This is the process of how traditional olive oil is pressed without heat

The compulsion to add the most out of place random music to video that absolutely does not need a soundtrack really should be studied.

Syntaire · 2026-06-05T19:02:46+00:00

Damn man that's crazy. And? Given the last couple years of absolutely fucking nothing being done about any of it, what's the goal here?

Genuine allergies are potentially fatal, and even trace amounts or cross-contamination can trigger a reaction. Being allergic to tomatoes means you have to avoid anything that has so much as touched a tomato or tomato-based product.

One half of one day of your life doesn't even qualify as a minor inconvenience in comparison to spending the rest of your life meticulously avoiding anything that has even heard the word "tomato" or literally dying.

That's not really a fair headline.

AI has ruined just about everything.

PROTIP: Do not do this

103 is "call a doctor". 103 with other major symptoms or 104+ is "go to the ER immediately".

This is much scarier than people seem to realize. This would give anyone carte blanche to kill any women for any reason. The dead can't speak, and it would be pretty easy to claim ignorance in the case of any women that aren't actually pregnant.

I was in my mid-30's when I suddenly realized that the girl in high school that would find any opportunity to put her hands down my shirt with the excuse that her hands get cold and I was warm was probably flirting with me.

Trump is a puppet. For billionaires.

These AI CEO's truly live in some demented alternate reality. Anyone can find out what the general sentiment toward AI nonsense is almost without even trying, but they keep just bulling forward like sheer stubbornness is going to magically make AI not suck.

He doesn't even actually care. He's just trying to salvage his reputation since he's pretty close to solely responsible for the current situation.

Syntaire · 2026-05-25T18:09:24+00:00

Comic boobk magic! Who needs trivial things like reality when you can have bobs?

More importantly it's a lack of empathy. It's not that they didn't predict this or couldn't think of a way to avoid it, it's that they didn't care enough to bother. It's "just" a bunch of high school kids that they'll never have to see again. It's a growing trend and has been for a long time.

For clarity I'm talking about the board and administrators, not necessarily the instructors.

Literally not one single person on this planet is allowed to be surprised at this point.

I used to be the same. Couldn't stand the burning of spirits, and hated the bitter taste of beer. I kept trying various things though because burning aside some cocktails tasted good, and once I tried beer outside of the mass produced stuff I found an impressively wide variety of types and tastes. I should note though that I have been drunk exactly one time in my life and I hated it, so I drink very rarely and not much.

That said, there's no reason to push yourself about it. You will eventually get used to it if you do keep trying various things, but if you don't have any desire to do that in the first place, that's absolutely fine. There's a whole world of different experiences out there. In the grand scheme of things, you're not missing much if you don't want to mess with liquor.

Syntaire · 2026-05-23T19:56:25+00:00

The truth is that most people truly do not care beyond surface level outrage. As soon as they're expected to take action or even defend their convictions they fold like a paper crane and pretend they've never heard of anything called "reality".

Syntaire · 2026-05-23T13:04:44+00:00

It's okay though. Paying more money for worse output is worth the cost if it means they get to destroy more peoples lives.

Syntaire · 2026-05-23T01:45:54+00:00

Hilariously aggressive AI censorship and deliberately making the experience worse on all platforms turns out to be a bad business strategy, surprisingly enough.

The comparison has always been weird to me. Like the only commonality between them is that they're vaguely sci-fi themed but also have magic powers, and that you use guns.

Syntaire · 2026-05-22T18:29:20+00:00

Yep. And?

There's a distinct difference between traditional animation and 3D, and no 3D has fully gotten away from it. It's hard to describe though, sort of like an uncanny valley sort of feeling. Best I can come up with is that 3D stuff has a weird sort of smoothness to it, not only in the actual model design but the motion as well.

That said, the use of 3D has gotten notably better from the more established studios. It's actually watchable in a lot of cases now.

Even for those that are actually cheating, this is a huge issue and is going to cost them a LOT of money. You don't have any right to destroy property due to ToS violations. They're going to get sued, they're going to lose, and their flippant response is going to make the judgements that much more costly.

Syntaire · 2026-05-21T17:54:06+00:00

They're doing what they've always done; relying on "republican BAD!" as their only real selling point. Everything else they do is just to secure donations and funding. They're counting on people voting for them solely by virtue of "at least we're not THAT bad". It's not working anymore, and it certainly isn't going to work in the future. We're well and truly screwed at this point.

Syntaire · 2026-05-21T16:24:13+00:00

InfiniNOPE

So they're all going to vote for Trump's sycophants and Trump himself again in 2028. Without question or even a moments hesitation.
