Sigh…yeah I guess I’m into that

The “nemesis system” is just hundreds of voice lines and a dice roll to decide when they pop up. I liked the middle earth games but always thought it was funny how they pushed the nemesis system like some kind of groundbreaking thing.
I saw it firsthand. I think it’s an older campaign though, that was a few years ago.
Wait, you mean to tell me that the billionaire machine, built by billionaires to say things billionaires like, might influence politics in favor of billionaires? Say it ain’t so
I got a car loan once even though I had the cash to buy outright. I didn’t want to drain my savings and end up high and dry if there was an emergency. It was worth it to me to pay a little interest so I still had a cash buffer.
If I were living paycheck to paycheck like many folks are, I imagine the logic would be similar for smaller purchases.
Oh, like Winnie the Pooh
My high school music teacher went to a Dragonforce concert circa 2008. He said they were completely wasted, didn’t sound anything like the album, and barely knew where they were. Just an absolute waste of time. He got an autograph from one of them (must’ve paid for a VIP ticket or something) and they wrote “wish I didn’t have to meet you, asshole.”
He liked them a lot less after that
It’s truly a gift to see my original comment, which boils down to “huh, odd choice of words,” defended with such eloquence. The internet may not be paradise but I ask you, where else could this meeting of the minds have occurred?
I would have gotten away with it, too, if not for you mean cows

Someone on Mastodon was saying that whether you consider AI coding an advantage completely depends on whether you think of prompting the AI and verifying its output as “work.” If that’s work to you, the AI offers no benefit. If it’s not, then you may think you’ve freed up a bunch of time and energy.
The problem for me, then, is that I enjoy writing code. I do not enjoy telling other people what to do or reviewing their code. So AI is a valueless proposition to me because I like my job and am good at it.
