Never played it.

I’d say based on his last 3 songs he is now fully political. I mean we’ll see what he does next, but Hind’s Hall 1 and 2, and Fucked Up are all super political and powerful songs.

I’m too old to say what anything this generation is, but look up “fucked up” by Macklemore. Came out at the start of the year and it’s the most rage against the machine esque thing I’ve heard in years. Got me riled up.

Edit: I see you literally called him out in the post, so this is old news to you I’m sure. I’ll leave it for others to find!

Is there much depth to that? I’ve found in the past they keep adding new systems, and each new one has exactly the same issue of being another thing that’s not super deep. And by deep I mean full of surprises and things to learn, not you can technically do it for a long time.

I’ve tried to get into it periodically. I like aspects of it, but it’s also very bland in some ways I find. Like there are infinite cool planets to discover, but the resources are more or less the same on each and across the whole thing. There’s so much to see, but so little meat on the bones I guess?

I need a bit more pulling me forward than what that game gives you I think. The phrase “wide as an ocean, shallow as a puddle” has been my experience with it unfortunately. I know a lot of people like it these days, though.

GTA. I’m a SciFi and fantasy guy so it just doesn’t do anything for me.

So in my opinion ai gen images are basically the opposite experience of looking at good art.

A good piece of art has loads of details and nuances that came from the artist’s taste and vision. The longer you look at it the more there is to appreciate. You keep finding new details you missed as you study it.

Ai gens are the opposite. They look fine and competent at a cursory glance, but the longer you look the less meaning you find, and the more defects you discover. Personally I believe this is why they feel so wrong to look at for any length of time.

I’m from this area originally, and photos of new Zealand always look kind of like home 🙂

I’ve always taken it to imply that at a certain number of differences, the comparison isn’t useful anymore, not that there are no avenues of comparison at all.

I’m of the same opinion that AI won’t be able to adequately replace many jobs, but only in the long term. In the short term I think it’s going to be a bit of a bloodbath with a lot of companies drinking the kool aid until they realize it’s not working.

So that’s the craziest part. I actually think it would easily slide in, and then lock. See the way the space is weirdly perfect for it?

I tried it but I think the back of the part that the tab is in goes too far towards the sides. It seems pretty impossible to remove without breaking it.

I think I’m going to have to glue it in place. I was hoping to get it out because I didn’t want to get glue on the side of fridge where the crack touches. It’s pretty flush to the side right now. It’s also going to be tough to keep the crack compressed while the glue dries without just holding it in place with the fridge wide open. If you have any suggestions for that let me know. I’m pretty new to this kind of stuff.

I just tried that and it doesn’t seem like it. It’s hard to see in the picture but there’s plastic on the back of the part going around the tab, and it goes so far towards the side I’m not actually sure if bending it would work. I think it might break before it bent enough. 🫤

Oh wow that sounds like it might explain things then. It’s a long story but there’s a lot of partially finished but kinda botched stuff in this house so I guess add this to the list

Oh damn, that’s very interesting to hear. I avoided watching it so thanks for taking one for the team and reporting back.

What about the military parade shows disdain? Doesn’t it happening at all show support?

I don’t know enough to be able to extrapolate anything from it, but sounds like there’s a lot to unpack for those like you who can.

I’m from Washington and I’m surprised we’re not higher. In the winter it’s dark during both morning and evening rush hour, meaning most people are doing their commutes in the dark. It can feel pretty dangerous sometimes.

Maybe I’m wrong, but I would imagine tons of bot accounts being spun up just to wait for a bit would also be suspicious, right? But in that case they could be pruned before they did anything. I’m not a moderator, so don’t take anything I say as fact.

I think account age would be more useful than karma. Karma is just a game-able system, but I could see a very short age requirement being useful eventually if a lot of spam starts to happen. I don’t think we’re there yet, though.
