You really need to specify where you’re talking about…

In America there’s no limitations on federal murder, but some states do

Thanks.

Lasted about two hours, batteries were frying them so they took out the batteries trying to shut them off, but they just kept working due to ambient current on the lines.

It also brought up how much more random it is, it’s not like a hand grenade that expands equally. It’s more like someone threw a bunch of loose bottle rockets in a camp fire. They’re all going to go off, but the chances of hitting one specific spot is low. Obviously we’re all spinning and hurtling thru space too, so it truly is just random fucking chance.

Still not a “big” one…

I think it was late 1800s America got hit by one that allowed unpowered telegrams to be sent nationwide for like, a while. If we got one that strong in the modern era, it would blow every single electric transformer on that entire hemisphere. Not just hit the safety and cut out, like actually explode and be permanently destroyed.

Those things are already difficult to produce for multiple reasons, and losing them on that scale would take over a decade to recover. And it would obviously happen in the wealthiest places first, and global demand would mean other places can’t afford to replace any from normal breakage, along with driving up the price of a lot of materials used for other electronics.

We won’t see it coming either. Like, the article says we’re predicting more the next few days, but that’s because these are always happening, and when there’s one big one, there’s likely to be other big ones.

It’s one of those things you can’t unlearn once you realize we’re at a constant risk of something that would basically ruin society. At least it’s a coin flip if it hits anywhere specific when it happens. Because eventually it will happen

Know good review sites

Rtings and Tom’s Hardware are usually all you need, but for niche things you need to branch out

“We are birthing superintelligence. We are creating the mind of God, infinite, destined to solve every problem we’ve ever faced and usher in an age without death.”

What brain rotted CEO grifter is that quote even from?

Prebuilts have become about the only way to get a deal for a while now.

Whatevere, whatever, if closeness to platfroms my and languages, their AI pick, are a statement

We’re cooked…

Wasn’t the studios fault

They fought to change the name since the beginning because they knew it would be impossible to deliver a real sequel and while this name might get initial sales it would cause blowback killing the game almost immediately…

Which is exactly what happened.

Like, they’d have loved to make Masquerade 2, but they weren’t given the time or funds to make it.

The really weird one is shellfish.

Shellfish allergy is a big deal, And prior to refrigeration it wasn’t a common food unless right near da beach.

So people could not try it till they were adults, and just keel over on the spot. But since shellfish allergy is weirdly genetic, the populations most at risk for it now, are the ones who spent centuries avoiding it. Because everyone else kept losing at least some of the people who were allergic

or there are common bits of wisdom in most religions and there may be something to that.

The entire point of religion is to make important rules followed.

When a food is banned, it’s because that food was killing people when the rules were written. Abrahamic religions don’t like sex that doesn’t make babies, because they all start as persecuted cults by the main branches and the fastest way to grow is to have kids born into it.

It’s obviously all outdated, but it boils down to how you’d convince a kid not to do something when you can’t watch them 24/7: follow the rules or Santa will find out.

Like there’s always jokes about Jewish Sabbath, but honesty that was just the equivalent to modern union mandated lunch breaks. The only way to guarantee a day off back in the day, was to explicitly outlaw doing anything. Pretty much all anyone in the household could do was just relax and hang out together.

Like I said, it’s all way outdated. But every time you try something new suddenly the ATF starts hanging around…

It’s a big club, anyone that’s not fascist is in it by default…

Why do you make a handful of accounts a day to spam posts?

Why not just use the same account for more than an hour?

No one is upset, were disappointed.

That’s all it is, pity.

It’s 2025, and people still using “just a joke bro”?

Like, we all just like ved thru that and then the very obvious and foreseeable revelation that it wasn’t a fucking joke.

So maybe, just maybe, basic decency is a thing, and we shouldn’t dehumanize people?

Especially not for being interesting enough to for a self-absorbed stranger who’s brain is rotted from being raised by YouTube and needs real life dialed up to 11.

Because there’s less companies making media…

30 studios will all want to have the blockbuster game of the year, then 2-3 others to be safe.

3 studios want the same thing, but that’s a tenth of the games.

Plus to make it even worse rather than a game being a one off sale, maybe some dlc, they want “live service” where people keep buying cosmetics. The studios don’t want people buying a bunch of games, they want you playing their flagship and only flagship.

It’s less that the biggest studios but up smaller for talent, IP, or anything. They’re buying them up to shit them down to squash competition. That’s why we’re seeing it all over. Why bother making good media, when they can just make sure theirs is the only option?

As a result there’s a capacity crunch on memory production, shooting the prices for RAM sky high, over 100 percent in the last few months alone

They said “market price”… What market are you shopping at?!

i’m talking about people i’m interacting with face to face, having a conversation with.

Fucking obviously…

Wonder how much longer till you realize a 5 minute conservation with someone who’s only interacting with you as part of their job, isn’t enough to truly know the depths of their personality?

What is so special about you that requires everyone’s effort to cultivate superficial differences?

Even from this short exchange, I can assure you if it was face to face I would be monotone and put zero effort into the conversation. Not because I’m a fucking NPC, but because I want to stop interacting with you immediately, but for one reason or another can’t tell you to just fuck off.

Does it make sense now?

Do you understand what the common factor is when you and people like you constantly complain about “NPCs”?

Do you get that it’s just people obligated to interact with you and desperate for it to be over?

for a person to be human

They have to be alive, that’s it bro…

Using that term is a red flag, because it means the speaker is fine dehumanizing people, for something as fucking stupid as not “showing individuality” that is superficial enough a random stranger notices and is fucking entertained.

Only a complete and utter piece of shit is so blase about dehumanizing people in 2025.

1. Make post saying no one will talk to them

2. Refuse to talk to anyone.

3. Magically become popular without changing anything about yourself

I wish to properly inform them why I have made this decision and why they should too.

You’re asking how to verbalize why you don’t like AI, but you won’t say why you don’t like AI…

Let’s see if this helps, imagine someone asks you:

I don’t like pizza, how do I tell people the reasons why I don’t like pizza?

How the absolute fuck would you know how to explain it when you don’t know why they don’t like pizza?
