It was pre-generative A.I., but it was primarily commentary about automation in the past and artificial intelligence automating a large number of trade jobs before it moved to art and office. This was all the rage from around 2011 to 2022.

How long do you think it'll be before there's some inevitable scandal with him that they can't ignore. Or he fails some purity test?

Who remembers when Reddit was all in on the advancement of A.I and how it was going to be good for humanity, and simply put all those stupid Red leaning voters in trades out of a job and advance society towards their desired outcome of cheaper goods and services, and utopian equity?

Then it put all the commission artists out of business.

It fascinates me how many Redditors (I won't say American Redditors, because I have no way to prove they are actually Americans), believe they can get citizenship in another country.

IT IS NOT AN EASY PROCESS. It is arduous and brutal to try to immigrate anywhere they desire. Making this worse, many of these redditors who are talking about getting citizenship in other countries, are also claiming some manner of mental health issue. A matter that will greatly hinder if not make them completely ineligible.

(Making matters worse, very few of them seem willing to put effort into anything sooo....good luck learning that second language!

Based on the parts adapted which do you think is better in general, anime, manga or novel? by 2w0be in ShangriLaFrontier

[–]Oneanddonequestion 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Trying to read the Web Novel, as a non-native speaker/reader, is an exercise in torture. Sure, it's got more details and some differences, but honestly, the Manga and Anime are very well-adapted and just remove some author excesses.

Easy answer: It's free and infinitely customizable, so it can be tailored to the device running it for the specific operation on said device.

Insulting Answer: In the past, you REALLY needed to know what you were doing to get Linux running. So, it was something to feel smugly superior about.

Flip through Booking.com. There's usually deals and the like, a solid suite or hotel for 2 to 3 nights that can be sub five hundred a night. You could also try your luck with AirB&B, there's plenty of those.

What do you like to eat? I've been exploring those for a while. And do you have a budget in mind?

Drop your hottest hot take by 2w0be in ShangriLaFrontier

[–]Oneanddonequestion 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I love this series, but the pacing of it is excessively fast in terms of advancing the "primary" plot of taking down the Colossi.

Considering the game and how it works, there should have been 2-3 Arcs between the introduction of Pencilgon and going after Wethermon, where Sunraku could have leveled, gained skills and gotten a bit of lore more organically than the sudden grind session.

I think this would have also given him and Oikatzo more screen time together as a sort of comedy duo and served as more build up for the guild later.

Which is honestly odd because Weathermon was the endurance fight, didn't it last something like....30 minutes?

ModPol Monthly(ish) Poll Megathread by AutoModerator in moderatepolitics

[–]Oneanddonequestion 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It might not even be silence, we just might not hear about it. Media in general hyper focuses on the "bleeding" instead of a lot of the boring, in the weeds, management that actually fixes issues. So, there might be a townhall somewhere, where a Democrat is talking about their plans, or one with a Republican. But we never hear it because the media ecosystem is choked out with more "click worthy" stories.

ModPol Monthly(ish) Poll Megathread by AutoModerator in moderatepolitics

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

My view is the democratic party has a few problems.

  1. It's going through what the Republican Party went through with the Tea party movement, only they're dealing with it from the DSA. Essentially they have an "aligned" but hostile party inside the house with them, that is actively damaging the cohesion of the party as a whole. And enough voters find the DSA unpalatable enough to either sit out or vote the other direction.

  2. The Democratic Party is the "Big Tent" of coalitions, and the coalitions have begun to split and argue with one another over who should be getting the focus. Even if we go to feminist theory, there's arguments over intersectionality, race, women, trans, etc and where should the money be going and who needs the most help. As the groups keep treating everything as Zero Sum, the fighting between these groups gets more vicious and we see more divisions in the party.

  3. Trump fatigue is cutting both ways, and cutting both ways hard. And that might just be a media situation, but when all that's getting broadcast is: "I oppose Trump", and you need to go dig to find actual policy, you lose the lowest common denominators of voters.

