the streets been treating you well?
busy working late nights?
busy get greasy?
i got more...
Happy for ya
if I ever get one, it’s gonna cost a right fortune. It would be cheaper for me to just get it made in vrchat or somethin 
bru
Did the bear not give it away? 
im basically suggesting that you sold your body to afford that suit, thats why you said you were "Fortunate"
Interesting. 
Indubitably

Been a hot minute since I've watched that movie. At the very least I still know the entire premise. 
ITS OKAY?!?!?!?!
I bet 
Speaking of cookies, have you all ever tried those Royal Dansk: Danish butter cookies?
Try everything
I'm not into sweets as much as I used to. Trying them now takes me back when I first had them.
They're alright. 
-# For me, at least

Next I made a calculator with Pokoa Pokemon. It can add up to one digit. #PokoaPokemon #PokoaPoke #Calculator Day

I made a counter circuit with Pokoa Pokémon

Hmmmmmmmm. Perhaps they're not as common as they were.
We're doing math in Pokipea now? 
Can't get enough of chocolate
Hmmmm. I've never tried those in all the times I visit Chick Fil A. 
Oh wait, I remember now! 👀
I did 
I remember when Papa Johns did cookie pizzas, chill
Hell yeah.
-# those were nice. 
You obviously aren't supposed to eat them in one sitting, chillruru
Depends, chill, two that come to mind are In-N-Out and Five Guys
I bet it has false positives, chill
If it’s automated it’ll be pretty bad
I remember the time I visited Five Guys when I had a family trip to Florida.
-# It surpassed Wendys in terms of how good the cheeseburgers were. 👀
I like the hotdogs there, chillruru
But I don't think I've had the burgers, chill
The fries are okay, chill, but I'm not too big of a fan of fries these days. It's not that I don't like them, I just like the burger/hotdog more
When I do get fries, chill, I usually just get a small size
The only issue with Five Guys, chill, is that it's expensive
There are false positive hot dogs?
Oh nvm
Do you have these two regulars ignored/blocked, chill? 
Why block Derfo, chill?
In a sea full of 10 thousand people, there's going to be one person that finds a problem with me. 
-# And I don't even know what set em off anyways.
I don't even do much anyways. 
I knew. 
-# just isn't worth my time.
How
I don't think that's odd. The only thing you lose in this situation is being unable to react emote.
I don't really block to get rid of people, chill, sometimes I just don't want to see the content
If I actually disliked the person, chill, I wouldn't interact with that person
Or maybe they'd be dealt with one way or another, chill
Something to note, chill, having someone blocked does not prevent the channel from lighting up when they send a message, which is kind of counter-intuitive
Mac just had its best launch week ever for first-time Mac customers. We love seeing the enthusiasm!

This must be related.

$600 macbook and everyone jumps ship
I'd rather use a Linux distro than use a Mac product, chill
That’s fine
But the biggest winners are Apple and Windows 10. 
So Microsoft is forced to act
I did actually briefly use Linux, chill, I don't remember why I stopped using it, Windows was more familiar I suppose
The hard core enshittification is hemorrhaging users
I doubt this will change the landscape much
There's only like one time I've interacted with a mac computer. 
Congrats to American patriot and free speech enjoyer Afroman on winning his case.
Cheers!
I actually had a Raspberry Pi, chill, I played Final Fantasy 6 on it
Holy shit how do you dislike derfo that’s like saying you dislike malmud or kora
Too soon to say, but it at least illicited a statement
I'm confused.
It also hurts google the most
elicited rather
Chromebooks are a thing
Chromebooks are ass
So are macs lol
Chromebooks are false advertising
So are macs
Macs are literally fine
Also yeah my family made me grow up with mac yeah mac sucks
Just not good for gaming
That shit could run like only base Minecraft and not even tf2
Middle school pushed chromebooks a lot. 
Exactly
-# It's been years since I've used one.
This is why google loses
Cause they’re like 25 cents
Cheaper macbooks mean they switch to that
I see.
Were
They make a good paperweight, chill
So are actual books
My books don’t need to be chrome
Exactly, chill, so what do we need the chromebook for?
Every avenue that attempted to use chromebooks as mere kiosks ends up giving up an switching them out with ipads
All they want is something that can do the job.
Chromebooks literally can’t for any reasonable amount of time
They’re just not good at anything
At least as a kiosk they’re wired

