  • Yeah, I was under the impression that most deep sea creatures we capture on film are dead a few hours later, either because they were blinded and now easy prey, or that in some cases it's like a massive instant sunburn since they have no natural UV protection.

  • If AI replaces workers, should it also pay taxes?

  • I hate that so much. Being "people" they can essentially "out-compete" actual people in the political process. It's very much "anything you can do I can do better". That's why any solution has to target them directly.

  • ok apparently we do in fact tax tools. And I can see how AI, being on the cloud, might not normally fall under computer equipment or other things that would be taxed, thus needing it to be specifically included in tax law. Fuck me on that one.

    I'll give you that.

    BUT

    I still stand by this being a bandaid to a much larger problem concerning capitalists exploiting the labor of many and not being required to give everyone fair pay/equity. The inequality between the workforce and the ownership class is the problem. Them using AI is just their current tool of oppression, but not their only.

    We need to address the root cause and directly tax the billionaires. And remove stock backed loans or at least realize their gains and tax them whenever they do use them as collateral for a loan. Shouldnt be able to claim unrealized gains and use it for collateral at the same time.

  • This is a moronic take. Do we also tax tools when they make a 4 person job a 1/2 person job? This is just an ass backwards way of approaching the wealth inequality and poor working conditions issues by focusing on a tool instead of the system itself.

  • Especially when it's in response to the recent discussions about how she bots her posts to reach the front page everytime, has arrangements with the mods of the sub to remove any negative comments, tried to sue another sub for making parodies of her comics(and getting mods to ban anyone who mentions that sub in comics), makes ridiculous strawman arguments constantly(like this one), and how she uses her comic as a front for her OnlyFans.

    She's a parasite on the comics community and she's finally starting to be called out for it, which is why you're seeing comics like this to try and get ahead of it. She's just trying to shift the drama to something besides her actions. She's hoping reframe all of her criticisms as just a bunch of maga/incel harassment instead of actually addressing any of it.

  • Probably unpopular, but I don't care what side you're on, if your company is basically a monarchy, you don't deserve to exist. How is this any different than a landlord just collecting rent? You sit there and "own" the company you inhereited while hundreds of other people do your work for you and you profit off of it. And then you don't even give anyone else a chance to run it, only your nepo babies. If your company is just a means to serve your own family and nothing else, it would be better replaced by someone else.

  • Sooo... This is happening on Imgur

    Jump

  • And it all comes full circle

    (For those who don't know, Imgur was invented by a user on reddit sick of the other image hosting sites until it eventually became what it was meant to replace)

  • Honestly, I care a dick load more about Myanmar and enabling genocide than "but think of the children!". That's one of the laziest and most misued calls to action and at this point, I honestly dgaf when I hear it. It's just propaganda at this point.

    Don't be so quick to stereotype us. You're insulting those of use who do pay attention.

  • Scheduling is hard

    Jump

  • Just so you know, this is often referred to as the "Bus Factor", aka "how many employees would need to get hit by a bus for us to suffer a catastrophic loss of knowledge/manpower?" Way too many places have a bus factor of 1, meaning if that single employee isn't available for whatever reason, everything around them grinds to a halt. You usually want that number to be BIG as often as possible.

  • So you get racist af to prove your point? Fuck off twat and stop being a bitch. It's not unreasonable to put money into your hobby. That's what you do. You buy a game here and there, and you upgrade your hardware.

    What you don't do is bitch and moan that you can't keep up when the effort to do so isn't that much and at the end of the day, no one owes you AAA games. Cry harder. It's shit like this that makes gamers look like entitled bitches. You have it vastly better than any other time and you still take most of your time to bitch and moan.

  • A 4TB HDD currently costs more than it did a decade ago.

    What the fuck are you on? That's RAM that's currently skyrocketing because of AI, you dipshit. I just bought a 12 TB HDD for $250. Memory is the cheapest it's ever been and has always been on a downward decline like that. You don't know what you're talking about.

  • Nah, it's just not 1995 anymore. I was around for those times bro. I know what computer tech used to be. I know what it is now. I've seen the progression. And yes, if you only have a 500GB hard drive today, you're the equivalent of someone trying use floppy disks.

    Sucks to be told you fell behind, but guess what, you did! Just like 5 GB used to be enough, then 50, then 100.... Guess what, you want all those fancy videos and cutscenes and graphics? Oh shit, they take space. Omg.

    Sorry you're trying to game in modern times with an Atari, but again, that's a you problem. Maybe get a job and buy an SSD. Seriously, Samsung evo SSD 1tb are $90 right now. You're telling me you can afford $40-70 games, but can't buy a hard drive? Like seriously? You also try to play golf with old pieces of rebar and complain that it doesn't work either?

    Bunch of entitled people bitching that they're owed something. You're a consumer. They don't owe you shit. Don't like it, don't buy it. Vote with your wallets like we tried to tell you decades ago.

  • Cool, wanna go through the list of modern games and see their file sizes? COD is somewhere around 300GB. Anything AAA is usually 80-100gb.

    If all you have is a system capable of playing indie games, don't shit on those of use who actually put effort into our hobby. A 1tb SSD is ~$90. It's not some crazy ask. If you can't do that, fine. But don't drag the rest of us down with you.

  • It was for HDDs, literally helping you people who refuse to advance. It was progress in the sense that it allowed you to play on your outdated system. They could have just told you to fuck off from the get go.

  • It's 2025. If all you have is a 400GB hd, that's a you problem. Sure, that was a big number over a decade ago, but that number is nothing now. Same energy as complaining that it takes too many floppy drives to store your files. Like you think it makes it sound like a huge number when you phrase it as 30% and all it shows is you have an outdated rig and are mad that progress moved on without you.
