I'm surprised Harkon didn't try to take Blackreach for himself. They're immune to Falmer poison, they can use their full power without sunlight, they're smarter and have access to invisibility, illusions, and charms.

In return he could have a country sized cavern, with at least two points of contact to Skyrim one either end, all the dwemer tech to hoard and use with their ancient knowledge. He could subjugate the falmer to be blood livestock, they're already crafted to be good slaves by the dwemer.

He could slowly build up a vampire/thrall/dwemer machine army right under Skyrim then wage war overnight. Could even use dwemer machines by day to maintain territory until you complete this master prophecy you have.

Scrolling past this I thought it was a post about a bizarre captcha.

Who's to say gay men don't do more white collar crime?

And thus a new masochistic furry was born!

I think it's funnier without context, it implies she was disturbing the peace and the first person to walk up to her she fell in love with.

I think I'm going through the millennial thing, where everyone treats your generation as children even though I'm 25.

I mean, the first wave of Gen Alphas are 15 now, pretty soon no Gen Z's gonna be in high school anymore.

I stayed up to date on ai and machine learning, including language models. I remember hearing that one learned math from language and wondering where things will go. I watched ai safety videos before they felt relevant. Then I heard Openai, which had a good rep at the time, is releasing their new model online, called ChatGPT. Having played with DungeonAI and NovelAI before I was gonna fiddle with this as well.

Then headlines broke, it became a phenomenon. Even then I figured this would be this week's Thing before getting bored, as was common with these ai.

Down the line I remembered hearing ChatGPT on a gas station ad for some travel app. That was when I realized this is permanent. People who aren't even online are likely hearing about this. Suddenly my niche hobby and hopeful dreams of the future became an actual enshittified crisis.

I don't think I need to explain how everyone using language models now is just god awful for everyone. And the attention hasn't gotten us closer to answering long standing questions of ethics, economic change, what is intelligence or consciousness. We've just got a bunch of the lowest common denominator shouting their answers now.

Constrain the design by strict fake rules and you get Monster Hunter.

Listen, teleporting is always so busted that even 7 inches is enough to teleport through doors, fences, or restraints.

Only if your skinny and tuck your feet to the side though, even not though you'll at least be able to jump higher.

It's accessible for new users, easy for old users, but ironically the hardest if you know only just enough to be dangerous.

From watching the video, he's a great and talented science communicator and a decent man (depending on if the divorce trial was mutually fabricated or real).

But he's a mid scientist that doesn't really deserve to have his work compared to Einstein and Newton like he often is.

He also made up a bunch of macho cool stories about himself that's like Rick Sanchez mixed with an "Alpha Male", and much like both it infected young guys for years to come.

Also bongos.

 
 

I'm a Tans Pan Girl who's a little ENBY but still she/her. Obligatory I like programming, D&D, and MTG.

I made the transition (heh) from Reddit and it's been surprisingly smooth. I initially set up base in Sh.itjust.works but after seeing 196 and SapphicArt (please post more there) I moved to Blahaj.

I was worried there wouldn't be enough content or gay energy for my 12 hour work day but the 196 rule is ingenious for quickly populating a social network.
