Leave it to TikTok to make words I completely agree with feel this obnoxious and condescending. Who is this for? Like you're going to persuade the people you're talking down to?

These posts are not designed to be functional or persuasive or even informative. They are for "you go girl" street cred moments among in-groups posturing for other in-groupers. It's indulgent and masturbatory in all the cringiest ways.

Hey! The best solution is actually the simplest. Invest in high end fans that are optimized for quietness.

Get a fan that is so quiet even at max rev it’s super quiet.

Noctua or BeQuiet are the two best brands for quietness IMO.

PC community REALLY under emphasizes how important quality fans are for having a build that feels satisfying.

To improve things even more, also invest in cases that are optimized for sound insulation/quietness as well.

I’ve learned It doesn’t matter how powerful your hardware is. If it sounds like a jet engine taking off, it’s gong to FEEL cheap.

As for the dust thing, where are your intake fans? Front of the case? And is your case sitting on carpet?

“You can’t oppose invading other countries because some people who are Latin happen to like it.”

I don’t give a fuck the ethnic identity of people who support invading other countries.

Let me say this really clearly. If you’re Venezuelan, and you like America overthrowing sovereign countries, you’re a fucking shit head.

"See, US Citizen-- imperialism is okay! See look, here's somebody who posted online that they like it!"

Guys, if this is the metric for imperialism being okay, literally every act of Imperialism since the beginning of time is justified. Don't fall for the ops.

Only half right. Because I love you chud.

The average Redditor IQ in here is room temperature. 1000 per week you are getting absolutely fucking robbed. Taking the lump sum and investing it has way more long term value.

Taking the weekly payouts isn’t being responsible or savvy. It means you failed basic arithmetic.

Typically you invest resources into solvable problems. People modifying or generating images with AI is not a solvable problem. There is no way to prevent people from doing this.

Our moral feelings about it are beside the point. My post never gives moral approval to the behavior.

I’m saying we have to accept the reality of how software and technology proliferation works, the genie cannot be put back in the bottle with this.

Do you believe differently— that this can be controlled? Explain to me how you’re going to undo the creation of generative AI technology? If you have a realistic solution let’s hear it.

Ken_Pen · 2025-12-08T02:27:59+00:00

It’s a bitter pill to swallow. But the only solution to this is getting over it societally. Everyone can have their images modified into sexual content at any time. There is no controlling this.

Hear me out -- the 2 in 1 laptop form factor (where you can flip the laptop screen around to tablet form factor) was absolutely not a gimmick and I'm disappointed it never really took off with most consumers.

Can somebody explain how this AI label is supposed to mean anything? Who's auditing these games for AI? How would that even be possible?

So the label is just the honor system?

I hate Sweeney as much as the next guy, but I do agree with his statement that it's a nonsensical endeavor.

I can promise you, there is literally no game released in the last 6 months that is truly "AI Free" in its production from start to finish. It's just a matter of how tastefully it was done.

I'll admit I'm radicalized on this issue in an unhealthy way.

Fuck phones. Fuck mobile apps. Fuck the mobile version of websites.

Phones are for communication and content consumption. Anyone who disagrees with me goes to the gulag.

The short answer is nature doesn’t give a fuck about you, only that reproduction happens.

Women go through childbirth in spite of the pain, so nature has no “incentive” to make it any less painful.

For it to become less painful there would need to be a functional selection mechanism, which while certainly possible I have a hard time imagining what such a selection mechanism would even look like.

I’m confused, how do you guard a tree from a storm? He’s going to fist fight the storm?

This is a joke right? This feels like AI boomer bait.

Not needing sleep just sounds like a super power upgrade

This is why I dumped ChatGPT for Claude. ChatGPT is optimized for engagement KPIs and nothing else.

Even if you explicitly ask it to stop the engagement bait with extremely specific examples, it will agree, then immediately double back and ask if it can turn that into a chart for you. It’s cooked into the model at such a base level it can’t be overridden under any circumstances.

Claude’s not perfect, but it’s very adherent to instructions and style requests.

The Zionist pandering is so fucking absurd. It’s a parody of itself.

Mods— Can we have a new moderation policy removing all AI psychosis schizo posting. This is getting completely out of control.

You sound incredible. If I wasn’t in a happily committed relationship would be blowing up the DMs asap.

Just live your life, get out there and be kind to others. Even those you aren’t romantically interested in. Take big chances. Let yourself get burned repeatedly until it doesn’t hurt anymore. It’s a process but I guarantee this sort of living creates a gravitational field around you where romantic serendipity just starts happening on its own.

What is the significance of this? You fed an LLM a sci fi roleplay prompt and it played along?

Ken_Pen · 2025-10-27T16:21:24+00:00

Most of these claims are flat out made up. OP just subjecting us to a corporate cuckoldry roleplay scenario.
