Exocrinous

The Apple wall isn’t in line with the other walls. It has the perspective of one of those paintings that got Adolf kicked out of art school

🅱️inance 🫰🤌👌

I moved back to Windows for the games years ago. But I’m never going to install a copy of Windows 11 because fuck that shit, and the next time I move to Linux, I suspect games won’t be a problem.

Have they fixed Discord streaming yet?

I shall amend my comment to say clarification instead of correction.

AGI is the stuff you see on Star Trek.

Clarification. AGI describes Data, Moriarty, and Peanut Hamper, but it doesn’t describe the Enterprise’s computer. Which has speech recognition, but is less intelligent than an LLM.

Yeah, bruh is using the Halo definition of AI. Probably played too many video games instead of actually paying attention to the history of computing.

I for one think LLMs are more intelligent than an ant. The writer of this piece is using the movie definition of AI instead of the real world definition of AI.

I have 1000 hours in Warframe and have spent a grand total of 5 dollars on it. I never felt like I needed to spend any more. Sure, it’s annoying getting a platinum discount as a daily reward instead of something useful like tellurium, but that’s the fullest extent of the advertising. The market has a button to hide all items that require platinum to buy. And Darvo’s Deals isn’t even relevant anymore.

I’m sure Warframe does have whales, but that’s in the same way weed has addicts. Some people are going to form an addiction no matter what. I’d rather those people be playing warframe than something else, because my gut says there’s a better chance of recovery in a less predatory game. My thinking is those kinds of people develop an addiction because something is wrong in their life circumstances. They’re already looking for something to get sucked into, doesn’t matter what it is. I never felt any kind of pull from Warframe, and while I do have a non addictive personality, I also felt much less annoyed at the game than at other freemium games.

When you get to The New War you’ll meet an awesome Grineer character who gives us a similar look into Grineer leftism

In all seriousness the reason Warframe moved to the Fediverse is that it’s a leftist game. The core gameplay loop is slaughtering capitalists, monarchists, and imperialists using an array of sci-fi and ninja weapons. The player character in Warframe is someone who’s been burned by the control of an empire, and now manages their own tech. It’s the same situation as with the Star Trek community moving here because Star Trek is woke. /pos

Elden Ring isn’t that popular. You should be looking at AAA mass market masterpieces like [email protected]

Fun fact: Cortana is named after a French sword

I keep my buds in their own case in a special pocket of my backpack. If I’m sitting at my desk and get a call, I need to pause what I’m doing, stand up, extricate myself from my work corner, go to my bag, open the special pocket, take out the charging case, take out the buds, and put them in. And I have to do it either in the 10 seconds I have to answer the call, or one handed while having a conversation.

Okay but what do I do if I’m not wearing my buds when I receive a surprise call?

Xbox OS is clearly winning with the 360

What a cowardly response. You dismiss all possibility of actually working to make things better, and choose hopes and wishes instead. Your argument is that trying to make things better is bad? How dishonourable.

Then why are there racists why fly the rainbow flag?

If the rainbow had been enough, then we wouldn’t have ended up with racist queers in the community. That’s why the rest of us decided to send a clearer message. Are you interested in sending a clear message?

The social construct of whiteness excludes so-called white people from having “colour” or “brownness”. These are objectively untrue of people with pale skin, because cream is a colour and a shade of brown. But white supremacists and white culture at large deny objective reality, and substitute their own. This is why the term “people of colour” is able to exist. If it weren’t for racists pretending white isn’t a colour, it wouldn’t make sense. In society, white people are privileged by being treated as though they do not have race. The privilege of being white is never having to think about your race if you don’t want to. It’s the default. If you say “a worker” or “a politician” or “a firefighter” or “a woman” or “a gay person”, society teaches people to think of a white person in all of those cases. Being nonwhite is considered a character trait, and being white isn’t. People of colour were often given less depth in older movies, and excluded from being the protagonist, and that’s still happening, because society says whiteness is the default. That whiteness… isn’t a characteristic. Within this social context, a brown line which is objectively the colour of “white skin”, subjectively excludes white people due to their social privilege.

All human skin colours (including “white”) are shades of brown. The flag has a brown stripe for people of colour.
