Yeah, but we all know what those bombs do, so many don’t participate in building them.

I’m gonna be that guy and say don’t use it then. The AI imigies are purely based on stolen art; you’d be profiting off stolen art. I don’t care how legal it is, it’s someone’s hard work being undermined just so your life can be easier. It’s just another way giant mega corps take power from the people. Instead of commissioning some artist or voice actor, you’re giving money to some giant mega corp that can lobby the government to place data centers that poison people’s water supply and increase people’s energy bills.

Any recommendations for Linux distros for a Jellyfin server?

This reminds me of my friend’s dad. He got crippled at a machanic job, so he’s on disability, but he still wants to be useful in his life and use his skills, so he does machanic stuff on the side. Some people might think this is cheating, but he can only reasonably work on cars like 15hrs a week, or it’ll fuck up his back so much he can’t walk for a couple of days.

A messed-up situation that some people get into is that some of these programs have a cut-off if you make too much money, but if you actually make that much money in income, you’ll have less than you would if you were slightly under that amount, because you have to pay for what those benefits would have given you otherwise.

It basically makes people stuck near the poverty line because these programs don’t really give that much assistance. In my state if you’re a family of three, the most you can earn is $915 a month in household income and the average payment is $221. This isn’t counting the other benefits you’d get booted off of if you reached different income brackets.

I’m looking at this living wage site right now https://livingwage.mit.edu/states/39 and from this page you can see that 2 working adults can’t both work your average Food Preparation & Serving Related, Building & Grounds Cleaning & Maintenance or Personal Care & Service job and be above to cover your average annual expenses if you have a single kid. So it’s really not worth it to get off these benefits unless you find a significantly better job than what’s available. Most of the other employment opportunities need some sort of education or experience as well.

Please correct me if I’m off base on any of this

I’m totally ok paying $30 for a ten hr game, I appreciate shorter games. But if it’s boring or unfun for a whole hour in, I’m getting a refund.

Loving and saving this whole thread, I’ll add in

Ones & Zeros, Vol. 1 - 3rdegree, not SUPER unique, but it’s instrumental and commitment to they’re concept album’s theme of uploading your consciousness into the internet gives it a ton of charm!

Larks’ Tongues In Aspic - King Crimson , very surprised I haven’t seen this one in the thread, a classic weird ass prog album by the Kings of Prog themselves (IMO of course). They got a guy to do a bunch of random sounds for the album and he left to become a monk days before they started the album tour lol.

This is why I invite people over when I can, give a reason for my place not to smell

They hating, but his got a chuickle outta me
