  • I would generally agree but PoE is brutal and early game involves dying a lot. The fact that he thought dying was a problem is a WAY bigger tell that he's never played the game. Dying POE is like dying in a souls game, it shouldn't phase you in the least.

  • But have we learned from our mistakes? No.

  • Oh RED IN THE FACE mad when you say this shit outloud in the US, we don't have this prison system because of back deal profiteering, we have this prison system because it's DEEPLY held cultural beliefs that any crime can and should be met with draconian punishments and that prison should be a torture device.

  • Death penalty is wrong. Also vengeance prison is wrong, VERY unpopular opinions. I can't tell you how many people will full on yell at you if you say this in public. I think rehab prison is what should happen for any prisoner that isn't in for murder one or rape, domestic abuse. Financial crimes? House arrest, monitored assets, no access to exploitable systems. Property crime? Make sure they have a legitimate job, parole, house arrest if serious, garnished wages. We could have the vast majority of prisoners on parole or house arrest and in treatment, or jobs programs and out prison population would be at a normal percentage compared to the rest of the world.

  • AI will never surprise you.

  • I'm banned on enough accounts they auto ban me when I make new ones. I went off the rails on a lot of political topics. I never threatened anyone, but I did wish them unspecified harms, use the words of naughtiness, and made myself a target of a few pro Trump mods and that was it. Anyway, I'm fine here, I also didn't start using this until years after the ban so, not very related.

  • You don't understand, your honor, I know I was gonna say something that would make them threaten my life! I had to start shooting.

  • You think it's OK because it spits out grammatically correct language on your end, but if you spoke both languages you'd get how it fails. Look at translations of Korean comics if you'd like to see how badly mechanical translation is when it's a connected story across multiple chapters, I was reading a comic where a character said he liked the elegant and sophisticated sound of calling a lightning strike skill ''bolt'' instead of whatever he was calling it ''lighting strike'' I think. It took me a while to realize what or whoever translated it didn't know how to look at the context of the translation and find a English word that English speakers would find at least old fashioned if not archaic and of course longer or more poetic sounding. It's like the whole thing when JRPGs can't figure out if they should localize names by just spelling out the phonetic sounds in Roman letters or actually translating the meaning of the name, or a thing no one's ever done and find a name in a European language family that has the same meaning.

    Just like the AI art, it's not replacing good translation, it's replacing hack job translations, it's replacing mediocre and predictable art. I really don't care if someone uses AI in the pre-production or some post production functions, just not the part you need a human for, the actual creativity, there's an adage in 3D animation ''it you let the computer do it, it's gonna suck.'' You can let the computer do inbetweens, but you better be giving it nothing near a key frame. It has to really be the very least important frames.

  • Oh man is translation not possible with AI. You have no idea how little languages have in common. A lot of terms don't mean a thing, but combine concepts you don't have or associate to point at a thing.

    My dad said, about learning a new language, ''cat means cat, not gato, don't translate'' and I think that holds up pretty well from my experience.

  • If people understood how the stock market worked they wouldn't be dumb enough to vote for Trump.

  • There's no splitting the fascists, they are in it to the bitter end. Getting everyone else to defeat their 20%-30% at best of the population is the only move.

  • I worked in customer service a long time. No one was trained on how to be law enforcement and no one was paid enough to be entrusted with public safety beyond the common sense everyday people have about these things. I reported every instance of child abuse I've seen, and that's maybe 4 times in two decades. I have no problem with training and reporting, but you have to accept that the service staff aren't going to police hotels.

  • They mean mantis shrimp... this non technical language bothers me so much...

  • Searching ''eye drop blindness'' is a whole ton of scary bullshit, you'd think it was an issue 30+ years old, no this is a RIGHT NOW issue. Holy shit.

  • A lot of people don't get how to parse statistical data, 67% of all votes isn't out of 100% of people is out of voter turn out, voter turn out isn't a % if all people is a % of registered voters, registered voters is out of eligible voters. So take 100% of the pop, minus those that can't legally vote, minus unregistered voters, minus registered who didn't vote, Then 67% of that number, which is going to be no where near 67% of the population at all.

    So they apparently had 53% turn out of 2.4 million register voters, which is 1.27 million, out of a state population total of 4 million, which is 31% of the total pop. So 850,900 people voted for Trump a whopping 21.27% of the states total pop.

    So not ALL by any stretch, and they had the worst registered voter turn out in the nation according to the reporting I'm seeing.

    Also for no reason 18% of registered voters is 432,000 people, 10.57% of total pop, that's the number of people you'd have to swing to have flipped the state

  • They still think he's going to hunt down and stop all the Democrat run baby sex trafficking pizza kitchens.

  • Kirk probably would have laughed and told him ''take it easy Jeff this isn't the Acadamy''

  • Yeah. I googled something and got straight up unhinged madness as a result. Wish I could remember what it was. But I googled the info and found a ancient internet page that mentioned the subject then disappeared into the void between logic and fruitful imagination.

  • As an artist I'm conflicted. I like new technology and methods and mediums, but it's entirely unethical to make models on unconsenting artists with no compensation or recognition.
