Given how much energy is needed to run AI, and given how much of it Meta is running, I’d say it’s fair to say that Meta wants to sell you stuff while THEY burn the world down

Question 1) Who is…BATMAN???

“Please verify your age”

Please fuck off.

…who has free electricity, and how do I get in on that?

What would you doooOOOOOooooo… for a Klondike bar with an old dell server?

Or ICE agent. Dealers choice.

Updoot for the upstanding citizen! I wish you could do something with it.

Link please?

Welcome to the modern day. Everything is stupid, and intentionally designed for you to have a bad time. Then you can pay money to have a better time.

Reminder? This is how I found out at all!

Thats what I heard.

I’d eat a burger called “Hammy McBurger”.

McDonalds! Get on this! Forget your stupid monopoly game!

Just bring back the Arch Deluxe, call it the Hammy McBurger. Market it as “Life is stupid, nothing makes sense. Now eat a Hammy McBurger! Consume!!!”

It’s one banana! How much could it possibly cost? $10?

You want someone to test your games for ways to break it? I know just the guy!

“Hey there, it’s Josh. Today we’re checking out The Milgram Experiment. Thank you devs for the complimentary game code. This is a horror/moral choice simulator. And we all know how trustworthy MY morals and choices are! But enough about that, it’s time for NEW GAME!!!”

20 minutes later

“Well, everything’s on fire. Everyone’s dead. And the frame rate is a staggering 3 frames per year! So that seems like a great place to call it a day. I hope you had fun, I know I did, and I’d like to thank the devs for this copy of their broken game. I’ll see ya next time!”

Don’t mind if I do!

…oops. Yes I did.

I remember when GTA 5 came out, everybody was excited. San Andreas had been HUGE. Both in map size, and in game sales.

I bought it day 1. Then the PS4 came out, and GTA5 for PS4. By this point we all knew what GTA5 was.

My friend wanted so badly for me to buy a PS4, just to buy GTA 5 again, just so he’d have someone to play with.

Then PS5 came out. Same story.

I actually bought a PS4 at some point. Regret it. Barely ever played it.

Then I bought a PS5. Regret it. Barely ever play it.

And now that I know how microtransaction laiden GTA is, I’ll be skipping GTA6 entirely.

Now I see them firing a bunch of people. A few days later I see GTA6 is delayed until this time next year.

Why would anyone be excited for a series that now peaked 21 years ago, and has only had 1 other release in that time?

Without context, I honestly thought this reply was in reference to my comment abput red lobster having unlimited popcorn shrimp.

You think Americans will think? We have wildly different predictions for how that scenario plays out.

Wait…you think the vast majority of trump voters are wealthy?

Uhhhhhh…I don’t even know how to respond to that without feeling like I’m talking down to you.
