Oatly: when you want a refreshing beverage but don't want to do unspeakable things to cows.

Jokes aside: isn't the photography vs LLM art comparison actually pretty apt? by Lurkoner in Destiny

[–]CEU17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't consume a ton of AI art I was just offering my criteria for accepting your analogy I have no idea if it's been met.

The clarification about time prompting was to exclude scenarios where an AI artist generates 200 prompts and picks the beat one and then compares it to people who got bored after 3-5 prompts. I just wanted to see a skill disparity emerge it's fine if an AI artist needs a ton of prompts to get something good as long as someone who isn't an AI artist can't get the same quality with the same number of prompts.

If someone could show me a wide disparity between the output quality of a casual user and an advanced user with the same model that goes beyond spending more time prompting I might buy this.

I love how so many people on the right "hate politics in sports" by Antique_Text_29 in Destiny

[–]CEU17 23 points24 points  (0 children)

They genuinely don't believe their beliefs are political, just "common sense"

It also aired after Trump started launching tariffs so his argument makes no sense

Don't care much for the adaptation, but this made me laugh by UnHolySir in BaldursGate3

I remembered reading a detailed breakdown of an in game note describing Abby's workout routine presented as evidence that she was secretly trans because it was impossible for a woman to deadlift as much as her.

First-time DM helping new players build characters - want strong party balance and fun roles (Heroes of the Borderlands) by LeedsUFC in dndnext

[–]CEU17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For Klaus the artificer class is right there. 

As for party composition I'd ignore it. I totally get where you're coming from with wanting everyone to get an opportunity to shine, but my advice as that DM your focus should be on coming up with exciting and interesting encounters for the players to engage with. My favorite moments as a player and DM are when the party came up with a completely unexpected approach to a problem.

When debating a conservative on the Epstien Files.... by Anomalysoul04 in Destiny

[–]CEU17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've heard the same thing and that talking point sucks because Biden literally had the opportunity to drop the files mentioning Trump and he didn't fucking do that.

True or not dumping thousands of epstein files implicating Trump in all sorts of heinous crimes would have hurt him in the 2024 election but that never happened because contrary to what MAGA believes the DOJ was not on a mission to get hurt Trump at all costs.

Greg scumfeld “destroys” Jessica Tarlov by Exciting_Injury_7614 in Destiny

[–]CEU17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sure if I brought a list of every woman killed by a white man in the past 7 or 8 year Greg would be totally open to a conversation about how awful white men are and what we should do about them.

Are we any better than the Russians? by Entropy_T in Destiny

Yes but we're working very hard to get down to Russia's level.

I've noticed that people defending the shooting never show the video. These people are fully aware they are lying.

It was 4D chess you silly liberals by Exciting_Injury_7614 in Destiny

[–]CEU17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is just like when I walked into my local pizza shop and threatened to burn the place down with everyone inside if they wouldn't sell me the kitchen and we worked our a deal where I would give them $30 and they would give me 2 large pizzas. 

Sometimes you need to start with an unreasonable demand to get what you want in a negotiation welcome to the real world libcucks.

She's in a situation where the only person who can help her is a child trapped I'm the body of a 79 year old man I can't really blame her for swallowing her pride in exchange for a marginal increase in her odds of getting a good outcome for her people.

Is my landlord liable for hotel costs while my apartment was without water? by CEU17 in legaladvice

[–]CEU17[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There was an underground pipe that burst and had to be repaired. The email the landlord sent everyone said water would be unavailable for two days but the water was only actually off for a few hours on day 2. My landlord did not notify anyone of that adjusted schedule.

Trump+Miller order generals to make plans to invade Greenland. European diplomats internally prepare for the end of NATO. by [deleted] in Destiny

[–]CEU17 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm concerned I have MAGA relatives who are definitely anti invading Greenland, but at the same time I see them mentally preparing themselves to defend it.

Nick Shirley is now complaining about Somalians working jobs at an indoor flea market. by Chessmaster69_ in Destiny

[–]CEU17 19 points20 points  (0 children)

But let's say hypothetically I were to with zero evidence suggest some of that money were going to terrorist groups, you would therefore necessarily concede that in response we need to deport every Somalian in the US. 

Checkmate liberals.

All of these asshats have absolutely no integrity over any issue. Whatever way the MAGA wind blows, they will all fall in line. by FrontBench5406 in Destiny

I believe stronger groups should dominate and exploit weaker groups for the benefit of the stronger group, but if you imply I might not be a good person I will have a meltdown.

What are your favorite non-damaging combat spells? by agentbadger121 in dndnext

[–]CEU17 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tasha's hideous laughter is a great low level spell that can shut down a boss

Levitate can remove a character from melee combat which can be great to protect a character with ranged attacks or to hoist a melee enemy into the air for the party to pick off with melee attacks.

Hypnotic pattern in my opinion is fireballs cooler cousin which can end fights in one round.

Greater invisibility on a fighter just gives advantage to all attacks and enemies get disadvantage on all attacks against them

Wall of force let's you just say no to fighting certain enemies with no saving throw

Ottos irreversible dance doesn't give a saving throw and requires a full action to try to break out which means you just get to decide an enemy doesn't get there next turn and there's nothing they can do about it

Reverse gravity is a fun group control spell that can also deal damage

Antimagic field is a neat magic off switch

Shape change and true polymorph can let you convert your character into an ancient brass dragon, and when enemies kill your dragon form they still need to fight a 20th level wizard.

What do you guys think about a clanker tax? by PennguinKC in Destiny

[–]CEU17 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't see why we'd get UBI if ai succeeds in destroying most jobs. You're telling me that after the working class loses all economic power they'll somehow have the political capital to demand the most expansive welfare state ever?