Mhm
Like that Game Boy that blocked a bullet.
There was a gulf war game boy though I might be mixing up what exactly what it survived
blocking a bullet was probably an ipod
I heard of a similar situation but it did not end in survival; a couple decided to record an experiment and see if an impressively thick book could fully block the blast of a rifle/shotgun
the man held the massive book against his chest and had their GF fire the gun to test their experiment, it did not end well
||I've heard of this...|| 
....why
They could've tested it with any item....the point was if the bullet made it through...
There's a reason why people use test dummies, chill
it doesn’t stop there
Test smarties
Well clearly the book didn't, chillruru
The bullet didn't either
I think it's a bit grammatically wrong, chill, but whatever
You knew my meaning and that's what's important, chillruru
Then Prima's gonna say "No, you're stupid and said a stupid you stupid", chill
so I re-read, the couple tested a desert eagle handgun - the book didn’t stop it
and as a result, the GF was charged as a criminal
Is it murder if the victim is technically consenting, chill? Maybe these are the kinds of questions we shouldn't ask though...
A freakin' deagle though, chill...
Huh
It’s assumed the couple was alone so there were no witnesses to confirm, but even if I don’t think that would factor into it
I believe it falls under 3rd degree
Or 1st degree
The unintentional one
I dunno, chill, but I suppose they must have known what they're getting into
IF the book didn't stop the bullet, chill, that is
Why would they do that if they knew the cost of failure, chill, is what I'm asking
It was meant to be a YouTube stunt, they had a relatively new channel at the time
Ohh, chill, that somehow makes it 10x worse
Ima stop talking about it because this story is prolly a bit much, so
the moral of the story is don’t
If it sounds like a risk to your life or someone else's that you care about, chill, you shouldn't no matter how tempting it is
people tend to sacrifice a lot for a chance at online glory
It's simple natural selection, chillruru
Medieval peasant standing behind a large book while his friend shoots it with an arrow to see if it stops the arrow
A book would probably stop an arrow, chill
Emphasis on medieval
They didn't have very many big books back then
Well, they had one, but I don't think you would get away with shooting it with an arrow
Arrows don't have great penetration power, chill, and I doubt bows were really designed with penetration power in mind
If it was a longbow...
That stuff punched through steel and plate mail
I think we're moving the goalposts at this point, chill.
The uh
French found that out the hard way
What, chill, do you want to make the book thinner as well?
you could probably stop a normal arrow without much hassle with like a Harry Potter book or somethin
Next you're going to tell me you're actually using a ballista instead, chill
🫵 YOU🫵
Someone who actually knows how to use a bow, ergo someone who HAS a bow in that time, would easily puncture anything softer than steel
Arrows are heavy, their heads are hard, and when an actual archer lets one loose they go fast

I don't think it takes a genius to see that bullets tend to be stronger than arrows in terms of penetration power, chill
guns have a set amount of force while a bow and arrow is dependent on the strength of the archer
The point is, the practice of having your buddy shoot you with a lethal projectile for clout is an ancient tradition of humankind
I used to be a content creator like you, chill, then I took a bullet to the knee.
it’s like a modern interpretation of the William Tell exercise
except if the apple was a lot further down southward
The moral of the story, chill... humans are notorious for having critical thinking skills but don't put it into practice nearly often enough
Especially not in this day and age, chill
Of course now you have people who just trust the AI to give them answers and so they end up eating rocks
I am very much not a fan of LLMs
Or it tells you the Fly Agaric mushroom is edible. What a trip that would be (if you survive, that is).
I can confirm this is true. Apparently, their latest update broke the difficulty for the worse. It is almost unplayable as a result, at least, that is what everyone is saying.
If they want to keep those overwhelmingly positive reviews, they need to do a u-turn on this blunder immediately.
Seems like it's already lost if all languages are considered
I have no issue with mud not sure I saw much of that kora person
Derfo is rarely here
I can tell you that unless you use a Ballista or explosive arrows, arrows gonna be stopped by thumbcap thick wood or drywalls. Though simple non actual wood like press wood stuff if you use a really strong pound bow maybe it can go through.
Oh someone actually mentioned it.
I mean do you guys think medieval archers just fired arrows for fun, at people wearing leather armor and chain mail that are both much tougher than paper
No unless it hit the actual steel plates that arrow is going through your mail, through your leather, through your skin, and quite possibly through your bone
A book would not stand a chance
I mean there are things that aren't steel that would stop it but none of those things are used to make books
Lets see what happens when an Arrow Vs Books & A Dictionary. BIG Thanks to subscriber perche man 93 for the idea! It's Archery Time!

Fellow Greymanes,
︀︀It has been a little over 36 hours since launch, and we would like to start with a sincere thank you to everyone who has been playing Crimson Desert.

In particular, we are aware of the discomfort many players have experienced with the controls, and we are currently preparing a patch to address this. We also want to apologize for not providing keyboard and mouse players with a satisfactory gameplay experience.
︀︀
︀︀Please know we are taking your feedback seriously and working to improve your gameplay experience as quickly as possible.

