When they’re both Christians, Jesus just picks his favorite. If you lose you know that you’re not jesus’s favorite. Sorry that’s just the way it is. Loser.

Yeah. That was my point.

That’s ok this is a LIVE SERVICE GAME. Definitely not the same as an MMO. Definitely.

Also I bought that Brutosaur and a friggin love it. Best QOL feature in the game. I don’t even play WoW more than a few times a month.

I now have all services in the game mobile in some way or another: bank, transmog, mail and auction

Eh you’re right of course. Like I said below. Search engines have become useless anyway…

Very true. I don’t disagree at all. I think once google finally becomes totally useless. It won’t matter.

I mean Google is already just Yellow Pages AdWords edition with AI content

Yeah the article stub doesn’t link to the article. It links to a login flow with the article id. If you go directly to the article you get redirected if you don’t have a session.

It’s incredibly easy to make an impossible to get around paywall. Porn has done it since the Internet existed.

In this very particular situation I’m glad most companies are lazy and stupid.

I don’t particularly care if a company does pay only content. I think its legitimately ok. I hate companies that don’t make you pay enough for the service to cover their costs thus leading to complete enshitifaction.

This is the most confidentially incorrect thing I’ve seen in a while. Talk to a real climate scientist. Like a real one. They’re easy to find. They’re all (unfortunately) all over Twitter. Ask 3. Ask 10. You are going to be really sad after… But you’ll be educated. Or not. Up to you.

Like an angler fish; That sign draws in the curious and unaware.

Nah, just AI trained in their art style

I think we need to actively work to deprogram their private police force people. The way to get them is to be on the inside.

All religious and cultural holidays are just co-opted versions of some previous culture.

In this case “pagan”->“Christian”->“Corporate Capitalism”

It sucks but that shit is forever in the past.

Cheaper this way. Clearly you don’t business. /s

We are also born unable to care for ourselves. Or speak. Or…

Same. Or Shortcut. They both are good at being useful but not being your fucking LIFE. Do the important bit and go away.

JIRA is a middle management job creation tool. Which is why it’s everywhere

Free range porn… caged or not, depending on preference

Ad and sponsorblock integration is sweet too

Developed by Quakers as a protest against capitalism. But like everything capitalism fucked that up too

Especially, and this is important, every SINGLE media company owner.

He is their golden goose for content and their dream of an oligarchic future

Incredibly probable

I think reasonable people know it won’t work like that and ultimately you can’t make this stuff without humans.

The real answer is remembering that ALL of this stuff, even the farms full of AI running Nvidia cards are RUN BY HUMANS.

The “means of production” (I’m sure that won’t piss brigaders off) is still controllable by the masses.

Like wake the fuck up. Either you sleep walk into a few decades long mess of boring LLM stuff and destroyed commercial art. Or you form unions at every level.

Right from the power company that cuts power to poor areas to power server farms or the developers at EA writing the pipelines for LLM training.

Every single group needs to say no or stop or whatever.

It’s totally possible. Anyone that tells you differently is stealing from you and destroying your future.

Anyone one of you reading this that could get affected by this (can’t think of anyone who isn’t honestly) needs to stop and take 20 mins to find something to do about it, or you’re just complicit by inaction. (And in my mind a shitty person)
