I saw a person on a bus asking chatgpt for directions of how to get to a mall that the bus was going to drop us at it's parking lot ☠️

jolly sky
#

Medical or scientific use, when it's trained on very specific data that can be analysed at many times the speed than humans can? Great use, and infact is being done and worked on currently

The main different of course is that it's heavily private, and also heavily scrutinised by humans

frosty spear
#

My guy they are literally making choices in the prompt and model they choose

strange owl
#

They have no say on what models are available, they can only use what the tool presents to the user

frosty spear
#

They also provide images to the model they want element of

strange owl
#

yes, but again, the tool makes the choices

frosty spear
strange owl
#

yes, but that is copying a style, they could never pass that off as their own

frosty spear
#

They can also train poses and composition into the model if that's the line you want to draw

strange owl
#

You have no say in where it gets the sources, HOW it can create an image in ghibli style. You can only work with what is available

frosty spear
#

They are making the f-ing choice to ask it

strange owl
#

Try copying the style of a lesser known artist.

#

Yes, you can make choices in the confines of what the AI tool allows

frosty spear
#

You can give chatgpt examples to generate from any style by just drag and dropping the images into the window

strange owl
#

But it's still copying an existing style and it's within whatever chatgpt will allow you to do.

frosty spear
#

You can also have it copy the composition and any other chatacteristics

strange owl
#

I would also argue that if they had taken the images from Antireal, input them into chatgpt and tell it to generate something similar it would also be a lesser issue than outright taking the images.

frosty spear
#

And style already technically encompasses composition, construction, color, etc

frosty spear
strange owl
#

Again, I'm not trying to validate AI. I'm arguing that copying is an active choice, thereby making it worse.

frosty spear
#

It the cto of open ai being asked if they train on youtube videos defense

frosty spear
strange owl
#

That choice is not with the artist, it's with the creator of the AI.

#

The AI artist is just being lazy and using a tool instead of doing the work

frosty spear
#

Though there might be a break in communication because I consider tracing more dressed plagiarism than straight up just using someone else work without atribution

strange owl
#

Artistically I absolutely agree. At least someone who copies is doing something artistic.

frosty spear
#

Plagiarism also involves reworking the work in some way manually like a collage of someone elses ideas

strange owl
#

Yepp, like I was saying from the start. It's an active choice, you are aware of the issue and you are hiding the fact.

frosty spear
#

And AI by the same metric is equally worst at the least

#

Then you add the laziness and the disrespect that you couldn't even be arsed to put in some work to actively choose what is being stolen

strange owl
#

If you expand beyond visual art, there are many many other issues with AI though. Like recently it was revealed (by accident) that a writer had prompted an LLM to take their writing and change it to "the style of" another well known writer, in order to "write" a better book.

frosty spear
#

Also teaches bad habits because all artist's steal from eachother and blatantly but what separates a pheraia from a master is the way you steal and mix

strange owl
#

Personally I would just call that lazy. I doubt the "AI artist" cares who they steal from at that point.

#

They just want a shortcut

frosty spear
frosty spear
strange owl
#

Those are the "experts" on social media, not the people doing it commercially

frosty spear
#

The ones doing it commercially are patting each other on the back and screaming it from the rooftop for investors at least in tech

strange owl
#

Yeah, that they are. But they're (usually) not the same people

jolly sky
strange owl
#

It's working it's way into the mainstream in a way that it wasn't before.
It's one thing to generate a funny little image of Thor as a banana man and another if GRRM suddenly decided to use chatgpt to finish up Winds of Winter

#

It's both fascinating and horrible

frosty spear
strange owl
#

I doubt they would ever replace actual Ghibli animations with those generated by the LLMs though

#

I mean they could, there's nothing stopping them, but still

frosty spear
strange owl
#

I know, sadge

#

Although Rothfus sort of made his bed at this point

frosty spear
#

Actually now that I think about it under my moral system it's acceptable to use ai for java and French

#

Haven't had to use any of those two languages for 3+ years now and don't plan too in the future

#

But using ai to disrespect the people actively choosing to use them is acceptibleKEKW

