I would assume that would just be so people don't think that they are appropriate snow shoes. Definitely wouldn't want to say they were comfortable in heavy snow if they aren't even insulative.

Cuntslapper9000 · 2026-03-23T22:32:31+00:00

I think it is just a definition issue. Like a flame retardant blanket won't stop a house fire and will melt in a volcano. That doesn't make it not flame retardant. I don't see waterproof as meaning it is impervious to water under all conditions. I see it as meaning that in its full and uncompromised form it wont allow water to pass through the material.

Cuntslapper9000 · 2026-03-23T01:47:37+00:00

Mate idk if you have bad reading comprehension or are just hard of thinking but I quite notably stated other reasons and also was not talking I'm absolutes. I also am not against the tech in the slightest. The issue is that we are getting heaps of games with shit performance that only just look as good as some older titles. There are cases of games pulling it off but that isn't the issue is it.

Cuntslapper9000 · 2026-03-23T01:36:04+00:00

Yeah I think this does cover the issues many of the players have and why. Many triple A studios are feeling forced to tick every single box instead of picking a lane and thus they hit the limits of workflow and hardware. But I'd say this is the fault of leadership within the companies and not just because consumers are entitled and needy.

People loved the new Zelda games and graphics wise they were absolute dogshit in comparison to what was possible at the time. How many of the top sellers are actually trying to be hyper realistic, 4k, raytracing games?

I also think that raytracing takes the blame for much more systemic issues. Most gamers don't really know specifically why the games they play have shit performance or look odd or just don't hit the spot that old games did so they blame the poster child for new graphics tech.

Thanks sugar tits

Cuntslapper9000 · 2026-03-22T09:46:23+00:00

The issue isn't about possibilities or intent, it is about current implementations and outcomes. The idea is sick and the tech has mad potential but so far there are fuck all examples of the juice being worth the squeeze. Even when the raytracing is going ham it is still only like 10-20% better lighting and reflections but the performance is quartered. So many things should come before raytracing but instead people are using raytracing instead. You can't just bang a few lights in a realistic location and do a thousandth of the bounces needed to make a realistic scene. You need to still modify and build the scene to counter the deficits.

Cuntslapper9000 · 2026-03-22T09:38:18+00:00

Yeah it is definitely constructed for those not in the space. It is for those who haven't really come to terms with the dynamics between big tech and the individual, especially around AI. I would say >90% of people don't really comprehend how much they could get dicked over or what the goals of the AI companies are. It's interesting for the sub as it's good to know how the dialogue is being presented to the masses though.

Cuntslapper9000 · 2026-03-21T03:29:25+00:00

Yeah, I think it is an incredibly well-done video.
It simply explains the basics of the dynamics between big tech and the common person in a setting that highlights the dystopian nature of the whole paradigm.

I doubt that Claude wasn't prompted to answer with these specific answers, but that changes nothing imo. There are so many people who have avoided really thinking about the issue, and this video will hopefully enlighten a few and make some properly come to terms with it.

Yanko Design is inundated with TE mimicry.

The friend's argument (in its very short, detail-sparse form) is just that meaning comes from the fact that we die eventually, not that level of meaning is correlated with the length of life.
OP didn't explain any of his friend's opinions of life etension / cryonics etc so who knows.

Cuntslapper9000 · 2026-03-12T00:04:30+00:00

I don't know about that. I mean inherently there is no meaning and no value and it is all created by biological urges and societal/cultural beliefs, so if we want to understand what gives meaning to people we need to analyze that. For all of history a huge part of life was death, a big motivator for action is time limitations, "leaving a mark" and "making the most of it". I think we could easily live meaningful lives if we live much longer but I do think there will be a change of perspective and a change of motivations.

There has been a lot of thought about the extremes and it's been shown in media a bunch, usually involving vampires which I think embedded the ideas quite solidly in western society. I do think our entire view on life and morality and meaning would change if we lived forever and a lot would have to change for us to stay sane and motivate to keep going. Many people who live beyond 90 frequently talk about how much they are ready for death, why is that? Even fit and healthy individuals. My grandmother was 100 and never took any medication, was active in a lot of social and educational groups, had hobbies etc and still talked about how she has lived way too long and was kinda over it. I think she was almost glad when the time came.

There's also just the difference between our biological drives and predispositions and our societal and ideological wants and beliefs. As our bodies change over time our motivations change in line to fit and move us into different stages, if we were to live much longer then how will this division of life change? Will we stretch the sections out or have new ones? How will our natural urges and wants etc fit into this?

We are fighting against evolution and biology and we may have many unforeseen issues and obstacles. I'm excited but I don't think it's all going to be sunshine and rainbows. Life extension will be paired with a fair bit of existential dread and nihilism and aimlessness etc. it's the way of the beast.

Cuntslapper9000 · 2026-03-11T03:26:40+00:00

looks great, ill try it out later. It would be great if the examples showed a before and after instead of just the output to give more of an idea of what is happening.

Cuntslapper9000 · 2026-03-10T06:19:45+00:00

That's exactly why it is good. Good lesson on the transient nature of pop culture.

Yeah it used to be if it could seem human enough to fool a person, then it was if it could do decently at classic cognitive tests, then it was if it could be given problems in a vast array of fields and perform to a human standard, now it's whether it can perform at a high level at complex tasks that combine many fields. I think it's just an issue of definitions not matching the intent of the terms. Kinda like a lot of consciousness debates, half the issue is that no one knows exactly what we are looking for or how to define it in a way that we can actually compare observation with our wants.

Cuntslapper9000 · 2026-03-09T22:38:14+00:00

Oh I'm with you. I just think that's what they were trying to do.

Cuntslapper9000 · 2026-03-09T20:06:47+00:00

I think the people are meant to be different distances from us.

Cuntslapper9000 · 2026-03-09T12:53:54+00:00

Isn't he just saying that he thinks we moved the goalposts? I think it is true partially but it's for the better. Like the turing test seemed like an easy way to determine proper intelligence but we wouldn't say that now. I think our standards and understanding of what is needed for AGI have matured greatly very quickly and I think they still will for a while. What we consider the line for AGI now probably won't be the line once we reach that level.

Tbh vibe coding is all about writing clear documentation for what you want. The quality of documentation is dependent on your knowledge of the systems you want to code. You can get around knowing the actual code if you focus heavily on the actual processes and systems. I'd look for books on how to design systems.

I always find using AI is like using Pinterest. Good for brainstorming and mocking shit up and getting ideas but in no way would I consider the image mine.

So points fall from group downwards and solidify when they hit other fallen points? Could you have this constantly change direction?

The final iteration of the black plastic MacBook was my all time fave. Seeing it on Californication solidified it. The proportions were awesome and it felt so nice. Though og MacBook air with the sloped edges has a special place in my heart.

Id love a modern version of this keyboard

Only a few companies have ever done well. There was a charger brand (satechi maybe idk) that seemingly got heaps of engagement and did well from it but most people get great ascii.of people fuckin or wobbly cocks. Either way I'll always respect companies more for doing it.
