Openly. You have accurately described my position, despite your requests that I vacate it. 🥰

Yeah I’m dismissive of it because cultural hegemony matters and that culture is really trashy and founded on delusion. I didn’t ask for commentary. I was trashing fiat culture.

Your handle leads me to believe “Magic the Gathering” or “The Catechism” struck a nerve but search me which… or both?

Just because the imaginary friends are passing fiat around to each other doesn’t make any of it less delusional. You may as well learn such trivia about Magic the Gathering or the Catechism of the Catholic Church.

Lmfao how is there still “yahoo”

capitalism is so braindead

imagine thinking any of this was real

Good, I hope American cinema never recovers. Who cares about nazi culture? Not me.

Who the hell is still spending money on visual media? Why?

It shipped with face swap software

What you want to do is get yourself a Nintendo 3ds

They keep pretending autocorrect bots will replace knowledge work but they still can’t overcome the nature of generative transformers. They’re still just lying.

What we ought to be discussing is what’s to be done with the liars.

beware of americans flapping lips

Mine took a couple tries to set up and I had to switch routers but it was ultimately pretty worthwhile. Came out to maybe $100 for a lot fewer ads.

When my partner plays “mom-core” phone games, the amount of blocked traffic is absolutely bonkers.

Cool I’m going to stop buying their games

If they actually wanted quality documents for people to use, they would be advocating for Standard Ebooks or something.

They just want us to make more training data available to them for free. It’s just more fake AI bubble propaganda.

The best co-op shooter FPS I know of is FEAR 3. The story is pretty bad. There’s these two guys, one is named Pointman and he’s from COD and the other is named Noodles and he’s from Second Sight on PS2. They are scared of their mom, Alman, so they have to break out of jail and find the scientist who held them all hostage. Now that sounds pretty easy, but for some reason The Military and the Demogorgon are really mad at you, and they chase you all 14 blocks through the grocery store and the suburbs to the airport. Its absolutely a blast and both guys have a different move set, as weird as that sounds for co-op FPS.

You haven’t truly tasted victory in your gaming life until you sink Rodan the first time. Downing a big bandit in XCOM comes close, but you won’t get it until you play it.

Take a swing then, don’t come and tell us.

Any time someone in a propaganda article says “use AI or get left behind” I just sorta lean back, look at the state of things. It isn’t even a hopeful grift. Reminds me of false prophets doing tent revivals in the colonies, but they’re not offering heaven, they’re pretending there will be a world left that’s worth being rich in.

The bone tools, which all appear to have been systematically produced in the same style as one another, were found in Tanzania’s Olduvai Gorge. The site is also where archaeologists have previously unearthed artifacts related to some of the first stone tools crafted by early hominins, or human ancestors who walked upright.

Previous discoveries of bone tools have occurred in isolated instances across Europe and Asia, but the 27 bones found at Olduvai Gorge seem to imply mass production, the study authors said. While the bone tool kits found later in Europe, dated to 400,000 years ago, are much more refined, the Olduvai Gorge tools were more effective for heavy-duty tasks, Njau said.

I wonder what they called their hand-chiselly tool.

the number of credulous corpo bootlickers, even on indie social media, is deeply demoralizing

it’s important we just keep practicing the arts and ignore the self-styled consumers

consumer normies don’t really contribute anything to these conversations but i can’t exactly tag a post “don’t bother replying if you believe in capitalism”

I didn’t introduce the analogy so I’m not invested in it. I disagree with your opinions so maybe that’s what you’re reading as hostility.
