Good science will use previous norms, findings and general trends to provide a more useful starting point tho.

It’s funny you think that deleting your account is goanna remove the data.
They will just pull a back up. There’s zero chance these companies are going to risk losing the equivalent of pure gold

Honestly anything is an improvement over the subpar translation tools we had before. Still ain’t great but we can give a W where it’s earned.

I know people where even that would be considered cheap and for the poors.
The subscription for the HOA app where I work is 25k a week.
The sub… For the app. Not even the HOA fees. JUST the app. Monthly these people are spending thousands a month for just the privilege to live where they do.
- Comment on hey capitalists 6 days ago:
The entire argument falls apart simply because if socialism was correct then it would have enough resources to beat the capitalists.
End of the day your arguing resource generation and expenditure. Socialism sucks absolute fucking ass at resource generation. Like absurdly. It’s one of the worse there is.
It’s why socialist countries still need capitalism to generate the resources they excel at managing. A management focused system can’t beat a generation focused one.
It’s why anyone arguing for a pure system of any type. Capitalism, socialism, Communism, etc. Are fucking retarded and not worth engaging with.
The only ideal system would be one that can get out of its own ass enough to blend multiable different systems in a positive fashion. But humans suck too much to manage that.

If you can find a mid range in that price range your living in bullshit land of nonsense and rainbow unicorn farts.
The ai bubble has ass fucked laptop pricing.
Even the second hand market is fucked.
Most 500-700 dollar laptops are the ewaste crap now. Anything below that price point is out of date Chromebooks at best.
- Comment on We Spoke To Game Devs And All Of Them Hate DLSS 5: 'What The F***, Nvidia?' 1 week ago:
See that would be a cool use case. Games from around 08-15 that tried to do realistic graphics but couldn’t do it do to limitations could use a face lift and if this could be easily dropped into old titles as a filter it would be fine.
But I doubt it would be so because that’s a reasonable middle ground that still gives gamers choice in if they use it and devs wouldn’t be burdered.
- Comment on Developers Were Left in the Dark About DLSS 5 1 week ago:
Gamers remove shadows all the fucking time by choice. My experience shows that 99% of gamers would willfully and happily play on the lowest settings with a 5090 because big fps matters more then actually getting any fucking value out of the hardware.
- Comment on I am an American. I used to be proud of my country. Now it feels like a turd circling the drain. Is there anything going on behind the scene that America is actually doing good in? 1 week ago:
American and Chinese tourists are the two most hated tourists and it’s not even fucking close.
American because they are loud annoying impolite and destroy shit
Chinese because they are ignorant disgusting foul and destroy shit

- Comment on Harmony - Yet Another Discord Alternative 1 week ago:
Federation is just the current gimmick fad of the foss world.
Everyone has a massive boner for it in everything even when it makes no fucking sense or only harms a project.
Is it cool? Yeah. Is it actually important? Not at fucking all. It’s at best a secondary feature that’s nice to have if it doesn’t harm the project.
Getting an actual product that’s safe, secure and most importantly functional. Is infinity more important then federation.
End to end encryption is kinda the same problem. Not EVERYTHING needs that level of security. You don’t and shouldn’t be talking about things that require that level of secure in apps that aren’t designed first and foremost for that level of safety.
And you can’t expect everything to be secure and user friendly. They go against each other frequently.
Again a nice thing to have, but functional usability comes first.

I mean the exact problems you outline are the very reason the experiment is useful.
You give someone an order from authority regardless if it’s real or not. Then give them money to make it seem legit.
They will do basically fucking anything.
People don’t question, it’s the same reason you can basically walk into secure areas on accident with a pizza. Which is a WIERDLY common problem.
People assume things are fine if they appear fine and are told they are.

- Comment on Installs 200 mods on a 20 year old game. 2 weeks ago:
Yes…? Sex jokes, dick jokes, fart jokes, poop jokes, etc. body comedy has been a thing for literally as long as people have told jokes.
Slap a massive pair of tits on me, an over sized dick, a massive ass. Doesn’t really matter. Strip me down and parade me about. If your intent is to tell a joke and you are to the best of your ability attempting to be funny. Even if you fall flat. It’s at worse kinda what ever.
You arnt trying to pass off a clearly fake and exaggerated version of me as real. So what does it matter.
Intent and context matters. To claim it doesn’t is to claim that you are functionally unsociable at best and stupid at worse.
- Comment on Google Fiber will be sold to private equity firm and merge with cable company 2 weeks ago:
Google only does two things.
Roll out a product REALLY well then ignore it forever leaving it an amazing state that everyone loves and is insanely consumer friendly before randomly deciding to axe it with no reason.
Or roll out a product REALLY well then promptly over monetize it forever ruining everything good the engineers did in the first place. Thus making it very extremely unconsumer friendly.
They have no middle ground.

- Comment on Lutris now being built with Claude AI, developer decides to hide it after backlash 2 weeks ago:
Well when you have a massive problem of harassment, death threats and fucking retarded shit stains screaming at every single dev that is even theorized to use ai regardless if it’s true or not.
I blame fucking no one for hiding the fact.
This is on the users not the dev. The users are fucking animals and created this very problem.
Blaming the wrong people and attacking them is the yuck.
Scream at the executives and giant corpos who created the problem not some random indie dev using a tool.
- Comment on Lutris now being built with Claude AI, developer decides to hide it after backlash 2 weeks ago:
Hell most people turn off their brains when the word gets mentioned at all. There’s plenty of basic shit an ai can do exactly as good as a human. But people hear AI and instantly become the equivalent of a shit eating insect.
As long as your educated and experienced enough to know the limitations of your tools and use them accurately and correctly. Then AI is literally a non factor and about as likely to make an error as the dev themselves.
The problem with AI slop code comes from executives in high up positions forcing the use of it beyond the scope it can handle and in use cases it’s not fit for.
Lutris doesn’t have that problem.
So unless the guy suddenly goes full stupid and starts letting AI write everything the quality is not going to change. If anything it’s likely to improve as he off loads tedious small things to his more efficient tools.

Fuck valve for loot boxes but also fuck you twice as much.
Valve is the only market place and game company that isn’t as fucking consumers at every step of the way.
They have ONE problem. Instead of ALL the problems like everyone else.

Zoe was, is and likely will be. Always a massive cunt.
No personal idea if she was lying or not. I never looked much I to it by the time I heard about it all. I just know by the time I did. Zoe was already firmly on the list of turbo cunts that you can’t trust.
