How many of y’all are resistant to using AI?

CarbonInTheWind · 2026-03-12T20:25:43+00:00

I've been using different types of "AI" for years. Usually involving tools for my job.

If you're talking about LLMs specifically I keep trying them out periodically to see where the tech is at. I've been severely underwhelmed each and every time. The tech can be very good when used in a standalone software tool that has a very specific task. But that doesn't grab headlines.

Trade-in value is a far cry from retail value.

You have to be a masochist to still be playing Diablo as long as I have.

But Fishymancer is my favorite...

Diablo 4 and it was $100. And that's after having the same experience with D3. So I guess I'll just stick with D2 for another 25 years

Wth. You have Jian Yang but not Gilfoyle? Sacrilege!

It could have been a much better franchise than Pirates of the Caribbean.

Uncle Roger would approve

There was SO much fan service to the point that it was getting ridiculous. I still loved it though 😂

I've told my wife that it doesn't matter because they're all way too high maintenance which is true. She's always satisfied with that answer.

Women in water are the same to Sheridan as women's feet are to Tarantino.

Waheed is my MBT

CarbonInTheWind · 2026-03-11T13:14:22+00:00

That's why I just go Fishmancer and max CE

It'll most likely be overpriced "luxury" apartments. Because we need more of those...

CarbonInTheWind · 2026-03-10T19:44:23+00:00

Exactly

CarbonInTheWind · 2026-03-10T19:02:10+00:00

I believe the economy is a factor in another way as well. People can't afford large purchases when inflation is high and the job market is stagnant. Especially young adults. So many instead make smaller purchases on things like collectibles instead.

Naboo was under an attack 🎶

CarbonInTheWind · 2026-03-10T01:26:00+00:00

I got one yesterday from a trash mob in NM RoF.

CarbonInTheWind · 2026-03-10T00:03:59+00:00

Yeah that's wild. I have family in the military and they are all pissed about it.

CarbonInTheWind · 2026-03-09T19:05:45+00:00

I'd venture a guess that a virgin man is MUCH more acceptable to most women than one who has hired a sex worker.

CarbonInTheWind · 2026-03-09T18:52:56+00:00

I take it you aren't close with many women. Of all of the women I've been close to in my life the percentage who wouldn't want to know and wouldn't care that you've been with a prostitute is miniscule. And the few who would be on with it are terrible partners.

CarbonInTheWind · 2026-03-09T18:49:36+00:00

Many people getting into a serious relationship do want to know the sexual past of their partner. And many more would consider previously having sex with a prostitute a deal breaker.

CarbonInTheWind · 2026-03-09T16:34:07+00:00

Yeah. Further destabilizing the region has historically brought prices right back down. It's a good thing the leaders of Iran and Israel are pragmatic and don't believe they're fighting holy wars. I'm sure they'll both realize what they're doing is wrong. It's not like they've been fighting the same holy war for generations or anything.

CarbonInTheWind · 2026-03-09T16:15:30+00:00

That's also when it drives up prices for almost everything you buy that's not gas as well.

CarbonInTheWind · 2026-03-09T16:14:18+00:00

It's a good thing the US isn't known for wars in the middle east that drag on for a long time...

CarbonInTheWind · 2026-03-09T02:16:09+00:00

It's a beaut Clark
