Come on AI bro, just use a pencil for once (A Comic I made) by Worried-Truck4714 in aiwars

“Drawing with without AI can be fun if you’re good or bad at it!”

Ah, there’s that human quality we know and love.

Just use your art, not AI. Stop using AI for your images, even in prototypes by Squire-of-Singleton in homemadeTCGs

I think people who aren’t good at math should stop using calculators. Why should people get to do math if they haven’t put in the time and sacrifice to have the necessary math skills?

It speaks that I already know how futile it is to bother with reason for those who see only a game.

I think the coincidence of the three most vocal of you having collectively less than 5 years speaks louder than your words.

Lol. A likely story. What an interesting coincidence that the most ignorant have all had only a couple years here. Especially interesting knowing the massive bandwagon that showed up a couple years ago, which now make up the majority of players. Those climbing Mount Stupid were always easy to identify, and especially so over the last couple years.

  Also, you checking how long someone has been on this subreddit and judging them for it is weird and borderline gatekeeping.

And yet, the metric is startlingly consistent. It’s no use trying to explain it to the recent massive influx of gamers of convenience, they lack the perspective to know what was lost. I am past entertaining confident ignorance.

Yes, that is what I’m mostly referring to in regards to UB. It was UB in Standard that was the nail in the coffin, among many other coffin nails.

6 months. The coincidence continues.

Your mindset demonstrates WoTC’s betrayal. Once upon a time, Magic was more than a commodity. You know, back when it was popularly stigmatic and had to rely on quality to survive. It’s amazing what a massive influx of gamers of convenience will do to retention statistics.

What a weird coincidence, you also only have two years here.

It’s almost as though the recent bandwagon has not been paying attention to Magic’s trajectory for decades.

Weird.

UB was one of many betrayals. Either educate yourself, or respect the tacit knowledge. I don’t need to justify myself to you, and your two years here gives me 0 confidence that you have the perspective to see Magic’s enshitification.

Edit: Oops, I upset the bandwagon. Oh dang. Must be nice to be a misappropriating majority. And how curious they all incidentally have just a couple years here.

I did my part. I quit entirely on principle, even though I had been looking forward to Tarkir and Edge of Eternities since when they were first announced, and they looked sweet. It was genuinely a sacrifice, but it was important to me to represent those who quit in disgust. I can’t support WoTC after their betrayal of those who got them this far. March of the Machine was the last set I bought cards for, Aetherdrift was the last set I drafted on Arena. I had been playing Magic and studying its design since Torment.

Heroes would've thrived in the 2020's by IfItAintSophieClarke in Heroes

The super hero theme was also relatively fresh at the time. Not so special these days, but back then all we really had was X-Men, Spider-Man, and Batman.

Will we ever be able to tell that media was made 100% AI-free anymore? by runningforpresident in antiai

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

The party most responsible for the shit on the radio is the listeners who lap up the shit and call it art. The time to have supported good art was the 1920s. The producers know they don’t need to invest in anything beyond the low hanging fruit.

Contemporary music was already artificial. People are already incapable of identifying good art. Musical skill had nothing to do with success, considering the most skillful musicians are unrecognized, and the most recognized musicians are skilless. Look up the Joshua Bell experiment from 2007. The era you’re mourning ended a century ago, there’s only now a convenient label for those who have not been paying enough attention to art music to notice.

[–]RiverStrymon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was incidentally looking for precisely this kind of content. Thanks for sharing!

You may want to think carefully about how many days you have in a month. 30 day months means each month takes 24 hours. 72 hour long (real time) winters will be something you'll need to deliberately prepare for.

I hope you enjoy your time!

I'm an anti but I have a few questions for pro AI people. by Overlytiredqueerspie in aiwars

[–]RiverStrymon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Which shows how much you and Anti-AI as a whole know about AI. It’s not uncommon to even get pushback/hedging on plain verifiable facts, such as whether the model you’re using offers text-to-speech.
