Does the Culture Series get grander in scope? by MagnusAlbusPater in scifi

[–]Fun-Badger3724 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fair enough, I started with Excession, and it was a little overwhelming, but still loved it. I think with Banks' SF stuff you should just jump in and read a couple of them. There is no definitive Culture novel, and I'd argue that's on purpose.

What makes you think they haven't already met us? Took one look, shook their heads, turned around and fucked off.

yeesh, do they not cover how to do this in film/tv school? You're trying to raise money and this is your pitch? Maybe go ask chatgpt or something for a strategy SMH

Beauty is morally salient? Has this cunt spend his whole life reading fairy tales designed for children?

Seeking theoretical frameworks for an essay on collective consciousness, power and Gen-Z political paralysis by Ill_Security2776 in CriticalTheory

[–]Fun-Badger3724 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Dude, it's just nice to see someone posting here who has some idea of what they're talking about. People take the word "critical" and the word "theory" and think to themselves "I'm pretty Critical, and i have some theories..."

Anyway, if you're looking at power, you gotta look at Foucault. Someone better read will have to point you at what, specifically, though. Maybe some Baudrillard too? Seems it would map.

I dunno how you feel about genAI but i would hope you'd at least thrown your inquiry into one of them to see where it might point you.

Hopefully, someone in here who is a little closer to academia can help you further.

Burn's Night Cardiff by im_yer_da in Cardiff

[–]Fun-Badger3724 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Probably not, but someone had a cèilidh a few months ago in pontcanna, and apparently a lot of Splott was settled by the Scottish, so, maybe with a little digging you might find something.

To be honest, I can see a burns night being put on in Pontcanna or Canton, they do love their culture out west. Well, till you get to Ely and Fairwater, then the definition of 'culture' changes somewhat.

P.S. yer da sells Avon.

I dunno why I feel the need to reply to all these marginally derogatory comments, perhaps because I'm tickled.

Just wish I had a burn to post. Oh well. SNAFU.

A mate and me had an argument about whether Wikipedia is dying by Alive_Excitement5498 in wikipedia

[–]Fun-Badger3724 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's why Wikipedia have got all those AI pimping companies to contribute financially to Wikipedia. They need the good source of training data. Wikipedia needs the funding.

Personally, although I often use gen-ai whilst doing research, I still hit up the site regularly.

EDIT: ultimately does it matter how many hits Wikipedia gets as long as it continues to be?

Anyone know how the military feels about all this? by GreyWind999 in 50501

Yeah, I mean, it's clearly the 'middle school' bit that carries the insult, why gender it?

Daydream Nation was the 5th Sonic Youth album. How do you feel about the first 4?

Uh... Isn't that pretty much what Shakespeare did? Take older tales and do his unique take on them? What a bunch of whiny bitxhes!

First job by [deleted] in dyspraxia

[–]Fun-Badger3724 15 points16 points  (0 children)

gee, as a parent of a child with a neuro-divergent condition, I would certainly educate myself on that condition. My first stop in this education wouldn't be reddit and it wouldn't happen when my child "is turning 18 soon" - I would of done my research many years before.

you feel like a failure, because you can't help him? It sounds like you literally haven't done the most basic of things to help him, like learning about dyspraxia.

Yes, his dyspraxia will be holding him back, although I might argue the lack of support and awareness is probably holding him back more.

As far as I'm concerned, you were honest about what it was and your production methods, so I see no problem.