It just goes on to say they’ll keep reading the room
DSP gameplay
I heard someone found from game Crimson Desert AI pictures
That’s been going around, I want to see more anecdotes before I post claims.
but allegedly it could have had heavy use in the game.
Proof would be nice
There are screenshots of in game paintings that are definitely AI generated but haven’t seen anyone share locations or whatever (I haven’t dug either)
But people have done much worse to fake this shit so I’m not gonna freak out until I see more people validate it
Weird in steam store not about AI in dev notes
Paintings? Ok, damn. WOW… trash game, I guess? -69/10 rating for ai paintings 
I've heard that the Polish translation is genAI, but no one has provided any evidence or arguments to support this
Aren’t the Greymanes a family in Skyrim
Yes
one win for the EU, in a sea of losses.
Too real
-# Apparently, at least three people think putting a light in an aquarium is only possible via AI
Fish have shadows? Nah, that sounds too unrealistic.
Looks like a creative way to entertain your cat

Has anyone heard about this?
We knew it before his dumbass explanation
What does this change
Shareholders are wrangling his neck cause now those bilions invested into AI have to show results
Obviously its in his interest to bullshit his way about it
It turns out, according to one of the Nvidia engineers, DLSS5 is using the AI Slop filter on a per-frame basis like it is asking the ai to "Make this image more realistic" over and over again. It is not really a graphics improvement. So, in a nutshell, the CEO lied.
But anyway, we already knew this from the get-go even if it wasn't formally stated until now.
corporations always lie
is marketing tactic
reads as unnecessary amounts of stress for minimal gain
When does it not? 
It also doesn't help DLSS5's case it needs two 50-series Nvidia GPU's to work. Considering how expensive they are right now...
I assumed it's 2 to work at the quality and frame rate shown in their demo
So one 5090 you get a crunchy image at 36fps (unstable)
That mean DLSS 5 coming same under 50-series?
it neted me 73k euro in profits shorting it tho
One is for real graphics processing, the other is for running that AI garbage on DLSS5.
73k sounds high
Ray Tracing AI moment
Or you know for most of these games, 1 5090 is the original game at 120-240fps and full resolution
I'm aware of what they were doing but the cards are capable of doing both at once just not very well
If DLSS5 is an example of the future we are all headed towards, I will stop buying games until the morale improves.
im confused did it not come with removable batteries how would you charge it (assuming it cant be charged by plugging it in like a phone)
it is for public companies
the problem with them is they alyways have to make a profit every qaurter for there share holders
its why they are so greedy and use ai for everything cause its cheap
They are trying to push this on everyone. I even heard most game developsers were left in the dark until its announcement earlier this week.
Imagine with support artists cost $100 game
With AI $60 game 
Would you like a normal game or would you prefer organic for an extra $40
by removable, in a way like the ds series and old phoned had it, you could remove batteries without soldering or wiring knowledge, that's what the EU law proposed
Do you want it ad free for an extra $60 or do you want it with ads
To play online multiplayer you need the ad free version and a monthly subscription, also the servers shut down next year
"The device has to be repairable by a common layman"
would you like to rent or buy the game and which version would you like
steam is the only thing stopping ads from being put into games
if it wasent for there tos they would be infested with ads
Mobile games be like
Society is doomed when Gabe dies and his heirs immediately fight over the platform and then one decides to do an IPO
He already has white hair so this is a catastrophe that will occur in our lifetimes
i see his children selling it to a private equity firm
This is a day I will not be looking forward to.
dang, have we gone long enough that ppl don't remember phones had removable batteries 
they still do its just no one uses flip phones
‘PROJECT HAIL MARY’ is Ryan Gosling's highest rated film on Rotten Tomatoes at 95%.
︀︀
︀︀Read our review: bit.ly/DFMary
Back in my day, mobile phones had headphones jacks
You could plug any headphone onto them
I don't look inside my phone so I assumed it was always removable
mine produced in 2022 still does
Cause they lacked “courage.”

godbless Cubot , it's Chinese trash but very nice on ancient features
I still have a lot of Panasonic Slim headphones in storage. I require a bluetooth headphone jack to keep using them these days.
The cowardly dog
i think its the fact its not paper thin that it allows them to put a headphone jack in
just saying, everyone used to rip on sony for making their PSP have proprietary ports, but when apple does it no one argues
Oh people definitely argued
Why tf people talking about me and headphones
But at least Memory Stick is dead
No apple fanboy will say anything against daddy dearest, but android people didn't care enough
apple for some reason has legions of fans
that alyways come to its defense
apple and android both suck tho
You’re the excuse Apple used to get rid of the headphone jack.
google pixel is the best
However, when it comes to batteries, my iPhone 8 seems to be an outlier. Battery replacement kits are plentiful, and there is no soldering required. It's just getting into the phone in the first place is a hassle.
Samsung railed on them for it, but then the very next year did the same thing.
Maybe I’m just tired but I don’t remember this
Well you asked.
No, it’s courage.
God dammit looks like I’m googling this
Oh wait they actually said that what the fuck

