funnystuff97@lemmy.worldto Unpopular Opinion@lemmy.world•If watching people play sports is a meaningful use of time, then so is watching people play video games.6·1 year agoI think it goes both ways. Sports fans, clueless to the eSports scene, might say, “what’s the fun in watching someone play video games when you could just play them?” And I could say the same, and indeed I regularly say as much: “why watch someone play basketball, let’s just go play a pickup game.”
I don’t watch sports or esports, nor do I watch streamers very often, but I understand in all aspects that it’s for the entertainment value. In picking a team/player, watching their improvement, attending their games, proudly sporting their merch, etc etc.
I guess what I’m trying to say is, don’t let a clueless nobody disparage you doing what you enjoy.
funnystuff97@lemmy.worldto Aneurysm Posting@sopuli.xyz•[Meta] This the here with because anyone even best can again.41·1 year agoman & girl go out to drive under moonlight. they stop at on at a side of road. he turn to his girl and say: “baby, i love you very much” “what is it honey?” “our car is broken down. i think the engine is broken, ill walk and get some more fuel.” “ok. ill stay here and look after our stereo. there have been news report of steres being stolen.” “good idea. keep the doors locked no matter what. i love you sweaty”
so the guy left to get full for the car. after two hours the girl say “where is my baby, he was supposed to be back by now”. then the girl here a scratching sound and a voice say “LET ME IN”
the girl doesn’t do it and then after a while she goes to sleep. the next morning she wakes up and finds her boyfriend still not there. she gets out to check and man door hand hook car door.

Secondly, I mean, I don’t condone shady businesses practices or grifting. But man, whoever running that is an absolute genius. Scammer for sure, and while I hate scammers to my very core, something about scamming these people in particular feels so very poetic. Someone should maybe tell them, but man… this is funny.
honestly, hikigaya can be such an absolute chad sometimes

funnystuff97@lemmy.worldto Actually Useful AI@programming.dev•AI-generated articles prompt Wikipedia to downgrade CNET’s reliability rating81·1 year agoIt’s a marketing thing. Calling LLM’s “AI” was a very intentional move, to evoke that sense of hyperintelligence. Whether it’s truly an artifical intelligence up for debate, but calling them AI absolutely helped them gain attention (good and bad).
Also, obligatory “shut up Avina”.

funnystuff97@lemmy.worldto Gaming@lemmy.world•Ok, is this the best one yet? How do we top this?English22·1 year agoThat’s the case for a lot of the “doom runs on it” ones, like that pregnancy test. But I like the idea that if it can compute, it can run Doom; if it can display, it can play Bad Apple.
What if it happened at night? Then we’d be fine, right?
my absolute dumb ass, eating a bunch of those, enjoying the coffee flavored chocolates at 9 PM, wondering why my heart was racing and being unable to sleep at 3 AM
I have no idea why, but convention. And not a thing where nerds like me gather to dork out about something, but a scientific standard. Whenever I’m explaining something, and someone asks why it operates that way, I’m always like, “it’s that way by… uh… y’know, it’s always been that way.” No clue why I always blank on that word specifically.
funnystuff97@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Google Promises Unlimited Cloud Storage; Then Cancels Plan; Then Tells Journalist His Life’s Work Will Be Deleted Without Enough Time To Transfer The DataEnglish643·2 years agoNaive, perhaps, but if a company advertises a service, they better fucking deliver on that service. Sure, I wouldn’t store all of my important documents solely on a cloud service either, but let’s not victim blame the guy here who paid for a service and was not given that service. Google’s Enterprise plan promised unlimited data; whether that’s 10 GB or 200 TB, that’s not for us nor Google to judge. Unlimited means unlimited. And in an article linked in the OP, even customer service seemed to assure them that it was indeed unlimited, with no cap. And then pulled the rug.
And on top of that, according to the article, Google emailed them saying their account would be in “read-only” mode, as in, they could download the files but not upload any. Which is fine enough-- until Google contacted them saying they were using too much space and their files would all be deleted. Space that, again, was originally unlimited.
Judge the guy all you want, but don’t blame him. Fuck Google, full stop.
