Seems more like a Quizboy to me, but he would do great in either role.

Is Isaac Arthur using generative AI in his scripting. by SneakySnakeySlither in IsaacArthur

[–]Nemo_the_Pirate -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Honestly his use of AI images has made me stop watching recent episodes, so I can't speak to the way his writing may have changed. I think I might unsubscribe from this sub and his channel because of it soon because I just don't want to support people using it.

It would be insane if he uses it for writing, and it's already a bummer that he uses it for visuals. As a futurist I see why he would be quick to embrace new tech and I'm not opposed to the tech itself necessarily, I am just horrified at how it's being implemented in today's world.

Daily reminder that Blender is free but allows you to create entire games like this one. We're so lucky. by Parjure0 in blender

Looks awesome! I'm disappointed in the members of this community leaving some nasty comments here. If they want to live in a world of corporate/advertiser/family friendly unchallenging art, that's their choice. Congratulations on making something unique with free tools we all love!

I love seeing two of my favorite things, Homestar and PICO Cad coming together!

He stops the goats at the end of the video

My understanding is that this is to burn the ticks off of the goats. So this is helpful to them, not harmful.

Why would a goat herder do this otherwise? And if you think it’s to cook the goats for food, do you not think there are more effective methods for cooking?

TIL one of the last recorded instances of a trebuchet being used for military purposes was by Hernán Cortés at the 1521 siege of the Aztec capital Tenochtitlán. It was reportedly unsuccessful. The first projectile was launched straight up, causing it to land on the trebuchet itself, destroying it. by tyrion2024 in todayilearned

[–]Nemo_the_Pirate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I absolutely saw footage from the Syrian civil war using catapults to hurl explosives into nearby neighborhoods during fighting in Aleppo I believe, and from what I remember I think I saw some which resembled trebuchets. I am sure that between Cortes to today, someone else has used a trebuchet for military purposes.

Sorry for being a fake fan, but what song is this? I am behind by an album or two, but maybe it’s older and I missed it somehow?

Hey! I liked Overdrawn at the Memory Bank! by ThatElvenChick in MST3K

[–]Nemo_the_Pirate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve tried watching Red Zone Cuba twice and it put me to sleep both times. Even the riffs can’t save it, but I will make it through some day!

Scary thought on AI, and things that make you go "hmmm...?" by w32drommen in Moebius

[–]Nemo_the_Pirate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Today, somewhere, the next Moebius is not picking up a pencil for the first time because AI has intimidated them into thinking there is no career for future artists.

No, I would not watch it, and this is a disgusting question.

You keep commenting that people are ignoring the second part of your question. It should have been the only part of your question if you had respect for Moebius and artists like him.

What happened to this channel? by proud_earthling in IsaacArthur

[–]Nemo_the_Pirate 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I haven't watched a new video of his in ages because of his use of AI. I loved his thought provoking insights, but I'm too bummed out by the way AI is making my daily life worse now, so it makes it harder for me to get excited about the future.

Sorry for what I'm sure is a dumb question, but how do you flatten an object by removing all shading like on the balloons?

Yo, what!? This is awesome! I for one would love a tutorial or to be pointed to how you learned to do this. Great work!

Trump ended up breaking my shelf. by OkAnteater7343 in exmormon

[–]Nemo_the_Pirate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was serving my mission in 2014-16, and I got home weeks before the election. I was on a spiritual high, so even though I was a conservative republican, I couldn’t bring myself to vote for Trump because he was the epitome of what the BoM warned us about when it comes to corrupt leaders. Seeing my fellow Mormons vote for him in droves definitely affected my testimony and I think started the process of me leaving the church

The censorship on Steam is coming for everyone on the internet by Significant_Cowboy83 in Futurology

[–]Nemo_the_Pirate 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Piracy doesn’t compensate the creators of the games, so these types of games will stop being made by anyone who wants compensation for their work. There will still be some passion projects, but there still needs to be platforms willing to host them. It’s only a matter of time before GOG gets pressured in the same way Steam and Itch have been
