I’m legit scared of that. Im only in my 30s and my capacity for learning has diminished greatly since I was a child. What if that trajectory continues?

I dont wanna be “too old to learn these newfangled thingamabobs” when we get the next big thing.

Tell me you don’t understand whiskers without telling me you don’t understand whiskers.

Sleep is important to your health, but takes up a lot of time. Plan your balance wisely!

I was never able to utilise “treat others as you wish to be treated” because most people dont take kindly to being tied up and whipped insensible.

not to bring that up

I havent seen much of the debates and campaigns and whatever, but between the rapes, pedophilia, money laundering, Russian ties, an actual rap sheet with like 30some felonies and the dog-eating was there much opportunity?

Im counting on them fucking it up. Im hoping I can ride the groove between “dont want to play 1 because 2 is out” and “dont want to play 2 because it sucks”

In that way I may finally be free of this addiction.

I had to skim that because im at work, but does the article explain exactly how its porn? Like I can see that it is, I know that it is, I just cant work out how.

Theres good reasona for luddite behaviour “they tuk er jerrrbs” style. Theres good reasons for environmental impact. Theres good reasons for fear of privacy, and cyberpunk dystopian overlords forming, and possibly terminators, and anger over theft of intellectual property etc, the fact that you didnt ask for it and its happening to you anyway, the effect its having on the hardware market for home computers/gaming, the fact that its not actually reliable yet.

Theres a lot going on in that space.

You’re right though its pretty incredible, and im still impressed by it, but I dont want to use it because i know it’ll be wrong a lot of the time. The only thing I’d want to use it for is to help me with things I dont know, and in that space I dont know that its doing it wrong. Either I blindly trust it and removed up my project, or I research everything myself as well to make sure its right and at that point why bother?

Im coming at it conceptually rather than a place of actual industry knowledge, but games of yesteryear were incredibly clever, pulling off all sorts of crafty hacky bullshit to get their games looking good on pretty low-end basic gear.

I’m not sure if that sort of thing is feasible or possible today, but I’m hoping it’ll push some of the bigger brains to find out. Necessity is the mother of invention and all that.

I didnt yet. When I left home i was too poor together any real ingredients, and lived off whatever the supermarket was selling for “about to throw it away” prices. Usually cakes and bread, remade sandwiches and whatever. Now that I’m in a real family again the other members are all super picky and only eat about 5 meals, so theres no room for trial/error to learn, and most staple ingredients are blacklisted anyway.

Different parents have different sensibilities i guess, and different books have different contexts. I’m not very well read in this field at all, but at the beginning of one of the Tiffany Aching series of Discworld books, a subseries wrote specifically for young adults, a 13 year old side character gets beaten by her drunken father into a miscarriage after he found out she had a boyfriend and the main character has to bury the remains and saves the father from hanging himself.

Most of the series are Harry Potter level magic and adventure, but that was pretty shocking and I’d be a bit wary letting my 12 year old read that.

I’m tired of international politics that have causes and consequences far beyond my meagre understanding. I’ll go to shitposting community and laugh at dogs wearing socks. Maybe there’ll be a new spongburb adventure.

Hamas.

I think at some point it just decides youre getting brainrot.

My toddler is responsible for about 99% of my youtube shorts viewing. I ask for a topic, it shows me about 5 relevant videos in a row, and then skibidis the tungtung.

Never have I ever seen it show my toddler anything I’m even remotely interested in.

Thats me, I the ring finger only gets involved if I need to press 2 of ctrl/alt/shift at the same time

I can see it catching on

IT WAS ACCEPTABLE AT THE TIME

Bonjour

with worse graphics

Absolutely 100% I’ll take this trade every day of the week. Graphics got as good as they ever needed to get during the X360/PS3 era. Obviously better is better, but theres a limit to how much you can actually do. Putting the costs aside, we’re properly entering the uncanny valley with some games now, where they almost look realistic enough to be real but its not quite right. The slightest glitch and it scares me a little. When an eye starts rolling funny or something. Even that aside, theres diminishing returns. When youre running fast and looking in as many directions as possible to see if theres movement on a ledge, it really doesnt matter one little bit if the hair has full shadows and has realistic physics.

Chris Chan the literal motherfucker? I might pirate the removed out of that just for curiosities sake.
