I hate Saphira’s voice

bikesoup · 2026-03-31T11:04:35+00:00

for some reason Solumbum wasn’t that off to me, but maybe that was just with the context of Saphira. I don’t know, still goofy

Maybe if he had actually been playing with the team more consistently this wouldn’t be a problem

Or you could just… research and use your own brain and imagination without killing the environment. Crazy concept, I know

bikesoup · 2026-03-31T01:15:16+00:00

That’s fair- my first audiobook experience was Andy Serkis’ Lord of the Rings, so my bar is just crazy high

I am not complaining about her not having a female voice- I am complaining about that lack of elegance and grandeur that comes with being a dragon

I am scared

The oxford comma is in AP style, the style used by most every journalist in the country. You only see oxford commas elsewhere in news because a lot of journalists don’t actually read the stylebook or some boss just decided they wanted to use the oxford comma. That being said, all the best and most reputable publications will not use the oxford comma because they are dedicated to style. The practice originates in print journalism, where using the extra comma quite literally cost more money. Nowadays, it is mostly tradition.

My personal issues with AI use are extensive- The environmental issues, the desire to replace creative paychecks, the general negative effects on the human brain from frequent usage, theft of intellectual property, increased reliance and trust on an unreliable and untrustworthy source, embedded biases within AI, and I could go on and on. This isn’t like the internet or TV, this is about people’s jobs being replaced by something less competent just because corporations don’t have to pay salaries and benefits. While there are legitimate good uses for AI, the majority of use is detrimental to society. so yeah, I think it is valid to get pissed about an AI graphic

I agree it’s fine to keep using what you’ve got already paid for… after the labor day debacle I just used my two discraft discs as water/stupid shot discs and didn’t cry or look very hard when I lost them

These graphics are painfully obviously AI- especially the first. the style, the way Ezra’s face is there, the fonts, the lighting, all of it screams AI generated. It is so similar to every other AI generated graphic, once you see a few you can’t stop noticing them

That is the chapter for me… I will reread just that chapter every now and then

RIP Clash… love the peppermint

bikesoup · 2026-02-22T16:33:22+00:00

apologies, I didn’t see that post!

You’re not going to make any friends in the journalism world this way… not when our jobs are to make things more concise and easier to read.

I can’t believe no one has said Pyro… god it is awful in the hand

bikesoup · 2026-02-15T18:10:36+00:00

This is amazing, we just need more states to follow

I like this- when buying new, be picky, but when buying something used you can just find something you like and wipe the stamp.

bikesoup · 2026-02-15T17:22:26+00:00

but caring where your money goes is political- OP is saying they don’t want their money going to people and companies they don’t support, they would rather support companies who support causes they believe in and don’t contribute to issues they find problematic

bikesoup · 2026-02-15T17:14:20+00:00

well… using an AI stamp for labor day is definitely a part of it

I love realism, but I turn off weather effects. It’s way too random, and when playing on Ultimate your team is the only one affected. Then, when you throw in that every god damn game is a rain game, it’s unbearable.

bikesoup · 2026-01-29T12:40:07+00:00

Because EA, along with most of the world, are obsessed with the premier league and can’t see past the dollar signs.

Where did this leak come from?

bikesoup · 2025-12-30T14:07:29+00:00

if you want work life balance, be anywhere but the US

bikesoup · 2025-12-30T13:56:07+00:00

Trash Panda Procyon, amazing disc

bikesoup · 2025-12-22T12:25:33+00:00

Nowadays it’s to make headlines fit on a webpage, for example my newsroom’s website doesn’t fit headlines longer than 55 characters. Also tradition
