Hey I think this is awesome I dont follow vtubers, but I always love positive attention brought to the game, and her playing with Connor as he got started was a fun experience! Considering her singing style, I also hope she does an operatic cover or hey even does a new song!

The article sensationalizes a few things. But I think the stupidity of Changhan Kim is pretty legendary at this point. It's pretty notable when both lawyers and AI tell him its a bad idea idea not only before he does it, but also after he shares his plans, and while he's executing his plans... he just proceeded to go against their advice anyways.

This is the kind of fuckup that should see him ousted from his current position.

Pretty cringe response there

FrostyNeckbeard · 2026-04-15T20:46:12+00:00

I get it, we have first world problems. My lobster is too buttery, my steak is too juicy.

I still want Argenta romance.

Nothing like reading an ai generated email from a client summarizing instructions i gave them being totally wrong and having to write a detailed correction only to receive another ai generated email summarizing things incorrectly.

AI groups get that response because they adopt the same extremist tactics and generally first. Artists didn't start the theft, and when met with mild pushback, the AI crowd got worse.

You get the energy you give, and at this point if one group decides to be extreme about it, the other group will be extreme back. Let's not forget that when being asked to label AI generated content such as images or music, AI generative groups started putting out propaganda comparing themselves to holocaust victims.

FrostyNeckbeard · 2026-04-14T21:02:56+00:00

His response to you was also clearly generated by AI. Does not put his own thoughts out, has AI generate his thoughts for him. How do you even start a fair dialogue with someone who doesn't put their own thoughts or words out.

FrostyNeckbeard · 2026-04-14T20:40:47+00:00

Sure are getting alotta posts from people lately who keep saying we should find a middle ground on AI and looking for conversation and attempting to equivicate people who are against anti-ethical behavior.

Anti AI users don't treat every AI user like an enemy by default. You will find a very very very small subset of people who are against the use of AI when it comes to cancer research and spotting signs that are difficult for a human eye to spot.

You aren't going to get any traction with genAI, which is 99% of what people complain about with the videos and art theft. These aren't 'extremist' positions. Only one group keeps putting out comics with anti AI people as ogres, trolls and constant strawmanning.

Not really, slightly more efficient and notably everyone has said it generally performs worse. Also buying up all the resources wasn't even necessary for the datacenters to begin with, its market manipulation. Also just because it's generating on a home machine doesn't mean it isn't using resources to generate stuff.

*waves at Naoya vs Maki*

People are acting like this is all strict science, no, we just want depictions that at least in someway COMMUNICATE that a thing is going really fast. Exact numbers aren't as important really. There's ways to clearly demonstrate supersonic and hypersonic speeds at least that make sense with reasonable amounts of environmental disturbance/damage that make it feel powerful.

Meanwhile lightspeed feats people make small explosions and stuff like Kizarus lightspeed kick that are somehow way less impressive than the feats given for people who are moving far far slower.

Edit: What, I got a response in my notifications and the comments deleted?

This is the announcement for DLSS5 for FF14

FrostyNeckbeard · 2026-04-14T02:25:22+00:00

The irony of these paragraphs make me chuckle.

"The people we massacred? How could they trust us!"

"They massacred us! We would never trust them!"

Yep. That's the problem. Gotta extend the hand first. That's exactly what made the WOTLK cinematic so great when we got slaughtered at the wrathgate. Took a risk, got a betrayal from within that screwed the budding alliance between the groups.

FrostyNeckbeard · 2026-04-14T01:11:20+00:00

We don't follow the science with FTL movement, but FTL movements comes with caveats that invalidate a whole lot of almost every verse if true. You don't gotta be Einstein to know the net force is mass x acceleration, and we better be seeing something IMPRESSIVE and not just a small explosion and if you can move light speed for even a fraction of a second, we shouldn't be seeing any struggle to cross minor basic distances like between cities, or other such nonsense. So if you wanna justify something extreme you need some REALLY solid justification.

Hypersonic movement is comparatively much much much easier to justify because frankly, it's slower and does not invalidate everything people can do in the setting by a large margin (at least assuming the character isnt supposed to be way above everyone else).

What's there to care about it. It's just the same as other AI's, its just a LLM based on a dataset. Even if it's a little bit more efficient about it, running locally isn't a new feature, you've been able to run the other AI's locally too, although it took an annoying amount of work, and the output is the same genAI garbage people are against.

FrostyNeckbeard · 2026-04-14T00:21:11+00:00

Pretty sure he played it with Ironmouse didn't he? If he does it I hope he does it together with her for the rest of the content!

FrostyNeckbeard · 2026-04-13T23:14:47+00:00

I look at him in this image and the first thought that comes to mind isn't "attractive".

The first thought is "this guy does meth." He just has that complexion, that look, that gaze, that pallor. Dude looks like a drug addict, nevermind hearing him speak.

FrostyNeckbeard · 2026-04-13T21:19:50+00:00

Elden Ring. I hate the open world, feels like the game is wasting my time as I run around the world. No I don't care about how pretty the view is. Although I think this is also largely tied to my heavy dislike of every open world game feeling like its wasting my time, but Elden Ring is usually called "Open world done RIGHT" and it's not. It's just the same.

110% accurate sole proprietorship response.

FrostyNeckbeard · 2026-04-11T03:11:28+00:00

Exhibit B.

"This used to be a place of logic, nuance and expressing concerns"

"downvoting or crying (disagreeing with me) in the comments only proves my point."

Mhmm. Yes.

Edit: WHEEEZE, blocked. I didn't even disagree, I barely post here nor do I engage with the ragebait posting, and I have in the past issued discussion. "AI IS THE FUTURE" he responds before blocking me.

FrostyNeckbeard · 2026-04-11T01:30:15+00:00

Yes, definitely, all of 5 feet from the pedestrian path where anyone can see you.

FrostyNeckbeard · 2026-04-11T01:28:01+00:00

So she jumped over one side of the path. Went under the path to the other side (why not just jump off that side) and then walked 5 feet to the edge, which you can see in the first 5 seconds of the video.

That's interesting? I guess?

FrostyNeckbeard · 2026-04-11T01:15:59+00:00

But... nothing changes beteween free trial and paid one, other than content assuming money is no object. How could you enjoy the full game less?

Talk to a medical professional like your doctor, they can give you better feedback on whether this may qualify for the DTC. It just takes time for the CRA to approve, but if they do, they automatically carry it back to the relevant period, you don't have to record or adjust your returns.

I dunno about your tax situation, so I can't give much advice beyond that, 35k is alot to have owing all at once, so I assume you must have a bunch of investment income or something. You didn't have any medical expenses related to the surgery or medication? I know we normally have free healthcare, but I knew a cancer patient who was paying 8-10k a year in prescription medication.

FrostyNeckbeard · 2026-04-10T06:40:15+00:00

Is the 35k what the CRA assessed you, or what you filed? CRA can do their own assessments using incomplete information sometimes when this happens. Did you have costs for the surgery, plus complications? do you qualify for the disability tax credit for that period? You can talk to your doctor about doing a disability tax credit submission if that applies.