The developer did say they were working with Sony to resolve it

#

Might be a bit of topic. But why do I get the feeling that if you filled these with the mustard Thor like he would actually eat em?

wintry pond
#

whats the mustard ratio?

ocean agate
robust galleon
#

Based on the syringe it looks like it is about 10-20ml.

robust galleon
frosty spear
#

We need to contact Kronos to fill some gregorios with mustard in the batch he will bring ThorKEKW

#

Or a fan going to twitchcon

frosty spear
#

Mostly also because muster is more liquid than the usual cream that is used

#

That is assuming they are yeast doughnuts

ocean agate
#

they look like the type just waiting to get filled yarrBrows

frosty spear
#

If they are cake then they might disintegrate faster

why...the only time i felt regret was when i tried duck.....someone told me lower my head real quick, i did but all i got was a headache...they said i told you , you wouldnt like duck. they where right it hurt

#

and my desk is apparently made of metal

frosty spear
#

I think they didn't make you duck hard enough

ocean agate

#

There is also no bonk(like with a baseball bat) emote

anyone know if Thor has bumped into Esfand's stream yet?

i've never seen this person before. just saw this clip.

#

this can come off confusing for people not from America and not know how are Credit score system works

ember ember
#

Massive W for him

strange ember
#

A credit score is a number, typically ranging from 300 to 850, that reflects an individual's creditworthiness and ability to repay debt.
You'd think that'd be relatively limited... but uh... not only does it affect loans and credit cards and stuff (which also means a lot of vehicles as well), but it also can affect rent, insurance, employment, deposits for things (like utility deposits), cell phone bill...

#

Hey, Fair. Not bad! He should shoot for ~700 to sit comfortably in Good as a goal

#

For reference

tribal nest
#

Khronos stream Pog

blissful imp
#

Question. Will Khronos have a facecam?

tribal nest
#

More importantly, will he wear a wig?

spice dragon
#

look for two dudes in a lemon suit Not hard to spot i think KEKW

vocal tree
#

Even more important question is If Bailey will have a cameo

wintry vapor
#

Thursday is gonna be hyoed. Cant wait for the Dune Vod. Id watch, buuuuuuut....Deltarune

fresh ginkgo
#

June 5th?

#

That's gonna be a difficult day for a lot of people, aint it?

#

At least two exciting things demanding attention

ocean agate
#

June seems like a crazy month for some reason in general

#

for games*

#

June 3rd Guild Wars 2 final part of Janthir Wilds, June 5th new Rune Factory game, Dune early access starts, Deltarune (oh its tobyfox i c.), i think there where like 3 or 4 more big things i heard about

fresh ginkgo
#

I can name one of those

#

Switch 2 Launch Date

ocean agate
#

im expecting oxygen not included to launch the next dlc soon since its in the beta branch and it usualy only there for a few weeks before release

forest glacier
ocean agate
#

june 23 vermintide dlc, june 26th space marine 2, siege update

opal bronze
#

24 hr stream for dune, deltarune possibly, maybe SGF but probably not after 24 hrs of streaming, twitch con debrief, busy stream regardless

golden rapids
#

Hi, it probably gets asked quite often, but I can't see it in here. Does anyone still remember what date Thor said he'll be back from twitch con eu and streaming again? Sadly he didn't update schedule and I forgot what he said last stream 😅

hard jackal
frosty spear
#

Also a bit of topic but has anyone hit thor with the a book is a device to protect and contain information/the writing. As a result a book is a jar

ocean agate
#

but wouldnt that make a jar a soup bowl since the words are chaotic and not in order there by making them soup?

#

unless its a dictionary in wich case its a sandwich

frosty spear
#

But by the information it wants to convey as the metric

#

So it cannot be considered soup

#

And as for the sandwich it wouldn't fit either because you eat the container(bread) that protects all the components

ocean agate
#

are you implying a book cover is not edible......

