That's the human condition. All suffering and joy is relative to our baseline, and that baseline changes very quickly.

They don't like the short top, her hair, or the tattoos.

American conservative christians are generally anti-tattoo. They like things like long modest dresses, suits, clean short haircuts for men, etc. Very bland and conforming.

If I understand it right, the Jewish God came from a pantheon, and didn't just respect other pantheons. Like it was equivalent to a group of people who worshipped the Roman gods and then said "Yeahhh, but we're going to pick Vulcan as our main guy."

Ah see, the problem is you were looking in /sdcard0/ which of course, refers to your internal storage and not your SD card which is probably called /0xgg0gdjdsjgg/ or something.

AI Voice impressions are also getting very good, very quickly. I can convert a song to an AI celebrity cover in a few minutes on consumer grade hardware with a model trained on 15 minutes of audio. We will almost certainly reach a point within my lifetime, probably within 20 years, where you literally can't tell the difference between an AI actor and a real one.

Yeah but you lose a ton of image resolution. The google preview isn't even close to full size in most cases.

For a long time our goal was simply to survive and maybe have sex a few times. Now we're suddenly under pressure to "accomplish" things but not that many people are really wired for it. There's a reason some of the best creatives are weirdos and assholes.

There was /r/nofans.

Bandwidth isn't a concern if you get an unmetered line, and 10TB storage is only about $250. I would imagine they make decent money from tech, and find the service very convenient personally.

Some of them are great and can even make things less awkward for the other person. The "small error" one for example. The "I have an appointment" one is necessary when talking with higher ups in big companies who completely devalue your needs. But some are assholish, yeah.

Plus, bitching about common experiences is awesome. I have two past co-workers that I stay in contact with and most of what we talk about is how much we hated the job.

Really that stat would have to be something like total karma divided by your number of posts, or number of views by logged in users on your posts. As a total number it's meaningless. It's like someone being a millionaire if humans were immortal. Are they really good at business, or have just been alive a long time?
