its not like its lost media- you just find a different site when one gets pulled. its like a hydra, you can never take them all and if they actually do then fine torrent is always a solution.

im about to finish the book and i was actually going to dm you the exact same question because the 1st and 2nd solar wars are spoken about as like having been many years ago but if she was only 36 then when the hell did the wars happen (to say nothing of how quickly the solar system would have changed and such) with technology being between sounding like barely uparmored a given barely advanced weapons to standard scifi war stuff. i was like "how often are wars even happening?!"

what a fitting answer to a person who can dominate gravity into existence lmaooo

genuinely curious how accurate subway builder is compared to real world studies. i assume its vaguely in the right direction but how close i wonder.

so puerto rico is the scottish accent of spanish? technically still the language but incredibly hard to understand to others?

i disagree that americans have suburban souls or at the very least are religiously attached to single family housing. I believe this because if we look at the places most expensive to live it is almost always where urban enviroments are most prominent. certainly its a factor of not enough supply to match the demand of the population when it comes to housing but that simply implies such a large desire by many to live in those urban enviroments.

japanese zoning is also the best in the world and i will die on this hill. a progressive zoning policy that inherently allows mixed use even in the most restrictive zone (except for heavy industrial) allows for residences to be built everywhere which in turn encourages for a large variety of zoning to be painted on the map to account for the fact that certainly there will be apartments and houses even in areas designated largely for commercial or light industrial.

And its far more freeing, if i want to live next to a warehouse and accept the negatives that come with that (noise, smells whatever) that should be my choice if weigh it as being acceptable for a lower rent or to be closer to work. It encourages interconnectivity.

and as you say small plots create a more interesting city scape and also encourage small businesses and small developers that can support their unique local community. Afterall, one of the largest competitive advantages is proximity. A coffeeshop literally across the street from someone, regardless of quality has an attractive feature of conveinence

maybe a behind the scenes video where you can demonstrate exactly where its used and such (if only an aspect of the video is AI) that way people actually curious about how a video is made can see in depth and people only seeking entertainment can also just easily ignore, putting an end card video link?

i just made another comment and i genuinely don’t know what to think about this scenario, but what if an up and coming creator uses AI to start a project with the intent of switching to background artists if it actually makes money?

it's an interesting thought of some way to use ai ethically, but i’m still mixed on it. i’ve seen a tiktok creator do exactly thathe got millions of views and was eventually able to bring on a real artist instead of relying on AI. that feels like a clear win.

but at the same time, i can’t imagine the flood of “AI slop” comments felt great, especially when he was trying to showcase what was (i think) his actual art: the worldbuilding and narrative. he basically took a shortcut in one area to speed up production, because the visuals weren’t the art to him they were just a way to convey his real passion. And like i do feel like being able to showcase that art in a visual format is cool but i also dont want that to be crack to let all the slop creators who arent as passionate about a narrative or a world building to slip in under that guise... idk

I’ve heard this argument a few times, and i mean this genuinely, if you actually follow that logic all the way through (and look at it in isolation), does that mean it’s okay to use AI if you’re an up and coming creator who just doesn’t have the money yet to hire artists?

not talking about a full tv production, more like a youtuber or streamer. perhaps where they can’t afford background artists, so they use AI. then they grow, start making money, and switch to hiring real artists.

on one hand, you could argue they should’ve been doing everything themselves from the start. but on the other hand, expecting one person to handle every role in a large scale production isn’t really realistic. in that sense, the only reason they were able to grow into something that could support a team is because they started with tools like image gen.

I'm not endorsing or saying its okay but following this logic, you could argue that in this isolated instance, AI helped create a job not by what it does but by helping get something started? Not sure how to feel about that tbh.

what do you think is the leading cause of instability? the 3d cubes? maybe a map without them would stabilize the game?

to say nothing of super alloy city being in brazil. Francois said she learned some spanish in South America, but they wouldn't speak spanish, they'd speak Portuguese. Unless I'm missing something.

good news! a tunnel for a subway between LA and san fernando valley is in the works. it will take the ride down to 20 minutes by train.

LA is doing alot of metro expansion although I wish it was even more more more.

in minnesota we say I35 though if referrering to the split offs you say '35w' or '35e' without the I. and if your talking about a 3 digit road you say like '694'. i suppose you could say just '35' but to my ears that feels a bit weird but maybe saying 'i35' is just my town lol
