It seems like poor audio content to interview a mirror but what do I know?

I tried asking some chimps to see if the macaques had written a New York Times best seller, if not MacBeth, yet somehow Random house wouldn’t publish my work

It’s entirely possible there’s an issue with lemmynsfw.com that either has screwed up federation, or the majority of their content. I’m at work so I can’t investigate right now but I’d bet it’ll be fixed by the end of the day

Deadmau5 was live streaming his music writing process and accidentally recreated Sandstorm doing the same thing

Depending on when you were in high school Magic may have been a gambling game. In the first few editions of the game you “ante’d” the top card of your library before you played and some cards could cause you to ante others. Plus kids bringing things with monetary value that is flexible and hard to track is definitely a recipe for fights

Honestly this was way better than I expected. I did expect it to be horseshit, so it ultimately landed at pretty good, which still surprised me. I liked that that there was a little more going on with some of the characters than you’d expect, I liked the clown being really fucking goofy about the kills, and I liked the arc the kids went on. This was much more watchable than the name and trailer implied, also it’s 96 minutes long, which is perfect for something like this

Jesus Christ, we’ve descended to the point that we advertise for upcoming advertisements. I know this isn’t brand new but that’s a huge ad in presumably a major city, where does it end?

Yes

I made a lemmy post about it but I theorize they’re crowdsourced AI training. Post something, post a couple of separate AI interpretations of it, then analyze the highest up voted AI and “organic” responses, and feed that back into the model. Rinse/repeat

I mean the bots don’t help. The sheer number of obviously AI subreddits and response farms is crazy. There’s like 6 prominent “Am I the Assholes”, a bunch of text message “screenshot” subreddits which have always been easy to fake, and a bunch of “explain the joke” ones too. I stop reading halfway through most text posts and comments because it’s obviously AI

I feel like showing up to a canceled prophecy class should immediately fail you

DUDES, CHECK OUT THAT GREYING TOWER ALONE ON THE SEA! I’D COMPARE CRANKING MY HOG TO A PISS FROM A ROSE

Poison Ivy has basically become a good guy in Harley Quinn. I think there are a lot of people who are in favor of the earth fighting back against humans right now

That’s a problem for Q72 and they’re incapable of looking past Q4. Besides, they’ll have already jumped ship by then, what do the execs care if they make this quarter just ever so slightly more profitable

Americans have a weird quirk with preferring “local” grocery stores but not bothering to look up who actually owns their grocery store. So the majority of “local” chains are just regional Kroger brands or in this case Food Lion is the southern equivalent of Dutch Delhaize

Ah yes, when I think about a disheveled, bloated, alcoholic, drug addicted, disaster cop this is what I imagine:

Not Matt Berry, Paul Giamatti, or David Harbour. You know, people who have already shown they can play that type of role successfully already

Unironically, yes. If the “internet” were to disappear tomorrow civilized society would no longer exist. Too much had been built on an unstable jenga tower of technology. We put a lot of faith in the status quo existing despite the fact that little evidence suggests it will

That was really interesting, thanks for sharing

I’m probably going to do a trial run of Bazzite on my secondary computer to see how much does and doesn’t work and make my decision based on that

I’m in the same boat. I am really not interested in Windows 11 at all, especially after using it at work. My primary hesitation has been video game playability in the past but the steam deck has really expanded how many games are playable on Linux and I also play a lot more games on consoles than I did a few years ago
