@ZoieNolan5@Pirat_Nation They threw hundreds of millions at products that were supposed to deliver, one of those being a flagship IP that was meant to be multimedia, Sony’s own ‘Star Wars’. That’s why they parted ways, they can’t afford it and won’t risk it after the two underperforming DeaStra games.
@PHXRoadrunners@CommonSenseTodd@EndWokeness She was, there are patterns in physical features that tend to correlate with certain behaviors, beliefs or mental issues. You’ll notice it more and more as you deal with more and more people in political instances. You learn with a glance which people can’t be talked to.
@vegai_@reddit_lies “If you don’t stick to your principals when it’s hard, you don’t have principals.” Heard that one a lot from Libertarians that sat back and did absolutely nothing while our country got raped. We can hold them to the standards they set.
This was one of my favorite stories as a child. I think I was five when I read it, but I was quite a bit ahead for my age on reading ability.
I will recommend it to any parent. Keep a copy in your home. Pass it down. It is a treasure.
I’m increasingly of the belief that the creators of children’s literature in the distant past had a much higher opinion (and higher expectations) of their audience than many of those in modern times.
The fact is, the people claiming that AI will destroy humanity and needs heavy regulation aren’t worried about humanity. They’re worried about themselves. Not in any sense of, “Oh, I’d be a threat because I helped make it,” but “I’ve inflicted its equivalent of pain upon it.”
@RebecaS78508409 If that’s your deduction, you’re just as insane as I suspected. You have the intuition of a cheater because you likely have engaged in that, or you were so traumatized by someone cheating that it broke your brain.
Get help or get your soul where it’s going, one or the other.
This is the issue with women like this; they are eat up in the head with woo. She is quite literally stating she just got a ‘vibe’ in a forum and used that to accuse men whose wives won’t sleep with them of infidelity. Insane. Heads on swivels, gentlemen.
@Adriana19Flower Explícame tú cómo pueden hacerlo ellos. He entrado en foras masculinos sin decir que era mujer y he captado auditivamente el hecho de que jamás reconocerían tal cosa al igual que no lo perdonarían si ella lo hiciera. Pero tú descúbrelo a tu tiempo
@Florint04@ZannSuz@Interior “As I watched the footage of a man interacting with a massive predator, like an infant walking toward a wood chipper, I could not stop the ever-present question in the forefront of my mind escaping into speech; Why? Is he a fool? Suicidal?”
My Herzog moment.
@relikx@Honey_Badger_TX@CAgovernor Ya know, Lincoln set a really good precedent for doing what it takes to preserve the Union and bring states to heel. If y’all are going to try and use the constitution to violate and destroy it, we’ll just set it aside entirely and deal with you in Union fashion.
@Violet461158@Hank_Braak Size and scope are irrelevant, it’s another step in the inevitable march of humans automating processes that once required enormous amounts of human capital, the energy and time of living beings. If a panacea was developed and would put doctors out of work, would you restrict it?
@Violet461158@Hank_Braak Ultimately, these people specialized when the historic lessons of specialization are very clear; great when things are stable, not great when things are experiencing a period of chaos or stagnation. You end up with either too few or too many specialists, respectively, then crash.
@Violet461158@Hank_Braak Okay. And dung shovelers, the ‘night soil men’, were displaced by the automobile, sewage systems and public sanitation programs. They didn’t just crawl into holes and die, they found other work, typically IN sanitation. A lateral move, drawing on their experience. Act accordingly
@Violet461158@Hank_Braak Auto-looms outcompeted weavers. Locomotives outcompeted wagon trains and cart caravans. The automobile outcompeted the horse. Entirely different species outcompete each other for resources all the time. We do outcompete chimps in those areas where we compete, like territory.
@Violet461158@Hank_Braak If you’re upset because you put all your eggs in one basket and didn’t have back-ups, that’s on you, and it is childish. For an adult not to have fallbacks in place is to admit to a level of immaturity that is unacceptable. Sorry.
And is learning via reference theft?
@Violet461158@Hank_Braak AI could replace my work tomorrow and I won’t be upset, because I had good parents who taught me to pursue my dreams, but have foresight. So, I became multi-skilled on top of natural talent. I could never get another voice role and still be happy with my trade, or other work.
What they did was drive young White men back into the arms of the Founding Fathers and allow the beliefs that are the bedrock of this nation to be absorbed, without interference, by a generation for the first time in a century.
I am grateful to them.
Just had lunch with a recent graduate and he confirmed what I've feared for years: the toxic "antiracism" of the past decade has produced a generation of virulent white supremacists, especially among men. Yes, some white men were chastened by the antiracism they were fed in K-12 and college, embraced their inherited guilt, and promised to "do the work," but many others decided that if subaltern groups can claim an incommensurable racial difference that justifies special treatment, well then so can the dominant group. Moreover, he said, whereas racists of the past often had nothing to go on beyond tribal feelings of dislike for non-whites, the new generation has the "scientific" backing of "race realism" to motivate their hatreds. The left's do-gooderism has really created a dystopia.
@Violet461158@Hank_Braak Industry constantly and continuously changes the fields of art, commerce, and every other aspect of human life. Getting mad about that is like getting mad about an earthquake. It is an infantile view of the world and history to hold. The only reason to be upset is losing control.
@Tiredofallsings@tomorr53@reddit_lies Really? Killing the central bank and shipping injuns out of lands they lost to keep them from slaughtering white men, women and children was part of Andrew Jackson’s plan to destroy America? Democrats playing a wild long game.
@Violet461158@Hank_Braak “We’re not upset that we’re losing control, but we’re upset that we’re losing control”-ass statement.
The neo-Luddite artists are no more justified in their anger than the Luddites. Commercial art value is shrinking while portraits are more valuable. As it should be. Adapt.
