Would you alter your timeline?

I would, with mine.

My timeline is:

Born in '89 Toddler/Child in 90s Teenager in 00s' Young Adult in '10s Adult late '10s to present.

I'd want mine altered so that it'd be:

Born in '70 Toddler/Child in 70s Teenager in 80s Young Adult in 90s Adult in 00s'

And by now I'd probably be closing in on my 50s.

What's your thought on AI generated content?
  • I believe it has a use.

    Like, AI can make up roleplaying assets and what graphics needed to be made to translate what objects are and everything. Stuff like that.

    But using it for art contests, for bigger projects and all? It makes you look lazy.

  • Can Software Piracy Be Justified?
  • Yeah.

    For example, does Microsoft deserve my money for how much of a dumping they've taken onto Windows since Windows 8? No, they don't.

    Because if I did give Microsoft my money, I'm REWARDING them for their half-assery.

  • How does patientgamers feel about free games on Epic?
  • I'm over the politics of game launchers. Like, a free game is a free game, some devs/publishers probably get paid to get their game released for free. I've taken advantage of them, I wish I hadn't deleted one of my Epic games accounts before where I nearly had gotten every game that I actually had wanted that was given away for free. But I was naive because I got caught up in the stupid pissing contest between Steam fanboys and Epic fanboys.

    Ultimately, it doesn't matter. Free is free. I would rather a free whole game, than a freemium game, which is all that Steam mostly offers.

  • Are Trump supporters just fueled by Racism & Hate?
  • All of trump supporters were single-voters who believed that Trump would solve all of their individual problems.

    Some vote for him because they want the gays out.

    Some vote for him because they want men empowered.

    Some vote for him because they want immigrants deported.

    Some vote for him because they just want job security.

    And other things. They don't realize or care to realize that, he and the party he represents, have no ambition to change things for the better.

  • Who's rolling grave would probably generate the most electricity and why?
  • Considering how badly Eisner ran the company in the 2000s to whoever is running it now. How the company treated his brother and so on. How Disney don't really value hand-drawn animation to the point of firing all of them.
