Omg yessss that’s it lmaooo thank you so much!

Please no cracking cold ones in the silent study room. Please silently drink from a flask.

“Splattered, splattered, splattered on the windshield of life!” I remember that song, but can’t find it. Also haven’t looked super hard recently. If I wasn’t busy I’d listen through the sound track, I’m guessing the title doesn’t match.

Isn’t this more or less what Truck Simulator is? I find the idea interesting, but I’d want some sort of goal. I could be really obtuse and say that Grand Theft Auto 5 is an open world driving game lol.

I like open world games. They get a bad rap because a lot of games that are sort of samey and sloppy use open world aspects, but I don’t think the open world aspect is the problem.

I once heard someone describe legacy systems as systems without test coverage. I think it’s not the best description, but it’s certainly an interesting perspective.

It’s part of why it bothers me when folks say they use LLMs to make unit tests. If anything, you should be writing tests by hands to get a solid specification then let the AI make the code. Of course this is a false dichotomy, but I’m just saying if you have to choose between those two options in some weird hypothetical bizarro world.

Seeing you reply made me click the link, where is my beloved! At least the new owners want to keep it Zombo.

I don’t think people engaging in things like this are necessarily “gullible.” Things for “good luck” (sort of lumping a lot of stuff there since some might view a blessing and luck differently) are a lot about the tradition and ceremony of it. Sometimes it’s just fun to do things. Like breaking a bottle on the side of a new ship.

Are they at least tracking less? (Not that I think that makes it okay.)

Misread the headline as removing instead of adding. Was very confused.

Yeah baby, wakka wakka my apt, pacman, I didn’t even read the news file, I like to live dangerously!

I disagree, but only in that it’s not potentially SA, it’s always SA. Checking genitals for entry into a shared restroom or changing area is SA always.

This one is big and I never noticed it until a few years ago. My wife and I never got cable when we moved into our own place. One time my mother in law was talking to my wife about some commercial and my wife just said she hadn’t seen it. My mother in law got really weirdly upset or something, like my wife was trying to be condescending or something. But she was talking about it the same way people might talk about a funny skit from a show. It wasn’t until being away from it for years that I realized how odd it is.

It’s the logical conclusion of trying to prevent trans people into the rest rooms and changing areas that match their gender.

Which part do you think is incorrect though?

Nah to which part?

I feel he’s comparing streaming to white collar jobs, not blue collar jobs. I often refer to my white collar job as my first “real job” because it was the first job I got involving my degree. Prior to that my blue collar jobs where I worked as a “janitor” or in a deli were just part time work to get some spending money.

Ironically, or perhaps not depending on your perspective, having every statement you make over analyzed because your profession is just constantly making statements live can certainly be soul sucking. I think this post is evidence of that. You have to constantly make sure you don’t say things that can get clipped in a way that will make you look bad.

Judging by his other statements, I find it hard to believe he’s saying that hard manual labor is easy work that isn’t soul sucking.

This is 100% why Reddit made the API changes the originally brought many of us over. AI companies scraped the web, made LLMs, and Reddit missed out. They wanted to make sure the next ones paid them.
