I'm going insane looking at comments praising the 1995 TV spot, going on about how it makes them teary-eyed and such, and how the AI remake is a travesty. That shit already looked like if you put a Norman Rockwell artbook in the blender, drank the mixture and subsequently got sick on the Vegas Strip.

This is crappy and weird but it could have been worse: unlike the Toy's Are U's advert they wisely decided not to include any human. Which in turn makes the caravan of trucks look eerie and sinister. You can't win them all.

Considering the user is trying to cheat on a test about elder care of all things, Gemini might have a point there

Holy shit I had no idea there was a left wing branch of the mad cryptofascist meme stock cult.

it's really fucking dumb because trump got 2 million less votes than in 2020. really great map for learning the wrongest possible lesson from this election.

Dem talking heads spending so much energy courting moderate conservative votes was an excellent way to demobilise their base. They really gave their all to lose an election that should have been a free win.

i do love how the "anti-imperialist" protest vote against harris was a choice between like three or four putin apologists. the state of the US left is really fucked up and i don't want to look at it ever again.

We also have stuff like DLSS, which is pretty cool and I imagine ends up being more efficient in energy usage. The key thing I believe is it's built as a specific tool for a specific purpose, instead of general purpose slop machines eating humongous databases to excrete absolutely nothing useful for anyone.

Ah awesome! I didn't think it was because you can't upload pictures, but maybe you can in the "Revisited" version!

I think it's fine to have little art games that are only interesting to play for a few minutes. They can still have an impact that stays with you forever. Catacombs of Solaris for instance is one I love and think about all the time.

These AI guys though, god it must be so sad working on this stuff. They can't be proud of what they're making if the goal is to trick people into thinking you can have a real Minecraft game in there. The game is not even relevant, as far as I can tell they're only using it to draw attention to their stupid and doomed ASIC business.
