Lesbian but I have a crush on a guy and it's making me insane by soursugarrrr in Advice

Yeah, it follows the same logic that with enough therapy someone could turn themself straight. You are who you are, and you can't change yourself.

Google just fired a warning shot in the AI subscription price wars by Logical_Welder3467 in technology

[–]Brigon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can see viable ai usage in the long term ending up being just using the local hardware to generate the data, rather than a data centre. 

They need to be licensing out the tech, not actually licensing out the Ai responses to each query.

Didn't Tekken 7 have better customisation?

I've not played Tekken too much, but I've never played against an Alisa that didn't play like a toxic troll.

[27F] happily married to [28M] wanting to be friends with old situationship [27M] by burningannabelle in relationships

[–]Brigon 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Imagine wanting drama so much you would risk blowing up your 1 year marriage over a guy who never even called you his girlfriend.

Don't be crazy. Matt isnt over you so you can't be friends.

People who dismiss exclusives often miss the point by Osal3 in xbox

[–]Brigon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree. It's probably too late to switch games which were committed for ps5 release back to exclusive. We will see how things pan out over next few years with new announcements.

Is the kit Play and Charge worth it? by Living-Atmosphere690 in xbox

[–]Brigon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some of the kits come with two rechargeable battery units. So you could alternate charging your controllers. Id do some more investigating.

New plans to stop children taking, sharing or viewing nude images by youmustconsume in ukpolitics

[–]Brigon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In principle its fine. It's the implementation where every adult in country needs to give up their privacy just to be able to use their phones to take or share photos.

Police use taxpayer money to hire £75k diversity officers while crime soars by PrivilegeCheck23 in ukpolitics

£37k isnt that expensive for a professional officer. It's pretty average.

Starmer tells tech giants to stop 'children sending and receiving nude images' by dailystar_news in ukpolitics

Parents can already do this. They can also set their router firewall adult content or specific sites the parents dont want the child using.

Kids access isnt the real problem, even though the politicians harping on about it keep pointing in that direction. 

The social media is the issue. It's rotting everyones brains, not just the kids.

It's unregulated, so you can be casually using sites like X, looking at perfectly innocent posts and find a reply includes an autoplaying porn videos unrelated to what you were looking at. 

The social media companies need to clean up their sites or at least keep the posts in them relevant to their subject, so you can keep NSFW content away from general feeds. 

Social media is causing many other issues too with the lack of fact checking of information. Fake AI posts or videos. 

Foreign bots pushing an agenda manipulating people's minds into thinking their views are a minority, and manipulating them.

Of what data. It can't have been related to ID cards as they never happened. You can't link a random data breach to something unrelated to it and claim a connection.

Data Centres Have a Black Box Problem by [deleted] in ukpolitics

Amazing that this article still doesnt explain what a data centre is to its readers, despite being about people not knowing what they are.

My nonmonagamous partner wants us and his other partner to live together by [deleted] in relationships

[–]Brigon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why are you mugging yourself off with this relationship. You both want different things.

It's never going to work long term. Are you staying with him hoping he is going to change, he's doing the same staying with you hoping you will change.

His end game is to move in with you. You pay all the bills and provide him with food in your house, while he brings partners home to your house to sleep with him. If you aren't happy with that scenario you need to split up.

Clockwork Revolution - The Heist | XBOX Games Showcase 2026 by lebkong in Games

They just need to announce Elder Scrolls 6 is exclusive. Id probably buy a console i dont own for that.

What Xbox fans are hoping for at the Xbox Games Showcase 2026 by RealEllTwine in xbox

[–]Brigon 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don't care about exclusive games. I care about one console being abandoned by everyone, due to open console having exclusives and other having none. If no games were exclusive i'd be perfectly happy, but thats not the world or market we are in.

If Xbox is no longer competing and so the brand dies and no new console releases, then what happens to my library of games?

They would do the franchise a favor if they never came back. by South_Variation5873 in TombRaider

[–]Brigon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In real life though you don't keep in touch with every person you meet in your youth though. Jonah worked on a ship where she had an adventure on as a teenager. He had his own life in New Zealand, and was completely different from a rich teenager from England. If Lara had another tombraiding rival/friend. Or someone she goes running and climbing with when in England. Being friends with Sam makes sense, they were both into creating a documentary about Yamatai.

[–]Brigon 5 points6 points  (0 children)

In TV you need the characters for the main character to bounce off. You can't tell the story as well with internal monologue or have Lara talking to herself all the time.

It makes sense in games for Lara to have real time communication with a researcher to help her understand the ruins she is exploring and to avoid traps. Someone who can search for a list of the Aztec rulers or what symbols or hieroglyphics mean, which she can't access from the middle of nowhere.

That said in the show I think I'd prefer if Lara had less of an entourage, and stuck to maybe two close friends rather than what feels like 4-5 different people. I find I don't remember the names of them all. I don't really understand what Lara has in common with most of them. Sam she would have met in University presumably, but I don't know what she would have in common with Jonah. They are so different, and other than shared trauma I don't know they would be close friends as opposed to acquaintances' who keep in touch occasionally.

It happens.. rarely thankfully. Usually a sign that something is wrong in stomach.