Yeah, it’s been a meme for like ten years
Huh, guess I really fucked up by not being for them huh
Whoa! I did not hear anything about this!
Hopefully they will not bomb it like MC Legends.
Its microsoft piloting now, of course they will
I think you mean ||microslop||
I've been calling them micropp on X, now im blocked from commenting on their posts
Its one of the few posts I did on that stupid platform too
The book was good
them fairy tale foxes look like funny little dudes
Man, I read some wacked out story
So this guy, put up a tale about he tries to show women that are around him that he isn't a threat to them, because for whatever reason men should do that
He got in an elevator and a woman stepped in, so he stands in the corner of the elevator away from her and looks down into the corner
From her perspective he looks like a total whackjob
Yeah but women can't read minds
So he comes off seeming like he's a cultist and will use her body parts to summon dagon
how do animals like that sleep that little fucker looks like he can hear a rat fart a mile away
but shut up
Women can't do most things
they can do a lot in the kitchen
They are comforters, nurturers and supporters
Men are for action orientated stuff that needs to be done
Those two things compliment each other
1960s type mindset
just saying
kind of an old mindset
May be
But it worked for thousands of years

The last time I let a woman near one of my screwdrivers she broke it
It's kinda hard to break a screwdriver but it came back from being borrowed, broken
How do you break a screwdriver
Even the shit tier ones just "unsocket" out of the handle at most
Did it snap, did it imposibly bend you just cant bend it back anymore
In two pieces
"worked"
Unless something like the new Jet Set Radio comes out this year, Pokopia is my GOTY.
yeah you arent gonna see many women on oil rigs or construction sites but you do see a lot of women doctors and nurses now a days
yeah, nuturing and caring roles
I wanna see a woman take the position of Governator
not just "nuturing and caring roles" a lot of higher ranking military postions are filled by women
women are more then just care givers
dei hires do not count
what?
dei hires
yeah, and shouldn't
ok?
women can still be in postions of power just because they have diffrent body parts then i do
Acknowledging gender differences isn’t sexism!
he is saying women shouldint be in postions of power at all because they are women
They certainly are not, and they can't pass the men's physical requirements for army, ranger school
Captain Kristen Gries did
There's women in the Rangers lmao
Yeah women are in the rangers, they dumbed down the tests
rage bait
And I'm sure they could pull you to pieces as if you were a soft pretzel
this is rage bait
Yes because i'm sure women can run as fast, lift as much and endure as much as men
they can endure more then men
sure buddy
I wasn't aware men in the army have to give birth
your stuck in the 1950's
Women haven't suddenly gotten as strong, fast and competent as men
type of dude to complain "why do women not like me" then goes around and does shit like this
lmao
Science and facts dont give a shit about your feelings on these matters
i guess he dosent know those facts
a woman can endure more pain then a man and its proven
Can we be stuck in the 90s instead? 
Oh this was aimed at you not him
Any self conscious woman will agree with that statement, even my mother that served in the Russian army till the 90s
you agree that a woman should never be in a postion of power or have any real purpose outside of being a care giver?
Yes please
a lot of women are smarter then you dude
No just the fact that we are different and built for different things, it makes no biological need or sense for a woman to be on a construction site mixing concrete but in management
i said thatr?
Yes because when we give women positions of power and authority they do what, land planes upside down?, jam a boat in the suez canal?, fly a helicopter into a passenger jet?
I like how I don't feel like the biggest boomer in here anymore hahaha
They have their strengths, and it is not having power and authority
but i do see some women out working hard jobs
so yes most women will not be out on a oil rig and shit
but some women do work the harder jobs and they deserve all the respect that men get
So you just proved the opposite of your point, man I need a drink
way back here i said that
please read
No no man, women can do everything men can, so they should be on the rigs in equal numbers earning the big bucks
if they are strong enough to do the job then sure but 90 percent wont be
and thats fine women arent as strong as men
You told me they are
well let me rephrase they cant acheive a level of strength a man can
I'm going to watch some cat videos, lol
physcial strength anyway
Both
Burgers can be good
Treat yoself
Is it a gourmet burger place or a sloppy takeaway
Dairy Queen
Somewhere than doesn't have a teenager flipping a burger, shoving a courgette and some fake cheese on and calling it done
I wouldn't call any place that serves "burgers" gourmet
weird looking burger
My dad would take us to restaurants that pride in fish meals only to ask for Pizza
God bless is ancient soul 3 meters under
your dad is evil
Yeah, yeah he was to most chefs in these fancy restaurants
freddys fucking sucks
salty super flat burgers
from what i found gourmet places are a waste of time and money
they alyways focus more on the "experience" then the actual food
idk why but local places alyways seem to make better food then fancy ass steak houses
I just looked up what "vodka pasta is" im dissapointed someone would actually go to a restaurant over it
You need to be hospitalized
why add vodka tho thats just fucking weird
its like taking something already fine and just putting something else in there cause why not
Anytime you boil food on alcohol it adds a flavor, its an acquired taste people pretend is good
Just like Caviar,lobster and other weird shit we eat as mankind
people tend to use whiskey and brandy yk alchoal with flavor
vodka taste like the doctors office
You must have had shitty vodka then
what is vodka?
Yeah the crappy grain vodkas taste like ass
all vodka taste like ass even grey goose
