Kissing? Try watching True Blood with the fam 👍

“It’s a horror show”

Corniest image I’ve seen in this community

Yeah I thought getting all touchy feely with creepy glowing orbs went out of fashion a while ago…

Why would he be embarrassed? He obviously killed it with that cosplay!

In fact, his costume and makeup were so good that even his own daughter (with “good eyes”) couldn’t tell it was him.

Yeah people who shit on vagans are terrible! I mean, look at this sweet little tart:

Don’t be too hard on yourself. Even if you learned Rust just for the meme you still learned Rust which is something most people will never achieve 👍

Rust is a superpower. Wait: You did learn Rust, right? 🤣

It’s conservative tears.

This vastly underestimates the laziness of English speakers. No: It’ll be shortened to…

Donferget

No, call it Highland and have it suck the life energy out of the people it passes over (to keep it fueled and in the sky). People that live there can be called, “Highlanders” 👍

Said no one: “Yay! Another CARDFIGHT!! Series!”

Also, why are they making a 2nd season of Tskukimichi? Someone just had to continue (finish?) the extremely low effort story‽

big tech’s gonna abuse it.

Actually, it’s everyone that’s going to abuse it. Big tech wants to be the exclusive “AI provider” for everyday people’s AI needs and desires but the reality is that the tech isn’t that easy to keep secret/proprietary because most of the innovations pushing AI forward come from individuals fooling around with the technology and academia. Not from big tech R&D (which lately seems to all be spent trying to improve business processes).

Big tech is spending billions on hardware and entire data centers just to do AI stuff with the expectation that it’ll give them a competitive advantage but the truth is that it’ll be the small companies and individuals that end up taking advantage of AI in ways that actually improve things for everyday people and/or make real money.

My guess is that they’re betting on acquisitions of companies using their AI processing power 🤷. Either that or it’s just wishful thinking.

Well, no, actually: The AI image model will generate bad fingers constantly it’s just become easier to fix via a secondary step (e.g. img2img) or you just tell it to generate 50 images and just pick the ones that don’t have messed up fingers 🤷

Individual Retirement Accounts too!

In the US anyone with a basic driver’s license can drive a huge Recreational Vehicle (RV) the size of a bus with 7 passengers. They’re super dangerous and it’s insane!

A 2,500-pound car and a 10,000-pound RV are the same from the perspective of the vehicle “class” on the driver’s license. This is not OK.

Yet another comment capitalist trying to take people’s jobs away! Think of the children, sir!

i need nest year’s lottery numbers

You can do this yourself! Just ask the Google, “<year your egg hatched> lottery numbers” 👍

It’s good to know that the infinitesimally semantic species, technicalis specifcus has also migrated from Reddit 👍

I just got mine too! 61.8MB zip file. Wow, haha.

I have 220,009 total karma (129,621 from comments) and people would see that and say things like, “Wow, you must make some clever posts!” or, “You’re really popular!” and I’m like, “Well… I have a lot to say…”

Interesting Stats

I made 13,168 comments starting at 2012-09-02 02:04:53 UTC (almost 11 years ago but my cake day is May 1st, 2011). That’s ~3.34 comments/day (since I moved from lurking to commenting) with an average karma per comment at ~9.82.

I made 633 posts for an average post karma of 164.57.

Hopefully I’ll be able to bring this level of engagement to the Fediverse! 👍

Conversely, Reddit has lost one of its top 0.1% power users that writes the types of comments that end up in Google listings when people search for, “site:reddit.com <whatever>”.

Awards

Who TF cares‽ That’s exactly the type of undemocratic bullshit that the Fediverse doesn’t need.
