She literally seems to think the only use for AI is shoving prompts into image generators. Makes you wonder why all those artists in the gaming industry haven't been throwing their sabots in the machines over the last few decades. ![]()

There is another relative recent film about the subject of regret and living different lives that is not Trans allegory:

Is Nepenthe against dynamic lighting in video games? How about real time physics? Or are routines only bad when they mimic human decision making?

Wait what? An effeminate man wouldn’t necessarily still be a person wanting to be a woman. If anything, that idea is perpetuating gender roles and stereotypes.

That's a good point - how do you extricate the output of something like tessellation shaders from the output of the artist who comes up with a polygonal model that uses these shaders, their creation is a function of each other. And it feeds into itself too - the textures the artist creates then influences the tessellation. The technology is baked into the artistic process itself. But then, the artist sets up control parameters and guides the overall look, while the shader automates the process of generating additional geometry and procedural elements not explicitly modeled by the artist. How does she reconcile this? ![]()

Also, wouldn't you never be confused about this? If I was born in the wrong body, I wouldn't have a phase of my life where I was confusedly saying to myself, "I feel feminine, but am I gay? Wait a second, I don't like men" Shouldn't it be extremely obvious you're in the wrong body? I dont wake up in the morning and look at my dick and say, "Oh yeah, I'm a guy". It's self-apparent and obvious what gender i am at all times.

It's almost as if moderation is choosing to highlight their special causes instead of allowing the user like system to show what is actually worthy of attention.

It's fascinating that progressives are okay with it, just like how Nepenthe or whoever can go on diatribes about how Black people are inhuman and be praised for their bold truth speaking.

Holy shit, I still want to see the film but:
Quote:Two years later, Owen's mother Brenda is terminally ill. Owen is unable to watch The Pink Opaque live due to his bedtime curfew and his father Frank deriding it as "for girls", so Maddy tapes the episodes for him to watch later. Owen approaches Maddy to ask if she would like to watch an upcoming episode together. Maddy reveals that she is a lesbian, is no longer friends with Amanda, and has been ostracized at school after a rumor circulated that she grabbed Amanda's breast. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/I_Saw_the_TV_Glow ![]()

Does nepnep even have a job? AI can't put her out of one if she's not working to begin with. Unless AI can write condescending forum posts now it isn't going to take her admin "job" away.

It's fun watching how upset thy get that the rules they advocated for gets applied equally. People like Kyuuji wanted the cunt ban, got it, and then get pissy when the rule applies to them as well. Makes no sense, right?
But this all do makes sense when you realize people like Kyuuji make these "rules" first as a form of social control over the people not in their in-group. The cunt ban was meant for all the plebs outside of Kyuuji's in-group; it wasn't suppose to be applied equally. Certainly not to Kyuuji or a close "ally" like Persephone. These are people in their 30s and 40s engaging in grade school/high school bullshit.

But she's since indicated that she's back working at Rite Aid, which is a lucky break because it meant she can ask the security guard for legal advice regarding contacting the police (ACAB) about The Bire.