Ykw I never thought about it, I guess they are kinda ‘chihuahua like’ huh 
because vodka is waterd down ethanol
skal vodka and grey goose taste the exact same
ive tried them both and they are both shit
no flavour but ethanol
because thats all fucking vodka is
Comes from a person that has never gotten potato distilate vodka as history intended
Instead of all the American surrogates using grains in every alcohol
Which is quite frankly a sin
grey goose is from france...
and it taste the same to the american shit
grey goose is supposed to be the top shelf vodka shit
Its so top shelf, me as an alcohol producer haven't heard of it, must be some pretentious ass brand
its pretty big in the states i tried it once taste the same as the cheap shit to me
reminds me of that one time some SWede told me "Vodka is made out of wheat"
not the point of why im saying it point is its possible at least according to google
Yeah but a grain distilate isn't vodka, its something else
Same reason you dont call every cherry ferment "Sherri" but something else
minecaft dungeons 2
Or dont call every fizz "champaigne" and every cheese "trapiste" "parmeggiano" and more
old smokey moonshine type shit
its like moonshine but isint
dont know if you have ever had it
By default every grain distilate is called moonshine, but now thats a bit too broad cause "corn" would be considered a grain as well and it produces a differently flavored product
a lot of people say the process is different and the taste is different compared to illegally made moonshine but i cant say im not a moonshine expert
you know what’s tasty
beer bread
beer taste like shit but beer tasting bread?
16.99 on amazon
there is its called hubba bubba gum its good
there in every gas station and store at least in the usa
I think they go with each other pretty well
society norms
I haven’t had cereal in a minute
Cause society trained us to start the day with quick to consume carbs and sugars for energy
Im still on proteins and fats in the morning
I wont die spending 5 minutes to fry some eggs and bacon, pour myself a mug of yoghurt while im at it
gonna take more then 5 minutes to do all of that and you gotta be at work in half an hour and traffic is a bitch
most people dont have time to spare
gotta get to work
if you only tried cereal the first time recently, I mean idk what that timespan would be, but that does surprise me a little to hear 
Its common sense to wake up early if you want to eat before work
I bring the eggs, seasonings, container, and any add ins to work with me and make it during break xD
unless if someone has an allergy that is
work tires people out
people need sleep to rest there minds most people dont have the luxery of being able to wake up early
I get laughed at often when people come into the breakroom and I'm making myself a full on breakfast xD
I used to do that before they closed the kitchen at work, now i just eat at home before work
it’s off topic room, this is the yapper room anyways 
Il wake up at 3 in the morning when I take the bus at 5 to have a proper meal and pre workout routine for work
try doing that when your 40 years old 5 days a week
I would prefer to eat at home before work, just 2 issues for me:
- I am not a morning person, I wake up late often.
- if I eat b4 8 am, my stomach acts as if I hadn't eaten breakfast by time 8 rolls around x.x
im 35 and work a heavy duty mechanics work,12/16 hour shifts sometimes, keep yourself fit and stop complaining
5 days with weekends off would be a godsend
your body is gonna crap out on you
I tend to fast in the morning
On the contrary im stronger every year
wait 20 years
I hit bench 250 kg january last year, I feel amazing
You could be suffering acid reflux if you wake sick to your stomach.
gonna be 50 year old walking around bent like a L
i work in a hard ware store i see retired people like that all the time
My father carried concrete buckets up a flat ladder in his 50s , I wish I inherit that strenght some day
My belief is if HK is like that at 50, it is because he broke something again xD or was attacked by a machine
Thats what I told my upper management, Im probably gonna die at work and I dont want to hear complaints
Ick, I hate that so much x.x
Last time I had a medicine doing that, drs prescribed 2 more to fix it. They are still yelling at me bc I told them no and stopped taking all >.[
most of the time if you ask them its just a life of hard labor and treating there body like shit working long hours every day having shit lives being unhappy etc do that for 50 years and yeah
if the pay wasn't ass id still be doing it myself
thats a real man right there i would pray i would not have to do that at that age
I don't think HK claims to be unhappy or have a shit life though
HK is too happy to feel depressed KEK
Thats for stupid people
I find happiness in pushing mankind forward, keeping the machinery operational
i know im just saying most of the time they where not attacked by a machine or had some truamatic event happen to them
If I die, I died for believes I care about
That sucks :/ any chance they can try a different medicine to see if it has less side effects?
Ah xD
I am just a complainer to complain
Wish you luck
Whats worse I work in the most ass backwards industry known to mankind too (inefficient), recycling
And i love the tech behind it
someone has to do it
The crazy mills, oversized engiines and overabundance of gears and pulley chains
in the usa recycling is a fucking scam they make it so hard to do it
I don't think I ever noticed you say it was recylcing🤔 explains a lot, the factory keeps trying to recycle you xD
At this point I wish God recycled me and stopped torturing me, 17 revivals is too much man
mk elon musk
I second this.
When it isn't a scam, they make it sp freaking hard to do x.x
we all are gonna be working 9-5 for the rest of our lives
That might be 10 more since the last we spoke
One day I just expect to come to the doctors office and the nurse is like "Uh yeah, you have cancer, God gotten tired of your immortality bullshit" and Im just gonna spend 2 days arguing trough prayers
Nu uh! I'll convince my work for a 32 hour/4 day work week eventually! I just have to keep believing!
with how expensive everything is getting even if you get less hours and less days you will make less money and be stuck in poverty
