And is was interesting when he went trough a paper on light calculations when rendering object and new physics calculation on fluids. The bulk of his content now seems to be “LOOK AT THIS STABLE DIFFUSION!” With “CHATGPT! Look at the AI do stuff!”

I stopped watching because it turned into the AI channel and doesn’t actually talk about papers.

I think Vsauce is a lot more grifty than he looks. If you look at the really early videos they were very different and he changed his content wildly in order to find something that makes the most money with the least work. The science education happened to be profitable but as the Meta started favouring more than 10+ min and science vids became mini documentaries he just dropped off and started reviewing science toys and do compilation videos. Right now he is doing a lot of shorts because they are being pushed by the algorithm.

Definitely not how that works. All companies are taxed and they don’t get any special representation outside lobbying that they were going to do either way and churches do in fact put a lot of the money they should have payed in taxes into lobbying.

You know what is worse? Depressed bed blobs pretending that they are introverts and normalizing antisocial behaviour. Healthy introverts have and regularly meets friends. They just don’t do it as often and in the same way as extroverts. I know these things because I went to therapy instead of trying to normalize my insecurities on the internet.

Is fire an invention? I feel like it is something that happens to us wether we like it or not.

There is also no way to just be friends. The friendly option are also the fuck options so if approval gets too high you need to actively be an asshole to them.

Yeah, I particularly like the part in lord of the rings where Gandalf randomly tries to fuck Frodo because there was a small approve notification earlier when Frodo helped him open the door to moria.

Arguably that would make it even more effective.

That exists, it’s called a face tattoo.

Popular vote is what the most number of people want. The idea that popular vote is bad is anti-democratic.

Nobody should be allowed to own land. You can build a building and that building is yours because you built it but you can’t make land and the only reason you own it is because someone in the past used violence to take it.

All NFTs are scams and if you think any of it isn’t a scam it’s because you are getting scammed by that particular variant.

They are not giving such license and even if they did, it’s a completely different system that is called copyright law. We had that way before NFTs existed. The NFTs part of the system has absolutely nothing to do with the image and copyright management.

People think that because it’s the only way the whole thing isn’t a stupid waste of time and resources.

Also it isn’t bad art but it is art that is indistinguishable from any highschooler that likes to draw.

NFTs does not let you own images. The weird monkey company still owns all the monkeys. You own a piece of code that you can trade and monkey company pinky swears to keep a database where each piece of code has one unique monkey.

Should the monkey company ever want to go back on that promise they can just have 2 codes have the same image with no legal consequences.

I don’t think we should take our lessons from a third world country.

Community points isn’t supposed to be valuable. This is about making people start a vault/wallet and engage in crypto in a way that is fun and non threatening. They already tried it with the avatars but I doubt it got a whole lot of traction. At some point the real crypto currency will appear and suddenly reddit will have a platform with a couple of millions users that already has a wallet set up and ready. That will make reddit one of the biggest crypto platforms on the internet.

This is also what the API thing was about. Third party apps didnt/couldn’t include the vault on their apps so a lot of user didn’t even know the vault existed until now.

It is normal for features to be delayed in their launch. This feature has already been launched. I know it has been launched because for two days every rightoid grifter bragged about the money that was paid out in order to boost subscriptions for Elon. This is a case of not paying your bills. That is not normal, that is usually a Herald for bankruptcy.
