Oh, for sure. Their souls are so black that Anish Kapoor has exclusive rights.

Okay, that got a gut laugh out of me, I’ll have to use this one later on.

In a general sense, absolutely, but there are still a good number of pro-AI communities around here that typically keep to their own bubbles. Anyone browsing by All will inevitably see them come up here and there.

I also see AI-gen content make it to the top of larger, more general communities like Lemmy Shitpost every now and then. Usually when it’s harder to tell that it was generated by AI. When it gets called out, you’ll typically see more upvotes than downvotes, but there will inevitably be some AI sympathist or two in the replies who won’t hesitate to go off about how it’s not a big deal/it’s just a meme/there’s nothing inherently wrong with AI/etc.

A lot of countries use , to indicate decimals instead of .

The inconsistency is inconvenient, but context helps.

And your description sounds more like you’re asexual with men

Seems more like aromantic to me than asexual. OP enjoys the sex, just not the intimacy.

Labels are dumb, but if I had to call it something, it’d be homoromantic-bisexual or something like that.

I don’t see what’s wrong in describing oneself as a lesbian in that instance, given that all labels are just labels of convenience and it describes OP’s ideal preference well enough. Even if some gold stars may disagree.

“Up to birth”, but then after that it’s fair play. Now that’s the American way!

We can also start counting the total days of this 2-week special operation in Iran.

The Trump admin doesn’t actually care where someone is from, they just get sent to a hole somewhere in El Salvador or South Sudan.

I’m confused. Is this supposed to be your idea of a witty comeback because you took criticism of a billionaire personally, and now just want to belittle others to feel better about yourself?

It’s not about whether or not he has other philanthropic activities.

It’s about the fact that he thinks it’s okay to spend a billion dollars on just boats.

He also has the financial means to solve a lot of serious problems in the world that could save many lives.

But, you know, why spend that money on humanitarian causes when you can just buy a 6th environment-killing superyacht, because the first 5 weren’t enough?

There is no such thing as a good billionaire. Gabe Newell is no exception, even if he’s less overtly evil than others.

Reminds me of Orson Scott Card and Ender’s Game. Another person whose political beliefs seem so antithetical to key messages conveyed by their book.

Google has a search monopoly, that is not in question.

The only thing is, had the case been decided under any other DoJ, Google would not have gotten off as lightly as they did. But even Pam-fucking-Dow-over-50,000-Bondi agreed that Google was a monopoly.

Steam has convinced the gaming industry that you can own nothing and be happy with it, just by virtue of being less shitty than everyone else.

Lemmy hates billionaires but never hesitates to kneel at the altar of Gaben.

She literally wrote a plot line in Fantastic Beasts about how it would be bad for wizards to stop the Nazis when they had the chance.

Grindelwald predicted another world war, and was attempting to rally wizards to abandon their no-intervention stance and prevent the war before it happened. Literally showed an image of the Holocaust and said he wanted to stop it. The “good guys” then stopped him.

Just to expand the explanation, blue and green were both just “ao” in Japanese until relatively recently (relatively still being a fairly long time), when “midori” started becoming more popular to refer to green.

As for why the traffic light is still called “blue” despite being green, one need only ask why there is a very popular rhyme scheme in English that goes “roses are red, violets are blue…” when violets are violet.

The worst thing that can come from this is that Disney gets bored with owning a video game company

If I had to guess, they actually want Epic because they use Unreal for their TV series and movies. I think they couldn’t care less about the video game business.

But all of the set backgrounds for e.g. The Mandalorian are rendered in Unreal on their fancy 360° production stage so that they can have real-time photography and lighting based on camera position.

Gotta break it down into stages for the clown meme. It’s supposed to get progressively more clown-like with each stage.

1. Buying clothes that I like.

2. Buying clothes that I think I look good in.

3. Buying clothes that others think I look good in.

4. Buying clothes that others think I look good out of.

Here’s my YouTube recommendation:
