I may have put them off by being too aggressive. I’m pretty annoyed at this point, but if someone is engaging, maybe I should dial it back?

Was it? I was sure it was first released in 2022.

To be fair, you don’t always need to rely on fan mods for this. Apparently, Rockstar spent an absurd amount of time and attention getting the jiggle physics on horse testicles just right.

Yep, they’re all trash and should not be relied upon.

I got anywhere from 35% to 70% AI generated results on a book I wrote in 2019, before AI was even released.

eta: it’s not about plagiarism, either. I also ran my novel through plagiarism checkers, since it’s easy to accidentally write passages similar to existing work. 0% on those, but high numbers in the AI checkers.

The fuck has anything in this thread had to do with bigotry? Bigotry against what? Software? Hockey?

Or do you just call everything that offends you ‘bigotry’?

Sigh, okay, I’ll try it again.

Like I do every time there’s a huge update. Will this time be different? I hate Adobe, but the Gimp has yet to live up to its promise to replace it. I’d love to never give Adobe another cent, but we’ll see.

Because image 1 is woke.

Anything is better than woke, obviously.

Shout out to when it was funny that he was reading trump quotes and not just terribly sad.

Nah, this is the natural, logical outcome of capitalism – a profit based society will always reward sociopaths.

To be fair, they’re not geniuses, they’re sociopaths, often with a hearty sprinkling of nepotism.

So of course they’re hoarding resources and pillaging. They don’t think the rest of us are actual people, and we only exist to be exploited.

I taught my son to be a conscientious objector.

I caught hell for that, especially in conversations in my very, very small town where many people sent their kids into this meat grinder.

I told my son he was too good for that, and some locals hate me for that. Like they thought I was saying my son was better than theirs.

No, I just understand the system, and I’m not going to groom my kid to be chopped meat. You don’t have to do that either.

You do you. That’s not beautiful to me, though, e: and my son is the most beautiful thing in the world to me.

I was answering this as a dev and designer. That’s why this is more work.

Ah, but see, these are his plastic soldiers. There’s no threat to himself and they’re not real people, so it doesn’t matter.

😱

I don’t like Veteran’s Day and I’ve been called out for that.

I do respect and appreciate veterans for what they’ve done, but I cannot respect or celebrate the military complex that has thrown people into a meat grinder and then discarded them for decades, which is what that day represents to me.

I cannot support these wars, where people are brainwashed, used, then cast aside, to benefit elites and politicians who will never feel that pain and will literally party when dropping their bombs.

Fuck everything about that.

Everyone wants a demon bursting through the ground in an explosion of lava. There are classes for that. Nobody has ever asked for a scarf in our game, and our code doesn’t even know what a neck is.

Hahahaha. No.

Oh shit, I didn’t read the overall message at first and thought hell yeah, I’m a bunch of these things.

But they’re anti-these things, so fuck them.

I want to make mostly the same sign but with the opposite message.

e: also, pencil neck weak kneed gutless men are my jam. Plus long haired freaky people. They can apply.

Good on them.
