What I’m reading is that Black and Asian women can only be attractive when they conform to western beauty standards: petite features, small frames, perfect proportions.
Considering that some games these days use the likenesses of actual people to create their characters, it disgusts me that some random guy out there gets to be the deciding voice on beauty.
He seems to be pretty hung up on that one guys girlfriend though…

We only suffer from a similar issue because people’s education on voting comes from American media.
The system we have allows for much more nuance than the US, but we are told by tv that a vote for anyone but the big two, even for the greens, is “throwing away your vote”. But as this handy comic explains, that’s not true. https://www.chickennation.com/voting/
No silly, we don’t excuse genocide. We just proudly proclaim that there is no genocide in an attempt to hold onto the fundamentalist Christian voters that we don’t realise were never going to vote for us anyway.
And nothing of value was lost
“Remembering Prey”? The game is 7 years old, and has a release on current gen consoles. The nostalgia cycle is starting to spiral in on itself. Get ready for “Remember Baldurs Gate 3” next month.
If we want to talk about a game that is about ready for a nostalgic revival, featured unique gameplay for the time, told a story with interesting lore, and had the potential for interesting sequels, let’s remember Prey (2006). Also, it had a bus full of evil ghost kids on a spaceship. Can’t beat that.
Don’t kid yourself Richard, If Zuckerberg ever got the chance he’d eat you and everyone you care about!
But seriously, you worry about a divided humanity? We’ve been divided for centuries, and the people at the top aren’t going to willingly step down from their mountain of corpses to slum it with the rest of us.
The issue is, if you want a job in this sort of field, 90% of the time it is contract, with no option or ability to switch over to permanency. I have worked for several years in my current IT job, but I am technically a contractor, and every 6 months, I need to make peace with the fact that I might not have a job for no reason. I definitely do not rock the boat, because even though they’re “not allowed” to fire me if I join a union, they only have to wait till the end of the contract to find another worker bee.
According to the article, the only things being removed are digital copies that were given free with a DVD or Blu-Ray purchase.
Not amazing (I would argue that Funimation should make all eligible digital copies downloadable before the service ends), but assuming customers have their original physical media, the loss is minor.
I wonder if the people who make comments like these would feel quite so smug if their likeness was put online for anyone to use to promote hateful or disrespectful content.
Thefact thatyour commentcan stillbe understood kindof disprovesyour point.
Beingpedantic aboutspaces andhyphens in anonline comment-section doesn’t makeyou a better-person.
You’re right. Let’s do nothing instead.
It doesn’t feel like it actually inferred anything from the comment.
“You spoke about computers, so you probably know about computers”
“You express concerns about privacy, so you are likely privacy conscious”
“You said you were 30ish, so you’re maybe 30…ish”
It essentially paraphrased each part of the comment, and gave it back to you like an analysis. Of course, this is ChatGPT, so it’s likely not trained for this sort of thing.
I’m not sure I understand what is being said here. In a disaster situation, EVs are a risk because infrastructure is impacted? Is the same not true for petrol cars?
I think the show is great and presents complex stories in simple ways. Assuming the creators of the show have a big hand in writing for the game, then I’d have confidence in this game.
Clearly competent moderators have some sort of effect, or these stories would not exist. If self-moderation worked, then the dangerous canning post mentioned in the article wouldn’t have gained any traction.
Without competent moderation, the ability for users to manipulate or derail communities grows. A voting system is entirely subjective, and a bad or dangerous idea can set roots if enough unaware people give it the votes. I am aware that moderation is also subjective, but competent, knowledgeable mods can help guide a community, or protect it from targeted harassment.
Also, they’re the ones with no life who can devote their time to monitoring the community. Most people spend a few minutes at a time visiting a community. That’s not enough time to verify every post in the last 24 hours, and vote for them all accordingly (depending on the size of the community of course),
I understand that the 3DS and Vita are older handhelds, but it still doesn’t feel right to refer to them as ‘retro’ yet. Especially I’m the case of the 3DS, it was essentially the latest platform before the Switch.
I’m not staring down the barrel of my own aging mortality. YOU ARE!
What the fuck are you talking about?
Porn has existed forever. Onlyfans is a type of porn consumption. A stiff, plastic, clammy-skinned woman with anime proportions isn’t about to replace the social intimacy that people get from OF. And yes, I know that there are some really good AI gen’s images out there, but it’s a different market entirely.
And if I want porn, there are a million sites for images and videos that don’t require a machine to steal the likenesses of a thousand women to output the most generic bland porn I’ve ever seen.
If AI is going to replicate the social and porn aspects of the industry, so you really think the creators aren’t going to exploit horny idiots out of their money?
While I am no fan of the NYT and other news site’s pricing models, I don’t think that this goes against “protecting the press”. Journalists do a job. They research, compile, draft, and write articles in their own voice (or the voice of the news outlet). They are paid for this work. OpenAI wants to scrape the words off news sites so that their language model can regurgitate them for free.
This is the AI Art thing all over again. Creators should be paid for their work.
Seems like the MSM has realised that they can get revenue for reporting negatively on Biden, no matter how minuscule the story is. Meanwhile Trump has been a maniac from day one, so his senile ramblings aren’t as much of a hot topic, and go unreported. Screw democracy, there is money to be made from hate.
