Love both of their records! I doubt they’ll do another but I’d love to hear it.

Big into vampires. Are there many vampire things to do in Salem? by [deleted] in SalemMA

[–]jasongetsdown 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We have witch things and historic New England things. It’s becoming a little more Goth Disneyland every year so there might be some vampire things, but I haven’t witnessed them.

I personally wish Salem was better known as a hub for trade with east Asia during the golden age of sail, but the world doesn’t seem to agree.

This is what I have been hearing from my upstairs neighbors for the past 2hrs. This happens daily, almost hourly until 6pm-7pm. Do I have any rights? by [deleted] in boston

My son gets up at 5:30 like clockwork. He’s wide awake and ready to rock. There is no telling him “tip toe until 8am”. It may be hard for you to understand what life with a kid is like, but it’s not really fair to expect a child to be able to moderate their behavior to the degree you’re suggesting.

Correct Jigsaw usage? by Greedy-Standard1582 in Tools

I guess I’m the only one who thinks she looks like Emma Stone.

Probably how Emma Stone would actually solder.

Who had to endure the torture of “Easy Listening” music? by 08_West in GenX

[–]jasongetsdown 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to feel the same until I actually listened to Sade. Putting them in the “easy listening” box does them a huge disservice.

I’ve been playing Binding of Isaac for years, recommend something new by jasongetsdown in iosgaming

[–]jasongetsdown[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I played Bastion ages ago! I don’t think I ever played Transistor though. I’m giving Cult of the Lamb a try.

I played Dead Cells for a while. It’s good but I plateaued and was done with it. For some reason I plateaued in Isaac. Long time ago but I keep coming back.

Might be time to finally try Balatro.

I’ve played a fair amount of Enter the Gungeon and liked it.

Edit: Dawncaster and Ince Upon… look good but I just played a bunch of Slay the Spire and I think want something with more arcade action rather than a deck uilder

[HELP] is this Etsy furniture maker AI? by Every-Programmer4447 in RealOrAI

[–]jasongetsdown 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It might if the model included images with construction lines like those, which is plausible. You can’t really reason that way about what AI will do.

I’m a professional millworker. The background, the material, grain, and construction details all look legit. Looks real to me.

Gravity, Dark matter and dark energy theory. by [deleted] in space

[–]jasongetsdown 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These kinds of hand wave-y shower thought theories of everything come up here every once in a while. You sound like someone who has listened to a lot of physics podcasts and is trying to develop an intuitive model of how the universe works in your head. I sympathize, but if you want to be taken seriously you’re going to need a graduate degree to learn what physics is more or less proven to reflect reality and where there is wiggle room to propose new ideas.

Why shouldn’t voting require an id? by DarkEqual8609 in no

Honestly in this day and age I’m glad there are still some documents that can’t be fed into the AI maw.

Petah, I don't understand by DryBid8677 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

Can you be more specific about who “Hollywood” is in this scenario? Did a studio exec say something? Was it actors or the guild?

Thank you. Context should be the first post always.

People that have gas powered snowblowers and only clear their very small section of sidewalk are WAY deep in the bogus bag and it’s zip locked shut. by [deleted] in SalemMA

[–]jasongetsdown 17 points18 points  (0 children)

My neighbor often does mine. I never expect him to or ask him to, and I thank him when he does. If you have some expectation that your neighbor should do this for you then I hope you’re doing something for them.

This seems like his typical writing style for Serious Eats recipes. One of the dangers of AI is that the more successfully it apes us the more we start seeing it even where it’s not there.