#

everything is edible, at least once

frosty spear
#

Technically book covers are just paper for paperbacks and for hardcovers there is a bit more variation though nothing too dangerous usualy

ocean agate
#

the bread companies used to put saw dust in bread so a book cover is just flourless bread

frosty spear
#

But they aren't designed to be eaten and there lays the difference

frosty spear
ocean agate
#

uranium wasnt made for tea but assassins still used it as a sweetner for their targets

frosty spear
#

And it was usually punished harshly

tribal nest
frosty spear
#

We stopped doing that even before the middle ages

wicked schooner
#

Dang, didnt know the vocalist of we bury the light can sing in french

frosty spear
#

Don't know how trustworthy this is

ocean agate
#

i dont think Epic would sell so wouldnt matter

frosty spear
#

But I still remember dark sky and still hate apple for buying it

frosty spear
ocean agate
#

oh, misread

frosty spear
#

It happens

#

Plus tencent already owns around 40% of epic from what I rember

#

So for epic yeah it ain't going to sell, it would be a fun resolution for the course case they are having

ocean agate
#

well considering if what i read about Unity origianlly being made for Mac i guess they would be likely to sell to apple

frosty spear
#

Unity on the other hand with all they shenanigans would totally do it and they might make it mac exclusive

jolly sky
#

Lmao making it mac exclusive would literally kill Unity where it stands

frosty spear
#

The new leadership does like money though so...

ocean agate
#

a lot of these companies get passed on to being run by people that are more about the economic side and i get it, a company cant pay their employees on promises and dreams, but sometimes a great narative and good reputation is worth more then a shity reputation for releasing quick cash garbage

frosty spear
#

There fixed it

#

They don't give a shit about employes until it hurts the bottom line, same with reputation

ocean agate
#

i know, thats my point but i feel like originally these companies might have a better vision of hoiw things would turn out and what it turned into is not what they wanted

frosty spear
#

Maybe if the founder is still in charge and or around and they are extremely vocal but even then sometimes the machine doesn't care

ocean agate
#

guess its the saying "live long enough to become the villian" even with companies

frosty spear
ocean agate
frosty spear
#

Technically the system enforces it. There are rulings in the eu and us that a company must provide values to the shareholders and not doing so deliberately would be a breach of fiduciary duties

#

From how I understand it Blackrock is suing unite health because they apparently they have gone soft after the you know what

frosty spear
#

Especially with tech nowadays

#

Uber, lyft, whatever knew they wanted to be the only game around so they artificially lowered their prices to get all the other cab business out

#

AI companies know what they are doing and knew from the start some years ago what their goal was

#

Sure there are companies that become companies by requirement, same way Thor had to and those can be better cause they are build around an actual thing

#

Anyways this more of a tech thing but it's neat we might have gotten a better algorithm than dijkstra at founding the shortest path

opal bronze
#

wasnt that A* or are those the same thing

tribal nest
frosty spear
#

A* is faster in most cases but in the worst case scenario is much worst

It loses one step to greedy on a straight line. And greedy can create absurdly convoluted detours on anything but the straight line.

#

Hardly a worst case

ocean agate
#

This is why you dont react emotionally, i almost clicked the link. always verify and never click the hyperlink, manually go to the page using your usual method and go to your account, there should always be a way without using the email to get you to the notice just in case there is a problem.

strange owl
#

You can also generally long press links (at least on Android) to see where they actually lead without opening them.

#

Or hover over them on pc

ocean agate
#

yeah thats what i did in the screenshot to check the email, it just doesnt show my mouse

hasty grail
#

yes, i did log into amazon website to confirm rather than click the link

opal bronze
#

my spam filter works great, only problem is that it works great

#

so im usually on autopilot when checking emails

#

although that one looks funny and idk why my card would stop working so id hopefully not fall for that

Otherworldly Munchkin: Let's Speedrun the Dungeon with Only 1 HP!

#

the last 1 is all thats important

tribal nest
#

did they really expect that to work?

ocean agate
#

yarrLove Mods so quick

pallid lava
#

What happended?

tribal nest
#

Why would an absolutely random person announce Thor's making a new game before Thor himself??

ocean agate
#

someone put a server invite saying it had something to do with Thor

tribal nest
#

It said something along the lines of

"Pirate Software" is making a new game! Come join us in this dicord server!

