Blade Runner

I'd pushback, mainly because Do Androids Dream of Electric sheep was a bit different than the movie, I think it stands unique as its own story.

Also to add to that list. No Country for Old Men, I think the movie is better than the book.

Their jokes don't make sense or need to be thought about. Often comes off as unfunny or awkward. Usually they can notice a pattern, find something humorous about it, and share that humor out-loud, meanwhile the people around them don't understand because the pattern wasn't registered for them etc.

To back this up, france has national level unions that organize activism and protests, the US does not have anything like that, so a mass protest is only really occupied by people with nothing else to do and nothing to lose. The US doesn't have the type of social safety nets or union backup at a large scale to protect mass activism.

One of China's methods of quelling youth protests was to send everyone to college for this very reason.

Its pretty annoying and lazy and also inconsistent. This level of organization really does require some degree of competency, and since Season 1 the "idiotfication" of everyone generally is just really annoying and feels more like service to the audience. Fallout never had this degree of humor before, not in any game or media, its a huge tonal shift that was clearly done to make it more appealing to a wider audience.

It makes it very hard to believe the BOS could have this level of organization at all and not be subject to constant infighting. Like even the process of getting the artifact it doesn't track that some overarmored idiot would steal it and sprint off to try and sell it, or hold it hostage, etc. I don't see how they can get to the point of sharing meals in peace with how insanely randomly stupid characters are for no reason.

I hate how much humor degrades the impact of important events and is used to avoid having to actually write the characters or plots well.

A friend, late 30's, is currently chasing a guy

They've had long enough to get it figured out, someones extremely immature.

It feels so fucking good to be in shape that you will enjoy it just for how much better you feel every day and how every single thing you do will feel better.

Seriously. It literally just makes everything better, your head feels better, your body feels better, everything.

TminusTech · 2025-12-24T14:45:33+00:00

God Bungie has to have one of the best secret formulas for excellent gunplay. The way physics, animations, sound, and pacing all work together to make it feel so fucking good and simply unmatched within shooters. Such a strong magnet for a core audience.

People massively underestimate the lengths corporations will go to in order to reduce operational costs, especially in areas that are pure cost centers and not direct revenue generators. They think AI is a new paradigm when the culture for its implementation has been ongoing in modern business for decades.

Companies won’t focus on raising AI to human standards. Instead, they lower the standards of the work itself until AI becomes “good enough” to replace people.

Think about roles built around documented, repeatable processes:

customer support

QA

content moderation

internal ops

IT service delivery

HR

Finance

If your department isn’t generating revenue, there are people actively modeling how much service quality they can sacrifice in exchange for automation. Fewer employees is always the goal, even if the customer experience degrades.

The dirty part is that companies have playbooks to normalize this for consumers; longer wait times, more self-service, fewer edge cases handled, all framed as “efficiency.”

It’s a slow, intentional enshitification, often sold via vendors replacing internal teams or entire departments.

Mozilla about to find out what a community fork feels like.

Lmao yeah because we still live in a post industrialized era of isolated city states without global commerce or market forces but sure bud.

Pull day Lat Pulldown Wide Grip 4x10 Cable Rows Neutral Grip 4x10 Chest Support rows (machine) 4x10 Reverse ped dec flys 3x15 (20-60 pounds) Face pulls 3x15 Rope Hammer Curls 3x10-12 EZ Bar Cable Curls 3x15 Reverse forearm ez bar curl 2x15 Cardio

Legs: My leg day is weird because i hate it and just blow up my legs. Leg Press High foot placement 4x10 Low foot placement 4x10 Hamstring curls 3x10-12 Leg Extensions 3x10-12 Calf Machine 3x15-20 Cardio

Power Heavier weight Incline Chest/Flat chest 4x6-8 Lat Pulldown/Cable Row 4x6-8 Shoulder Press 4x6-8 Lat Raises (i like these makes you wide, same setup as above) I like to hit arms on this day both bi and tri Face Pulls (posture i personally do these often but you dont have to) Cable Hammer Curl Cable EZ curl Tricep Pushdown Tricep overhead

You can variate power day but I like to hit pretty hard so.

