When I was introduced to anime by a fan, I was not impressed. Me and my wife got some giggles out of these out of their naivity (and some became family memes). Aside of that, anime makes me cringe.
I like Rammstein Engel clip with Evangelion video compilation, but I don’t think I’d enjoy the anime itself (though maybe I should try some time).
Lemmy tends to stigmatize usage if AI because of environmental impact.
I think using AI casually to shorten search for information (always double check it) or to create an image to be amused of or to use as reference to create my own art is perfectly acceptable.
Shit, each day I’m playing videogames, which burns much more electricity than a request to AI which translates to calculation of a function on several matrices. This is nowhere near calculating thousands of textured polygons 144 times a second.
I won’t pay for AI tho if it becomes payed or subscription-only. Fuck it.
Also I’m a programmer and I’ve never used AI to write code for me, and I think it’s terrible idea because it will make me too relaxed and dumb, leeching all the skill from me. Also it is useless for anything relatively complex as it will create more problems (bugs) than it solves, and it will be unable to fix them. Treat this as a side note and not an addition to my unpopular opinion about AI, because this part I think is popular.
I agree with you. Drug control is only needed to control population so they keep working for their masters.
Alcohol is a drug too, and is allowed because it tends to kill closer to old age where people become burden to the system. People can work next day after consuming alcohol. Also most consumers do that just before weekends. So negative impact is even less.
There are still roguelikes without meta progression. I’m even making two myself (without much hope to finish them, as most of my projects).
There are elites in every country. And they have power. Only revolution and establishment of anarchy may help. But I don’t believe anarchy will work and not deteriorate into barbarism. We’re fucked.
I agree with you. I also don’t like anime and can’t understand why people are excited with it.
My theory is that they align themselves with eastern culture, where naive look at the world and the same naive jokes are cool and funny.
Or maybe I’m just the evil person.
Anyway, not upvoting because we’re supposed to upvote unpopular opinions in such topics.
Not the favorite, but quite good I’ve watched recently:
Also some movies that left a trace:
Cradle Of Filth - Sleepless, cover of Anathema - Sleepless.
I am an enjoyer of Cradle Of Filth, but objectivly, their version has more color.
Clueless coding is the perfect term.
Yamaha Reface CS. A remake of 70s analog synthesizer. Even if I don’t make music professionaly, I enjoy playing melodies I’ve learned, fooling around with sound, and every time I catch a sight of it, it sparks joy in me. I own it for more than 2 years.
Also it’s fairly cheap for synthesizer, 370 euro, but definitely it’s not a toy, but rather a full blown instrument.
True, but, sadly, I’m omnivorous and I like diversion in my game library.
