I actually do not use it, not out of any kind of moral stance but it just runs slow for me.

I’m absolutely shocked that Wizards wasn’t already doing distribution.

That is extremely cool!

That’s actually very interesting, i would not have expected that.

1. that site is horribly laid out, it breaks the entire story up with spam for it’s other stories that aren’t even related? Terrible.

2. Honestly i could care less if official D&D products used AI art, considering how little the art in the books matters. I’d honestly prefer if they were more like some other RPG’s books and had less art and more text.

3. I will say this: i’ve been on a binge of reading old dragon and dungeon magazine issues, and even AI art is better than the art that people endured for much of the 1980’s and early 1990’s.

yeah it’s 100% just a murder. probably she thinks by saying it’s an “accident” she can either skate or get a manslaughter conviction instead of murder.

It is always really interesting when a system like that fails, and Im curious to see what they come up with as an explanation for why.

Depends what you’re into

I like:

Air Safety Institute - https://www.youtube.com/@AirSafetyInstitute - they cover recent GA crashes, all sorts of stuff related to airplanes and what not. Really interesting and well presented.

HorrorGeek - https://www.youtube.com/@TheHorrorGeek - amusing reviews of horror movies

NerdExplains - https://www.youtube.com/@NerdExplains - really snarky and mean-spirited horror movie reviews

PeriscopeFilm - https://www.youtube.com/@PeriscopeFilm - Archival film footage from through the ages, just all kinds of crazy stuff

Ill Advised Records - https://www.youtube.com/@illadvisedrecords - relaxing music

Law & Crime Network - https://www.youtube.com/@LawAndCrime - Content about crime and trials and what have you

Cryochamber - https://www.youtube.com/@cryochamberlabel - Relaxing music

There’s a bunch more (the New Jersey museum guy, Drachnifel, bunch of true crime stuff) but that’s what leapt to mind first

Aww hell yeah! i’ve been waiting for this one. Once it’s been out a few days i intend to upgrade my main rig to it.

Because AI detectors suck and are the modern day equivalent of dowsing rods?

The sad thing is, they probably did get a bonus, then set about how to further monetize it

yeah it’s absolutely ridiculous. Whoever decided that the start menu, of all things, needed to be encrusted with garbage should have been fired on the spot.

I got tired of windows pretending it knew better than me what i wanted, whether that was updates or security scans or fuck knows what else.

The final straw was when they shitted up the start menu with garbage and tried to shove their app store down my throat. At that point i was done.

Yeah i literally just run whatever the default in Linux Mint is. It’s got everything where i expect it to be and has no friction, and that’s good enough for me.

One thing i know for sure, there ain’t no predicting the future with something like this. We’ll not know where we’ll end up until we are there.

I feel like the limits were chosen to force twitter addicts to upgrade to blue.

Yeah it’s a real win-win. It’s costing the site interactions, and clearing some of the spam out of AMA

my hot take is that AMA’s haven’t been good for literally years, and that most celebrity AMA’s are terrible and nothing more than cheap advertising for whatever their latest project is.

Linux mint is often recommended for new people, and has a interface very similar to windows. In my own experience, it’s very fast to get it up and running.

Reddit’s admins don’t recognize that they have very few levers to control the mod teams. They don’t pay them, they don’t give them any special benefits or consideration, and they (clearly) don’t even respect them either. All that’s left is the stick of removal, and that’s only as threatening as the person is committed to being a mod on a site that clearly views them as a disposable tool.

They’ve already replaced some mod teams with new people, and i suspect that’ll continue, and likely cause enormous disruption as people discover being the mod of a large subreddit sucks and is very tedious, dull work that isn’t actually fun at all.

Considering how much money reddit makes off the vast amount of free labor provided to the site you’d think they’d have more sense, but, here we are.
