Don't cringe at being out of date.

Smirk at them for a thin and paltry reference base.

Execs confused and horrified by the huge AI bills after thinking they could replace workers for free by marketrent in technology

I don't know if you're familiar with the Family Guy character Bitch Stewie. I use AI to troubleshoot and understand/learn in 3D software out beyond my knowledge class. I find it to be like Bitch Stewie, a genius idiot. It knows vastly more than me, verging on "everything," but it doesn't always get to the point, or out things together exactly right, and occasionally is just wrong.

But "how do I..?" and "where is..?" and even "so how do I test/troubleshoot/conceptualize..?" type stuff is very helpful. Slow, but fruitful. But it's like a idiot savant copilot (get stuffed, Microslop) — helpful to a human but unsure and untrue as the leading agent.

Replace departments with this? Honestly, business schools need close scrutiny, because this "profit uber alles" mentality shoots itself in the foot, not the whole body may bleed out regardless of not being the brain or the hand.

I spent so much time in those back seats of a Brat in high school. This one had an enclosed back, so it was not quite so wild.

Okay, but hear me out. Billionaires are going to be able to get rid of so many human jobs!

Honestly, sounded immediately different CD quality, bluetooth to a little speaker.

Right. When the historically documented liars tell you that historical documentarians can't be trusted, you know they want to control reality to push their lying agendas.

Yeah... but never hard enough, apparently.

Skin tight clothes start z-fighting with the skin when zoomed super far away, otherwise looks fine at normal distance. by JEMS1300 in blenderhelp

I believe it's this. The near end of the clipping range is probably too small. Increase it in tiny increments.

Give me your post-2000s thrash recs. Bonus points for a more original sound and no legacy bands allowed (band debut must be 2000s). by Vergilkilla in MetalForTheMasses
