Ah see, the problem is you were looking in /sdcard0/ which of course, refers to your internal storage and not your SD card which is probably called /0xgg0gdjdsjgg/ or something.

That's the human condition. All suffering and joy is relative to our baseline, and that baseline changes very quickly.

For a long time our goal was simply to survive and maybe have sex a few times. Now we're suddenly under pressure to "accomplish" things but not that many people are really wired for it. There's a reason some of the best creatives are weirdos and assholes.

Some of them are great and can even make things less awkward for the other person. The "small error" one for example. The "I have an appointment" one is necessary when talking with higher ups in big companies who completely devalue your needs. But some are assholish, yeah.

Plus, bitching about common experiences is awesome. I have two past co-workers that I stay in contact with and most of what we talk about is how much we hated the job.

They don't like the short top, her hair, or the tattoos.

American conservative christians are generally anti-tattoo. They like things like long modest dresses, suits, clean short haircuts for men, etc. Very bland and conforming.

As a "homepage" for news and content, yeah.

Sadly my hobby and porn subreddits I still meed reddit for though.

Yeah but you lose a ton of image resolution. The google preview isn't even close to full size in most cases.

Really that stat would have to be something like total karma divided by your number of posts, or number of views by logged in users on your posts. As a total number it's meaningless. It's like someone being a millionaire if humans were immortal. Are they really good at business, or have just been alive a long time?

Bandwidth isn't a concern if you get an unmetered line, and 10TB storage is only about $250. I would imagine they make decent money from tech, and find the service very convenient personally.

AI Voice impressions are also getting very good, very quickly. I can convert a song to an AI celebrity cover in a few minutes on consumer grade hardware with a model trained on 15 minutes of audio. We will almost certainly reach a point within my lifetime, probably within 20 years, where you literally can't tell the difference between an AI actor and a real one.

Big fan of Air. The owner is a cool guy, they support privacy orgs, and the VPN itself is great.

Private + Usenet takes care of my movie, TV, and audiobook needs. Then cs.rin.ru for games. Snahp (private DDL) for software.

You might be seeing fees I'm not, but some cell service are actually mandatory in the US. Usually a few dollars a month, they go to various state and federal agencies.

Yeah but it's fun to feel superior by inventing a strawman.

The thing is Karma was largely about luck and community. I made a dirty joke that took 5 seconds to think of and wasn't very funny and got 2000 upvotes because it was in a big thread. I later spent about 5 hours putting together a resource for a smaller community and got 200 upvotes. Almost zero correlation between karma and quality.

There was /r/nofans.

I believe Kingdom of Loathing used iframes extensively to achieve what looked like a "dynamic" page long before that was a thing.

I feel you. Weird that they don't label it, maybe you get a summarized bill or something.

Yeah I think with a net income of $60 billion annually Google is a wee bit past needing VC money lol.

I just switched from Plex to Jellyfin. Aside from a few minor features like intro skipping, I don't miss it.

That would feel weird in Hobbit because it's a story he wrote for his kid. At the same time, I find George RR Martin's critique of that aspect of LOTR valid. He said something along the lines of "It's a neat world, but it doesn't feel real. Can you imagine dwarves having sex?" Meanwhile, due to its grit, the GoT world feels very believable. Humans are messy, primal creatures at the core.

That is essentially impossible. How are they going to pay each reddit user whose comment the AI analyzed? Or each website it analyzed? We're talking about terabytes of text data taken from a huge variety of sources.