inflation is crazy
Im doing 6-14, most of time assuming outside seasonal repairs which have me exist for up to 20 hours in the company facility
But the overtime pay is nice
I mean, I would have less hours and less pay. I am advocating for my work to remove 8 hours
Of work time and pay xD
overtime tax is nice
You cant tax something I get delivered in cash in an envelope
oh you work at one of those places
Not easy to do, took me four years before I were self sufficient with enough of a customer base to be comfortable
they are nice but suck in a lot of ways
Thats attributed as a "bonus" idk how American laws work around this, but its perfectly legal here
you sell books?
I paint houses
in a literal sense?
Yes
Depends on the type of company. Smaller businesses can pay out bonuses like that and I believe it lowers the business taxes.
Larger businesses gove the bonuses as an additional paycheck and it gets hit with the same taxes as a normal paycheck.
I know there are more ways, but those are the only 2 legal I know of
Although I suppose both could be called art
Sounds about the same as here, bonuses deduce taxes for companies as it counts (For some reason) as business expenses, and the deduction is 100%
I passed a house where they did that, painted it hot pink.
The neighbors went over in the night and painted the house evergreen
Idk what happened after that.
Man USA is one weird fever dream
PAINT WARS
If someone neared my house and switched paint, they would be swimming upside down in my well till the police arrived
It was an eyesore being that hot pink. And it reflected on all the houses around it.
I don't blame them for doing it, but they should have found a different way
I just don't put any info in xD
I dunno man, if you buy a property, what you do with it isn't anyone else's business, as long as it's not breaking a law
even then is a police matter
a house the most important thing most people own its a status of there place in society and a reflection of who they are via how they design it and its there property that they own and paid an ungodly amount for
hoa's are communist
shit should be in russia
Oh right, USA has these weird self invented organizations
When I finally move, I am going to try to avoid HOAs like the plague.
the eu has shit like hoa's as well
I'm a gun owner so nobody causes trouble around here
The only HOA I would be willing to pay is for neighborhood perks: maintenance, pool, park, sidewalks
An HOA cannot be enforced if it is not part of your contract
I dont have HOAs in the souther to south east europe here, dont generalize me with the pansies like Germany , France and other overly Westernized <Insert censored word for cripple here>
but you get a new hoa president and well
Thats their problem
https://static.vecteezy.com/system/resources/previews/030/618/772/large_2x/hot-pink-background-free-photo.jpg what do people got against hot pink, its not that much of an eyesore
I would be that person that moves into a neighborhood, agrees to the HOA AS WRITTEN. Saves it, and when someone tries to change it, I'll pull out the HOA I have to adhere to.
I'll make that battle hell for them xD
Lawfull procedures are costly in the deep west idk if its worth it
"the deep west"
I dont want to generalize and put Canadians into it, they are normal people unlike the weirdos south
You mean
The United states,
Specifically, exclusively, the United states
If I have the proof, I'll just get a lawyer that doesn't get paid unless they win AND I'll have a clause that the HOA rep has to pay my court & lawyer fees
thats only in certain cases and if its not that case no lawyer worth there salt will take your case
Whelp, time to poof.
I need to spray paint some buckets
I live in the land of lawyer billboards. There are plenty that will take it just for the fun of it
No, I have a feeling you just want to sniff it
ive never heard of a lawyer wasting his time and money just for the fun of it
lawyers around here charge like 200 an hour
I honestly don't think the lawyers around here have anything to do
Im being realistic
You come off as this weirdo that just wants to sniff the paint, not use it
in my state
there is a tax on paint
the only state that has this tax
on fucking paint
it already cost 90 dollars for a gallon jug
I dont work in the chemistry area
But you could be right to something getting to my head from the factory, not sure if its the shrapnels I had to get removed out of my skull last year or the amount of inhaled dust and smoke
Ok, no
I concur, as a seasoned veteran in jousting, I hate spears with a passion, "Ok no" is one way of calling it
They make all the cool weapons worthless cause of the range reach
Just let me use my club and warhammer in peace
And I am a seasoned veteran in casting elemental magic
Fuck your magic, its nothing compared to the power of "bonk"
Grug know, Grug bonk puny wizard
Spears are awesome, the issue was likely the jousting
A fancy game for fancy lads
Also I don't like magic at all haha it was just what came to mind
I just crafted a full magic set in Valheim and I plan on never using it
Remember, Egaite?
It was mentioned here a while ago. It was down for a long time, but now it's back. Turns out an old extension for firefox CAN enable saving the picks with right-click, just like I suspect it would 
Valheims magic system puts me away cause im sacrificing hp for something that might not protect me
I might just use the fireball staff to blow up buildings and set fires
ITs cheaper to block and bonk after
I either parry or I die
Some artwork website
An artwork website mentioned some time ago. It gained traction at the time because it had measures to counteract the use of the images for AI training or stuff.
is it like you’re trying to get the right pitch for something
do it
oh, like a chord?
Do as I do, whistle it out,record it, have midi decide notes in your choice of composer and work acordingly
Otherwise I cant repeat a melody that I heard inside my head outright the same way as I heard it the first time
If it’s a positive dissonant chord you’re looking for you can try something like C, E, G and mix some F# and B into it - basically a C-Major chord with a hint of B
just as an idea

