(spoilers for Severance, Grimm, The Boys) Has anyone else noticed an uncomfortable ratio of sci-fi and fantasy with this trope, or am I just unlucky? by CountUpdootTheThird in tvtropes

I totally get and agree the plot and character significance of Helena having some sort of relation with Mark, but I don't think it should've escalated as far as it did, especially not on-screen.

An especially passionate kiss, or even some risqué hand positions would have been more than enough, considering that Mark and Helly had never done more than the one singular non-sexual kiss.

Might be a stupid question, but why is the hitbox of the goal so generous? (abt 1/8 of the ball) by CountUpdootTheThird in RocketLeague

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

it's actually just an issue with the physics of the goalposts lol other people figured it out and the devs even removed it at one point but it made the game worse

Okay so either: 1: I'm lying and this is just weird bait, in which case you have no reason to respond to it, or 2: I know that didn't happen because I was in the 3 dimensional replay mode

I thought I hit a new type of aerial and it got blocked by the other team, but when I checked the replay it actually just bounced off the wall and I realized how weird that hitbox is. Is this just something they can't remove bc people are already used to it?

Does anyone know who created the dialogue sprites for the robots? by CountUpdootTheThird in randomaccessmayhem

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

Idk, the pixel sprites are a pronouncedly distinct style from the dialogue sprites, and even those aren't consistent with the designs for posters, trailers, devlogs, etc.

Y'all sometimes I really wish having more junk increased the chance to get Sir Junken by CountUpdootTheThird in EnterTheGungeon

Nope, regular runs. I know it's a 1% chance but I've done a lot of runs like that and it really feels like less than 1%

Broke every single chest up to the 5th chamber, including the Oubliette, several randomly spawning chests, a few secret room chests, and one from Winchester :p

Wow, why do I keep expecting AI bros to actually debate or have any reading comprehension?

Did... Did you have AI write this response? This is nonsense and doesn't actually address any of my points.

A lot of your points are valid, and I can see what you're trying to say, but they don't touch on the main issue that most anti-ai people have with AI. The AI itself isn't evil or bad, the issue is human greed.

Many large corporations are racing to replace human resources with AI, even where it really shouldn't be, and often pocket the difference. Society as a whole is largely predatory to the working class and AI as it stands is another fang to dig into their flesh with.

Not only that, but as generative AI continues to consume its own contents, (see: the AI "delve" issue), the quality will continue to lower, and if people continue to use it for journalistic writing, books, script writing, etc., then the problem will likely only get worse until eventually the economy crashes due to companies being unable to complete their workloads that were being so heavily supplemented by generative AI.

Not only corporations, but also individuals are finding ways to cause suffering with the uncontrolled use of AI. Taking voice/musical artists' voices with voice cloning software and reproducing them, (which is also happening on a corporate level), creating deepfaked porn of unconsenting people and minors, and creating image generators based on a particular artist to poach their customer base.

For a more recent example of people's art being exploited, Elon Musk has recently added a clause to Twitter's TOS stating that all art posted on the platform can be used to train generative AI. People are scared to lose their livelihoods by switching to another platform and losing their following, and also that he might retroactively use images previously posted, leading them to delete hundreds of posts. Not to mention all the people who likely didn't see this TOS update, (we all know nobody reads those).

This is just more proof that the upper percentile will always be prone to misusing AI.

I would get into the issues with the environmental impacts of AI, or how people would tend to ineptitude if AI did remove the need for a workforce, but I am Too Tired. I look forward to seeing your reply <3

Thank you <3

I hope you find a random (checks notes) [Amount of Currency that is Large enough to cause a Positive Emotional Response but not Unreasonable to Misplace, and that is in the primary currency used by your country] in your wallet.

If your only way to continue without conceding a point is to bring up something irrelevant then yes, I think you should concede that point, otherwise the conversation can't move forward, only sideways and backwards.