#

and it did indeed say Pirate Software in quotation marks

ocean agate
#

legally distinct....bc i added quotes.... (not how that works)

#

or maybe the quotes ment it was pirated

tribal nest
#

I think the bot is just looking at discord servers of game devs, and then asumes the name of the discord server is also the name of the studio, so it uses it to say the studio is making a new game

#

Why the bot thinks it's logical that the studio would make an entirely new server for their game, instead of just using, you know, their already established Discord server, I don't know, but that's probably the "trick" that bot used

ocean agate
#

maybe depending on certain things they might make a new discord, but Thor wouldnt. he does a variety of things on here. but if it was a dedicated discord and they had a new IP i could see a new server

tribal nest
#

Yeah, it does probably work on some people (and that's already enough for scammers), but it's still a weird one to me. Certainly because that's something that would be announced and shared by the devs themselves, instead of just 'some guy'

#

Awesome update imo

#

i think this is cool for youtube. even tho twitch has had this feature for years now

frosty spear
#

I thought I recognized the watering can Thor got

#

Now a better question would be has Thor managed to fill it with still water and test it on all the blank books in his house KEKW

opal bronze
#

He got the same kind of watering can or he got Adam savages one

strange owl
#

I have a similar can, but it's in copper with detailing and from the 50s or so.

serene valley
#

Idk what Thor and Adam savage would talk about but it'd be interesting to see I suppose

#

Their areas of skill dont really overlap

late bane
#

Coincidence?

wicked schooner
opal bronze
#

But your right their interests don't overlap at all

#

Aside from encouraging creation maybe

ocean agate
#

both are big nerds

frosty spear
#

I think yeah they might only be aligning on the go make stuff mentality

#

Different kind of nerds

ocean agate
#

a similie

frosty spear
#

?

ocean agate
#

A simile is a rhetorical device used to compare two things using the words “like,” “as,” or “than.”

frosty spear
#

Intresting

ocean agate
#

i always misspell it, but i looked it up after posting so i can try to fix my spelling

#

i seem to think the "a" is a part of the word and not the sentence structure

frosty spear
#

Anyways the fact that they are nerds doesn't really mean they would have all that much to talk about their interest that the other would also be really interested in

ocean agate
#

true

frosty spear
#

Unless Thor has a hidden love for metal shop youtube that we don't know about

#

That or movie history

ocean agate
#

i could see some movie history knowledge

frosty spear
#

Technically they could nerd about science

#

But Adam is more in the mechanical side of it while from what I've seen of Thor he looks more at the biology research

#

Funnily enough thor and Adam Ragusa would have more in common

frosty spear
ocean agate
#

SPICE

#

yarrSpicy i wonder if its spicy

ocean agate
#

ahahah, run away

#

fear the bonk

frosty spear
#

Whoever made that emote also deserves a bonk

ocean agate
#

i used to think they where al Shaye but when Thor was adding new ones, he gave credit to someone else. i guess on Twitch you can look up the credit

frosty spear
#

Why would I do that? They do deserve a bonk in the mail, but meh too much work

ocean agate
#

oh goodness

#

interesting

darune - sandstone

wintry pond
#

people replaying the last chapter to remember what the story was

ocean agate
#

it just came out today i thought...

wintry pond
#

dont they all share the same game, just different chapters

ocean agate
#

i dont know, i saw a seperate entry for chapters like 5 and 6 or something but i havent played any tobyfox games

wintry pond
#

on steam its all just one game

strange owl
#

I think I played chapter 1 many years ago

ocean agate
#

i guess its 1-4 right now and more will be free updates later on

#

not sure whee i saw the 5 and 6 cant find anymore

wintry pond
#

oh, they made chapters 1 and 2 into a free demo

#

cool

#

I didnt like undertale or deltarune. Gameplay wes not for me, but I do love the story and mechanics

ocean agate
#

fair enough, the game doesnt look very interesting to me, but all i have been playing is an idle game called Trimps lately soo... i would be a horrible base line to rate games off of

