It was also before the invention of hypersonic missiles, so the outcome would be even worse now. I don’t think Iran has them, but I wouldn’t doubt China or Russia would provide them.

Their friends died in Mariupol and they said “not gonna be me bud”

I like how it says threaten. Fuckin do it bitch, you know it would be the only thing to get people off the couch and into the streets again. As much as we talk shit about the electoral system, taking Joe Biden off is pretty much the thing that will tell everyone in Texas that Greg abbot is basically the president of Texas, and everyone hates that guy. No more democracy, not even the illusion.

And it would have ended with exactly the same outcome that we're going to get now

Not really. Ukraine would have been able to retain the Donbas and they wouldn’t be living in a wrecked nation with a trillion dollars in destroyed infrastructure. Russia was basically only asking they stop attacking the Donbas, recognize their rights, and Russia would retain Crimea.

Brother that’s not going to happen. Russia is taking a big fat 21st century shit on Ukraine right now.

It’s almost at the level of “just make a good movie” ridiculous.

This mf said enjoy digging as if they’ve ever had to pick up a shovel and dig to make a living.

Literally the only song that’s made me cry.

Meaningful relationships take time and a lot of work to maintain. They involve trust and understanding each other. Messing with this thing for even one second is not worth the time or effort even if it does say it loves you because every second spent on it is one second wasted that could have gone into meeting, developing, or maintaining a relationship. Ultimately do whatever you want, but in my opinion this isn’t even cope, it’s just giving up.

I get what you’re saying, but that’s exactly my point. Yes relationships take time to develop and make meaningful, but talking to an AI could not be a worse use of your time if that TRULY was what you were after. Also not every interaction you have with another person is going to be meaningful, in fact most every interaction is not meaningful, but that doesn’t make them not worth it. How are you supposed to develop those skills if you do not exercise them? The best situations to exercise them on is low stakes casual conversation that doesn’t matter. Literally trying to interact with someone casually and being stonewalled is a better use of your time than spending any time with this or any AI. And yeah I’m aware that sounds kinda assholey, but I don’t really care in this case. Go talk to a random, work on your skills, not everything has to have meaning, not everyone is gonna like you and that’s okay. Talking to this AI? You might as well just give up developing those skills at all because it’s tailor made to like you regardless of all other factors.

You’re gonna tell me there’s no difference between being socially alienated and preferring to spend time with an AI? What is this fucking blade runner?
