  • How do I explain my reluctance to use generative AI in good faith?

    跳过

  • Explain how AI haters or doubters cross over with Veganism at all as a comparison?

    They're both taking a moral stance regarding their consumption despite large swathes of society considering these choices to be morally neutral or even good. I've been vegan for almost a decade and dislike AI, and while I don't think being anti-AI is quite as ostracizing as being vegan, the comparison definitely seems reasonable to me. The behaviour of rabid meat eaters and fervent AI supporters are also quite similar.

  • What game or platform has the best character creation setting?

    跳过

  • It's admittedly been a while since I've played Skyrim (probably over a decade), but can't you just make a save right after the character creation? Or does it not let you save during the escape sequence at the beginning?

  • I do believe I have been changed for the better

  • My highschool geography/criminology teacher. He'd routinely make us discuss current events in class, and really make us analyse the points we brought up. It really helped guide me into making my own opinions rather than just accepting things at face value.

    Shout-out to great teachers. Thanks Mr. Robin!

  • If every video game was to be destroyed but you had the chance to save five games, what would you choose to save?

    跳过

  • The testing elements in Portal 2's maps are technically Turing-complete, and people have made very simple "computers" with them. Here's a video from 2012 of someone building logic gates.

    There's also VScript which PortalRunner on YouTube used to port an NES emulator and make a web server. Their channel is really good if you like this type of silly hacky fun.

  • Please help me under stand my spouse's gift and their hurt

    跳过

  • If this is your reaction to someone describing cute things they've done with their partner, I honestly feel kinda sorry for you.

    what's the most mundane hill you're willing to die on?

  • No one pronounces "JPEG" with a ph sound, though.

    what's the most mundane hill you're willing to die on?

    跳过

  • Fun fact! The word milk has been used for plant-based liquids and saps since at least the 14th century.

    Die away upon your hill, but historical and popular usage disagree with you :P

  • What minor, everyday inconvenience, if magically removed for everyone on earth, would collectively save humanity years of cumulative frustration?

    跳过

  • For junk mail, it might be worth checking if there's any way to opt-out with the postal service in your jurisdiction.

    I know where I live (Canada), you just have to place a notice on your mailbox that reads "No unaddressed advertising".

  • What do you simply not mention to people?

    跳过

  • Tomatoes, cabbage, and onions, that's a lot of vegetables in one meal! Are you one of them removed f*gs?

  • What do you simply not mention to people?

    跳过

  • The amount of people worried about my nutrition as a vegan but who wouldn't bat an eye at someone eating McDonald's every day...

  • What do you simply not mention to people?

    跳过

  • Unless I absolutely have to for logistical reasons, I refuse to talk about me being a vegan to others.

    It typically results in a debate in which I have no desire to participate. I've had the same conversations with people over and over again in my 9 years being vegan. I always either have to censor my opinions, or I end up upsetting someone when I say I think this thing they're doing is morally wrong.

    People rarely engage the topic with genuine curiosity, they usually just want me to assuage their cognitive dissonance and tell them "oh the way you eat animals is totally acceptable!"

  • How did the authors write Asterix Puns?

    跳过

  • I do wonder what the Corsican's name is in French given that boneywasawarroirwayayix is very English (language and culture) specific.

    His original French name is Ocatarinetabellatchitchix, which is a reference to a song by Tino Rossi (who has Corse ancestry).

  • Captain America

  • What have you looked up on Wikipedia recently?

    跳过

  • From Dante, to Jamiroquai, to Nazis, to tunnel, to Caillou. These are all from the same day. I fucking love Wikipedia.

  • What are some common things people buy that you would never buy?

    跳过

  • As someone who loves both pickles and cucumbers, I couldn't disagree more.

    If I'm craving one and someone hands me the other, I'll be upset.

  • Release 1.17.0 · flatpak/flatpak

    跳过

  • That's what package managers are for, though. Or add the GitHub repo to your RSS reader if you want the details.

    Lemmy is a social media, like others have mentioned in this thread I don't mind this type of post nearly as much if the person posting adds their opinion/analysis/summary.

  • Whats the best voice acting in any video game?

    跳过

  • The whole cast of Team Fortress 2.

    I haven't played that game in over a decade, yet if I read any of the lines from the game, I'll still hear their voices loud as day. Even just seeing the word "medic" and I hear Demoman screaming it.

  • Do you use a system-default or a custom wallpaper for your personal computer? If custom, what kind of wallpaper & why?

    跳过

  • I always use a simple diagonal gradient with the three colours of the bisexual flag. I am bisexual, but it's mostly because I like the colours. Whenever I get a new device, I generate an appropriately-sized gradient for its screen using GIMP.

    The one exception is the background of my Steam Deck in desktop mode, which is the following because I thought it was funny:

  • Why is every person involved in a movie listed in the credits?

    跳过

  • Most of the various guilds and unions in the entertainment industry have rules regarding proper crediting.
