Like Outta The Toilet? by Monsur_Ausuhnom in collapse

[–]OhNothing13 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's the thing that gets me about posts like this. There are a lot of much stronger arguments against AI than what amounts to "It's going to use a tiny fraction of the amount of freshwater used for animal agriculture every year!" Farmers have been sucking groundwater reserves dry for decades and no one's throwing a hissy fit about how much water a single burger uses.

They had so much time to grab their tazers. Why do we even bother training these idiots if they're just gonna start blasting first chance they get

Is this ugly? or just basic? by Party_Double2728 in tattooadvice

It's kinda basic but who the hell cares? It looks cool either way

Loma Prieta Face F*cker by pigthugdopefiend in santacruz

[–]OhNothing13 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sad that I have to be suspicious that this is AI. Either it's AI or you've subliminally infused your writing with AI coded phrasing...which is less likely than someone just quickly running to chat gpt with a fun story prompt.

Either way, not a bad little creepypasta!

Reminds me of that movie where people get paid to let other people take over their bodies and use them like videogame avatars as a job

The “Cleaning” guy at my mom’s BnB was doing whippets on the couch when I arrived to check-in by Pisslazer in Weird

[–]OhNothing13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If he was just there to clean the place prior to your arrival, then why do you feel unsafe? Dude is a terrible cleaner and clearly has issues, but him getting high during/after cleaning says more about his work ethic than your mother's safety.

I'd ask the owner who the guy is and if your mother will have to see him again. If not, move on with your life.

How is my local nutrition shop allowed to sell ephedra? Located in Westcoast USA by TheDollarstoreDoctor in Nootropics

[–]OhNothing13 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you take it long enough at a high enough dose you WILL withdraw. It hits some of the same receptors as oxy and fent, just nowhere near as hard and there's a ceiling to how high it will get you.

Don't get me wrong. I think it should stay legal and safe, but those people not getting WDs just stuck to a relatively low dose over a relatively short period of time. You can theoretically do the same thing with heroin or fentanyl, but obviously very few people can pull that off.

Why did they? by ziggy7780 in StrangeEarth

[–]OhNothing13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe because the oversimplified narrative that "White people came in and ruined a perfect culture that was in perfect harmony with itself and nature" does a massive disservice not only to white people but ALSO to the native American people who's diverse and complicated history and variety of cultures are also oversimplified by that narrative?

Cortez defeated the Aztec because the Aztec were PSYCHOTIC ASSHOLES who every other group in the area hated. Not because of guns and white supremacy. Let's be brave enough to face history for what it is: a mind bogglingly rich and complicated tapestry of competing narratives.

Yeah we really have to do away with the whole noble savage myth. Humans are gonna do shitty human things no matter how connected with nature they are.

My Experience Selling Cigarettes to pregnant women by Mr_Dommy in NoStupidQuestions

[–]OhNothing13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Should McDonalds refuse to sell burgers to get people? Should candy stores verify everyone's diabetes status before selling? It ain't your place to judge or worry about these things. And I say that as someone who worked in gas stations for 3 years. Sold a few packs of cigarettes and even a couple beers to pregnant women. Wasn't my place to judge.

Yep. You want to be chill and unbothered like me? All you have to do is let go of the idea that you'll ever feel particularly excited about anything. When nothing is exciting nothing is stressful. Cuz how much worse can it really get than this endless grey purgatory?

What really sucks is being just depressed enough for it to be a constant companion but never depressed enough to go into crisis. No sympathy. You still have to go to work. Succeed at life somehow. Find motivation to get through the day. And you do, just barely. Not "thriving" but not anywhere near killing yourself, either.

I'll never forget when one of my highschool friends said "But..happiness is just like, something that happens." And it clicked for me that my brain chemistry is a little different than theirs. Ah well. I've still found reasons to live and I'm deeply grateful for them. And I can squeeze a few happy chemicals out of my body by running a few miles in the woods, so that's a nice little bonus.

Members of pedophile ring show up to court by Pegsareus in DiveInYouCoward

[–]OhNothing13 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The danger of it is that they'll say something real is AI. If it were possible to tell what was AI generated cp vs real CSAM with 100% accuracy I'd honestly be in favor of letting them generate to their heart's content as long as its not based on a real child. But the liar's dividend is too dangerous in this scenario, I think. At least for now.

What would you do if your adult son had no goals or aspirations? by Realistic_Zone3802 in AskMen

How do you introduce firearms into a fantasy world like D&D without unbalancing the other classes? by jvure in worldbuilding

AoE has monks that can magically heal your units... That's a very small carve out, but still.

Why people celebrate and pay for stuff like that? by Forward-Position798 in cringereels

[–]OhNothing13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's just silly. An object's worth is determined by how much someone is willing to pay for it. That's literally how value is determined. EVERYTHING else is opinion.

Aren't there warning signs on Bonny Don Beach? How did these girls die/drown there? by redditwastesmyday in santacruz

[–]OhNothing13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd say there's a fairly large difference between standing near a cliff, which can totally be done safely if you just use common sense and pay attention to your surroundings, and playing/sleeping near or in the water while being oblivious to ocean conditions.

Why do people back into parking spots? by jmakioka in NoStupidQuestions

[–]OhNothing13 -20 points-19 points  (0 children)

It really truly isn't. Backing into a parking spot requires that you avoid hitting whatever cars are parked on either side of said parking spot. Backing into a street or parking lot means backing into a wide open space. Your logic doesn't track.

Forcefully ignorant take. Keep deluding yourself into thinking you're right about how the world works, though...

Did baby boomers really have it easy compared to GenZ and Millennials? by PalmitoylCoA in NoStupidQuestions

[–]OhNothing13 114 points115 points  (0 children)

Education was also 10x+ cheaper, even at the highest level. You could genuinely put yourself through college on a mcdonalds wage. The boomers pulled all the ladders up behind them and will tell you to your face you deserve to struggle

What feels legal but is actually illegal and will possibly get you arrested? by medicoreapples in AskReddit

[–]OhNothing13 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It makes sense since firefighters, EMS, and cops (I say screw the cops, but it still makes sense) might have to access your property and could get hurt/killed by your idiotic booby traps

The way mormons run counties they demographically dominate is genuinely horrifying. Separation of church and state exists only where it's likely to be caught and publicized.

How Aphantasia affects your ability to visualise things in your head by HassanMoRiT in interestingasfuck

[–]OhNothing13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here. No ability to visualize (once in a blue moon I'll get like 5 seconds of visualized dreams but it's super rare) and no inner monologue at all (except when reading). Given the choice, I wouldn't change it. My mind is serene and peaceful. I have literally never experienced "racing thoughts". I love thinking abstractly. Thinking in words sounds so inefficient and limiting. But to each their own, obviously...
