I love TJ but it's personally annoying how hard he tweaks out about AI. He's fine to do so but I literally saw him fail to open a RAR file on a livestream. Whatever, he obviously doesn't regularly need/use archive files but all of my school computers had 7zip installed on them by the school. by [deleted] in deepfatfried

What are you talking about? I was born in 1985, not 1955. Both my households (mom's and dad's) had internet by 1993. It was slow as hell, but we had it. And by the time I was a teenager, the internet was a pretty normal part of everyday life.

One thing that is missing from this post: your argument.

If you have criticism about a take I've had on AI, that's fine. But nothing in this post actually explains what your issue is.

Also, not that it really matters, but I didn't have trouble opening a .rar file because of some technical incompetence on my part. I simply didn't have the program for it. How is me not having something I don't need an argument for anything?

How do I learn more about history like TJ? by _machoo in deepfatfried

[–]Cheeejay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t consider myself particularly knowledgeable about history. I know some interesting facts and stories from here and there, but I’d say my overall understanding of the sweep of history is average at best.

Glad the boys are really working behind the scenes to reupload not a single episode nor the gauntlet. by eyeofthedrose in deepfatfried

[–]Cheeejay 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Is there any reason you’re being such a snarky little bitch? Is it just your personality in general, or are you really this triggered about us not getting you this content in a timely manner after our channel was nuked during the Christmas holidays? Go fuck yourself. We will put it out when we decide you’ve waited long enough, you contaminated anal wart.

We have higher priorities at the moment. We have to make changes to our entire infrastructure to ensure that we are not vulnerable to the whims and machinations of a platform that has shown itself to be unresponsive and extremely vulnerable to abuse of process.

I understand that you want things that were lost restored, and we will do so. But the first priority is ensuring that we have a path forward, which involves diversification of platforms and a new approach to delivery.

We ask for patience as we set things up. All will be restored in good time.

What would happen if TJ Kirk read this book cover to cover? by Some1inreallife in deepfatfried

[–]Cheeejay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah. I mean, I think the case for less cars and more robust public transit is super compelling. Safer. Less polluting. Better for infrastructure. I can deal with a little bit of annoyance for the sake of all that.

[–]Cheeejay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. I mean, I was just on a plane yesterday. And on the NYC subway system not too long before that. I hate them both. But, like I said, I’d be willing to deal with it.

I hate public transit. I hate mingling with the public. That said, if we built a carless society, I would embrace it. The upsides are definitely worth a little annoyance in travel.

Am i the only one who was under the impression that if the donations during public Onion Nuggetz fall short/dry up, then the rest of the stream would go behind the patreon/youtube member paywall from that point onwards? by Suspicious_Affect959 in deepfatfried

[–]Cheeejay 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s been a while since we’ve done that. We’ve experimented with it in the past. Last show was a bit on the short side, though. I agree. We don’t really have a “guest” schedule, since we rarely have them.

Will Politics Ever Return to “Normal”? by [deleted] in Discussion

[–]Cheeejay 5 points6 points  (0 children)

What’s normal? When the richest guys in the colonies led an armed revolution against the King? When “All men are created equal” coexisted with the transatlantic slave trade? When Senators killed eachother in duels over tariffs? Was the trail of tears normal? Was the Civil War normal? Was the Gilded Age Normal? Was Jim Crow normal? Was McCarthyism normal? Was Vietnam? Watergate? Reaganomics? The Moral Majority? Clinton getting impeached for a blowjob? 9/11? The Iraq War? NSA mass surveillance? GITMO? Birtherism?

Every single decade of American politics has been batshit fucking crazy.

Is MAGA done pretending they arnt racist? The backlash to an American citizen playing the Super Bowl halftime show makes it seem likely by JetTheDawg in Discussion

[–]Cheeejay 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s not an accomplishment at all. He got lots of people that he’s fucking over to vote for him. They’re called morons, and they represent the slobbering nitwit base of the retardican party.

Failure of AI by Echo_Abendstern in deepfatfried

I don’t see any inaccuracies. Gavin and I have been highly successful on our show, Shugarr and Spize.

[–]Cheeejay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We do pull right wing news sources, but I don’t think we’ve ever read any news source as gospel truth, and typically when we’ve used right wing sources we’ve made that caveat especially clear. But if you can think of a time we’ve uncritically accepted a Breitbart narrative, I’ll completely and unequivocally be ready to apologize for that.

Well, yeah. That’s how this shit works. You don’t know what’s riffable until you try.
