Carbon based. Not overly precocious.

  • This is easily in the top ten opening themes of all time.

  • Commenting on the report, Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov said Wednesday that the research could not be considered "reliable information" and that only Russia's Ministry of Defence was authorized to provide information on military losses.

    Provide the accurate information then.

    Go on then. Put lipstick on that pig.

  • I wonder how he'd respond to getting swarmed, kidnapped, flown across the Atlantic, and dumped off at the Hague.

  • Even if he slips into severe dementia, his bribe-seeking reflex will remain intact.

  • Too fucked up and corrupt for Sepp Blatter.

    For Sepp Blatter.

  • Cool. Maybe they can get some ai bots to subscribe.

  • Good.

  • Tell me more, Slop Boy.

  • Going to be?

    As in, start being nazis?

  • NVIDIA (We're not like Enron) CEO says relentless negativity around AI is hurting society and has "done a lot of damage"

  • Nvidia (which is totally not at all like Enron) CEO Jensen Huang says AI doomerism has 'done a lot of damage' and is 'not helpful to society'

  • Or, Republicans are fucking stupid.

  • Yup.

    That's why the brand needs to die, even if Elon gets struck by lightning.

    That whole board is a blight on humanity.

  • This is typically followed by the board at Tesla fighting to pay Elon hundreds of billions of dollars.

  • This is beautiful.

  • I'm just trying to explain to you that YOU might do your thing, but YOU do not sway the industry.I've known and understood the dangers of dark practices, yet those companies were rewarded regardless of me not buying into them and warning others.All I'm saying is that you and I represent an insignificant minority of money in gaming, and if the majority won't shop for PC hardware, that will cease to be sold. Completely. You and I will not change that.

    Like I said, I understand your Resistance is Futile story. As a separate topic for self-exploration, you might want to reflect on the outcome you're actually trying to achieve, and why you're going all-out to explain that being defiant in the face of the unacceptable is pointless.

    Anyhow, since all of that nonsense sucks ass, I will continue contributing zero dollars, and zero cents to non-essential industries that sell shit that i don't want, at price points and with subscription schemes that I didn't ask for.

    The other example that I set, is not striving to be the bucket of ice water dumped on other people's refusal to bend the knee.

    In the simplest of terms, I'm advocating for fighting for your life when attacked, and you're suggesting that you may as well do nothing when attacked, unless you know you will win.

  • I'm telling you that we are in a minority.And that unless we can convince at least 50% of gamers to not buy into that, we lost.EA should have been bankrupt twenty times over, but people keep buying their games.Same as with everything.I keep fighting, but this fight has been lost since the start.

    I understand your thesis, but am offering mine as a wholesale replacement instead of a rebuttal:

    1. The entire gaming industry produces non-essential goods.
    2. No one video game, nor the entire industry, have a monopoly on entertainment.
    3. I dictate what products and services I want, the video game industry does not.
    4. If the industry doesn't produce products that I want, the industry gets zero of my entertainment dollars, or attention.
    5. I can and will spend my entertainment dollars elsewhere, and have experienced zero stress as a result.

    Why "fight" an industry that needs you more than you need it? They cannot stop me from disregarding them, which certainly makes getting money out of me a challenge.

    I cannot stress enough how much of a Them problem this actually is.

    If a real AGI owned a content creation business of any sort, it would crush human run studios by understanding the market, by insisting on human talent for all creative aspects of the content.

    Americans have been trained to hate foreigners by Fox News, which is owned by a foreigner.

    Prince Andrew must be seething that Donald Trump gets to chug along like nothing happened.

    Employees at Palantir probably don't like the idea of having their personal data harvested. But they are quite enthusiastic about collecting yours.

    Donald Trump is going to make the troops at his birthday parade swear an oath of fealty to him during the event.

    When a person follows you and watches your every move, it's called stalking. When companies like Meta do it, it's just called collecting user data.

    What should we be buying online from your province or territory?

    In the digital age, it's going to be harder for ICE agents to hide their identities than it was for Nazis trying to evade justice post WW2.