#

i just thought the turn out for its launch was interesting

frosty spear

I dont think so, no! slpyLurk I know discord has a habit of not applying things unless moderators do it/apply a role sometimes though (happens in the discord I moderate often enough)

ocean agate
#

not sure how active you are in the other channels but it might be a bug with how many roles you have, you could try reducing them, or there might be a role that is exclusive where it bans people with that role from certain content but i am not a mod so idk

#

i know i have a server i was making for a game i was playing and i had a role called spy to keep people from certain content

covert monolith
#

YarrThink I think the only blocker roles this server has are for the livestream notifs, but you might be right about role amount, Im not sure

#

ohp there we go, I tried again and now it works KEKW thanks discord, I guess

brisk sparrow
#

If it doesn’t work once just try again

#

Discord be dumb

ocean agate
#

....i was writting out a TTS message and was like should i make sure this isnt going to get me in trouble... but i think just the fact that i feel like it needs to be veted means it is probably not a good idea to post. dont want to get banned

#

watching the greyhack vod from a year ago you can tell the stuff inbetween then and now affected his attitude a little

#

not massively tho

#

or maybe just cuz its been a year, who knows

#

i look at stuff i did in 2020 and be like why did i do that lol

opal bronze
frosty spear
#

I think mostly because of the community explosion

#

He got the greggs now but he also needs a vacation

opal bronze
#

i watched about 20 mins of the greyhack vod and caught a couple things that seemed 'out of place'

frosty spear
#

What you're saying we are watching one of the clonuses with a wigKEKW

opal bronze
#

man that clone had way more whimsy than this clone!

#

when will we get a software update

opal bronze
frosty spear
#

And that takes a toll

opal bronze
#

that too

frosty spear
opal bronze
#

yeah but not like that

#

you look at people like markiplier and stuff and you're like ok whats going on here thats different

frosty spear
#

Meh if you look at it for all major youtubers they all had it in one way or another

opal bronze
#

true, you'll always have haters no matter who you are

frosty spear
#

It's the odd ones that doesn't happen too

opal bronze
#

its just the size in relation

#

ive said it before when it was more relevant but dr k picked up on it during the talk they had

frosty spear
opal bronze
#

thats a good point i suppose, he's not a streamer so there's less accidents to pick apart

frosty spear
#

Thor on the other hand streams 12 hours a day being asked the weirdest shit someone could imagine on the spot

opal bronze
#

you never get what someone truly thinks at the end of the day when its live it will come out without consideration of all the moving parts, so it rubs wrong

#

unless its a really bad statement thats indefensible

#

but like in general

brisk sparrow
#

Whenever markiplier is trending on twitter, he was either in the hospital, or he was trending because no one knew why he was trending

opal bronze
#

i couldnt do streaming for one because id probably say some shit, not meaning it that gets me in deep water

#

if i had any traction at all

#

stressful ass job being a public figure that is not at all apparent to all the kids wanting to be youtubers

#

dont blame the vtuber explosion, or people being faceless before vtubing

frosty spear
#

There is also that Thor presents himself is I don't know how to put it so it doesn't sound like one of the dramatuber

opal bronze
#

i know what you mean

#

to me its clear why its lasted but thats cuz i have the outside perspective

frosty spear
#

Not condescending exactly but the giving of advice and then the cutting of the surrounding context(well more goofy parts) for the shorts paints him in an interesting relation with everyone he interacts on stream

opal bronze
#

yeah, i can see how, ive known people ive shown his content to that it just rubs them the wrong way

frosty spear
#

He still rubs me the wrong way, but I'm here for the entertainment so meh

#

But mostly cause I come of in a similar way to the people around me that I interact on a daily basis

opal bronze
#

i dont see it personally and thats probably why, im fine being told what to do or info because its all just learning material to me

frosty spear
#

It's not that exactly

#

It's a mismatch in the role that people giving advice usually fall into

opal bronze
#

yeah im handwaving a bit

frosty spear
#

Thor falls outside most of the common roes you encounters in you day to day

opal bronze
#

also the explaning lacks for a better word.. vulnerableness sometimes

frosty spear
#

But falls real closely to some people you encounter on forums

opal bronze
#

not even a word, but i mean like if i explain something to someone i will litter it with "i think" "i heard" "probably"

#

makes it less of a divide when im explaining, like im just passing on not telling

