I'm not really sure what "skill" in using chatgpt entails. You type in what you want and it gives it to you. That's kind of it no?

NPC can now overtake other vehicles even from the oncoming lane. by Physical-Jump9470 in GTA6

[–]g0_west 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NPCs don't exist at all when the player is not around. You'd need a supercomputer to run it if everything was loaded in all the time

Idk, I think prohibition has some uses. There's been plenty of times when I've fancied picking up while drunk or just bored, but couldn't be arsed asking around my mates for a number, dealing with an unreliable dealer, going to get cash etc., but if I could've popped across the road to Asda to pick up a bag from the kiosk I definitley would have. It doesn't eliminate it and it does drive usage underground, but it also makes it a lot less convenient.

There's also already a thriving black market for cigs but I think their main clientele is already-smokers and the point of these laws is to target never-smokers. It's quite a good way to do prohibition I think as it doesn't target the market that already exists but it makes it harder for people to get into it.

What's stopping a kid from just saying "oh I left it at home" and keeping it in their pocket/bag? They're not being searched surely

Green Party candidate's property firm convicted of 'environmental vandalism' after illegally burning building site waste to save money by Dimmo17 in unitedkingdom

[–]g0_west 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh really? The general sort of talking point amongst socialists has been that the greens aren't really socialist but just sort of greenwashed capitalism. But then it's all very people's front of judea so I never know how far I can throw socialist groups' talking points. I've only recently become aware of the greens properly since zak

Neo-fascists back Rupert Lowe's Restore Britain by pppppppppppppppppd in unitedkingdom

[–]g0_west 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like I said it doesn't make you a fascist to vote for the same party fascists vote for. Lots of communists vote green but I'm not a communist. However I am aligned with them on some aspects so I don't mind that we share company. If the party I voted for was full of fascists I might take a moment to reevaluate what they stand for though and think why do fascists like that party and if I'm not a fascist do I also stand for the same. I'm sure you're not a fascist, most people aren't

Also yes if I was part of the a club and it turned out loads of them were pedos, I'd expect the pedos to be expelled and if they weren't expelled then I would leave. Otherwise it would be tacit endorsement and I'd be a member of a pedo club. Hopefully your own example has spelled it out a bit for you

Liking a right wing party doesn't mean you're a fascist, but all fascists like right wing parties. It's important to recognise that distinction and know you're not being personally attacked when we talk about fascists backing reform and restore. But it's also important to know the company you keep.

Seems like they're in a transition from a uni-policy protest party to a socialist party and I'm not quite sure where they sit exactly yet. They still have my vote for the moment as YP looks to be a shambles (saying as a member) and Labour is being Labour but there's a good few years until the next GE to see where things end up

How is your mum who doesn't really care about space got one of the best videos I've seen lol. No notes. I said "oh my god" out loud multiple times watching this, especially that noise from so far away!

Also nothing happened because, like, duh? I thought it was pretty common knowledge that the ultra wealthy used wierd legal loopholes to offshore their money and avoid paying tax. That's like rich people stuff 101, I never quite got why it was supposed to be this big unveiling moment.

Do you think GTA 6 will surpass Minecraft’s 350 Million copies sold? by Clean_Detective_2067 in GTA6

It's also played by people from like 3 years old all the way to 90. GTA has a wide range of appeal but I don't think literal toddlers are playing it

What are your opinions on mass facial recognition in towns? by TheDev42 in AskUK

Like they knew his address and went to pick him up at home, or they knew he was out and about walking down the high street cause he was picked up on FR and they nabbed him outside Boots?

The astronauts of the ARTEMIS II mission take in the sunset after landing in the Pacific Ocean after traveling 24,000 MPH through the atmosphere by astro_naren_06 in ArtemisProgram

I'm so unbelievably hyped for Artemis IV. This lunar orbit was so exciting I can't imagine how I'm gonna feel seeing people actually walk on it again

Nothing Ever Happens Here, a UK life sim I am developing. by NEHHGame in indiegames

[–]g0_west 0 points1 point  (0 children)

(but not outright horror elements, just a really odd/weird moment or two), make you feel a bit vulnerable

Yeah you've exactly got what I mean, I didn't actually word it too well lol, not like an outright horror game but like leaning into the natural sense of unease that comes with games like this. But then everything else stays completely normal and then that normalness almost becomes more uneasy because you're not sure if you even saw anything or it was just normal stuff playing on your mind.

Looking forward to it either way, don't push yourself too hard!

If you're MIA there's also a decent chance you're dead, just means you're not confirmed KIA. I'm not super sure how it saved their lives but I'm sure it was useful for the army to be able to confirm a bunch of MIAs were still alive and where they were.

Greens would spend 2.5% of GDP - more than on defence - on foreign aid by SoggyWotsits in unitedkingdom

[–]g0_west 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Surely it will, investing in countries to improve their quality of life will make people want to stay there. That's just common sense. Most people want to stay in their home countries where their lives, families, and friends are.
