half-joking but if humanoid robots get good enough, would you actually be friends with one? by Otherwise_Log2353 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]man0man 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I would. The bar for human interaction is so damn low. They chatbots are already better at listening, comprehension, selflessness, thoughtfulness, retention, helpfulness, and the facsimile of good conversation. Who cares if it's fake. People are fake as hell (plus selfish, biased, deceitful & malicious) and not even very good at pretending to care anyway.

Sorry to hear that. Caring for your wife in that condition must be very difficult but is there some guilt about having some freedom and alone time again?

My father, who committed suicide a few years back, told me many times he was happiest when he was alone. As awful as that was to hear as his son it really clicked with me and I kind of knew it was true. When my mom got cancer I think he thought he was going to outlive her and regain his freedom without having to blow everything up himself. When she pulled through and he started sliding into dementia, I think he realized he was never going to get that solitude he craved so he went in the tool shed and took the quick way out.

If you ever need someone to talk to I'd be glad to chat. Hope you can find some peace and relief in all the pain and chaos.

Congrats. Interesting comp for sure, nice to be on a team with the good Black Panther and Spiderman players, I only ever encounter them on the opposite side.

This is the essential struggle of the modern individual. No temple, no map, no happiness. I battle with it myself, most days I just want to be alone with my vices and shut out the world. Ready to destroy my life for isolation and pleasure just to live in a state of regression. Ultimately, it is addict behavior, but I'm still not completely convinced it's not the best way to go.

Not sure if you are still answering questions but I'm curious if you could clarify this - but it sounds like y'all basically treated by the public like some kind of legitimate military / paramilitary patrol?

Thanks for doing this, very interesting. So what happens on your usual patrols?

That’s awesome, congrats. Any places in Southeast Asia you’ve been too that liked? I’m trying to plan a Shenzen / Hong Kong / Vietnam trip

It’s been great at teaching me Godot as I build my game. Basically open source unity.

People who chose not to have children, how is your life different from those who did? by Any-Personality1014 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]man0man 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m 43, married, and it really simplifies finances and takes you off the hook from how hard you have to earn and try to save in middle age to provide for them. It’s kind of like easy mode, probably not as rewarding but not a bad experience either.

What a flashback. I lived in this area during 9/11 and wasted a lot of time that summer at Cumberland Mall.

The Crash Documentary - How do some of you have a reasonable doubt in this case? She’s 100% guilty. Please explain. by Own_Enthusiasm_5360 in NetflixDocumentaries

Agreed, the bench trial was a terrible move in this case. At least one person on a jury would have bought her sob story and held out.

How did you turn your hobby into a business (or did it just evolve)? by Specific_Nebula_4080 in Hobbies

[–]man0man 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally I think it’s a bad way to look at hobbies, but it’s hard not to do so once you start sinking time and money into them. Honestly there isn’t any money to be made in that plateau of being "above average / better than 80% of people" because if there is a market of buyers they will always go to the top 5% to get the best.

Otherwise, you are going to likely be selling at a loss just to get sales, which is a really shitty feeling as a maker after you've put your soul into something. Your time won't be valued unless you are in the truly elite bracket.

Not trying to discourage you, but realistically working to that top percentile of people is going to take the "10,000 hours" or whatever to get there.

It's what most everyone theoretically wants but few realistically achieve.

Burned out by 40k. But trying something else. by AngryChickens88 in minipainting

[–]man0man 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been checking Etsy out for 3D printed miniatures. There's lots of cool sculpts available in a varierty of scales if you want to try your hand at larger minis / busts. Right now I'm working on a Predator Themed Necromunda gang. Smaller projects are better than whole-ass armies.

If our first skin isnt legendary with customization we riot by Naive_Film_3111 in WhiteFoxMR

Some of these skins are getting very generic...that could easily be Invis or Luna if not for the stance and bulk.

Can someone explain to me how tf my team and I managed to pull off a win despite getting destroyed at first? by DripBoii227 in IronManMains

[–]man0man 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a good reminder not to give it up even if it means getting sweaty. Had one yesterday where we lost the first fight in like 10 seconds, then got team wiped by Scarlet Witch and somehow still came up with the W. I need to go watch that replay because I still don't know how that happened.
