn’t seem to stick on editing

I had someone with a super long scarf play basically the entire second half of the game with me. So fun to find ways to communicate with just the little pulses we had.

!Also absolutely heartbreaking when wet froze together at the end!<

I also played their other game Flower, on the PS3. Probably the only time I’ve enjoyed using motion controls on that system.

Unfortunately, people need to eat

The issue is, though you may make a distinction between “I’m using this slur as an insult and not against its targeted oppressed minority”, bigots make no such distinction. Hearing others use the slur and normalize it emboldens these bigots to use it against vulnerable minorities, backing up to “I didn’t mean it that way” when they get called out. The word’s legacy also tangles with a fair bit of racism, as children of minority races were often labeled “mentally retarded” for poor English skills or just so they could be shuffled out of class after school segregation was ended. It’s just a word, yes, but one with a lot of ugly history in the US at the very least.

Plus, the dislike of the word really isn’t new, it just has more support these days. We have lots of other words to choose from, what’s the harm in avoiding this one?

I think the rub here is that most developers aren’t developing/publishing their own software, but honing their skills on writing proprietary code while also putting food on the table. To that end, a permissively licensed library is better because the company will actually use it and the developer will gain experience with it that they can then use outside of the proprietary environment to contribute to FOSS projects (some of which may well use GPL). If a GPL end user product gets popular enough, it will eventually be able to use all of that gained experience to compete with the propriety alternatives, so I do think the two can work in tandem.