#

thor... doesnt do this as often as id like lol

#

and it does suck its that fickle with people sometimes but its just how it is

#

not the whole reason ofc

frosty spear
#

Not strict enough to fall under the role of an instructor, he has knowledge and experience but at least to me he doesn't fall under the veteran role and with the moments of levity cutoff and the kind of advice he is asked for he doesn't fall under the friend/family role(which is good he doesn't)

What is it used for

wide zealot
#

Can you practice malware attack on it

opal bronze
wide zealot
#

Great, tysm for replying
Huge respect

opal bronze
#

also its in the game greyhack, not an actual irl tool

#

just in case

#

i love when thor plays puzzle games because its like a meld of emotional and logical

#

he solves the puzzle and you watch his emotional reaction, while simultaneously showing his logical skill at it

frosty spear
#

And I now realise out of the three big software youtubers/streamers I watch occasionally only Prime doesn't trigger any automatic response of distrust when giving advice

opal bronze
#

exactly dude

#

i made this comparison

frosty spear
#

Theo has the same problem as Thor

opal bronze
#

prime does the same thing as thor, but doesn't have the same sort of hate thing for him

frosty spear
#

Prime just gives me the vibe he is happy to be there and doing thing no matter what

opal bronze
#

and its not just the lsf stuff even before then there was this animosity i could see

opal bronze
frosty spear
#

He is expressive, exited and jumping around most of the time

opal bronze
#

everything he explains usually leads into a bit he's got set up

frosty spear
#

And proud to do it I guess

opal bronze
#

its all about relieving tension in a convo

#

push and pull is a more informal term but ive heard before

#

push in this context is like deeply explaining something and basically vomiting all the knowledge you have about it out

#

and a pull would be "well actually idk about this i could be wrong lol"

#

or something that just lets the other person relax for a second

frosty spear
#

Anyways it's 5 in the morning here, I think I'm done for today about psychoanalysis youtubers

opal bronze
#

so true

#

i find the whole thing really interesting but im not a brain doctor by any means

#

because its stuff that ive learned being someone with autism, that's worked and made life easier

frosty spear
#

It's mostly that the people that you would meet in real life that give the same energy as Theo and Thor and would answer questions tend to be the um actually guys from my expirience

opal bronze
#

i can see that lol

#

not the truth obviously but someones first impression i can understand it

frosty spear
#

Both Thor and Theo do seem to actually like to answer question for the sake of sharing knowledge rather than to impress or asert superiority

#

But the presentation is the same

opal bronze
#

especially if that first impression is handcrafted by haters to highlight all the bad stuff

frosty spear
#

So eh...

opal bronze
#

yeah

#

i dont watch theo i cant speak on that

frosty spear
#

The human brain likes to stereotype and if you present yourself as a stereotype to some people is pretty hard to get out of that bucket

opal bronze
#

but yeah i can tell thor is very built for corporate environment, every paint presentation was probably a banger

opal bronze
frosty spear
#

Well he was chosen by the spirit animal which group name is called a business

opal bronze
#

so true

frosty spear
opal bronze
#

yeah

Hey fun thing you can do you can stereotype yourself in someone's mind for whatever social engendering goal you want

opal bronze
#

explain

frosty spear
#

And less fun fact you nay also be doing this unconsciously

opal bronze
#

what like being self conscious

#

"these people think im x and y"

#

kinda thing

frosty spear
# opal bronze explain

Well if you go up to a reception desk with a food delivery pack on your back nobody is going to ask you too many questions

opal bronze
#

oh right like if it walks like a duck and talks like one

#

thor actually talks about this in a social engineering short

#

if you act like you're in a hurry you can just get into places usually

#

holding a clipboard or whatever

#

if you act frazzled, like if anyone stops you they are going to get into more trouble than if they let you pass

frosty spear
# opal bronze what like being self conscious

Not really, if you don't want to be somewhere for instance or with a group of people there are some pretty good chances you'll change your behaviour so you'll be rejected by that group

brisk sparrow
#

Remember: high vis and a clipboard can get you a lot of places if you’ve got the confidence

