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

Oh nvm

Do you have these two regulars ignored/blocked, chill? chikipisus

sacred mango
#

I don't think that's odd. The only thing you lose in this situation is being unable to react emote.

dusk quartz
#

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

I'd rather use a Linux distro than use a Mac product, chill

My books don’t need to be chrome

dusk quartz
peak folio
#

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

cobalt briar
#

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

humble parrot
#

....why

#

They could've tested it with any item....the point was if the bullet made it through...

dusk quartz
#

There's a reason why people use test dummies, chill

cobalt briar

it doesn’t stop there

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

cobalt briar
#

so I re-read, the couple tested a desert eagle handgun - the book didn’t stop itmono_yumcha and as a result, the GF was charged as a criminal

dusk quartz
#

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...

cobalt briar
teal iron
dusk quartz
#

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

cobalt briar
#

It was meant to be a YouTube stunt, they had a relatively new channel at the time

dusk quartz
#

Ohh, chill, that somehow makes it 10x worse

cobalt briar
#

Ima stop talking about it because this story is prolly a bit much, so
the moral of the story is don’t

dusk quartz
#

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

cobalt briar
#

people tend to sacrifice a lot for a chance at online glory

sacred mango
#

So many examples of "clout chasing" now a days...

#

-# Are we doomed?

dusk quartz
#

It's simple natural selection, chillruru

sacred mango

teal iron
#

Medieval peasant standing behind a large book while his friend shoots it with an arrow to see if it stops the arrow

dusk quartz
#

A book would probably stop an arrow, chill

teal iron
#

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

dusk quartz
#

Arrows don't have great penetration power, chill, and I doubt bows were really designed with penetration power in mind

teal iron
#

That stuff punched through steel and plate mail

dusk quartz
#

I think we're moving the goalposts at this point, chill.

teal iron
#

The uh
French found that out the hard way

dusk quartz
#

What, chill, do you want to make the book thinner as well?

cobalt briar
#

you could probably stop a normal arrow without much hassle with like a Harry Potter book or somethin

teal iron
#

If you're firing a weak arrow, maybr

#

Like
If YOU fired the arrow

dusk quartz
#

Next you're going to tell me you're actually using a ballista instead, chill

cobalt briar
#

🫵 YOU🫵

teal iron
#

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

sacred mango
dusk quartz
#

I don't think it takes a genius to see that bullets tend to be stronger than arrows in terms of penetration power, chill

cobalt briar
#

guns have a set amount of force while a bow and arrow is dependent on the strength of the archer

teal iron
#

The point is, the practice of having your buddy shoot you with a lethal projectile for clout is an ancient tradition of humankind

dusk quartz
#

I used to be a content creator like you, chill, then I took a bullet to the knee.

cobalt briar
#

it’s like a modern interpretation of the William Tell exercise

#

except if the apple was a lot further down southward

dusk quartz
#

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

teal iron
#

Of course now you have people who just trust the AI to give them answers and so they end up eating rocks

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

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.

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

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.

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.
