  • My initial position was that AI art would be exciting when a more carefully curated training data is used. … But after some talking with friends, I think we’re living in a world that has minimal respect for copyright already, except when a corporation has a problem with it and wants to bring down the hammer of the law.

    It does hurt and its easy to be emotional about artists’ livelihoods being threatened by AI, they aren’t the only laborers threatened by job loss to automation, but this one hurts the most.

    So now its just up to AI and artists to make interesting art with it. And for artists to adapt to this environment that has automated art tools.







  • I LOVED blockbuster. Absolute thrill to go through all of those movies, find some weird thing, give it a chance. It was so fun ti have the surprise and anticipation and basically roll the dice that movie night would be fun becsse the movie was good or fun because it was bad and we has to think on our feet and make something else happen.






  • As a former dedicated Insurgency player… Yeah, there were very few people worth keeping at NWI. They made an awesome concept for a game and then had to spend years upon years fixing incomprehensible, Garry’s Mod level bugs.

    And let me tell you, Insurgency at the end of its life was becoming a humungously popular game, and they announced and released its sequel, Insurgency: Sandstorm far too early.

    So NWI had made a lot of very silly mistakes, and yet there is a wonderful game with a wonderful community still there.





  • Anarchy requires the absence of a state… And private property… Anarchy is to the left of “workers siezing the means of production”.

    But anarcho-capitalists are, as you’ve said, only focusing on the economic system of their politics. If you ask them about the politics and government of their fantasy? Well, they all reveal a desire for a deeply coercive state. Anarchy, and also Libertarian, are words being co-opted.
