    I live in a heavily catholic European country, If I berated and cut contact with every racist, homophobic or transphobic person in my life I might as well go live in the woods alone.

    That happened to me too, I always assumed it was because it was a pirated copy and it was some kind of piracy deterrent thing but apparently it's due to some game mechanic I didn't really understand as a kid.

    others seem to just grandstand as these "scientific beings" that really are just emotionally bankrupt and care zero about anything but "resolving the next contradiction" which is just fucking ridiculous and cult-like.

    These types of nerds are so annoying, they're like 2006 reddit atheists but communist.

  • Is it unethical to hide that I’m the landlord?

    I take in less than half of what I pay to the bank in interest on the mortgage, so on paper right now it’s making a loss. (ofc the hope is that’s offset by interest rate drops and capital gain in future, so I’m not crying poor.)

    Eh ngl it's kinda shitty you're having other people pay your mortgage, then again the bloated housing prices are ridiculous and you are actually using the real estate yourself.

    You should at least be completely honest with your tenants tho, they deserve to know the whole situation.

    How much are you renting it for? If you're taking in profits and not just covering expenses then kinda go fuck yourself tbh.

    Also how do your tenants not know who they're sending money to? Do you just collect the money and pretend to give it to some other person?

    How can you prove B exists if it's not measurable?

    Because I've felt it, I've felt how understanding feels, because ultimately understanding is a conscious experience within a mind, you cannot define understanding without referencing conscious experience, you cannot possibly define it only in terms of behavior or function. So either you have to concede that every floating point multiplication in a digital chip "feels like something" at some level or you show what specific kind of floating point multiplication does.

    Also what's inherently wrong with art being generated by a computer? Not every piece of art made by a human is this unique, incredibly creative never before seen thing nor it needs to be as such, in fact most human made art is just rehashing of previous things.

    "Understand" is not a well-defined or measurable thing.

    So why attribute it to an LLM in the first place then? All of the LLMs are just floating point numbers being multiplied and added inside a digital computer, the onus is on the AI bros to show what kind of floating point multiplication is real "understanding".

    A lot of girls where I'm from at least will explicitly tell you they don't want to date a short guy, it's an actual real thing unfortunately. I think it's mostly patriarchal brainworms (man must be big and strong or whatever) but it is what it is. It's not THAT dramatic tho I don't think like it's a total dealbreaker for most women, short guys do have partners but it's definitely harder for them.

    I'd argue DLSS (and whatever equivalent AMD has) is pretty big, it made nice looking graphics way more accessible.

    Gameplay wise you're 100% correct, I'd love to see actually novel gameplay loops.

    It's actually pretty impressive what they've been able to do with the engine from a purely technical perspective but yeah it's pretty baffling that's what they chose to go with, I can't imagine the development was much faster than just making a new engine from scratch considering the amount of refactoring they must have done.

    Extremely good Bad Empanada video. Yeah this dude can sometimes be a lot but literally every word in this video is absolutely spot on IMO, definitely should be used to dunk on "please bro just vote" libs.

    He starts the video off with the obligatory lib "totalitarianism 42069 gorillion dead" but I promise he actually sincerely engages with Marx's writing later on from a perspective of somebody that's done a lot of research on occult writings. It's a pretty interesting video, I've never heard somebody compare Marx's Capital to a gothic horror novel and he does have a point when he says some people start looking at Marxism in an almost religious way (looking at you Gonzaloids).

    I need me some VST plugins to fuck around with but I'm not spending ~$100 per plugin. I can find some shitty torrent trackers on search engines but they tend to not have what I want and/or are filled with malware.

    I've been arguing with some people over this whole Ukraine-Russia shit and somebody mentioned this. What was the deal with this? Why did the USSR do this? What are the western history books not telling me here? Also bonus question, what was the deal with the entire resettlement program? Why was it needed?
