Nobody needs your approval to post. Don't like it? Don't post in it. Ignore the thread. You have options.

AI art is absolutely trash and ends up destroying creativity. Sure, this might be just a couple of joke pictures but it's a gateway for AI art in games, movies and music.

What does "rigid ideological demands" do for creativity?

photoshop is creativity-destroying trash, where's the tactile feeling of the paint slathering across the canvas, the knowledge that there is no "undo" button? the temptation to put some other art on a lower layer and trace over it is far too high, you can't assume that anything made with photoshop is a pure product of imagination

YES YES YES WITH YOUR WHOLE ASS, DICK, N BALLS.  SAY IT FOR THOSE IN THE BACK PLEASE.  SAY IT WITH YOUR ASS FOR THE WHOLE DAMN CLASS.  THERE IS NO ETHICAL CONSUMPTION UNDER CAPITALISMO.  WE ARE THE DUSTBORN.



 
You refuse to stop participating in freely giving them your data by quitting twitter (or anywhere else), and you somehow think your data and the infrastructure used to manage it will be magically redistributed in a communal trust or something.  You can't even do the first thing because of your thought-stopping "consumption can't address inequity in capitalism".  What a great strategy.  Taking no accountability in your own actions and then bitch all day about how the whole system is evil and broken.   Great life.  I'm counting the days until you participate in that pod, Nepenthe.  I will be watching you.

Grummz is 56!? Lmao.

Meanwhile majority of Ree are near their 50s and look how they behave 

[Taco Bell Tower]

it's extremely funny to clock who has watched the video and who hasn't

Eimi

People coming in here, ignoring the video, not even doing due diligence on the subject matter of the video, just coming to tell everyone how much they loved Stellar Blade and why it's a good game.

I bet they didn't watch the clip either.

if code doesn't even need to be written by humans anymore, if it's so easy, then guess what - the means of production are more in your hands now than ever before! fucking go to copilot and say "write me some forum software," host your own server, and make your own platform! it's never been easier!

or maybe you'll learn quickly why corporations make some of the decisions they do, the temptation of selling your users' data (just ask benji)

[Propagandhim]

She acknowledges that code is part of the tools of production, and yet all people have access to the same AI that multinational corps have access to.  ...and yet, she's anti-AI.  She covets her ability in art granted to her because she could spend time working on and achieving skills in a craft that other people don't have the time and resources or privilege to pursue, in a privileged environment that would even reward her for having it. Hrmm, I'm beginning to think Nepenthe's miserable worldview has no real common thread between any points of her rationale.

and this

But I have talked to Trump voters and conservative leaning folks about various political issues regardless, and part of my ability to make some headway with these people is to not let my assumption (or even correct observation) of their abject stupidity get in the way of talking to them like a normal human being. It doesn't matter that I'm Black and non-binary, and thus I'm entertaining the conversation at a disadvantage.

I can internally pull my hair out when they say some dumb shit, but in the moment if I'm trying to get someone to see the flaws of capitalism, I need to respectfully and without judgement walk them down the road by both acknowledging their pain from capitalism as real, but then redirecting it at the right target. And most times I'm relatively successful in teaching someone about economics, or queer issues, or about Africa, or whatever it is we're talking about. If I can get someone to go "Yeah, I see your point," even if I haven't changed their entire political worldview, I've still won.

I am largely speaking in a manner regarding the act of politicking, however I don't mean any of this to only apply to a formal campaign. I am chastising this forum because most of you are refusing to follow the lessons of the civil rights leaders you supposedly champion and hold in high regard, which is that you need to fucking organize. To organize, you need to stop thinking you are so intellectually above your neighbors that they aren't even worthy to be spoken to. You need to start forging bonds and lifelines with your community so that you all can rely on each other when shit hits the fan. You need to realize where there are moments of clarity and commonality that you can pounce and capitalize on.

LinkedIn posts are self-aggrandizing and performative and I'm willing to bet some people are so addicted to the cycle that they just can't help themselves. And let's be honest almost all social media is that, but it's corporate flavored so it's really sad.

[Polident]

I use to wear new balance's 

What did New Balance do?

