I wish they didn’t feel the need to fake it with upscaling. In my experience upscaling looks like shit every time, whether it’s a video or game. Most of the time a good 1080p video with good bit rate will look way better than a 4k upscale.
Your math is wrong. If you want the creator to still get $5 with apple stealing 30% you would need to pay ~43% extra.
$5/0.7 = $7.14
1/0.7 = 1.42857
Lol assume the rage is blind. Straw man much?
Ah I see so she not only gets to continue to benefit personally from the unearned wealth she’s hoarding, but also gets to commit further exploitation to steal yet more wealth from the working class and redistribute it unilaterally however she sees fit, just because she gives some of it to charity. Are you not aware that most if not all of the charities rich people donate to are really just a tax dodge, and the charity itself only serves to promote the political interests of the billionaires that fund them? I guess not because you can see the nuance in being an evil wealth hoarding dragon but not in “donating” to “charity”. Educate yourself first before you try to educate others chucklefuck. You’ll look like less of a naive dipshit.
All billionaires are bastards. Full stop. It doesn’t fucking matter if they got there through marriage. It doesn’t fucking matter if they donate to charity and seem like nice people. Nothing they can do can excuse the evil done by them or on their behalf to become that wealthy in the first place. You can tell they’re cool with it because they never seem to stop being billionaires of their own free will.
This isn’t a great metaphor. We don’t get energy from sleeping, and we probably only reduce our energy expenditure slightly during sleep compared to being awake. Sleep is our maintenance routine, especially for our brain. It’s used for cleaning waste products out of our brain, processing information from the day, creating and solidifying memories, consolidating learning we did, training for future fine motor tasks, and practicing for possible future events. It’s also important for healing and maintaining our immune system in many complex ways. Really we get two hours of fucking around/work time for each hour of self repair/maintenance we do. In the short term you can put off, reduce, or even skip maintenance, but we need to do it eventually or we die, or at least live much shorter lives.
Our charge to activity ratio can be mutch higher. You could easily chug a 3000 Calorie meal shake in 5-10 minutes, leaving the rest of your day for other stuff. That’s a ratio of around 144-288 activity/charge time.
It’s incredible we don’t already have laws governing companies attempting to offload accountability to computers and software. In this sense an LLM isn’t really special at all, it’s just another form of software, but because techbros have called it AI there’s this implicit assumption it can be responsible… A human is always responsible in the end, whether it’s the simplest chatbot or the most overbuilt wasteful chatbot ever conceived or a phone charger or whatever.
I’m sorry for your loss
Giant cat, the size of a grizzly bear, but somehow with the proportions of a chubby house cat. It’s primary prey is mega rich humans. Continuous exposure to greed in such humans lends their flesh an exquisite and deeply savory scent and flavor that the cat can smell from hundreds of km away. Like all cats they take pleasure in toying with their prey, refining their technique and cunning by repeatedly capturing billionaires, then letting them just barely escape, only to hunt and catch them again, until the thrill of the hunt or hunger overcomes them, or their toy succumbs to the chase. Friend to the destitute, the homeless, the impoverished, and all the proletariat. The cat is gentle and loving to all who respect it and want not for the fruits of others labor.
Let’s be honest, the couch does most of the work.
You’re not crazy. Just autistic. Probably.

Thr USA killed way way way more than 10 million native americans. We will never know the true scale of the genecide because the majority of it was done through disease. Early settlers would deliberately trade goods contaminated with several european diseases that the natives had little or no resistance to, including small pox and several others I can’t remember off the top of my head. Explorers moving west described “virgin” country untouched by man, beautiful and bountiful, but they were wrong. What they saw was an environment shaped over thousands of years by humans for humans that once supported hundreds of millions of native americans, who were mostly dead by the time european explorers got there. The genecide everyone knows about was really just the end, picking off the stragglers. That was bad enough that it’s whitewashed in public schooling, but they don’t even teach the history of the biological warfare that did the vast majority of the work. In many ways the americas still bear the gaping wounds of european contact today. This place is built on a foundation genocide.
This is kind of a bad faith black and white argument. No one is arguing for a draconian regulation of car designs. There’s already a system of regulations and review in place for certifying new car designs are safe and compliant with regulations, and the danger this design introduces in the event of an emergency should have prevented it from being certified safe for use. Any idiot can see with 30 seconds of thought that a car door you need power to open is inherently unsafe and will get people killed in situations where a manual door wouldn’t. It’s like arguing car manufacturers should be allowed to install a gun in the middle of every airbag that shoots the passenger in the event of a crash just because there’s no regulation specifically banning them from doing it. That’s not how the law works and it’s not how safety regulations work.
Maybe if people want the same level of love and affection we give our cats they should act more like cats. Be honest in your affection and displeasure. Respect peoples boundaries and inform them of yours. Don’t play games or use double speak. Don’t take it personally when people don’t want the same things as you. Value your own time ruthlessly. A cats love and trust are precious because you can trust that it’s real. Obviously peoples desires and relationships are more complex and nuanced than a cats, but I think most people can learn a lot from their example.
I had to stop reading when I got to the part where they had a dog rape someone. I’m afraid this is coming to the US. I’m afraid this is going to happen to me.
I don’t think anyone would let me use my skills as collateral to take out a big ass loan to buy some new skills while I rent out my skills for others to use while I sit on my ass getting richer just because I own my own skills.
Those are usually hard corn, so it would probably taste pretty starchy once ground into cornmeal. Now that I think about it that would probably be a yummy cornbread, like a less sweet cornbread. They may be able to be popped to make popcorn, but in my experience the colorful corns make pretty bad popcorn. The taste is good but there’s a lot more hull relative to the starch compared to yellow or white popcorn, which makes them more tough and less satisfying to chew, at least to me.
Pfft doesn’t even use C4 photosynthesis. Get this weak ass corn wannabe outta here.
Maybe there’s an easier way involving the transporter?
