We largely see the show from the perspective of Brain. It’s not unbelievable that Pinky, or some of the “stupid” things he says are hallucinations, whether visual or auditory and that Brain attributes his hallucinations to Pinky’s “stupidity” due to the Dunning-Kruger effect.
Obviously, this is a death of the author interpretation but… I think we all died this year anyway so that feels alright

I’m just gonna chalk this up to you not understanding my points literally at all and stop having this conversation. You are insufferable to talk to and outright refuse to see my point at all.

Okay, fine. I’ll do big words with you.
Let’s talk about the difference between Ethics and Morals. Ethics are what you individually follow, it’s your Ethos. Morals are what a society follows.
It may be morally correct to say that “people should be allowed to do as they please” while also ethically correct to say “you shouldn’t disrespect people’s wishes.”
You’re right, that it is moral for someone to imitate art. At least, in our culture. But that’s because most people follow the ethos that they can do and take as they please. I personally hold myself to a higher standard than that, and I hope you can do the same some day.

What do you make of the use of email in the business world? You’re right that quite a bit of that has turned into instant messaging as well, ie I text my boss instead of sending them mail but it definitely feels like that’s going away a lot slower if not expanding

I’m curious, not bashing. What signs have you seen that lead you to believe email is dying?

You really just wrote 4 paragraphs to say “I wanna make other people upset for my own personal gain at little to no benefit to the world at large”
- Comment on Google To Allow Double Serving Ads. 1 week ago:
Not sure when the last time you tried doing this is, but it’s pretty easy these days. KDE connect can pretty much handle most of the HTPC necessities. Alternatively, a debloated Onn box will do the trick quite easily
- Comment on Horses ARE Forever 1 week ago:
Right? It would be so much cheaper if we just used to the reinforcing steel to create thin tracks which we could put much more thermally efficient and eco-friendly wheels onto. In turn, we could carry exceptionally large loads of cargo or people over vast distances for a mere fraction of the cost (monetary) and a fraction of the cost (to the world) by creating long, highly aerodynamic vehicles capable of moving at ridiculously high speeds that would be uncontrollable for the average joe on the road.
Wait, haven’t I heard of something like this before?

I can’t remember if this was said to me or if I overheard it. Maybe I’m fabricating the memory entirely, but in any case, I recall a conversation where someone said almost exactly what you did in that last sentence. The reply was of course
“Well someone always gets hurt.”
“What do you mean?”
“It costs someone money to put those bathrooms in.”
Cue the “what the fuck did I just hear” alarms

I’m suggesting that disrespecting an artists wishes causes them unnecessary struggles which in turn unnecessarily makes it more difficult for them to do their work.

I didn’t say they needed respect to be creative. I said they needed respect to be creative unfettered.

So, to recap, your position is this:
Artists do not deserve the respect that would allow them to be creative unfettered. Gotcha.

I take it as flattery
I respect your position, and I appreciate people who are willing to share their creativity in an inspiring way like that.
However, others don’t see it as flattery. Particularly in eastern cultures, it is seen as mockery or plagiarism. You can choose to disagree about why they don’t want you to imitate their style, but you should always respect the request.

No. We’re acting as if their opinion always mattered just as much as it does now.
While your style is not, can not, and should not be your intellectual property, you should have the right to say “I don’t want you to imitate my exact style” and people should respect that.

Imitators have been doing that since always, long before LLMs
Fill me in a bit. Are you under the impression that artists are particularly okay with/enjoy people imitating their art style?
- Comment on Keep Tabs On Your Vehicle’s Needs With LubeLogger 1 week ago:
Those are the same buttons I saw.
The export attachments I assume is intended to export the files you would upload, like scanned in service records and whatnot. Obviously, the demo throws a “no records” error (or however they phrased it). Presumably, they didn’t think about people wanting to test that feature and didn’t bother to upload attachments, but you could upload an attachment and then export it to test methinks.
The reports, however is where you’ve confused me a bit. Mine defaults to exporting to PDF, which is definitely a meaningful format. You can convert it into anything

Can not get to you under the blanket
Good point.
There actually an interesting reason behind this.
And here’s the real one, if anyone is interested. Alligators are ambush predators, and they don’t do very well with twisting. They’re designed to go forwards, and boy oh boy do the GO FORWARDS. So, poking at it’s side actually does make it hesitant because it is afraid that whatever is touching it over there is just as fast as it is. However, whatever is over there touching it’s side doesn’t have to twist, whereas it would. Therefore, it sits still and hopes that you either get in front of it, pass over it, or at least be swift.

Yep! I read an article recently about a pentester who was challenged to break into a hotel, and they happened to use RFID in their cards. He social engineered and piggybacked into somewhere and then used a flipper zero to get around inside the building when he hit a locked door

They’ve done away with some of this with the time walking features. You can actually go and level a character through those old expansions these days. I think the only one fully missing is vanilla because of the cataclysm, but then there’s vanilla wow for that
