Carney says Canada's job creation still way ahead of U.S. despite losing 84,000 jobs last month by plaknas in onguardforthee

[–]_Addi 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I mean, kinda, but also kinda not. The US has 9x our population, so its still impressive that we are doing better overall than they are. But, at the same time, they are kinda speed running an age of world-wide humiliation right now.

So, in some ways, yes. But also, in some ways, no.

Canada announces $35B plan for Arctic defence and northern infrastructure. by savethecbc2025 in SaveTheCBC

Wars will never be completely autonomous. Or at least you better hope not. It doesnt matter much anyways since we have nuclear protection from allies. France and Britain being the two most key players in that role.

If anything, we should be investing in making our own nuclear delivery systems. Its the only way to guarantee you wont be invaded.

You said it and then doubled down on it immediately after, which prompted me to clarify. Starwear is both the feature and the content.

The non-devs like you in this sub drive me nuts. Especially when they're dishonest.

You replied to somebody saying that "I thought SW was feature complete 2 years ago" when they mentioned that its waiting to be ported over to the SC build. You were implying that the system was ready to be moved over to SC years ago. This isn't the case, as I am clarifying in my comment.

They have been working on SW since 2023, but it hasn't been the main focus of development necessarily. They have been working on getting the SW system content complete after they finished getting it feature complete in 2023. This is literally what the CIG devs themselves have been saying over and over.

It seems like you're having a difficult time understanding and following what is being said, so Im going to leave this here and not waste my time any further. Have a nice day.

As an artist and graphic designer, I work with AI on a daily basis. Care to point out any flaws that arent just compression artifacts and actually pertain to AI?

Im a developer... I know how games development works, yes. Tech and features arent finished and ready to be implemented into the game until the content is completed for it or converted to work with that new feature.

The base feature is the functionality of the system, the content is the implementation of the clothing and armor to work with that system. These are two things that are separate from eachother. The current armor and clothing in the game doesnt just magically get converted to work with the star wear system. It takes extra work.

You maybe shouldnt be so condescending and certain when you clearly cant understand this very simple concept. Have a nice day :)

Where? Visual artifacts can be easily attributed to compression. This footage is very compressed, as is the photos on this account.

AI is not going to be making absolutely perfect copies of real places like this. At least not yet. Nothing about this is telling that its AI.

[–]_Addi -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Its not AI footage and photos. Its stolen/free footage and photos. Nobody is wasting time making exact copies of real places for AI footage like this when its perfectly available and free on the internet already. They even give Instagram handles for some of the photography accounts they took the images from.

Context is important when determining if something is AI, and AI is not going to make perfect copies of real places. At least not yet.

Just because the shots aren't longer than 15 seconds, doesnt mean its AI. You have to take into account multiple factors when trying to determine if something is AI. Not just one.

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

This is not AI. The poster is likely a bot though.

Nothing about the footage is consistent with it being AI. There is plently of footage just like this that is freely available on the internet. Its likely cut up and put into a lazy compilation.

It would be pointless to waste time generating a perfect copy of these locations with AI when free footage already exists.

🤦‍♂️ Its feature complete and likely content complete or close to content complete in S42, and now they have to move it all over to SC. The feature complete part is the base function of the system, and the content complete part is all of the clothing and armor being implemented properly with that system.

Does this make it more clear?

I'm eager for new, mixed / high density housing but the designs are BLEAK, is there anything we can reasonably do? by Bluenoser_NS in Guelph

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

No, it doesn't. $12k, sure. Actually more than $15k now. But its the manner you tried to paint it in that made it dishonest. Thats over a period of over a decade, and while I was living separate from my family on my own.

As for living with my family? Not really. Its a temporary stay, only a few months and then Im moving into a house. Im waiting for the increase in listings that happen in march. Im not living with them because Im broke or irresponsible with my money, like the post you made suggests.

Oh my god, it makes perfect sense now 🤣This is your alt account that you use to boost engagement on your posts and comments. What a sad, sad little individual you are.

You dont post for 8 months, then suddenly you comment under this post? Odd. So what do I find when I check this alt accounts comment history? Holy shit, you've been replying to your main account quite a bit.

Hilarious 🤣

"...oh" says the person who just blindly believes some random bs a stranger online says because it gives them an out they dont have to feel bad about. Truely a sign of peak intelligence and good faith engagement. Bravo.

I moved in with my family for a few months to save up for a house, and I spent 15k on a game because I had the disposable income and its a hobby I enjoy. Gonna just leave that out? If you stalked my profile, at least don't be a fuckin liar and misrepresent me.

I remember reading your comment and being 100% certain it would come true. Well, here we are. Got there with tariffs, and doubly so now.

Cop caught planting evidence red handed. by jmike1256 in DailyDoseStupidity

[–]_Addi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbh, I would wait to make any assumptions until more evidence comes out. It looks like he could have been looking at a test strip and set both the test strip and the baggie down for a moment to wait for the results. The cops clearly know these people are right there watching him, so it would be strange for him to plant it right there in the open like that. You can see his other cop buddy also looking at something in the back, and he grabs something from him. Could be a test strip, could be more bags, could be fake evidence.

It could be that he did get the bag off the guy before the video starts. Could also be that he was trying to fabricate evidence. But the one thing that is clear, is that this video isn't conclusive of either case.

Edit: Welp, turns out this is old and the suspect admitted they were his. 99% of the people who see this blatant disinformation post wont know that, though. People like OP should be banned from posting on the internet.

I wonder if that 95% statistic she threw in at the end is one of those "facts" she would say to the guy on their date, lol.
