See picture.
AI is not a grift but it is very much a dangerous rudderless ship right now.
Quantum computing is also not a grift.
Hell I feel dirty saying this but you could argue blockchain is not a grift either.
The problem in all these things is the people not the technology.
You’re 100% correct. My youngest son is autism and will 100% be with me perpetually. I’m open to the other two staying longer too, but not for a free ride and not forever. I received no handouts in life and it made me who I am. Life is not easy.
I’m sorry you feel that way. Life sucks and doesn’t care about you. I’d rather my kids learn this from someone who loves them conditionally than from some random asshat that doesn’t give a shit.
If you’re looking for a participation medal for existing don’t expect one from me.
Child here that moved out at 18 and now a parent to 3.
I hear you, and I know the status quo is changing but fuck me I want my kids out at 18. I lived in shitty roach infested places in horrible neighbourhoods. I’ve wondered how I would have money for food let alone rent. That’s life. That’s growing. I want them to experience that because without the bad times you don’t learn to appreciate the good ones.
I know I’m alone in this sentiment I don’t care. I will always be there for my kids in true times of need and I know the world now isn’t the world of 30 years ago but fuck it. Survive or Thrive.
To me they’re not sequels maybe that’s the difference. Raimi has been open about handing young directors the keys to see what their vision is. If anything I view ED as more of an anthology at this point all the same and yet all different
2013 slaps you shut your whore mouth! /s
Also Evil Dead is something that has never had a bad iteration. Fight me.
Can it also be the summer of George? Lol
Easier said than done sometimes and speaking as a parent we aren’t all perfect and individuals (parents and children) vary.
She finna peg his ass in that power imbalance 🤣🤣🤣
See and I disagree. Musk is a piece of shit yes but he’s merely playing the game better for a large variety of reasons.
My point being, the game is not the problem. The problem is assholes. This happens in capitalism. It happens in communism. It happens everywhere. The problem is not the system the problem is assholes.
Adam Smith would be rolling in his grave if he saw what became of capitalism.
At what point was I defending the system? I make damn good money playing the game and I do my best to lift those around me.
But the system is rigged and I have neither the time or capacity to fix it just like everyone else. It will have to get a lot worse before it gets better.
But to think that you can just airdrop into a different system and not participate in the on youre in? I stand by what I said. Fincel. There i coined the term.
Like we have a choice with society. I love calling peers bootlickers because they are trying to survive and possibly having more success than you.
Hate the game not the player. What’s the economic equivalent of an incel?
Wtf? Lol
Outside of America many countries have a strong sense of pride especially when something is overtly representing them and their culture.
As a Canadian if they made this game with hockey and toques I’d damn well expect the prime minister to applaud them when they won game of the year too.
I don’t play JRPGS and never played metal gear. I played Clair because I heard of the sekiro type mechanics and was interested.
I loved the fight mechanics and I’m sure there was a good story in there if I cared but one thing that really grinded my gears was the goddamn cutscenes. Not only that but the incessant cut scene that leads into another cut scene that leads into another cut scene. Seriously I spent half the game skipping cut scenes.
Killer Mike get off Lemmy! Lol
I’d elaborate. Experiment with drugs. Youth is to experiment do it safely.
I’m 48. I’m going to expend many of you here are white men much younger than me.
Some words if advice.
Have kids young. You will never be ready. There is an old expression, “In for a penny. In for a pound.”. Either you like the idea of kids or not. If you do, don’t wait just do it.
Romance. African women are 🥰. If they’re part of the Diaspora and like me you tend to be more if an introvert the juxtaposition can work amazing.
Don’t forget the forest for the trees. Yes the world is on fire. Yes things are increasingly bleak and hopeless. Enjoy life. You have family and friends and they are still important and mean something. Cherish that.
Everyone makes mistakes. What’s important is do you learn from them and how do you recover?
Comparison is the thief of joy.
Be different. Be contrary. Challenge. If everyone jumps turn around and look at the person telling you to jump but don’t do it blindly.
The honest question is where are we with AI in its current state?
