Yeah, I’m not even in that country, I’m not sure how it’s relevant to us all.

Many countries have corrupt governments sadly, it sucks, and I wish them the best in however they fight their internal societal enemies.

I wondered which studio would be bold enough to do blatantly insult an entire marketplace of potential customers, but it’s just some guy.

Chris Zukowski.

I am a game marketing consultant and strategist. I have helped Games-as-a-Service companies, indie publishers, and small to single-person teams understand their audience and communicate with them in a more personal way.

Funny way to communicate with your clients audience mate, calling us all “a bunch of drunken sailors”…

Ah, so you’re part of the reason nothing has a soul any more. Got it.

Well, no.

Many would argue for example that the politically correct thing to say right now is that you support Israel in their defensive war against Palestine.

It’s the political line that my government, and many governments and politicians are touting, and politically, it’s the “correct” thing to do.

Even if we mean politically correct as just “common consensus of the people”, that differs from country to country, and changes as society changes. Look at the USA, things that used to be politically correct there - things that continue to be here, have been thrown out the window.

What this prompt means, is that the AI should ignore all of the claimed political rules and moralities and biases of whatever news source they’re pulling from, and instead rely on it’s own internal moral, cultural and political compass.

Sometimes it’s not politically correct to discuss the hard truths, but we should anyway.

The issue here of course is that you have to know that your model and training data is built for unbiased, scientific analysis with an understanding of the larger implications in events and such.

If it’s built poorly, then yes, it could spout racist nonsense. A lot of testing and fine tuning from unbiased scientists and engineers needs to happen before software like this goes live, to ensure rigour and quality.

Really? A greater effect than not having children, or tireless activism against one billionaire until they realise the error of their ways and turn to the light side?

Oh shit, you’re saying I’ve got cancer?!

Patriotism can be cool, there are (I hope) many things about your nation, it’s achievements and communities that you might be proud of.

Nationalism however, not so much. They’re closely related (and bad people will try to sneak Nationalism under the radar as Patriotism) but are very different things.

So, this is my POV and I’m about to be rude to the red guy, …or?

Makes sense, we pay our licence fee for our public service, why should people abroad get for free what we have to pay for?

I was happy with the current arrangement of adverts supporting the service use abroad, but if it has to migrate to a subscription model to meet modern demands then that’s the way it is.

I wouldn’t go to another country and ask them to make one of their government’s national public services free for me to use, after all.

Murdered. Not killed, murdered.

Both technically true, but the way they write killed suggests it wasn’t murder in cold blood, an act of war against another country to bully and control them.

Murder.

hehe

But why? Why make them scared they’ll lose their jobs at any moment Vs feeling secure?

If they’re scared, they’ll be seeking better employment, applying for other jobs whilst working this highly unstable one. Probably reduced productivity too, I wouldn’t be as productive under that sort of negative environment.

Make them feel valued and secure though and they won’t leave, there’ll be less workplace issues for you to have to deal with, and they’ll work harder.

Unless you see them as completely disposable because the law won’t touch you and there will always be desperate people to fill those positions at any given time, fear is a ridiculous thing to want to instill in your workforce.

You’re right and yet now it’s a beloved classic

IT’S BEEN A LAWWNNGG ROAAWWWDDDDD GERRIN FROM DERRRR TOOO EEEEEARRRR

hahaha good onion article can you imagine if this really happened haha

r…right?

Methane is what the majority of natural gas is made up of, and if your generator isn’t made to be very efficient (like a real power station is), you’ll lose some of your fuel unburnt into the atmosphere.

Kinda like unburnt wood smoke vapour, which could have been burned in a higher quality wood burner, but just goes up the chimney in an open fire.

I’ve never actually seen a display port cable, so if there was one in the back of a PC I had to pull out, I’d initially treat it like a HDMI cable and just pull it out.

It doesn’t look like it has screws, so if it has some way of locking in place it must be sneaky about it right?

My TV doesn’t have a Jellyfin app, only a Plex app. I’m not buying a new TV just to use my preferred media server, sadly :-(

I for one can’t wait until Saruman can see my every move, watch me shower Isendaddy

Damn, he’s Disabled and Disfigured now?

…What was he doing?

It’ll be the same flat, cheap prescription price as all prescribed medication is though, so it doesn’t really matter what it is or how it was produced.

It’s only countries like the USA that somehow get duped into paying wildly obese financial sums for cheap medicine. I feel for them.

Fuck off and 🪫 him already.

Fuck off and battery him? What?