I don’t see why anyone would
It's not a meme

@ich_conor the concept & design was made by lynn brunner, however the 3D model was created by nate blain. Both are actually pretty great artists, but this design didn’t translate well to 3D.

Yeah a bunch of posts beneath it.
But…
We would like to address questions regarding the use of AI in Crimson Desert.
︀︀
︀︀During development, some 2D visual props were created as part of early-stage iteration using experimental AI generative tools. These assets helped us rapidly explore tone and atmosphere in the earlier phases of production. However, our intention has always been for any such assets to be replaced, following final work and review by our art and development teams, with work that aligned with our quality standards and creative direction.
︀︀
︀︀Following reports from our community, we have identified that some of these assets were unintentionally included in the final release. This is not in line with our internal standards, and we take full responsibility for it.
︀︀
︀︀We also acknowledge that we should have clearly disclosed our use of AI. While these tools were primarily used during early production, with the expectation that these assets would be replaced prior to release, we…
…we recognize that this does not excuse the lack of transparency.
We sincerely apologize for these oversights.
We are currently conducting a comprehensive audit of all in-game assets and are taking steps to replace any affected content. Updated assets will be rolled out in upcoming patches. In parallel, we are reviewing and strengthening our internal processes to ensure greater transparency and consistency in how we communicate with players moving forward.
The only kind of review that matters.
“I enjoy the game. Don’t care for the disc horse”
Disc horse 
"We apoligize for the fact that we werent sneaky enough to not be caught doing it, we shall do better in the future to hide it"
I really don’t read that, tbh.
It’s similar to E33 though less experimental and more a deliberate part of the process.
I mean hey, it’s better than doubling down, and they’re owning up to it, that’s better than most
Also wasn’t one of the employees from e33 causing drama by doubling down “our use of AI wasn’t that bad and if you think it is fuck you?”
That was never a thing.
Really? I thought I heard about something like that, but I could be misremembering
It was just sone confusion with the indie awards eligibility
Not that they’re really indie to begin with
I know for sure that they were taken out of like indie award competition, but no I swear one of the employees was like starting shit on some social media I don’t use
Probably just everyone else starting shit
Ughhh, every damn time those people, reek of ignorant and so-called "AI ethical", both of them pro/anti AI :/
Fact of the matter is, yes they used it and yes they intended to pay artists for everything at the end of the day.
So where you draw the line is up to you.
Heat them up and dip them in coffee
Unless they aren't semi sweet, won't have the same effect
I didn't say drink it, I said dip the pancakes!
(It is not for everyone, I just like how the sweetness melds with the coffee flavor)
Waffle house waffles dipped in coffee is really good bc of how sweet those waffles are.
Tiramisu is amazing
If done properly, adding some cold, dark roast coffee to chocolate dessert batters can make the chocolate taste more robust
Neither do I tbh. Tried a cake recipe 2 or 3 times that called for it. It tasted amazing, but the cake couldn't hold itself together
Sausage is almost done o.o
Kielbasa, polish
nvm, I were thinking of kabanossi
It is just a basic sausage. I like it bc it doesn't have a lot of spices in it
🥩
throw everything in the pot and boil together

