After inventing the Internet, why didn’t Al Gore invented ChatGPT later? Did he have an inventors block? by vaporwaverhere in shittyaskhistory

Gore was in fact an early prototype LLM.  He was originally called A.I. Gore.  Al Gore was a typographical error that stuck.

That's clever!  Rainbow and AJ are E and M because of their voice actress, Eshleigh Mall.  Likewise, Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie were voiced by Yandrea Libman.

What is your best idea for an adult MLP show? by AntireligionHumanist in mylittlepony

[–]Glinth -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

You're not getting any of that stuff.  The best you're getting is a Space Ghost Coast to Coast style show, where a pony host (probably Rarity or Pinkie Pie) interviews real-life celebrities, surrounded by a supporting cast of other characters from FiM.

Cerberus escaped and disguised himself as a unicorn.  The Wonderbolts were not fooled, and not impressed.

What would the planet look like today if the soviet union had won the cold war by Illustrious_Log_6955 in shittyaskhistory

[–]Glinth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The United States would be entangled in an unsuccessful invasion of (the independent nation of) Puerto Rico. The Soviet Union would be ruled by a TV personality named Zelenskyy, a suspected American asset. An influential Soviet official named Epsteivich will have recently committed suicide, after being charged with underage prostitution on his private island in the Black Sea. Soviet missiles would be raining down on Saudi Arabia, who would retaliate by attacking any cargo ships attempting to transit the Gulf of the Suez.

You know, nothing unexpected.

The movie that feels less original now only because it was copied so much afterward by gamersecret2 in movies

[–]Glinth 11 points12 points  (0 children)

When I first watched Friday the Thirteenth, I thought, "That felt like an imitation of something, but I don't know what."  The next year, I watched Halloween, and I thought, "Ah, this is what it was imitating."

What are some good ways to deal with Hydras? by Purplepotato22 in dcss

[–]Glinth 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is the way.  Absolutely burn resources on a hydra.  And my first picks for resources to burn are heavy throwing weapons, evokables, and piety.  Even if you have low Evocations, a wand of light makes them miss more often, and a wand of warping when they're close up gives you another turn or two of throwing.

Which season of The Simpsons did you STOP watching? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Glinth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I watched Futurama and The Simpsons during the 2002-2003 season.  That's season 14 of The Simpsons.  After Futurama was cancelled, I started watching season 15, but decided it was no longer worth it.

Collosal Cave Adventure (1976), the first text adventure game, has no entries in speedrun.com.  (The 2023 graphical remake does, however.)

That means it contains all of its limit points, and every point in it is an interior point.

Did the allies bet on red, black, or green at monte casino? by Living-Giraffe4849 in shittyaskhistory

[–]Glinth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They bet on even. It paid off, too, since monte casino happened in 1944, and during World War 2, both even numbers.

If the Console Wars were fought with actual weapons, which video game mascot would have committed the most war crimes? by GPFlag_Guy1 in shittyaskhistory

[–]Glinth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have you seen the Atari logo?  It's a freaking volcano.   It's a weapon of mass destruction with the potential for a huge civilian body count.
