I think the common denominator for all these things are people. People are pretty terrible in large numbers behind anonymity.

Game is BeamNG Drive 👍

That’s actually how I do my Lemmy feed. I have one chance to comment on a thread and if I don’t do it, when the page refreshes I lose it forever.

I’ve learned to accept that there are just some things the universe never wanted me to comment on.

Oh shit, just so happens I’m bald myself so I feel honoured!

Summer was hard on me in my teenage goth years.

Can’t really get many light shades of black.

I always loved this idea. It’s a win-win in that you get dual-use out of the area, and it gives the sheep some shade if it gets too warm 💕

Again remember that freedom of expression is freedom to not be punished by the government for that expression.

Private companies are not concerned with your freedoms.

Not saying I agree with how things are, just saying how it is. Only way to tell a private company to fuck off is to not use them.

Doesn’t need to be “intelligent”, it needs to be fit for purpose, and it clearly is.

The closest comparison you made was to the cyoa book, but that’s only for the part where it gives me options. It has to have the “intelligence” to decipher what I’m asking it and then give me the options.

The fact it can do that faster and more efficiently than a human is exactly what I’d expect from it. Things don’t have to be groundbreaking to be useful.

To be fair, it is useful in some regards.

I’m not a huge fan of Amazon, but last time I had an issue with a parcel it was sorted out insanely fast by the AI assistant on the website.

Within literally 2 minutes I’d had a refund confirmed. No waiting for people to eventually pick up the phone after 40 minutes. No misunderstanding or annoying questions. The moment I pressed send on my message it instantly started formulating a reply.

The truncated version went:

“Hey I meant to get [x] delivery, but it hasn’t arrived. Can I get a refund?”

“Sure, your money will go back into [y] account in a few days. If the parcel turns up in the meantime, you can send it back by dropping it off at [z]”

Done. Absolutely painless.

Never have I been so disappointed to see Till brought up in a conversation about Musk.

Till is infinitely more valuable to the human race than Musk could ever hope to be. 🤘

I loved the idea of Auto Modellista, but sadly couldn’t get into it because I found the races lacking… something…

But I’m also a huge fan of Ridge Racer, so if they can deliver fun RR style racing with the awesome AM style aesthetics, I think I’ll be happy to pick this one up.

If it gives a nice progressive career mode and fast-paced online (or even split screen) multiplayer, that’d be all I need ❤

Imagine having to remove a bunch of shit just so you can use your OS. smh

Luckily, there exists an OS which undermines extreme enshittification. Can’t remember the name, though …

*unzips*

No, don’t stop. Tell me more.

This is literally where Bronies came from 13 years ago

Jesus Christ, that was 13 years ago already 😨

And Japan! Or the Korean peninsula! Or most of Alaska! And Siberia!

I read this in Matt Rose’s voice 💀

I’m still quite happy using weird in a positive light. I feel context is always important for a word. Plenty of words have double meanings depending on context.

Good thing I carry a 20kg bag of salt with me everywhere!