opal bronze
#

man im doin that right now

frosty spear
#

Pretty much

opal bronze
#

thats a compatibility thing though, surely everyone does this to some extent

#

like its me but ive just tweaked the firewall settings

#

"yes maybe dont send that but do talk more like this"

frosty spear
#

You're still acting different from baseline

opal bronze
#

idk where you'd even set the baseline at

frosty spear
#

Depends

opal bronze
#

would be how you are with family or if you have more fun with friends, thats where you'd say "yeah thats truly me"

frosty spear
#

I personally go by would you still do this this way of you had 0 external influence

opal bronze
#

that makes sense

#

so just how you act alone then

frosty spear
#

Yes and no

#

You can act with 0 external influence in your behaviour while also being in a group of people

opal bronze
#

nah man if you're in a group you're always being influenced

#

if i was talking like they werent even there that would be 0 influence right

frosty spear
opal bronze
#

like ill speak less in a group because people are talking and also the less people i know the more cautious i am

frosty spear
#

Some people can't interact with others if they don't change the baseline

opal bronze
#

true, but you'd never hang with people that you had to basically be a different person around and be happy with it

#

but also id never use personality A with friend group B

frosty spear
#

Eh... I usually talk towards people rather than with them so meh

opal bronze
#

whats the difference

frosty spear
#

Udp vs tcp

opal bronze
#

oh right

#

you just speak without expecting a response

#

thats the most nerd shit to explain that and i hate that i instantly understood lmao

frosty spear
#

I speak without expecting people to listen or care for their responses unless they further the conversation

opal bronze
#

i sorta do the same much to my detriment sometimes, i will just yap about something forever and not really care if the other person is listening

frosty spear
#

I do somehow manage to keep people engaged thought that's mostly cause I'm flexible in the topics I can talk about

opal bronze
#

yeah well i imagine anyone who is engaged with something they dont gaf about is just being nice and humoring me

frosty spear
#

You can ask and gage the response

opal bronze
#

also guilty of that so i figure thats what other people do

opal bronze
#

i know few people that i can joke around with but also can be serious

#

but not none so thats good

frosty spear
#

Like a "I hope I'm not holding you up, because you've been quite for a bit"

#

Give them an out and see if they take it

opal bronze
#

yeah if i notice im going on too long ill just be like "but anyways"

opal bronze
#

you gotta give an out

#

otherwise people can feel 'cornered'

#

turns a convo into an interrogation

frosty spear
#

Which leads me to I'm going to go hit the sack

opal bronze
#

which actually is not a realistic metaphor because they do that all the time in police interrogations

#

ok man ill see ya

thor got a tts about when exp 33 vid is coming out and he autocorrected it in his head to something else lol

like someone was suggesting a dlc or something for him to play

I think he heard "When will you play it again" which he replied to

#

Ie, he might

opal bronze
#

said he'd look into it

#

doesn't make much sense with that context

#

either way he locked in on dune

He'd look into playing it again. He wanted to since he still has a lot of optional stuff to do.

hmm

IDK why but I find it pretty funny that Thor's favorite weapon in destiny 2 is called thorn

opal bronze
#

had to put a whole tts explaining mango drink because it seems there's some confusion in chat but he probably wouldn't like it, too sweet for him

#

raspberry drink is alot more tart there's a chance he'd like that

#

there was at least one person like "this doesn't exist" because he never seen it, feel like i must have the secret menu or something

big win for bean and cheese melt though he said that was his favourite

@minor nymph Watching the Dune stream from last night and about an hour in you started talking about paper shredding and shredder services.

Well I used to work for an employer that used one of those services and one time someone put a laptop battery inside one of those bins to dispose of it.

For those who don't know the bin is for paper only and has a slot for just paper to fit and only the collection drivers and my management has a key to get into the bin.

They take the bags to the back hatch of the collections vehicle, an armored truck, to be shredded.

Apparently this happens often as when the truck started on fire the driver knew exactly what it was that caused it.