They fund the republican regime

Of course that's not why I stopped wearing them. Switched to Skechers for now. Finding a brand that supports size 10.5 4E is a pain in the ass because I'm completely flatfooted.

Happened to be looking at wider shoes recently and I think 880 or 1880 was 4E. Everybody seems to wear New Balance here but shops sell regular or 4E. Regular wide/2E are an anomaly. If you don’t mind looking like Sora from Kingdom Hearts, barefoot shoes are good options.

I need to throw something hateful in here to keep up this forum’s rep. Uhh. Women tend to have smaller feet than men?

[AnnoyedCanadian]

I think the Cybertruck is dumb but I honestly could give less of a shit about what vehicle people drive. As long as you are a good driver and competent behind the wheel, that is all that matters. Along with the car being inspected regularly and having tune ups.

Sexist nonsense.

Every woman I've ever been with has had massive feet.

And massive hands.

And rather broad shoulders...

[Snoopy]

For sure, there's something about the forum structure here that prevents true green text greatness from happening.

There's no mystery here. It's a forum controlled by humorless freaks.

[Eric Cartman]

I really don't think it's a good thing that we're just going to have two entirely separate social media platforms for different political parties. This is just going to create further echo chambers, further division, and further escalation.

ResetEra was literally created for this exact reason when it broke away from NeoGAF when a lot of members weren't happy with the right leaning direction of NeoGAF and its owner twice admitting to sexually assaulting women.

That's not quite how I remember one of the biggest traffic drivers towards the HRC campaign pre shower elf getting metoo'd

[Eric Cartman]

Was watching a YT video going over some creepy Reddit postings so I had to ask. Anyone remember any?

I'm a bit confused why a review of the game is even part of the video. Seems kinda besides the actual topic

I think it's to show that SB isn't worth the performative rallying around in any sense. It's a sexist grift top to bottom.

"There was no stellar blade outrage but also let me make a 2 hour video to declare the game being a sexist grift"

[Stonehenge]

I feel like learning from your fellow folk, is way more important that learning from history.

“Ally” will be the word of 2025 that will absolutely be mocked more in the mainstream.

Resetera and their ilk think being an ally means agreeing with everything they say and do, and if you oppose one viewpoint while agreeing with everything else they will say you are not an ally. Also they will point out that "wrong" opinion for a long time, even when one agrees with something they agree with. "Remember when he said that, yeah not an ally" even though the context is different and they agree with the opinion.

[Besticus Maximus]

That Shaun lad is a mewling scouse bellend, basically bending over and showing his arse for whatever is the terminally online outrage of the day.

Like I said, is typical OldGaf/ERA behavior:

“There was not outrage for this game, and let me tell why is a shit game anyway.” 



God forbid anyone playing it and making their own opinions.

Also what is 'ISL' like a group home for tards, or?

poor bastard. properly disabled in some way and probably led astray by other internet focused shut-ins. now i feel bad for them

[Jansen]

All of a sudden they're trans now? Maybe being terminally online and having that as your only social outlet is bad for you.

Spoiler:  (click to show)(click to hide)

[Jansen]

Anyways when you're dealing with a family event and you try to make everyone bend to your will it typically doesn't go well.

Personally if it bothers them so much I just wouldn't go.

[Propagandhim]

Maybe I'm sadistic, but I don't understand how you can't just "fake it" until you move out of the house.  You lived this long without knowing you were trans, upon discovering it, why does it have to be an urgent thing for you to push on your parents?  Just don't bother them with it.  Go ahead and think you're a woman or whatever, and just accept that they call you Billy until you leave the house.  Why does this have to be so hard?

Well this particular poster doesn't even live at home.

For someone like malds, they're just fucked because they have zero desire to improve their life and live on their own despite repeatedly stating that they hate their "abusive" parents

[Propagandhim]

So what's the issue?  Just let your parents live their life.  It's not affecting you.

Then you can't post about it on Ree and get backpats from such luminaries as Kyjuui, ClickyCal, and other folkx with pedo anime avatars.

Logging off the internet would do this person so much good, but they wouldn't get the instant communication they desperately want and need.

Edit- I can't wait for thanksgiving. We talk football, video games (not complaining about boob physics), get drunk, watch Twilight Zone. I dont even know my family's politics and it's better that way.
