can we have a version that’s less concise? maybe 500 words or so.
all you need is one saying it’s confusing and the other saying “x birds can do it with a pea brain.”
that’s it.

memorizing the order of the alphabet would take precious real estate that could instead hold a couple more digits of pi

don’t listen to the other comments they obviously don’t know about the primordial jellyfish
- Comment on WILD 2 weeks ago:
I disagree, time should flow left to right and by the nature of the egg it starts with top-to-bottom. so you have to start on the left, go to the bottom, keep going right, then the jellyfish rises so go back to top and then complete the circle

leave it to elon to take existing technology and make it worse to sell it as innovative high tech. fucking moron

I’m not that cynical about little kids. Maybe they sometimes do things that annoy you because they find it funny, not because it’s specifically annoying. Surely not annoying to them anyway. idk I find it weird to ascribe malice to a 3-5 year old. in any case, I’m a big guy, I can handle a little kid even if they want to annoy me.

I wonder how much recognition it has on non-white people. we’ve seen these models not having enough people of color in their samples before.

nah I don’t think it’s that calculated. there’s nothing about loss that has anything to do with advertisers.
also 4chan is a cesspool of nazis. doesn’t really work as a parallel.

that’s funny, but trying to answer a kid’s questions is both humbling and educational. they ask about things you take for granted, and even as an inquisitive person you might accept some things “just are” without thinking about them until a kid asks you what that’s all about.
sometimes you know the answer and it’s satisfying.
sometimes you don’t and thanks to technology now you can research it together in a way maybe you couldn’t when you were a kid and once wondered about it but never learned and maybe you forgot to ask again later.
sometimes you think you know but once you try to explain it you realize that there’s lots of holes in your understanding.
sometimes they just tell you something you didn’t know because they watch educational kids shows and no one told you that sloths are pretty impressive swimmers.
there’s a monologue by a character called Eve in the Love Death and Robots episode Pop Squad that lives rent free in my head. if you’re not gonna watch it:
!Ive been alive for 218 years. I’ve seen… too much. But she makes everything new. I love seeing things through her little eyes. They’re so bright. They’re so full of life. Not Dead. Like Yours.!<

funny, I was thinking the other day why Lemmy very actively uses very old memes, especially Saddam Hussein and
:.|:;then I remembered that this is mostly people who ran away from reddit after the nth overreach, looking fondly back to the pre-enshittification era. makes sense they’re bringing back and referencing old memes too. - Comment on AI Summary 2 weeks ago:

yeah that’s my point. language isn’t math, it changes over time organically and therefore is bound to have quirks. some of it is even inorganic, like when English linguists wanted to spell words of Latin origin in a way that reflects it.

I’m much more in favor of never using his name just for the sole reason that he loves to see his name everywhere. plus we already have a word for his supporters; it’s hogs.
- Comment on I hate that that happens 2 weeks ago:
well I can’t find a source for it now. maybe I’m misremembering. I read it in the book The Universal History of Numbers by Georges Ifrah. maybe it was referring to some remnant exception, maybe it was about another language. can’t verify it cause the book is not nearby right now. maybe I confused it with four different ways to pluralize in French (s, x, aux, none) idk.
- Comment on I hate that that happens 2 weeks ago:
maybe I should have clarified: not every language has quirks in the same ways. German has weird articles that make no sense. French has different pluralization rules for up to four objects
But even of you just want to think about writing: German makes super long words that look monstrous by mushing words together. French doesn’t pronounce half the letters in its spelling. Arabic doesn’t really have vowels but instead uses diacritics that are often omitted so you have to be really familiar with the language to read at all.
- Comment on I hate that that happens 2 weeks ago:
no it’s not. you can find quirks like this in every language.

the first time I see it?
you think this is the first motherfucking gameplay video that I’ve seen from this motherfucking game in ten motherfucking years?
no one said anything about a time span to my liking.
either read the conversation you’re trying to contribute to or just stop talking about irrelevant shit.
I’m asking for the plan.
#where’s the plan, lebowski? where’s the fucking plan?
- Comment on Star Citizen devs report drying funds, micromanagement, overspending, and episodic release for Squadron 42 2 weeks ago:
sorry i didnt realize you were rummaging through my comment history to find something to attack because you cant come up with a good argument in the relevant conversation so i thought you meant i was talking about this scam.
I don’t know what depths of your ass you pulled that the team of the latest prince of persia is my “favorite game studio”. I think you should be jailed for playing with people’s livelihoods despite their success merely for more profit, yes.
a time span to my liking? how about any time span? tell me when it’s coming out mate. where’s the plan? you don’t know why I’m calling it a scam, you don’t know what I criticized about it… why is it so hard for you to follow a conversation?

hate? what’s with you guys weirdly anthropomorphizing a game that’s only maybe halfway done in a decade? you got too invested, too attached maybe, that someone calling it a scam seems “hateful” however that works? rage? lol wtf have you seen anyone rage before, mate? calling something a scam is not personal, it’s not even an attack. and it’s definitely something I live on. I have called people to be jailed for swindling.
how much money has this game extracted from dummies over the past decade? how much money’s worth is “playable”? I was gonna say “out” since that was the original claim but obviously the answer is zero. the games not out. but I’ll settle for playable since apparently you guys have already given up hope on an actual release and have settled on playing half baked demos bit by bit.
pointing out that you’re being scammed is not hate. it’s a wake up call. I understand though, an alarm clock seems hateful to me too when I’m enjoying my dream too much.
you should see me talk about the cybertruck.
