It doesn’t have to be an ‘against AI’ thing, to be fair! It’s also just fun to use.

Wow, what’s with the downvotes? Sheesh.

Yeah, I’m related to the animals. We all are.

(Like someone else in the thread said, also the plants. Technically. Though whether it counts as flesh is debatable.)

Species dysphoria for me. (Yeah, that’s a thing too! Therian gang. 🐺)

Yeah.

There’s this XKCD…

found it! https://xkcd.com/1139/

Quite relevant. Little disturbing though.

Depends on the server you sign up for. We’re on a furry server and the entire local feed is just furry stuff (mostly art posts).

Zelda Twilight Princess may not have been exactly hated, but nobody really seems to love it. They all go gaga over Ocarina of Time instead, which just feels like a worse Twilight Princess in just about every way. Nostalgia I guess!

Also, you know, Twilight Princess has you be a wolf (in sections for part of the game, and then later you get unrestricted wolf mode (but it keeps kicking you out of it grrr!)). Huge therian feels. That’s a big part of why I love it.

We just made our KDE look like Mac. It’s way more Maclike than Gnome, and actually pretty great!

Oh great. We have 3.4.3 in testing, so uh, next stable will probably have it.

Whenever we park (in an automatic), we set the parking brake, because we do Not like feeling that small jolt.

A surprising number of new cars these days just… don’t seem to have a parking brake control? at all?? anywhere???

And the rest have it as a button instead of a manual thing you can pull if the computer goes haywire. What is the state of cars coming to.

Oh! Makes sense (it’s been aaages since we’ve seen star trek of any sort).

They could have totally made a VCR without inputs, though. There are audio tape players like that.

Wanna feel old?

We weren’t even born in the 80s! Or the 90s!

I mean it’s entirely possible he CAN and just doesn’t WANT to. Gotta have the things that make you unique, after all!

To be fair, you CAN monkey with timestamps and stuff in git. It is cryptographically proven that a given history results in a given commit hash, but you’re free to rewrite that and just have a new commit hash. If you give anyone else your repo, though, then if you rewrite history later they can be like “huh? this doesn’t match!”.

Not that that matters much here. Proving beyond a reasonable doubt is the goal, not Absolute 100% Certainty level proof.

The annual releases thing might be specific to Car Mechanic Simulator? We play Truck Simulator (American Truck Sim/Euro Truck Sim 2) and it’s definitely not “release the same game every year for more money”. They do have a shitton of map expansion DLCs though (and that’s where they make their money).

They’re digital crack to a very specific subset of people, haha!

They’re definitely not digital crack for everyone. :3

(Personally I bounced off Satisfactory mostly because of the specifics of early game power generation; I really wanted to like it, and might have gotten really into it if it weren’t for that.)

Hey, simulator games have value outside of that, too. At the very least. Like, Truck Simulator? Yeah we play that and it’s not because of streamers. It’s just a very chill game where you get to drive all over the country. (I like Elite Dangerous for a lot of the same reasons. Slow-paced and chill and lots of buttons to push that actually do something meaningful.)

Okay, but you’re still talking like tying power to people’s body energy output is a good thing. Speed, power, whatever, limiting our machine capability just because our body is limited (preventing working around disability) is an asshole move.

No, what you’re doing is tying people’s speed to what their specific body can produce rather than what is safe. Those are two very different things.

Totally tubular, dude!
