How could i know what you do in your spare time? You haven’t shared it until now. I can only go off of what you’ve said on this thread, and I do not retract my criticism of it. This will be the last response, so I hope you have a good day and thank you for making a difference in the world.

I can understand that perspective, but I also think you’re making a lot of assumptions about whether this was effective or not. Based on your original comment you don’t know, so I’m just encouraging benefit of the doubt instead of shitting on things for not being perfect.

Maybe as an activist yourself you could get in touch with this organization in the post and suggest some more effective methods for what they’re trying to achieve? That would be practicing what you’re preaching instead of just leaving comments online. Just my 2 cents, and I wish you well.

I say this respectfully, but has making negative comments about people trying to do good and educate others ever improved the situation?

I think it’s easy to be jaded right now, I struggle with it myself, but remember that this kind of knee jerk criticism is very deflating for some people to read. You might feel like it’s an outlet for you, but it can cause others to feel hopeless and depressed.

I don’t believe you want that, so I would encourage you to be more supportive of attempts at change, not just results. Changing hearts and minds is a long and imperfect process.

This seems like a really smart thing to do. Meet people where they are.

I also enjoy the fact that things like this probably make these massive corporate platforms sweat a little. People always find ways to subvert and I’m here for it.

MMOs have main quests usually

This is something I’ve wanted to see explored a lot for years. Excited to see a big studio trying it.

If you ever have to open a command prompt, you’ve already lost them.

I’ve seen a lot of very tech savvy people still using google and chrome to this day. It’s the top search engine. The majority of people use it, including pirates.

I felt the same way. I turned it to easy mode and enjoyed the visuals and story. Good riddance to the combat frankly.

I don’t just em dashes, I also use en dashes. Take that, robots!

“It” 🤔

Ah, I see. I wonder how convoluted that’s going to be in a few years 😅

I didn’t know people could post on defederated instances

Never played it.

I’d say based on his last 3 songs he is now fully political. I mean we’ll see what he does next, but Hind’s Hall 1 and 2, and Fucked Up are all super political and powerful songs.

I’m too old to say what anything this generation is, but look up “fucked up” by Macklemore. Came out at the start of the year and it’s the most rage against the machine esque thing I’ve heard in years. Got me riled up.

Edit: I see you literally called him out in the post, so this is old news to you I’m sure. I’ll leave it for others to find!

Is there much depth to that? I’ve found in the past they keep adding new systems, and each new one has exactly the same issue of being another thing that’s not super deep. And by deep I mean full of surprises and things to learn, not you can technically do it for a long time.

I’ve tried to get into it periodically. I like aspects of it, but it’s also very bland in some ways I find. Like there are infinite cool planets to discover, but the resources are more or less the same on each and across the whole thing. There’s so much to see, but so little meat on the bones I guess?

I need a bit more pulling me forward than what that game gives you I think. The phrase “wide as an ocean, shallow as a puddle” has been my experience with it unfortunately. I know a lot of people like it these days, though.

GTA. I’m a SciFi and fantasy guy so it just doesn’t do anything for me.

So in my opinion ai gen images are basically the opposite experience of looking at good art.

A good piece of art has loads of details and nuances that came from the artist’s taste and vision. The longer you look at it the more there is to appreciate. You keep finding new details you missed as you study it.

Ai gens are the opposite. They look fine and competent at a cursory glance, but the longer you look the less meaning you find, and the more defects you discover. Personally I believe this is why they feel so wrong to look at for any length of time.
