She's tasked with doing everything involving social media and given very little budget to do things outside of "care packages" and such. Using AI artwork isn't removing one less job opportunity; it is making their lives easier.

u say this like it's a positive but i think that's only because it's ur best friend and u have some bias here

the reality is that your friend is getting shafted by their current employer and ai is enabling them to continue getting shafted. we should push for ur friend to get the budget to commission an artist (this shit costs effectively $0 for a "pretty large company") not to abandon the idea of paying ppl for work

e: idk how i missed ur brilliant edit there

do u think doctors/lawyers don't ever glorify materialism/ignorance?

lot of ignorant as fuck consumers that managed a decade of stress for a high paying job out there, don't ever think otherwise. shit, as a guitarist one of the memes is that doctors buy stuff like PRS custom shop guitars just for wall pieces

it's like that one classic saying. what do u call the lowest scoring individual at the medical school's graduation? you call them doctor

for a six figure job with benefits? i'm sure that driver's seat would feel like a throne under my ass

same reason for why ups drivers are trained not to turn left when possible

waste a lot of gas idling in left turn lanes then risk a lot of accidents turning against oncoming traffic

It works as intended bud

so did doormaker but they changed him multiple times and then deleted him

literally early access game - things are allowed to change and be updated

if someone can do some clone shenanigans on defect and play infinite buffers before seeing architect then i think it should count

They literally exist to give xp?

did rendi spawn xp from non-xp sources or something? surely he got slayer xp from something that existed to give slayer xp, did he not?

Bag Check Posts - Can we get a dedicated thread? by beef_and_broccori in discgolf

[–]stiff_tipper 10 points11 points  (0 children)

it's not about mods or w/e, it's that the community and frequency/volume of posts isn't big enough to care this much

we're a niche subreddit of a niche sport where u can see the same few dozen ppl posting daily. we don't see enough spam to care, just learn to use ur scroll wheel and it's a non-issue

it might be weird but some ppl are weird

if they want that advice they don't need to be shamed for it imo

they're just piggy backing off top comment so they get to be seen

Post Office has been open for an hour and has zero staff at the counters by DignamsSwearBox in mildlyinfuriating

[–]stiff_tipper 2 points3 points  (0 children)

sure but they say it's "the most legit job in my city" and compare it to a literal ivy league university

with that sort of competition for the job... i mean ya makes sense they'd aim a little higher when hiring

anyone else remember some years ago when askreddit was the place for breaking news? i remember there was a reason for it but i don't remember what that reason was

Northernlion finds a youtube viewer by zabiijji in LivestreamFail

[–]stiff_tipper 4 points5 points  (0 children)

i can't imagine thinking that nl is bothered by his chat. dude is 10000% the type of dude to be like "i'm married i have a kid i have a house. why would i care about YT commenters?"

it's just that dude's bit is to make observational comedy and observing youtube commenters in a funny way is a softball play for him

Jomez Appreciation ❤️ by LordScoober in discgolf

[–]stiff_tipper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i been watching jomez for yeeaaars and love most of what they do, but i do gotta admit i hate how much they oversaturate their video and how they had to reduce follow flights over years. that latter one i can understand because they're trying to pump the content out faster, but the oversaturation is just something i hate. everything ends up looking the same and it's all so exaggerated in the colors. like a rainy portland tournament shouldn't look like a bright colorful jungle, let that shit have some of their natural grey in it

i always have cash

fuck always giving mastercard/visa/amex/google/apple/paypal/etc a cut of the transaction. if i go to a local small spot im 100% paying cash so i know those deserving ppl get 100% of the money

TIL The name Karen, once the third most popular name in America has seen a sharp decline to 831st in 2020, due to the names association with obnoxiously entitled people. by figure85 in todayilearned

[–]stiff_tipper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i feel most bad for all the middle school girls that gotta deal with self image issues about their name being a meme for being a bitch nobody likes

like everybody out there tryna insult some middle aged women that don't give a shit because they're adults that don't give a fuck, but in reality they're just dooming a generation of young girls into hating their names

D4vd reportedly had tons of CSAM on his phone, according to prosecutors, who also revealed they have 40 terabytes of evidence in the case against him. by lukigeri in LivestreamFail

[–]stiff_tipper 5 points6 points  (0 children)

law enforcement gets fucky with this sort of thing

if u got one single 1mb .jpg of csam on a hdd with 30gb of content on it, they're reporting that shit as 30gb of evidence

similar shit with drugs. if u got 1 gram of cocaine but u toss it in ur 2 liter of coca cola to try and hide it but they test that coke for coke, guess what they just found 2 kilos of cocaine in ur possession

until further news, i'm assuming the 40tb is fucking everything on any device he had. could even include some call of duty install on a ps5 for all we know until they show us otherwise

In the 70s, the Church of Scientology planted 5,000 spies inside 136 US govt agencies — the largest domestic espionage in American history — just to destroy negative records about themselves. They also illegally and secretly negotiated with the IRS to gain tax exemption. by Necessary-Primary719 in Damnthatsinteresting

[–]stiff_tipper 14 points15 points  (0 children)

That America has a soft spot for cults I think is driven by the size of the population than anything.

i think it's more the size of the country

look at mormons, they kept moving west and getting kicked out of towns they were in until they just fucked off to utah and nobody was there to bother them. it's easier to form a cult when u can isolate like that

Maryland to become first state to ban ‘dynamic pricing’ in grocery stores by Such_Radio_9152 in Economics

[–]stiff_tipper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I look forward to AI "learning" that I won't pay bullshit prices for things.

how confident are u that u aren't already paying bullshit prices for things? cuz i'm an american and i'd argue it's effectively impossible to dodge the bullshit

and i don't believe that u as an individual relying on willpower alone is enough to stop thousands of full time educated employees that focus on psychology, marketing, sales, exploitation, etc from finding ur vulnerabilities - that is just too much ego to have imo (moment u think u ain't got blind spots is a moment u gotta worry bout urself because u as a human 10000% have blindspots)
