You can only really pull that with older people and children. Most of us millennials can spot the patterns AI gen produces, but I've seen my dad just consume the content and be largely unaware of the fact that it was artificially generated. He constantly complains those videos say nothing but watches tons of them anyways, mostly related to non-news about sports.
That's interesting. Toronto often fills in for other major metros that are more expensive to film in like Chicago or New York relatively effortlessly. San Francisco seems more difficult to fill in for. I'm interested in how they pull it off as a local Torontonian. I'm hopeful to see random locations I know when they venture off the campus.
Either that or it's just going to all be inside Pinewood itself. From what I understand it has some of the largest stage space available in the region.
It's also only valuable if people keep contributing to it. It's highly likely the majority of current existing reddit data has been largely incorporated into many LLMs prior to the API access limiting. Google paying them 60 million dollars is a hilarious pittance to keep training their LLMs, given how much money AI services will likely generate off of the training data.
I don't actively use reddit anymore, but when I need an answer to something that isn't programming-related, it's usually the top source on any given web search. That kind of content is basically the only stuff I would give a shit about. I can't imagine how much absolute garbage you have to sift through on the platform to get reliable training data. Maybe the ratio is terrible and that's why Google paid so little.
Actually part of their IPO paperwork lists WSB as a potential positive benefit to the stock, in terms of having a clear userbase that will theoretically help sustain the value through shenanigans. That, to me, however, sounds like a securities violation waiting to happen.
I don't check reddit anymore. Does WSB actually consider this stock to be, uh, actually valuable? Every corner of the internet I've seen discuss this topic have all noted how worthless they think the shares are going to be. My money is on them shorting it.
I had two accounts, one had been scrubbed and was mostly used for commenting, and the other was a porn alt.
The porn alt has hundreds of thousands of karma and it got multiple IPO messages while the original, older account got nothing due to being sub 5k on posts.
Edit: Suspicions confirmed!
Reddit is planning six tiers of early access based on each “participant’s contributions to Reddit,” the company said in its updated SEC filing. Those tiers are based on a user’s “karma” score, ostensibly an aggregate total of up/down votes on posts and comments.
The first tier of users will be those “who have meaningfully contributed to Reddit community programs,” though what that means isn’t explained more clearly. After that come tier 2 users, who must hold at least 200,000 karma points or have taken at least 5,000 moderator actions. Tier three includes users and moderators who hold at least 100,000 karma points and have taken 2,500 moderator actions. Tiers 4 and 5 are each half of the previous tier’s total, and tier 6 includes everyone else, with a waitlist available if the total number of shares purchased exceeds the original 1.76 million.
"Our company doesn't make money, it also is projected to not be able to continue to make money. We've attempted multiple ways of monetizing the userbase, all of which has not recouped costs. We value ourselves at 6.4 billion dollars."
My doctor started handing off the fees to his patients. You want a skin tag removed? 50 bucks. You want a sick note? 50 bucks. Alternatively, you can pay for a subscription of like 200 dollars a year or something to cover all of those electives.
It's stupid. What happened to "do no harm"? I guess it doesn't count when it's financial harm.
I pay my fucking taxes. Allot them correctly so I don't have to double pay my physicians because you've decided to allocate taxes to nonsense bullshit instead of core social welfare programs.
Fuck Rob Doug Ford and the Cons. They're bleeding the healthcare system dry so they can claim it's a failure and privatize it. They spend more money subsidizing private clinics and hospitals than actually funding the regular ones.
Temporal Prime Directive typically means not messing with the past. I think it would be a bigger violation to bring them back to their original timeline depending on how much knowledge they had attained of the parallel future. I think your final point of Starfleet having no way to know the natural development of either timeline is the key here. There's a reason it's a Temporal Prime Directive and not a Multiversal Prime Directive, which is putting Starfleet in kind of a divine arbiter position of deciding what is the correct path of history for any given universe.
It feels like many things leak through weird anomalies, and parallel realities are shown and dismissed without a second thought. Like in Voyager, both Harry Kim and Naomi Wildman are technically from an alternate reality having crossed through the anomalies to the surviving ship's timeline. Everybody just kind of welcomed him with open arms while acknowledging that the universe is just a super strange place.
If the accident was an anomaly and not an experiment, Starfleet probably wouldn't really care. They would find them and determine how disruptive they may be through an interrogation with a full telepath Betazoid and let them loose on a Federation world with an equivalent lifestyle to their era and locale. Unless this was like some kind of potential intergalactic criminal, it's just some dude who deserves to live out their life as normally as possible given the situation. If it was an experiment, though, they probably would just confine the dude until a badmiral decided to try to have them recreate the universe-hopping device or otherwise consult them on how to safeguard against the intrusions.
I think the precedent would be the way that the Kelpians and Saru were treated with the Prime Directive. Saru having knowledge of what was beyond his planet essentially allowed him to be uplifted individually. If somebody crossed over similarly having knowledge beyond their planet in the same way could potentially also be uplifted and serve in Starfleet in some capacity, but my money is on anomaly dude just wanting to vibe somewhere chill. Otherwise, it's as dangerous as anybody from the Mirror timeline would be, and they typically defend against trans-universal attacks like that, so I would assume the fugitive would be considered hostile.
You don't need to sign up for forums for them to be searched through.
The point is that Discord is an information black hole. It's all contained within the server, unindexed, private, hidden, and entirely gone if the server gets deleted.
Yeah and right now we're all raving that Helldivers 2 is great.
The point is that on average these massive conglomerates of corporate shareholder-driven studios are not soulful because they have the soul beat out of them. Devs have tons of soul, but if it ends up in the final product is ultimately a decision of the management, and they have had the souls sucked out of them.
There are still soulful games, but on average the industry is soulless.
Could very well be that recent. It's been a while since I played and paid attention to the development and happenings of the game.
Either way, it was something we'd been asking for since the start of the game, and I'm really happy new players get to experience it right out of the box!
