Haha, the whole image is what was generated, including the monitor and surroundings.

My boss's favorite saying is to just make logical decisions.

I can't take him/her seriously because he/she is a Mormon and that's the least logical decision you can make.

The ramblings of an absolute madman. This is what they've been demanding your respect for.

Unfortunately it's burned into my memory one way or another, yet it still blends into the surrounding years.

One of my best friends moved out of state and we went to Colorado to send him off, I got back and my dad was sick (not COVID at least), he passed away exactly a week before my birthday. The next month I went on a trip to Vegas through work (I was encouraged to keep the plan despite the circumstances... Ultimately it was a positive experience overall).

A remarkable year personally in good ways and bad, but another stone in the stream of upheavals in recent years overall.

To summarize: the video opens on a series of games, each one progressively older, overlaid with a review of that game from the time it came out praising it as the best graphical fidelity of its time. Basically, they're saying "Yes, graphics got better, but we always seem to conclude that they're the best they will ever be"

A little bit of cultural linguistics going on really. Even though the texts are also calling OOP gay and queer, and doing so with the same amount of vitriol as with the f-slur, they aren't recognized as emotionally charged in the same way. All the other cursing is not hate speech per se as it's not directly targeting any immutable characteristics.

I used to enjoy it, but over time I ended up in a similar boat. Just a huge bust of anxiety, especially socially. But on the other hand, I feel pretty okay in the day to day. I've come to see it as a sort of forced introspection - not necessarily revealing anything I don't already know about, but bringing it all to the surface and forcing the mind to see it. In that respect, it could still be drawing a line between feeling and how things are going.

Not that it makes it necessarily more universal, but I think there's a grain of truth.

I was just joshing you, playing a little trick, I think it's for atheism.

I'll be honest, for a minute I thought it was not a flaw but referring to "Monday Me, on Monday" which is a concept I can relate to

I love this idea. Unfortunately, I think it's just a slightly unnatural vocal performance. Even though AI can perfectly replicate voices tonally, they can't truly generate the same cadence and inflections, or sometimes even get close without a good deal of human assistance. I suspect this will change over time. As with ChatGPT, we'll be looking to AI to solve the problem of AI mimicking humans too well.

There is a single precedent I can think of, which is that with some regularity I see infants/newborns referred to as "it".

Some YouTubers I know who are trans or who have come out as trans since I started watching and are still doing their own thing: GameChamp3000 (game challenge videos and recently some trivia), DaThings (YTP style videos), Shammy/Joy (game review/critique), and probably a few others that aren't coming to mind right now. I'd argue Jim (Stephanie) Sterling hasn't really changed though trans issues do come up more often. I haven't watched Philosophy Tube recently but I do believe she still does videos on general philosophical concepts.

Hah, to be fair the guy is literally producing a movie. Honestly I think his semi regular content has taken dives a few times while he works on big projects, but YMMV whether it bothers you or not.

Maybe I started watching late but Weissman always kind of struck me as trying too hard on the comedy bits, but I don't mind because it is good knowledge nonetheless. My biggest issue is that he's a little on the pretentious side and he occasionally uses fancy/expensive/inaccessible ingredients or tools, but that's really just a personal problem for me.

If you'd like a VERY thorough explanation, check out QuentinReviews video on Fred. The very condensed version is that he got tired of the character and sold the channel, which immediately started producing generic throwaway content and quickly failed.

I don't watch his current content but it was bittersweet seeing the transition from his original style. He mentioned at the time that he had depression during that period and it seemed like the change was a lifestyle one as well; he seemed pretty happy around that time.

I don't think it's just a feeling of futility - it's true phones can be distracting and offer more potential entertainment, and it's true learning can sometimes be a slog. At the same time, learning can be fun and engaging, and phones can offer access to a wealth of information (of highly varying quality, admittedly).

Concentrating too hard on mere academic success as gauged by metrics like school grades is undoubtedly discouraging for a student who only goes to school if they are told they must.

Essentially true but thoroughly reductive. Like saying "live music is all about saying look at me play all these notes"

I think legal semantics might just be beside the point. I believe she knew the possibility was there and accepted it, but the answer she was looking for is "how far does it go" when a person essentially publicly forfeits their rights. Blanket consent, the forfeiture of those rights, they don't fundamentally change that this is a person.

For most people, it doesn't matter unless it's happening near them. Source: Texan.
