  As an anecdote I can attest to this personally. I stopped using AI assistance tools for my work bc I noticed I’d stopped thinking about what I was doing

  My grandfather’s lessons were always about how he fucked up so we shouldn’t do what he did… It kinda worked actually. He died working two deadend jobs and no retirement plan and it’a always kept me motivated to figure out my future

  Hey, the were honest. I’d let it fly

  I never considered that nasa might fund other forms of research besides just space. Or where they going to test LSD + no gravity next

  What idiot let these near their cock

  Played the demo a while ago. Excellent reverse horror

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Art is always a risk. Under our current system it’s more profitable to minimize that risk. Thus you get the boring and predictable

  Shit, is that why I have autism??

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Shocked to hear ‘prompt engineer’ is not a real job⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  In this case? Pretty easily with the right data. Though I think an opinion poll would be more interesting

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨"A watched pot never boils" is actually advice for keeping your pot from boiling. Because a soup boiled is a soup spoiled.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  If you mean keeping your soup at a boil is bad then sure. But I always bring it to a boil before turning it down to a simmer

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Apple customers are paying 16 times more for a chinese product sold 25 bucks⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Who care about the city? The things that actually matter:

  • specs
  • Quality of the chip

  Are these things worth $400? Hell no. But I still don’t think this is a good comparison.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Ancient civilizations probably mysteriously died out because they became so advanced they realized what they were and just couldn't anymore.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  If you generalize the term “civilization” to be any sufficiently large group of people who have some sense of shared purpose or identity you could include gaming communities or even forums too

  Things usually don’t just explode all at once though ofc sometimes there is abrupt change that causes a community to decay rapidly

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bethesda Gifts Everybody in the Skyblivion Team a Copy of Oblivion Remastered⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Ah hell yeah. That’s really the only change I wanted as a kid tbh

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Ancient civilizations probably mysteriously died out because they became so advanced they realized what they were and just couldn't anymore.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Is this a shower thought or a bong thought?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bethesda Gifts Everybody in the Skyblivion Team a Copy of Oblivion Remastered⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I hope they kept all the realy bad voice lines from the original. It was part of the charm

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bethesda Gifts Everybody in the Skyblivion Team a Copy of Oblivion Remastered⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Wow that was one of my favorite parts about Oblivion. You could break it so easily

  I had a wizard who was maxed out in basically ever skill except the magic skills so when I finally did the mages guild quest line I was face tanking everything

  I was so over powered I started breaking the enchantment system bc I had done every important quest and could afford anything (100% chameleon was hilarious)

  And let’s not forget that jumping off mountains to level up is clearly the best mechanic of all time

  Maybe I’ll skip this one if they removed the good jank

  Wages haven’t kept up with inflation so comparisons like this are only a small part of the picture

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨ChatGPT spends 'tens of millions of dollars' on people saying 'please' and 'thank you', but Sam Altman says it's worth it⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Honestly they were better until recently. GPT (at least) has gotten really good at de-escalation and providing (mostly) factual responses when you get irate

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Google has illegal advertising monopoly, judge rules⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  the article is talking about how they could have a booming ad business but at present have little to none

  The Cupertino tech giant is not an advertising company, however. Chatterjee notes that Apple’s decision to only show a single Search Ad in its App Store could limit the revenue opportunity relative to his prior expectations.

  Remembering my chemistry professor telling us about how he went half deaf. As a young TA he had access to a brick of sodium and thought it would be a good idea to throw it into his parents pool
