oh I thought you were gonna say commas. I don’t trust anyone who uses even a single comma, they’re definitely a russian bot.

yes, the oklahoma post is a reliable source.
- Comment on AI-generated isekai novel that won a literary contest Grand Prize and Reader’s Choice award has its book publication and manga adaptation cancelled 4 days ago:
most isekai light novels in general don’t make isekai light novels look good.

AI-generated isekai novel that won a literary contest Grand Prize and Reader’s Choice award
if an isekai novel won literary awards, let alone an AI-generated isekai, then I’m assuming that it was the only novel in the contest.
- Comment on Hooded Horse ban AI-generated art in their games: "all this thing has done is made our lives more difficult" 4 days ago:
I fucking hate gen AI art and it has made my life more difficult in many ways… suddenly it infests shit in a way it shouldn’t
seeing as how using genAI even during development is still rare enough that it makes the news, I can’t imagine it’s been as big of a problem for them as they make it seem. this sounds more like a smaller publisher taking a popular public stance for the PR.
- Comment on Greece, Italy and France ignore ICC warrant as Netanyahu flies through airspace for Trump talks 1 week ago:
So your thought is
no, that isn’t my thought at all. idk how you got confused, but I’m clearly saying states will do whatever they want so long as they think they can get away with it, and the legality or morality of doing something will never once factor into the decision.
- Comment on Greece, Italy and France ignore ICC warrant as Netanyahu flies through airspace for Trump talks 1 week ago:
Not intercepting the PMs plane and arresting him for the ICC warrant is also illegal under international law. Israel can’t legally occupy the settlements that they do, that’s a violation of international law. They can’t bomb refugee camps, that’s a violation of international law. They can’t starve Palestinians intentionally, that’s against international law. They can’t refuse medical help to injured civilians or Hamas fighters who cannot fight anymore, that’s against international law.
I’m assuming, as somebody quoting some random treaty to me, that you’re a liberal who views laws and legality as the order that holds our world together. It must come as a real shock to you that no state actually gives a shit about what’s legal, they only care about what they can get away with. Unless you can force your government to abide by a law, they can do whatever the fuck they want. That’s the neat thing about laws, they don’t mean shit unless the government in question decides to abide by them.
- Comment on Greece, Italy and France ignore ICC warrant as Netanyahu flies through airspace for Trump talks 1 week ago:
Surely shooting them down if they haven’t faced a trial can’t be protocol
That absolutely is protocol when an aircraft invades your airspace and refuses to turn around or land when intercepted. It’s happened before, and depending on the country, sometimes they don’t give the intercepted aircraft a warning before they open fire. Sometimes they even fire warning shots, but the interloper doesn’t see them.
That happened more than once with Korean civilian airliners that strayed into the USSR.
- Comment on If God truly is ‘all-powerful’ and ‘omnipotent,’ then Jesus dying wasn’t the only way to ‘save us.’” 1 week ago:
makes zero sense
that about sums up religion in general, well done. I think that about wraps the thread up, honestly. good work, everyone!
- Comment on What should I do with 2 old machines (Mac Mini and HP Pavilion g7)? 2 weeks ago:
Well, I’ve read about people using Mac Minis as home servers, so I’m assuming that one is more powerful than the HP laptop. You’ll probably want to make it the media server.
The HP laptop doesn’t need to be all powerful in order to function as a NAS, so that’s a good job for something with such weak specs. I would remove the battery though. If you keep it plugged in all the time you won’t need it, and batteries that stay charged all the time will end up being ruined anyway. Better to just recycle that than to risk ending up with a spicy pillow.
- Comment on What should I do with 2 old machines (Mac Mini and HP Pavilion g7)? 2 weeks ago:
you should indeed use one as your home media server. but you may not need to figure out how to control them. if you have a smart TV or a Roku, then you can always just set up a Jellyfin on the server and stream to your TV, which would allow you to use your normal remote.
for the other one, you can turn it into a NAS for backup purposes or something. there’s honestly a ton of different things you can do fairly easily.
- Comment on Been a long time since I smoked but if I opened the door to my fireplace and tossed in a kilo of pot and just let the smoke fill up the house will everyone in my house get high? 2 weeks ago:
maybe if you close the baffle plate. and make sure everyone agrees to it or you could catch a charge if they get pissy about it.

That’s going to make running anything on Windows rather uncomfortable.
