  1. + the fact that inbreeding kills AI is very telling. Inbreeding is only a problem if you are unintelligent and uncreative.
  2. AI is incapable of creativity. Otherwise it wouldn't need a bunch of data to train off. Humans are derivative too, but it's more like inspiration and love. You can create something original if you wanted to. It's just hard. Modernism for example is a reactionary spin off classic art, but it took an original spark to visualize what that would look like. AI could never create a Van Gogh painting. There's depth and deliberateness to the creativity of Van Gogh's paintings down to the particular strokes and blend of colors. Intuition plays a large role in art. The absence of acknowledgement of how intuition plays into art is part of what tells me that they don't understand it.
  3. Ok, Joe Rogan. Enjoy your beer and stake. Don't forget to take your supplements.
  4. I think hunting vermin, AKA varmint hunting, is a lot more accessible as a form of hunting. There's generally less regulations, you can hunt all seasons and an airgun is sufficient in most cases, which are a lot cheaper and don't require permits, etc. You'll be helping out people and hunting invasive species such as mink can also contributes to the ecology (who overhunt native species).
  5. It's a false equivalency. You can only truly believe this if you never created anything good and original. AI bros understanding of creativity is a caricature. For one, they think prompting an AI to generate things for you makes you artist when it's more like ordering food at a restaurant. An AI bro can churn out Star Wars Tiktok slop but they could never actually conceive of Star Wars. It takes actual ingenuity and work to create something worth investing time in. AI bros don't even understand how intuition plays into art. Art is just an idea to them.
  6. I kinda of doubt the capacity for AI to make good art, not just from a technical perspective, but also because AI bros tend to be such hacks. They don't understand art on a fundamental level. They always make the most generic shit based on other people's ideas. Not in the sense of AI using tons of human work (which is itself a problem), but that they are uncreative. Shit like "Dragon Ball Z but real life". "Super Mario if it was Star Wars". "Spiderman VS Deku", etc. Slop all the way down.
  7. AI always has this tendency to center its subject in a manner in a way that's always kind of dramatic and emphasized, like close up staring into the camera with a blurry background. It can't or won't make shots where the characters are more de-emphazised. It lacks subtlety and feels stilted. You can tell it's stitched together from various clips that have been generated. It must've taken ages to get it all right so that it looks like a succinct movie, and not an AI fever dream. Typically characters look different between each clip, but that's clearly been improved upon.
  8. Realism as in manufactured in Israel. Goyslop all the way down.
  9. There's a thin line between chud and chad. Stare long enough into the mirror and the mallet stares back like the green goblin mask.
  10. Every problem you have has already been solved by someone else with the exact same problems. Read their books. Go on Google and look up books that answer your exact problems. It's cheap but can completely change your life.
  11. Thr neoliberal chud vs the npc "realist" vs the soy soccel
  12. The best place is 4chan, where everyone is equally horrible. It's the most authentic place on the internet.
  13. Plenty of close minded people here too lmao
  14. There been plenty of times of history where young guys got sent to some war and a lot of them died virgins. The human race is built such that you don't need a lot of guys to bounce back and propagate after a calamity, seemingly by design. So in that sense, if you die a virgin the world will move on just fine without you. It doesn't matter to anyone but you. No one is going to save you. So why not just go for it? I will always recommend that you just make it a goal instead of crying about it. Goals are done in stages and actionable steps. You will eventually achieve your goal if you set your mind to it. If you are a loser then stop being a loser. Go to the gym, develop your skills, talk to people, etc. Circumstances might make it marginally more difficult for you compared to other guys, but what's holding you back is your mindset. Also dude, remember we live in the 21st century. Never been a better time in human history to meet a breath of girls. People in past times had nowhere near the same opportunities for sex. You just need to seize the opportunity. It's on you if you miss out. That is the most important thing I want to impress on you. It's your choice. Either you make a choice to get what you want or you won't.
  15. Fotball wished it fans had the stamina and conviction of communists. There's nothing you can tell them that'll stop making them root for communism.
  16. Discussions like this just show how people are incapable of holding multiple thoughts at once. Elon Musk is a visionary but he's also a slime ball in an era of orange excess. Elon deserves some criticism but also hate the game, not the player.
  17. Communism makes good critique of capitalism but are too idelogical to work politically, like that time the Soviet army was rankless. Communism goes hand in hand with starvation and lack because fully centralized allocation of goods tends to be bad at predicting need. Many hands carry more.
  18. Being liberal doesn't inherently mean seeing political disagreement as moral, and which should be punished on an institutional level. That is what characterizes wokiesm specifically. You can be liberal leaning and have more right-wing stances on immigration for example. The internet tends to simplify ideas and people into kids cartoon characters to be more memeable. Wokiesm is destined to die out soon. It already peaked ca. during the late 2010s and during covid. The thing is, wokiesm represents a tiny minority of people, mostly upper middle-class managerial types who seek more power and authority. Wokiesm goes hand in hand with telling people how to behave. It's not a coincidence that woke folk tend to have connection with or are part of concultancy businesses. Even in academia, most people there aren't really woke. They just don't bother speaking up because it's not worth dealing with the insanity. Most people can recognize that wokiesm is illiberal in principle despite being left-leaning in essence, which makes it hard to take seriously. Browbeating people into fitting certain skewed ideals is never going to work.
  19. Nice, but that's objectively a brutal conversation rate. On gay apps, when you match it's straight to business.
  20. How many of those 700 resulted in actual dates?
  21. Maybe finding a hooker isn't such a bad idea in your situation, if only to blow off some steam, before you lose your mind. The hardest part of hookers is finding one attractive enough in my experience. They tend to be quiet washed up looking.
  22. It's sounds like justifying essentially a Christian view of animals. That humans are innately superior and that humans have god given right to exploit animals (literally). Descartes was catholic. Modern Christians are more amicable to animal rights. If you believe that humans are animals, then this line of thinking is obviously wrong, because you know that humans suffer and feel pain. Therefor animals must suffer too. It's just a question of how and to what degree relative to the makeup of one's physiology.
