Mandatory “hide the opt-out if there’s even an opt-out at all” “AI” trash that is shoved into everything from operating systems to browsers. It’s less than useless, outright malicious in both intent and practice in many cases, and dumps more carbon into the air just so the “AI” trash doesn’t seem like a sunk cost investment for venture capitalists.

Labyrinth was such a good time.

I’ve found the best way to really infuriate online edgelords was to be patient yet firm with them.

Like a parent.

“Greater Internet Fuckwad Theory” was both a lie (typically invoked to defend/justify bigotry, bullying, and such) and it also served to normalize people being assholes on the internet. “Perfectly well adjusted wholesome ordinary people chant nazi slogans when they log onto the internet, for real guys! It says nothing about their character as people because for some magical reason the internet totally has no connections to lived human experiences!”

I’m glad that the so-called rule fell out of use and the excuse rings very hollow for most people now. Also, I noticed that many “ironic asshole” comedians and entertainers from the “le epic trolling” era wound up being actual assholes that hurt people outside of the act. “Million Dollar Extreme” and Justin Roiland come to mind.

You’re right.

If you like good storytelling, worldbuilding, complex flawed characters and/or deep interactive internal monologues, Disco Elysium is unsurpassed.

That “Frightful Hobgoblin” computer toucher would insist otherwise, claiming that a sufficient number of Game Boys bolted together equals or even exceeds human sapience, but I think that user is currently too busy being a bigoted sex pest.

It’s marketing hype, even in the name. It isn’t “AI” as decades of the actual AI field would define it, but credulous nerds really want their cyberpunkerino fantasies to come true so they buy into the hype label.

A ledger that by definition shows every previous transaction on it is a honeypot for investigation just waiting to happen.

The wording of this question has a very narrow permitted window for an answer, but I’ll say fuck “influencers” anyway. Entire concept should be rolled back like 20 years. Disc jockeys and similar precursors weren’t quite so prone to being narcissistic kiddie creepers that were famous for being famous.

Kirby games often have a really fucked up final boss encounter.

dae die a hero or live long enough to become the villain wow this cryptofascist auteur has such epic wisdom let’s go punch poor people

Is this the real life? Is this just fantasy?

I am going to get downvoted for this, but (community popular opinion)

The Wizards of the Lost Kingdom movies are a fine slice of the fantasy side of cheese, as is the delightfully named Deathstalker and the Warriors From Hell.

Oh, and Delta Knights!

I also recommend, for those that like spy/heist/Italian weirdness, to try Diabolik, and Operation Double-Double-07.

Hard mode might be “Agent From H.A.R.M.” because there’s long stretches of very little happening, but what happens can be downright hilarious.
