If you're the type of person to get upset over being called out, then you belong on X. I don't know what to tell you. Go back to the app where anyone can post anything. Let Bluesky die, but you won't. You'll keep posting here because you actually prefer this place, just not being called out.

Not that I don't visit Louisiana every year, but you don't even need to leave your house to understand the rural American. You don't even need to be American to see the insecurities manifest as suicidal tarrifs and xenophobia. The secret is out: rural Americans are sad and want everyone else to be.

When I was in school parents could just call and their kid would immediately be pulled from class to talk to them. I do remember even this being abused by a couple of my friends to get picked up whenever they just wanted to go home, not even sick or anything. That was how we got here.

This is the excuse used to cover the fact that American parents have developed weird parasocial relationships with their own kid. I mean you can even include this, your kid is far more likely to grow up with a bad AI powered education than experience a shooting. Not that we don't need gun control.

Also I thought about this for 20 more seconds. The problem with our average politician being 60 years old and increasing isn't how it matches life expectancy, it's that the first 25 years of your life are the most important and you become increasingly out of touch with that as you age.

I think studios will start paying for this stuff again over the next decade. They see the numbers and while people might be watching the simulation slop, those works never break the cultural barrier that's necessary to make the real money. They know they need to do this for us to care.

If the AI bubble really is bursting, please take this lesson from it: Nothing marketed to you this relentlessly is ever worth it. If it was, they wouldn’t need to beg you.

I'll admit that the AI features in PDF reader have fundamentally changed my experience - I now have to angrily click past a pop up before I can read the PDF I need to.

Honestly a lot of them are just on the spectrum and wiki'd out the wazoo. But yeah if you can't explain your ideology in a sentence or two, it's just masturbation.

Difficulty levels in a Lego game is such a good idea. I don't want the games to be dark souls or anything but I've always disliked how there's basically no punishment for dying. Co-op is more fun when there are actual stakes.
