It's Neco Arc Astolfo. X post from supposed OP

"Nets are likely more expensive than living wages" How do you figure?

More over, even if nets were less expensive than a living wage, how would that make the company any less evil?

Yeah, AI text extraction can be very powerful. It's arguably the thing that neural network systems are best at, and one of the first things. We got them to do.

There's alot of promise in using this kind of tech for quickly digitizing massive swathes of books. The more complicated part, however, is converting any images in-layed in the text.

Volkswagen has a pretty awesome one but it costs like 10k more for that level of trim.

I am partial to the windshield projection style. It is truly fantastic for keeping your eyes on the road while seeing your speed

It's for sitting when you hold your homie's hair back while they upchuck.

Cyberpunk depicts a techno-integrated capitalist hellscape in the same way. They essentially take ideas to extreme conclusions to show how hellish things will get.

Steampunk's alittle different, but the satirical depiction of colonialism is pretty punk.

Anti-intellectuals by don't double-check their facts.

Yes, but the whole aesthetic of steam punk is fantastical machines that operate on Victorian-era technology, which would be coal-fire steam engines.

That's got a nice ring to it. You should put that on your tombstone when you say something that pisses off the wrong person.

Speech may be protected, but what you say still has consequences, as it can bring others to action, either for or against you.

Sex is a myth. We made it up. Biology does not fit cleanly into silly boxes me make up.

Gender is also a myth. It is treated as something humans naturally do, when it is something that society has to enforce for it to even seem real.

We are monkeys that would do as we please were it not for bigots making boxes and trying to corral others into them.

You are talking about the outcome being pointless, but I'd go further and say that the process of completing college is bullshit as well.

Forced to live in shoebox dorm room for the first year or more in many colleges, being given lectures that are quite simply shit the majority of the time - to the point that it was the norm to just stop attending lectures and basically just self-teach yourself the textbook - and often taking tests that fail to actually meaningfully test your comprehension of the subject. Then you leave, and quite often you completely forget a large portion of what you studied as you enter the job market and never have to apply that knowledge again.

Steal his look: Divine Powers, Healing, Immortality.

anyone get this to work on steam deck? hasn't worked for me yet.

So how do you pay off your tit loan? Like, how is it different from rent-a-tit? Am I going to end up getting loaned 30 tits and have to pay back annual tit interest? Am I going to have to give them fractions of a tit? Where do I get more tits?

It's all very messy.

"The wild boar I drugged with fentanyl is under the bed , about to wake up."

It just needed a comma, not more words. An 'and' would have also sufficed.

Edit: also your correction communicates that the bed is about to wake up instead of the boar.

Do note that it is the same person in each picture. Nihilism is to absurdism as pasta is to spaghetti.

Yeeeaaahh, we really did turn a tool which was supposedly meant to enhance our performance in the real world into a world of its own, that's often mentally addictive and exploitative.

At the same time, the real world is properly fucked right now, where individuals are highly isolated from one another and there are financial barriers at every turn. I don't blame folks who get stuck in a spot where they only have people they want to interact with online.

I mean, we can point at the legal system, but as you said, casinos just find new loopholes to circumvent the law. Ultimately, Valve is the group with the power to remove any gambling-adjacent mechanics from their games, but they have been pretty flaccid regarding changes because they know that they will lose money from it.

Crackdowns won't stop the gambling on CS, legislation and enforcement won't change it, but making items non-tradeable, or damaging item value or appeal through any method, can stop the gambling - but at the cost of CS's financial success and overall appeal.

It's a bit weird (skip to 10:41 for specifically the pay system)
