The most horrifying possible outcome of a World War is, arguably, there being a definitive “winner”.

Id imagine it doesn’t have to really move fast, just has to sit in the right spot and wait for our orbit around the sun to smash us into it?
I look forward to nvidia being knocked down a peg or two(hundred) and maybe making graphics card prices reasonable again.
Vimes Boots Theory.
The reason that the rich were so rich, Vimes reasoned, was because they managed to spend less money.
Take boots, for example. He earned thirty-eight dollars a month plus allowances. A really good pair of leather boots cost fifty dollars. But an affordable pair of boots, which were sort of OK for a season or two and then leaked like hell when the cardboard gave out, cost about ten dollars. Those were the kind of boots Vimes always bought, and wore until the soles were so thin that he could tell where he was in Ankh-Morpork on a foggy night by the feel of the cobbles.
But the thing was that good boots lasted for years and years. A man who could afford fifty dollars had a pair of boots that’d still be keeping his feet dry in ten years’ time, while the poor man who could only afford cheap boots would have spent a hundred dollars on boots in the same time and would still have wet feet.
This was the Captain Samuel Vimes ‘Boots’ theory of socioeconomic unfairness.
Ubisoft of 2010 (ish) had some real great games. Shame they’ve become what they are now.
True, though I hope we’ll see a few variations of Killdozer crop up before the end.
Nah, they’ll kill it after a year due to hard drive costs. Enough screenshots at a resolution high enough to know wtf you’re looking at and still have vaguely usable data would be absurd.
I could see it rebranded for enterprise usage for businesses and schools though, at an extra cost.
Of all the Dystopias, I think we’re closest to Elysium at the moment.
(Or let other companies polish up a feature/concept for a few years, slap a coat of Space Gray on it, and release it as a revolutionary “new” feature for apple)
Artists for furry porn aren’t generally paying for 100+ enterprise licenses. But then, people doing more questionable stuff probably aren’t paying at all so it still doesn’t make sense.
Photoshop != deepfake porn. Although it might get used to touch up some images for realism.
Which isn’t where the money is in NSFW digital art.
Like… do they just not want money from the main group of digital artists who generate money? It’s literally a meme that the best way to make money as an artist is furry porn
Tell me you don’t want money from NSFW artists without telling me.
Plus it’s fucking microsoft.
I mean they do have one good thing going for them: you can separate the art from the more controversial artists, because you know for sure the artist isn’t getting a damn thing from spotify
Making posts about how you’re not home is bad OpSec.

I wonder how many people will get fired over a keyword based alarm for the words “kill” and “child” in the same sentence in an LLM. It’s probably not going to be 0…
