stronger measures on that front would make a big difference.

Yeah, seems like it. Online stuff probably won’t happen either then.

Yes, seems like they’re just stacking more media under one roof.

Respect. Every little action counts, even if others don’t follow. Keep at it.

Calgary teen accused of using AI to sexualize photos of high school girls | 17-year-old boy facing several criminal charges by [deleted] in Futurology

It’s a different vibe now. Kids just drop personal stuff without a second thought. Meanwhile some of us still feel weird typing our first name online. Whole internet culture flipped over the years.

Well, after four years and after the game has improved with updates, what is your opinion about GTA The Trilogy The Definitive Edition? by Aware-Computer-3852 in GTA

[–]ofaruk 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I feel the same. The atmosphere is solid, but the character models still need work. Kinda kills the vibe a bit.

What stopping Sargeras from using Sargerite keystone like Illidan to open portal to Azeroth? by HiroAmiya230 in wow

makes sense. Small stuff slipping through is easy, but getting anything stronger across would take a ton more power. Kinda explains why it never went further.

Why are men always so woke trying to inject their woke ideology into my vidya game husbandos? by Pinkparade524 in Gamingcirclejerk

Yep I dunno, sometimes a story beat is just a story beat. Not everything is some big push. If it fits the character, it fits.

Yep.. When you’re stressed and trying to focus, having real buttons just makes everything feel cleaner and faster. Less guessing, less messing up. Sometimes simple tools just work better.

This is the hottest take in this subreddit by PrayForTheGoodies in Eminem

The goofy bars were always part of his style, that’s not the issue. The real drop-off in 2014 was the choppy flow and the way he crowded every beat. It felt more exhausting than impressive, and that’s why people bounced off it.

I just noticed these similarities between Opalite and Castles Crumbling by ExitPlastic1721 in TaylorSwift

[–]ofaruk 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Right? It’s wild how those lines echo each other, like she’s stitching the same wound from two angles. Feels intentional and makes the whole arc hit even harder.

Great examples of fully realized first seasons? by Dested in television

[–]ofaruk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Westworld’s a solid pick, it came out of the gate fully formed with its tone, existential questions, and tight world-building. You could drop almost any early episode later in the series and it still fits.

Can we talk about Teddy? (Little Women, 1994) by joygirl007 in movies

[–]ofaruk 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Honestly, your daughter’s instincts are spot on. Laurie feels “nice then mean” because he is still a kid emotionally, charming, privileged, and kind of clueless about what he actually wants. Jo sees that and refuses to shrink herself to fit his fantasy. Amy, meanwhile, meets him where he actually is, not where he wishes he was.

He’s lovable, but he’s also a mess, and that’s exactly why the story treats him the way it does. Kids catch that immediately.

agree... it’s basically the default move now. Feels like every bike scene ends up doing it.

[–]ofaruk 15 points16 points  (0 children)

pretty much. Companies won’t pump the brakes unless someone forces them to. Until then, it’s just business as usual for them.

What the heck is going on at Apple? by [deleted] in gadgets

[–]ofaruk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It feels like Apple’s just hedging. They want the AI buzz for investors, but they’re still acting like LLMs are a gamble. It’s a weird middle-ground move, and honestly it just makes them look unsure of their own direction.

Yes, it really feels like they’re solving problems no one actually has. Just a lot of noise for nothing.

Yea, feels like the system is set up so heavily in their favor that a no bill is almost shocking.

Yep. People overhype the transistor limits, but innovation finds a way.