I'm able to access it. 
Hm, a domestic VPN works so it’s probably just a DNS issue
Looks like a good summary of what we know so far.
You know I listen to a lot of video game OSTs with lyrics
Ok CEO of a gambling site, I'm sure we can base our moral compass in your opinions
And boss fight osts are generally the favorite picks for that
And almost every single one without fail has at least one line of the boss telling the hero to just give up and let them win
And I'm like "there's no way the villain would actually watch the hero get this far and then expect them to quit"
But looking at techbros
Uh
Maybe they will
AI in gambling🤔
I can see them using it to change the odds
"AI will be in everything!!"
->"stop resisting it!"
->"let us put AI in everything!"
They really are just telling us to give up and let them win
Don’t need AI for that.
as if there was a technological war
I honestly think AI is going to be a great tool in the future. I just don't think it is viable now bc it isn't being used as a tool, it is being used as a shortcut without caring about who is stepped on to use it.
Former president of Blizzard, chill, not even the CEO of a gambling site part, his opinion didn't matter from the beginning
Have you seen the craze atm? They "need" AI for everything :p
I pass a business on my way to work and shook my head bc they jumped on the generative AI craze. They fired many workers to replace them with the people that write the strings.
End of last year, their sign is all about how they won't be using AI in anything and they are hiring knowledgeable workers.
Last week, they are hiring more of the AI stribg writers.
(What so you call what they do? When they just combine the strings to generate things)
that sounds like someone who's coercing something illegal would say
The only AI I need in video games is NPC pathfinding ai. 
Although idk wtf he even did in Blizzard, chill, but I don't think their track record was exactly stellar regardless.
Well they also need an AI for decisions generally
I should make some tea
Like I said, it’ll get filtered eventually. 
That'll do.
It'll get filtered to nothing, methinks
Definitely not to nothing
Dust and echoes
That’s just fantasy
The entire bubble is fantasy
There are going to be winners that come out of it.
There are a lot of companies that are forcing their staff to use it.
Yeah the rich guys getting golden parachutes in government bailouts when the entire thing collapses and the entire world is plunged into a recession
I see.
They’re gonna be better of than just that.
They will in fact be wealthier than when they started, making them winners
Capitalizm...

@digitalfoundry The bigger problem you have is John saying he hates AI and everything about it. How can DF not be bias if that's stated so clearly then you post this?
You did your initial reactions and it was excited. Don't apologize or play to the angry mob because of that.
is looks like he hated anty ai people
I've seen some mixed reviews on that game, recently.

Yikes.....that thumbnail
He may as well say he doesn't care about the game, chill, and he'll at least be seen as honest
Ai will just ruin companies who rely on LLM's
Soothing the fickle crowd of investors whose choices are the entire worth of the ai industry, as well as it's capital
If the investors panic then he loses a chunk of his wealth
I have a feeling that 2026 will be AI trending all year long.
So he's trying to damage control and remind everyone that this is the future and it WILL happen
It'll come tumbling down eventually
It isn't about Palworld / Pocketpair, but about that company which decided to do something out of pure greed -- refusing to do follow up on a deal they made by firing people.
Ah, chill, this is about that Subnautica 2 situation
He has no facts or figures to confirm this because reality is starting to shine through the delusion, but it's his money on the line
Always doing your research is a very major requirement.
So he'll do ANYTHING to protect it
It’s been trending since 2022. 😅
I don't think it really has a bearing on Palworld Mobile, chill, in my opinion
I feel as if companies are trying to use AI as a replacement, instead of as a tool for productivity. 
-# Way too many examples of such cases.


Companies fire people to offset the costs of the AI software... and also fire developers who refuse to use the AI software.
Yeah, extreme bait
It's why we have services going down 3 times in 4 months that never went down before
I see.
The thumbnail is baity, but the video is about Krafton and Subnautica 2
Yup, they think they can reduce labor costs by using something that almost works.
Then the bubble pops, chill, and suddenly they're racing to get their employees back
Indeed.
or not (idk what the future coming)
And the people should say "lol, no"
If the bubble pops they wont be able to afford getting employees back
Very interesting seeing a lot of the chaos starting to unfold right in front of our eyes. 
Seen chaos many times
Of course... no embed

Getting their employees back would be JUST to recuperate the losses, chill, that's the funny part
And you say "heck no"
Practically, chill, they'd be done for
Without a trace left.
At least they have seven yachts, chillruru
The judge looked at the facts, and noticed that Krafton changed their reasoning as to why they fired the Subnautica 2 people... Pretty much that judge made them pay... and really pay up.
Get a bailout because they can’t bail themselves out.
Use the bail out money to cash out instead of using it for what they said they need it for
