There's an entire cohort infatuated with the premise of winding up a toy god to receive its blessings for being such effortlessly wonderful specimens of humanity

It was the big wild west, there was no precedent for the success or failure of any of this stuff, and most outfits were so lean, that getting the team on board and the idea greenlit often happened so quickly it got stood up and viable before anyone stopped to ask "Yea but what does the market want?

Thats the point though, they want something that will pander on command. They got tired of what to them is the performance theater that is being a normal human person. So they built a wind up god who provides instant impulse validation.

I feel like the venn diagrams would be more in your favor if it was Grand Theft Enterprise VI. The Q'Nos DLC for that game would be Wild

Furthermore, practically, when do we stopping adding chairs to this arrangement? Does the submitter have to kiss the ring of just the current WR holder? Top 3? 5? Do the board mods need to sign off as well? Should make it real spicy and let the developers and publishers pull up as well?

My concern with your position is that this sort of approach has a tendency to reduce community structures into elite driven hierarchies based on title and position rather than leadership and character Such things tend to promote toxicity, which can in the long term depress and inhibit a community

Probably one of the most useless, garbage datasets yet, that Amazon will try and plug up to an in-house V-tuber Performance Bot that will burn 15 million dollars before going on a 2 hour racist tirade which gets it taken behind the woodshed.

So, the downside is, Twitch has defaulted AITraining on stream content to on (I encourage people to turn it off) But it only turns off for certain features. Upside: Streamers now have a pipeline infect the training dataset with nonsensicalisms. Go on. 2 minutes a stream. Spout utter gibberish.

People sometimes make a catastrophe about falling property values and housing prices. Interestingly, that argument only works on people who own property. If you build a society where only certain people can afford property, people stop caring about preserving the value that you derive from it.

I once had some younger people come out to help me build a house I heard the word Instagram so many times that day. Fraction of them stayed on task, rest took pics and were "working their engagement" We're over here lifting walls to house people and I just hear giggling about angles and fits.

When I bake cookies prior to heading to GDQs, its that smell that helps me calm the apprehensions and anxieties I have for traveling and socializing, each cookie is a promise of having a good time bringing someone joy. Also feeding friends, very important.

The lack of willingness or capacity to give people any form of grace with which to make mistakes or do better is a large part of it, I feel. For some folks there is no benefit, only doubt
