Yeah I think you could get away with that
Yeah I'm not 100% sure you're gonna have the best experience with the 3050. You could always try it and refund it later if it doesn't work but don't get your hopes up playing higher than low or medium
Alright
Cause an XX50 anything means its a low end card from Nvidia
Alright thank you

There are entire forums dedicated to people just making up fictional countries and regions
So I’m doing future predictions for my life by writing stories like how my date in 2 weeks will go. Problem is I’ve hit writers block now that we’re at the cafe.
Quick question: How does the multiverse fit into this?
Quick question: How does the multiverse fit into this?
Well I have some form of clairvoyance in real life. I’ve been able to predict people’s love lives mostly to women to 100% accuracy, and men haven’t been too willing to engage in my psychic predictions. But as to your question, there is about 2 outcomes to each action/thing we do. Essentially two different universes.

Wow, big ups, this sounds really good! I hope you get over the writer’s block, I’d love to read a sample if you ever decide to share
Oh, no I’m sorry LOL. I’m just writing future events in my life into stories
I gotcha now! Im really bad at that. That ability sounds amazing, and a bit like a burden maybe. And I can kinda agree on the last part
Yeah. I have generally have no clue how each “story” ends. I just keep writing until I reach the ending. Sometimes the story may not even be related to a date it could be something else entirely like have a reunion with an old friend you had a falling out with.

@Ecksell Based on earlier conversation, I figured you may be interested to know: TLOU 2 arrived today, I've been playing it, just got past The Moment that people were talking about for a while after launch. Cool Game so far
I never played it, but with your taste in games I am willing to give it a shot. Thanks for following up on that!
Hey, I've been trying to get supercredits, but can't seem to get anymore. I am stuck at 805 credits for some reason even if I try to get them for free, they don't count. Any solution to this problem? As I want to be able to afford a warbond.
That’s tough, but I think either #troubleshooting or one of the 3 Gen chats might help better than here at Off Topic
Imagine if we left the planets between the automaton and termind sectors alone and let both factions fight for their planets?

are you actually going onto new maps, or trying to do the old 'supercredits grinding cheat'? because if the latter, it has been patched out of the game for awhile now. you will only get the supercredits on the first time you enter the map and find them, no matter how many times you reset after
Ecksell, you don't have to ask me if a question is alright or not. Lol
I figured you were lurking haha. My own question is still valid though I think, and I value your input

I thought of the best zombie game If anybody here has ever played infected in call of duty, this might be the game so imagine this you get to pick a class scout, heavy, sniper, demolition, and the game will go as a battle Royale where it’s like one zombie versus 100 and zombies have infinite lives The more people you kill the more you go to a battle Royale WWZ type stuff and the last team standing wins And you get to customize your preferred class I mean, like Gilly suits, knight heavy armor, vests full of bombs and more

just wondering whats the difference between 980 pro and 990 pro m.2 nvme both are 2 TB just wanna know if the 980 pro is still good for gaming (with a firmware update, of course)
There isn't much of a difference. The 990 pro just has a tiny, negligible performance boost compared to the 980 pro. If the 980 pro is cheaper then going for that is better

The 990 is slightly faster

I'm late but even the 970 is more than enough for gaming. 980 vs 990 is in the realm of "do you want it" rather than "do you need it".

it'd still be kinda gross. but oh well, tech bros and destroying society are two things going hand in hand it seems
I think you forget that the way a capitalist company works is the endgoal is to typically generate profit. A company has no interest in upkeeping a persons financial health, they have interest in the productivity that person brings to the table through the money they pay them. If an alterior method means paying less money a company is always going to default to that. Its not so much a fault of AI so much as the way these companies use it. Using AI in materials science, for example, is quite a good way of using AI. I view it from the lens that all tech is morally neutral until put into practice.
and AI generative content is not "neutral" it is evil. pure and simple.

and AI generative content is not "neutral" it is evil. pure and simple.
It's neutral. You can use AI in material science to for example advance creating different materials in record time.
That's not generative AI
Yeah but we are talking AI here
Generative AI is still one use of AI though.
generative ai isn't ai 
i mean, it is kinda scraping the information and creations of others to even be able to know what a dnd magic item is or spit out results.... without their permission or acknowledgement to them.

So what you're saying is if I rip off Dragon Quest to make Pokemon it's fine but if I rip off Dragon Quest by AI to make something like Pokemon its bad?
but as soon as someone just smacks in "big titty goth gf" into some art generator and then be like "look i made art" they deserve a solid slap
I 1000% agree with you on this. Not artists in any sense of the word.
I 1000% agree with you on this. Not artists in any sense of the word.
people have patreons dedicated to posting ai art

Yeah but that's because they've tweaked the generation algorithm in such a way where the result is something that has an audience which wants it but can't access it, not because they're artists even though some may gaslight themselves as such.

dude, outright plaigerism and art theft isnt okay either, but saying something is ripped off just because its inspired by a rough concept is itself a problematic thought pattern. the issue here is, you can create beyond the scope of what you took in as inspiration. you have autonomy and human perspective and experience. an ai does not create. it just scrambles up the puzzle pieces of data it collected and reassembles them in a new form. It could never create a pikachu without the pieces to assemble them existing beyond, even if it has consumed other pieces of art of 'lightning rats' in idea.

An AI could create theoretically. Earlier I mentioned how in materials science AI has been used to invent different materials and advance materials science as a science. It might not be generative AI but its still trained on the priniciples of how those materials work.
without that data, it cannot create said material.
Yes but I'm arguing that AI can create something new, even if it utilizes existing information to do so.
without that data, it cannot create said material.

Question: What do I do again when I'm experiencing something that won't let me play the game? I've been trying to play but the screen keeps going dark and kicking me, today: I didn't even get to finish the mission briefing before the game screen went black. (I just don't know whether to DM someone about this or if there's a channel for this kind of thing)

dont think so, just make it your money's worth and play it a bunch

Not at that long no. Had to do the refund right after the whole psn debacle.
