Oh? maybe there is some nuance i don’t get. Or is this just fricken cow tools all over again?

I never understand why these exist. Like why not just have him eat grapes and say “The grapes of wrath”? Not that it would be funny either but like, it’s right there.

So i don’t know if the AI is weighted to suppress truth. From my looking on my local run version 12, it seems to just have a hole surrounding critical events in China. This makes sense if it was trained with data inside the national firewall. When asked about this missing data or when you bring up the 1989 Tiananmen Square protests and massacre, it will admit that it is ignorant and that it might not be a reliable source for information due to the situation of its creation. And honestly, that frank admission is appreciated.

Oooooohhhhh! You had me going in the first half, not going to lie.

For me i went with WraithGear because i personally feel that i am not here, or real, that i am just piloting my corpse around. It crossed with my thoughts on gaming due to making an xbox account and all, and i have a framed art cell of metal gear acid on my desk, and it all kinda clicked. Its gear as in metal ‘gear’ more so then a cog.

Its a world where the clean up of souls is differed to designated souls who for one reason or another can’t pass on. These souls are given a new body and are assigned to a cell to replace the one who reaped them. They are told a location, a time, and a name. And have to find the person about to die and pull the soul out before they are killed, else the soul brings the trama of death over with them. In the protagonists case she is put in the “freak accident death” group. Which reap people who are indirectly killed by demons mostly. It’s forbidden to reach out to your family for obvious reasons, but due to her mother HATING the word “moist” and considering it a sex slur, she leaves behind a message saying just that and the mother instantly catches on.

Are you a “Dead like me” fan? Its the code word you set up to let your family know your not dead yet.

It took me three hours to decide upon mine, this was back when i needed one for the xbox 360. I literally sat there on the set up screen, and thought. You should see me struggle with character gens.

Are you ducking serious?

Ok, now we did i put that comic panel with the board room exec pointing at the burning hellscape out side saying “we have to find a way to monetize this, and fast!”

I don’t know, don’t have an instance. If it’s not just an option to still be federated but to opt out of having community posts being featured in all then maybe they should defederate with all of the other ones so they can post terrible things about the people they hate behind everyone else’s backs. Or they can just accept that when someone (even a mod) posts something antagonistic, it’s going to get down votes.

I seriously doubt that vegan posts showing off durian jerky, or even posts about how long cows could live if the meat industry didn’t slaughter them at peak profit efficiency, would be downvoted that much.

Then shouldn’t their space be private, so they don’t show up on all? They are begging for downvotes with how nasty their memes are. I understand their point, but i am sure that my understanding is much better reserved for non jerks.
