  I’m checking myself in as cargo.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Sitting in traffic⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Then you don’t have an office job, but a lab job that also involves sitting in an office.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨wir suchen dich‼️‼️🗣️📢📢⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, but only in combination with an s, so it’s chs that’s pronounced as ks.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨wir suchen dich‼️‼️🗣️📢📢⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You find that in a lot of european languages, even in English almost everything that ends in -tion is pronounced -shon.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨wir suchen dich‼️‼️🗣️📢📢⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s like saying F is close to P

  Korean for example doesn’t have an F sound, a lot of loanwords that have an F sound use P instead, France turns into Prangseu and coffee to copy.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨wir suchen dich‼️‼️🗣️📢📢⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  In some areas people pronounce an initial ch as a k, like kina instead china. But apart from that neither of the two actual ch sounds exists in English.

  I just so happen to have passed by one of my old schools, what should I do next?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨wir suchen dich‼️‼️🗣️📢📢⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  suchen = to search/look for

  and ch doesn’t make a k sound, not even close.

  I do happen to have a stack like the right one on my desk…

  By not calling it patriarchy, that term is burned.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nvidia Announces DLSS 5, and it adds... An AI slop filter over your game⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, but they did that for like two games.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nvidia Announces DLSS 5, and it adds... An AI slop filter over your game⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Ideally you’d have a DLSS-like system trained specifically trained for only one game instead of a general system. Then you can train it on 4k with highest settings and you should get something that doesn’t mess with the style of the game.

  freindzone

  Is that like the frenemyzone?

  It looks like it applied some make-up and changed the hair colour.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nvidia Announces DLSS 5, and it adds... An AI slop filter over your game⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You could call it temporal super sampling.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New open world parkour game Panline is so exact a reflection of Mirror's Edge it gives me vertigo⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It is open world and thanks to the art style both Mirror’s Edge games still look fantastic. Also I would call it a reboot, neither prequel nor sequel.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nvidia Announces DLSS 5, and it adds... An AI slop filter over your game⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  DLSS is short for Deep Learning Super Sampling, it does the upscaling using deep learning, what people also call AI. The upscaler has to be trained on images. Depending on how you train it you either get something that looks almost exactly the same as the game at a higher resolution or you get AI slop.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nvidia Announces DLSS 5, and it adds... An AI slop filter over your game⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Isn’t DLSS by defintion always an AI slop filter?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Haha yes society is great⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Worst case it will oscillate and not stabilise. Then you get generations with a lot of people and generations with very few people. If you have for example pension systems build on the expectation that you have at least a stable population, ideally a growing population, then this will cause a lot of problems, you can see this in Germany for example. If your population oscillates over decades then you need to adapt your society, your government, all the systems to this oscillation.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  개새끼 or just 새끼 seem to be much more popular instead of 바보 새끼. And a lot of people will just say 씨 instead of 씨발.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Wait, I thought we’re married, what’s even the point of this now?

  Have fun

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Sometimes I wonder if the subtext of religion is; if you join one youre telling on yourself that you can easily be manipulated.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh sure you can become anything you want, but I’d argue if you’re born into a religious family initially you just adopt it. Not as a matter of survival, but as a world view that is provided to you, you just accept it as facts initially, because you don’t know anything. Compare it to how most kids initially believe Santa Claus exists because they were told so. Eventually you come to a point where you either challenge it or continue. You can also participate in some church community stuff without being a member or even going to church.

  J’ai jamais compris les sacres québécois.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Sometimes I wonder if the subtext of religion is; if you join one youre telling on yourself that you can easily be manipulated.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Aren’t most people born into religion?

  Just steal from the poor, they don’t have money to sue.

  I hope you didn’t just bite into an avocado.

  I would see a headline like this push people more towards radicalisation against young men, not against women.
