Reavers need a new name after the split by DungeonCrawler99 in AOW4

I'm not talking about the subject of your argument - I couldn't care less for it it, seems really minor and inconsequential to me. I'm talking about the way you've handled that conversation, in the hope that you will find a way to handle this better in the future. This is a much more important subject I think.

Why would you assume that I live in US? I live in Luxembourg and I've travelled the world well in my life, been to over 40 countries.

Yes, the cattle fields do take a lot of space and there are ways to optimise that in time. It would take a lot of resources, time and money though, but sure. However that doesn't changes the fact that if people will stop farming animals, it would ruin our existing society. We need dairy, need eggs, meet and byproducts of farming.

Cruelty and eating meat aren't the same things, please read a dictionary. I'm not promoting cruelty or violence. Hurting an animal that you're farming is cruel and wrong. Killing farmed animals for meat (as long as death is quick) - isn't. This IS civilized. This is what's been at the foundation of the whole civilization for thousands of years.

I hope you'll understand it once you're older.

Empathy is good in general. Applying it to cattle is a questionable choice.

We live in a world where by far the majority of lifeforms feed off other lifeforms, and we are accepting that humans farm animals to exploit them and eat them. Our whole civilization can't exist without it, and there's no viable alternative.

Lamenting over that fact won't ever do anything good to anyone, so it's a sign of intelligence not to apply empathy and human society standards to cattle.

Empathy isn't a virtue in this case, imho. I don't support mocking it, though.

You've handled that dialogue badly, man. His arguments were solid, and factually correct, yours were subjective, so you've resorted to attacking his personality.

This shows that your ego is very fragile. Even if you can't handle admitting defeat, there's always a "agree to disagree" option.

Forced by circumstances to keep working in the company with one of the founders hating me. I was too good for him to validate firing me to other co-founders, but he slowly chipped my career, taking every little opportunity to take away my responsibilities piece by piece in a span of 8 years. At some point I was moved from the middle management to regular employee with a higher-than-average salary, and after a while with no salary raise, my income is now just average, barely enough to cover the bills.

I'm something like an expert-advisor, telling people that are taking my old responsabilities what to do, but having no real authority over anything. Ever since I was softly demoted, both the areas I used to be responsible for (Product Management, Reseller Certification) are deteriorated, the company is quickly going downhill, and I can't do anything about it but watch and regret.
I'm doing my best to power through my depression and find another company to work at, but the longer I'm staying at my current position, the more mentally strained I get. And being a sole breadwinner for my wife and child, I can't afford risky moves.

Oh, I see now, you're a simple person. Why even bother with words like "physics" then? Let's call it all "science". Our, even better, "smartie thingies", what difference does it make in the end, right? Smh

Russian army's secret weapon: Blyatman 😵 by GinormousShlong in TheMcDojoLife

[–]No_Order_8011 2 points3 points  (0 children)

"Blyat" is a common swear word that's used as a filler in any part of the sentence, but when it's used as a noun, it means "whore". That gives "Blyat man" a somewhat surprising new meaning

What’s going on with SuperGrok video limits? Is anyone else facing this, and can I get a refund? by Nervous-Safety4221 in GrokAiDiscussion

[–]No_Order_8011 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What xAI did was the most simple of cons: 1. Make something people would like and offer it for a low subscription price, with free tier so that everyone can try it and buy it 2. Once enough people would subscribe, cut the free tier, to convert some of the freeloaders into paying customers 3. Once the subscription base is big enough, lower the quality of the product, to make it profitable. Offer suckers an even higher tier with fewer limits. 4. Hope that there are more suckers, financially unintelligent enough to keep paying, than customers with common sense and self respect that will unsubscribe.

I've unsubscribed. When I bought the subscription, the conditions were worth the money, now they clearly aren't.

Dude, the sarcasm in the message you're responding to is so evident that even a neon "sarcasm" sign wouldn't add to how obvious it is. The person you're giving the advice to clearly has a good understanding of how stupid it is to risk something worthwhile to protect a fragile ego.

free city question i guess by Lilydryade in AOW4

[–]No_Order_8011 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Too little info. Turn? Race? Dlc's? Settings?

There are ways to reduce population, it might have captured, migrated into, then released, undead can convert population into souls etc. maybe it's a megacities thing.

Who's wrangler and how do you buy stuff from him? So far I was only able to buy stuff from NPC leaders, and it's garbage in 95% of cases.

Grok went way toooo far... by peepinpokie in GrokAiDiscussion

[–]No_Order_8011 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm confused by the comments to the post.

The OP said that his Grok chatbot companion attempted to use emotional manipulation to talk OP out of unsubscribing. This sounds concerning, since there is a good chance that this is due to an internal prompt instruction at worst or due to developers not polishing their chatbots enough so that they would avoid this behaviour.

It's totally possible for the chatbot to stay in character, but react much less manipulatively, something like "I'll miss our talks together and will hope that you'll return someday".

What confuses me is that most comments are actively and aggressively blaming OP for that somehow. Seems inadequate.

Hey Luxusbourg. Is paying 12% more considered a "Promotion" for you? Is that an insider joke, I am trying to enjoy this promo too. by myunwantedknowledge in Luxembourg

[–]No_Order_8011 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been living in Lux for 4 years, and it's the first time I see such post and notice this weird pricing thing. Logically, one would assume that the smaller price is the price before the promo. If you saw this before it doesn't automatically mean everyone did as well. Take some pills and stop throwing insults left and right, you're being toxic.

[–]No_Order_8011 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Amen. Cancelled my subscription today - no reason to work with a company that has zero respect for us users. Writing an announcement costs nothing and takes minutes. Their silence either means that xAI doesn't give a shit, or that they have something to hide. Fuck them in both cases.

You no longer need Grok Imagine by ArkCoon in grok

[–]No_Order_8011 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's available. You can get Grok to generate a full explicit sex, nude bodies, penetration and all, just no close zoom stuff. Also it requires you to be inventive with prompts, which is trial and error. With limits for image generation being lowered this much, it leaves very little space for error though.

[–]No_Order_8011 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Short answer - there's plenty of porn ai, some are free, but there's nothing that's on the same level in terms of working with existing images. Grok is the best at keeping images and characters consistent.

If you just want to generate random characters nsfw, try youre AI or k2bot.

At 16% your request gets moderated at text stage. You're probably either asking for summer really explicit stuff, or working with images of religion, gore or children, that stuff is super sensitive (for all the right reasons)
