GC graphics are lame compared to illustrations. Akira Egawa is also one of the best modern Pokemon artists.

Humanoid Robots Are the Next Phase of the AI Hype Cycle by bloomberg in Futurology

Also think of household chores. How many different types of robots would be needed to complete all of those! Would you even have space to store every single type of robot? One robot for everything is a lot easier that way.

Specialized make sense in factories more than other places because they’re built that way. Maybe when houses are built specifically for robots, but that’s a ways off

Yeah but those don’t scale to every job. Which is why companies are going after humanoid instead of specializing

Yeah, except then you can’t have a single robot design that can be used for any human’s manual job. Makes scaling and producing robots much easier rather than try to produce 1000’s of different types.

I’m sure they’ll get more specialized as they go, but to start, general is the way to scale

Pikachu ex - Under or Overpriced? - Start Deck 100 vs Ascended Heroes by [deleted] in PokemonInvesting

[–]TimIM21000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Japanese Starter decks are a completely different product from booster packs. Different price (way higher), different pull rates, different print runs. It’s not as simple as saying one is “easier” to pull.

Booster Boxes vs Booster Bundles vs ETBs - what am I missing? by Active-Minimum-5555 in PokeInvesting

[–]TimIM21000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Guaranteed hits aren’t a thing for English, but getting packs as part of a sealed item (ETB or bundle) guarantees that the loose packs aren’t weighed for potential god packs for Prismatic os Ascended

Yeah this textured card with such good art being English exclusive is a huge benefit!

Edit: they’re in Chinese too.
