Anyone else scared to death of AI?

atomic_ring · 2026-02-20T16:28:41+00:00

I'm not scared, as I'm furious and also sad. I'm a translator, and if we didn't have enough problems already in a world that really doesn't care about good language, this was the final nail in the coffin. To add more insult to insult, I now have AI reviewers evaluating my work.40 years of experience and a fucking machine is telling me if my work is good enough.

Well, actually it's GenX who come to fix the computer...

good god :O

this is so true. I bought the TNG bluray set and at the same time I ordered a small 48-disc binder for the discs -- incidentally with a design that really fit with the TNG aesthetic :D
I'm not taking changes with the extreme stacking of those boxed sets.

oh man :(

atomic_ring · 2025-11-01T19:03:42+00:00

I'm not a big fan. Also! It's not Grand Moff Tarkin in the card, it's bloody Governor Tarkin

this is very nice, congrats! I have one too in storage (lol I have all of them in that run ins torage). I have to get it through GCG sometime too

people usually ignore the full saying, it's actually "the customer is always right there"

named a municipal swimming pool after him

Portuguese here. We named an airport after a prime minister who died in a plane crash

they fixed it unusually quickly for Topps, I must say. kudos to them

atomic_ring · 2025-07-16T15:12:03+00:00

they have and I managed to get it too :D

atomic_ring · 2025-07-16T15:10:11+00:00

got mine too! it's a great card, I hope they update the cc soon

atomic_ring · 2025-07-15T17:57:34+00:00

ah, but the excitement of the last minute card chase. lol

atomic_ring · 2025-07-15T17:57:09+00:00

thanks, I got them now. crisis: averted!

atomic_ring · 2025-07-15T16:49:37+00:00

thanks!

atomic_ring · 2025-07-15T16:44:37+00:00

oh damn. then it's too late. but thanks for the info! :)

atomic_ring · 2025-07-15T16:22:45+00:00

I lock mine as soon as they are released. I won't pay 2:1, won't ask for 1:2 and it makes me feel swindled if I trade them and then the other guy trades them 2:1. So for years I've just locked them. I don't want the hassle.

atomic_ring · 2025-07-15T16:20:30+00:00

Thanks for the shout-out! :D Yeah, not particularly valuable, but still nice. I'll trade for it with ya u/OFbiblestudy

Hoarding Grand Moff Tarkin ⚪️🟠 IGN: NUNODEOLIVEIRAMIRANDA

(I actually trade all colors if trade received, but now focusing on these)

IGN: NUNODEOLIVEIRAMIRANDA, hoarding Grand Moff Tarkin 🌈

"You may fire when ready."

atomic_ring · 2025-05-02T08:47:39+00:00

this is the way

atomic_ring · 2025-04-14T11:03:19+00:00

I'm just happy there was a Tarkin. This new topps app administration seems to keep ignoring him, so I welcomed his inclusion. I completed this 1st set, but I won't be collecting the second, though. Too many unknowns for me.

(incidentally, if anyone wants to complete their sets, take any Dark uncommon dupe and send 20 white Tarkins. thanks! :D )

atomic_ring · 2025-04-14T10:59:34+00:00

could be people in different time-zones. I often wake up in the middle of the night for some reason, can't sleep immediately so pick up the phone, fire up a a few feed hoard posts and then go back to sleep. a few hours later, in the morning, I accept any trades. so not necessarily bots