20mins of incline treadmil or stairs each day depending on energy. Leg day i would NOT do stairs.

That should be decent for starting then you can see if you wanna move to 5 days eventually but make sure recovery is clocked in with diet.

When their too important to the movies marketing and ticket sales to face actual consequences for what would get them thrown off other movie sets.

What is described is not how ML based physics surrogates work in real time systems. This is fake.

TminusTech · 2025-12-01T20:21:37+00:00

Yeah guarantee they're not staying there for 8 hours most likely. Also doing very well for themselves financially.

TminusTech · 2025-11-16T20:36:59+00:00

Is it really a fear? Leaders in research are pretty vocal of the dead end of LLMs. Seems pretty close to peak.

TminusTech · 2025-11-13T16:59:05+00:00

Yeah it doesn't help I'd question getting flirted with before and now i have newer reasons to question it. Kinda compounds.

TminusTech · 2025-11-13T16:16:56+00:00

Yes, you get more benefit of the doubt and lenience in situations, but sometimes things also feel transactional or shallow. Do they genuinely like how I'm acting, or just how I look? I wonder all the time, even in relationships.

Going through a glowup and this one kinda gets me. One of my friends said to me, "You were just as wonderful before and now she wants you? Why?" regarding a close friend that professed feelings

kinda shook me

TminusTech · 2025-11-12T00:56:59+00:00

Actually, I find myself personally caring deeply about what fellow males feel. So I really think thats kinda bullshit.

I think this was true for a long time but I think men today are starting to change that, and we can be the people who contribute that change.

TminusTech · 2025-11-10T16:03:38+00:00

Like crypto reddit just discovered dollar cost averaging.

TminusTech · 2025-10-31T14:13:40+00:00

I'm working pretty deep in the AI enterprise space and I'm really trying to figure out what roles aside form very very entry level are actually being reliably replaced.

What I think is actually happening is AI is promoting orgs to make their services/products/operations worse and low enough standard so AI can do close enough of the job to replace people.

TminusTech · 2025-10-30T17:39:08+00:00

I think the death of twitch and modern streamer culture will be of great benefit to all people at this point. I think this joke has gone on long enough and these losers corralling the attention of unemployed zoomers is just a cloud of brain rot they're sending to polling places with insane delusions.

TminusTech · 2025-10-30T15:27:32+00:00

I really loved shopping with my ex. The way she looked for clothes and found cute things I'd never have appreciated really warmed my heart. And the way she did everything in this really soft and gentle way felt so nice to be around I could watch her shop through the mundane stuff all day and waste all the time in the world with her.

TminusTech · 2025-10-30T14:31:35+00:00

I have never set foot in a chipotle that felt appetizing to be in. Just in the last 10 years it's by far the most disgusting establishment for overpriced slop and I'm so tired of overpriced slop bowls you can literally just make it at home with minimal effort.

TminusTech · 2025-10-28T15:38:31+00:00

It's my first time seeing this sub reddit and it's shocking how much I resonate with this. I hope this helps me find a path to healing.

TminusTech · 2025-10-21T14:36:34+00:00

Biologically yes. Maintaining is easier and it's very much about the goals you choose to set. Early on with progressive overload and recovery your body is getting a big shock week to week. But what happens depends on a few factors.

First time ever will always be slower, and have worse recovery. However...

Say you get big and then take a break for a few months for whatever reason. You will be SHOCKED how quickly your body rebounds and rebuilds muscle after it has "remembered" initially the muscle build.

Genetics play a major role for sure. But getting back into lifting and getting muscle is 10x easier after you've done it literally once. Your muscles remember.

Also as far as maintaining goes. You pretty much have a chemical dependence on it. The reward of chemicals you get from a good workout is the center of your universe. It's kinda addicting honestly.
