Honestly, same. I don’t even know all the options yet, wanted to keep the suspense.

Prince of Persia trilogy could work. It's more linear than assassin's creed so it could offer a change of pace.

I mean, AI can be used to design a lot of robust yet efficient structures. In engineering and architecture, with enough data, AI can generate designs for buildings, and parts that are not only sturdy but can be built with less resources along with other design considerations. There's a really cool nasa video where competitors are trying to 3D print structures for habitation in space.

AI is also used in medicine to come up with new protein structures to create new medicine. It's also used in environmental sciences, to help predict earthquakes or monitor land use, etc.

There's a lot of practical uses for AI.

If I remember correctly, "have got to" is more informal than "have to". So yeah, it's cleaner/more grammatical.

I think most people use the "got" as a extra word to emphasize urgency in day to day conversation. So in that way, it's useful?

For music I tend to use Spotify's similar artists feature or have the Youtube rabbit hole take me somewhere new. Sometimes I'll even find new music from other media; like if I'm reading a fanfic and the author posts the song they were listening to when they wrote it, sometimes I check those out.

For books, it's usually word of mouth, and for a games, a mix of that as well as reviews from people and a perusal through Steam Sales. I'm not too big on movies though, I just let my loved ones drag me into what they want to watch and they tend to have good taste. For TV shows, I let spontaneous mood choose for me.

There's:

  • skribbl.io it's a draw and guess game, kinda like charades.

  • Transformice was also pretty fun. They have a steam version of the game now, I don't know if they still have a browser port though.

And microtransactions, it's on steam now.

I think when social media became more broadly adopted or even necessary for use outside of the internet. I still remember being forced to make a Facebook account to access schoolwork and notices from my school.

A lot of people were also just not taught about safeguarding your information on the internet. So when the human need to connect got more convenient, people ended up sharing whatever they thought without thinking of the consequences.

Maybe they're trying to cover their bases? I don't know what contracts they had with BWF for appearing on the channel during their whole streaming journey, but I imagine they didn't have ironclad contracts when they were under Geek & Sundry, and only got the particulars down more concretely when they established their own company/channel. Those terms may have also changed once BWF was let go.

From how I understood it, BWF was also trying to blackmail Ashley for money, and the fact that he still appeared on the channel while no longer being paid may have contributed to that sentiment. So by having BWF-centric content wiped out officially, it cripples any murky legalities he can claim.

It's kinda tricky because a lot of people who just left reddit, left for the reasons you're ranting about. I think that's why there's such a prevalence in posts that are anti-Meta/anti-Threads/anti-corpo. It's so fresh in everyone's mind how greediness has ruined a lot of communities they've built.

I will say, there's a learning curve to using the fediverse (I'm still getting the hang of it). But there's a way to get more "normal" content, you just have to deal with the reality that a lot of those communities are starting out and need your contribution to become a real community.

Besides, you don't have to completely give up reddit. I still use mine and I don't have any intention of deleting it any time soon.

It's alright. Story was okay. Combat was pretty entertaining; although I'd recommend playing on higher difficulty, the gear progression makes the game too easy. The crafting mechanic was also fun for a while.

I think the worst thing about it is map bloat, but if that's a nonissue for you, you might enjoy it.

Asexuality is a broad term that can refer to many things. Some people are genuinely sex-repulsed, some are completely indifferent, some can only experience sexual attraction when there's an established emotional bond, etc. All of these fit under the umbrella of asexuality.

You fit if you so choose to. It sounds to me that you have a high libido but no sexual "attraction" to people. There may be a more specific term under the ace spectrum, but the labels are really just there to help you find community.
