  The only time a corporation should care, is when they are in the business of selling sex toys. Then it should only be in so far that you enjoy using their products and want to use them more.

  Corporations should be pro sex or absolutely ambivalent. There’s zero reason for them to be against it.

  Librefox or fuck even floorp is better then waterfox.

  I have played enough games that have lasted enough time to know that it’s not uncommon to be unable to get a voice actor to come back for many reasons up to and including death or retirement.

  For them to be able to have a consistent voice throughout without having to rely on that in the voice, actor only has to do a one-time gig get paid in the potentially earn a small annual stipend from the project depending on their contract.

  Genai for voices is really really good in that case. You can sell the use of your voice to train a model for a small lump sum with a yearly licensing fee or a large up front sum.

  Easier in a more reliable paycheck for the voice actor. As long as the contract is fair and compensation is done correctly and the licensing is on a strictly project by project basis. So no using that trained AI from multiple projects.

  Like this is probably the single best example of using genai that we can really hope for. It could be a slight bit better. Sure, but this is already leaps and bounds ahead of anything else.

  Bespoke case by case trained AI with contractual agreements for payment in licensing.

  It’s most Samsung who just put the TV OS on a monitor.

  They are on a technical level always identical so you just end up with two skus for the same product. One witb and one with out the OS.

  So it’s not that bad… Yet…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨U.S. consumers are so fucked up, that they put more than $1 billion on buy-now, pay later services during Cyber Monday⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  They don’t make hard inquiries. That’s kind of a huge fact of these services…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨U.S. consumers are so fucked up, that they put more than $1 billion on buy-now, pay later services during Cyber Monday⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Don’t forget that a lot of them do bank on the fact that people don’t pay back on time and then the over-the-top interest rates hit them.

  So the less financially savvy or intelligent, Or just the unlucky. Are subsidizing the deals for the rest of us.

  But while they’re in these early phases, if you can take advantage of them, do s*** sucks enough. Might as well get something out of it.

  Naw use em to shoot people in the wasteland and take their things.

  Ain’t no one safe in the post apocalyptic waste lands!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is gold investing a scam?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  The amount of time it would take for a post collapse society to regain enough stability to return to metal being needed for a currency is likely longer then you would be alive to actually benefit from the investment.

  Short term only direct barter and labor will be worth anything. You only need a currency when you have a non volatile society.

  It’s why the whole post apocalyptic gold value nonsense is nonsense. You NEED an economy to make currency have value. A post collapse society has no economy.

  I try… But every time I attempt to buy anything remotely specialized in my city it doesn’t exist. Stores just don’t exist for fucking anything anymore.

  And if they do they never have anything in stock and just want you to order from their website. Which frequently is poorly made and half the time it’s twice as expensive on their damn site.

  It’s fucked.

  Honestly I would be ok with then being the next tech silo. If they just actually did a good job more often.

  They perpetually suffer from 6 outta 10 syndrome.

  They are good enough to use, better then most alternatives, but just suck enough that I’m always disappointed but not angry.

  Your actively stupid if you don’t cause some bigger idiot with more money then brains will make a new grift that causes everything to be unaffordable.

  Fuck waiting for deals, fuck thinking twice. Just fucking buy it and ignore reality around you cause you will be pissed either way.

  Either a deal comes and you fucked yourself, or everything goes to the moon and now you have nothing AND your fucked.