I think im gonna stay neutral and took no side until someone post some fact check
But if even some of the allegations are somewhat true its pretty damming
Even if it happen 6-7 years ago

kindred holly
#

I'm going to wait to hear from Thor but.... I really don't know what to think. Some of this is pretty damning.

frosty spear
#

Only read the reddit comments and the whole thing sounds so stupid from the broad strokes there

#

It's loosing some nuance

kindred holly

Well reading reddit comments is your first mistake /j

#

I was reading from the Twitter thread before.

#

Theres things I don't fully understand so I'm gonna go over it again when I have a chance.

proper phoenix
#

I read the whole thing
There is some damming part but some of the allegations are somewhat exaggerated

frosty spear
#

Meh... Don't have a twitter account and from the sound of it it wouldn't really be worth a read

proper phoenix
#

But i would still prolly advise everyone to take no side until all the facts are checked

frosty spear
proper phoenix
frosty spear
#

But my usual metric is as long as it's between consenting at the time adults everything is a learning experience of sorts for both parties

#

And so it ain't my problem or concern

#

From what I gather the ages are 20 and 31 both fine ages for learning lessons so eh

proper phoenix
#

Its just a 20 and 31 so at worst its just a relationship drama

#

But abusing is a very damming allegation so im hoping to see all the fact checked out until i have any opinions of it

#

Atp its best to stay neutral and take no side until all is cleared

kindred holly
#

That and there's a possible cheating aspect to this too. I feel gross seeing old relationship drama but if that's also true.... Its still really shitty.

#

Again, I'll have to look over this again to make sure I'm understanding their side.

#

It is gross that the accuser leaked the name of his ex wife, apparently

#

Autocorrect, I stg

frosty spear
#

And how would that affect you? He might have did something shitty. Well did he do it again after? Did he learn something from it. Does it matter to what he is doing now. He is human and being human is to learn

#

And same for the other person. Did they learn anything from the experience or not

proper phoenix
#

Thats just being disingenuous no ?
Chalking down the whole allegations as just a "learning experience"

nova bough

read the whole thing. just looks like a relationship that went soutb

proper phoenix

True or not saying those type of allegations that involving abusing/ manipulation is just a learning experience is kinda shitty thing to say

I don't know if these allegations are true but if they are then it's shitty as all hell.

I ain't believing anything sexual abuse related. Far too many people get falsely blamed for it.

This was in like... 2020ish and it's just now coming back out because I'm an easier target with a larger platform now.
It didn't work then and based on the internets reaction it won't work now.

Kind of broke down to "if this is true who gives a fuck" and "if this is untrue who gives a fuck" in terms of reactions then.

When this originally happened several of our friends -who were hanging out with us the ENTIRE time at twitchcon- spoke up about it and how weird he was, like they asked me if I was dating him because he was all over me nonstop

It doesn't make sense that he is claiming financial abuse when he was refunded both the 800 and 3k from kickstarter

Like he didn't lose any money, so how can he claim he was abused/scammed by you two?

Something that's really f-ing gross I've noticed is that he claimed that you were pursuing him while you were married and leaked either your ex's actual name or someone else. No idea if that's actually someone's actual name or not.

# kindred holly Florescent?

so I followed the esport side of valorant
recently, some allegations of sexual misconduct were alleged against florescent, a trans player in the game changer scene who recently got promoted to tier 1 circuit.
but the document from the victim lacked receipts about the alleged misconduct. The whole document are just full of recollections of past events, quoted texts, but no screenshot of said text or communications.
Flor came out with a response later will full receipts to refute the claims, and then the victims deleted the twitter account that posted the original allegation document.

The Lacari shit actually sucks.
We did a bit the day before about a dagger.
Roleplayed it all out and it was funny.
I was continuing the bit the next day and it upset him and I had no idea.
Never knew he was mad until I saw a video of him yelling FUCK PIRATE SOFTWARE and ripping a poster.

dang thor, i can't believe your dad has that much power to get you into the DoE KEKW

That "bullying" was literally a continuation of the dagger bit.,

idc if its a bad person, you're just bringing more attention to them. if the drama is agaisnt false claims then you are just being an ass

I think the danger of these videos is both massive content creators are criticising you for half of the video, even if their arguments are flawed, and then the comments all latch on and criticise you further