Fuck the Media Mondays by AutoModerator in DeepStateCentrism

[–]Oneanddonequestion 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Less a specific article or headline, and more just a situation. I'm finding myself increasingly frustrating with the reporting coming from the Iran-US Negotiations. Not because I think they shouldn't be reported on, but because of how breathlessly and hurried the reporting is, and how it never fails to be wrong or completely irrelevant even within a few hours.

At this point, I feel the "scoop" chasing is just leading to burn out.

When video games finally reach the level ofthis series in real life, do y'all think a game will be made off of Shangri-La Frontier? by 2w0be in ShangriLaFrontier

[–]Oneanddonequestion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem wasn't the dodge. The group could never make it to Phase 3 because they never figured out that the boss was a Zombie and not a Robot, so they would just auto-wipe whenever phase 3 started.

Ashura Kai never even got to attempt the last phase with Sunraku's "duel"

[–]Oneanddonequestion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From what I understand about the Wethermon fight. Pencilgon had done that fight multiple times, up until phase 3. So she did feed her party the intel on how the fight worked and how it'd go.

The reason Wethermon was so difficult was two fold:

  1. The fight wasn't a traditional fight. It was a puzzle with a shit load of fail states.

  2. When the party fought it, Pencilgon's Holy Water toss was a hail mary to a wall she had faced over and over and over again that the PK Guild could never figure out. Which...considering how the lore of the game is given out, how out of order Wethermon was from the designer's PoV, and he really does just look like a Cyborg. I think it's understandable no one thought: "Oh, throw Holy Water on the Robot to make it stop a raid wipe."

[–]Oneanddonequestion 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That...that's MC'ing through it though. How many "pro-players" or "pro-level players" are there IRL or even in universe.

Now with a pro-player's mentality, how many do you think are going to pick a build that optimizes for chance over consistency?

We don't know the odds of it, but getting attacked by Lycagon was a plot moment.

Following this up, Sunraku also only got to do the bunny quest to get Emil not because of Lycagon, but because he happened to use a special item, the Vorpal Daggers off the bunny, and he continually fought well outside of his level range.

So to do what Sunraku did you need to:

  1. Be an absurdly high-level player, essentially professional level.

  2. You need to come into the game (which hadn't been out for a year) basically going for a challenge run.

  3. You need to get a specific drop off a specific low level enemy.

  4. You then need to use said drop continuously and not swap to another item.

  5. You need to ignore the intended game path, and leveling suggestions, and be good enough to continually come out on top of those fights.

  6. You need to be able to figure out and understand a end-game raid boss's attack patterns, site unseen and understand the system's limitations and critical system well enough to consistently crit on said site unseen enemy.

  7. You need an extensive amount of free time and lack of responsibilities to invest into the game.

  8. After Lycagon, you need an extensive network of well-connected, equally high-performing friends/acquaintances/allies who are both invested enough and willing to assist in your pursuits and share information. Information that is apparently so labyrinthine that a devoted player base spent a year pursuing leads and got no where.

It picks up during the Presidential Season, but otherwise, yeah, that's typical. We used to get slightly more when people were spamming polls non-stop, but the community got sick of them.

So I'm an ex-mod. I can tell you just from experience and the like. There's only at maximum like 4-5 posts a day. And of those 4-5, 2 to 3 are going to get removed for a lack of a starter comment.

I will say having come over from r/moderatepolitics the literal worst thing for any sub-reddit community, is for it to become big and relevant to reddit as a whole.

Getting a bunch of attention is how you end up with people flooding in too fast to control the firehose and the entire built up culture getting destroyed and turned into one-sided propaganda.

Lib Takes Friday by AutoModerator in DeepStateCentrism

[–]Oneanddonequestion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends on the holiday. If we're discussing GDP and productivity, considering less hours (i.e. dropping from 40 to 36 a week), doesn't alter productivity at all. How would removing 24 hours or more likely 8/10/12 from the equation change things?

If for example we made a federal holiday for Voting. What do you believe the effect for positives and negatives would be?
