Language evolves, as it always has

Especially in informal writing, tone is important, so various techniques end up developing to transmit that tone. Formal writing, which is what writing mostly used to be used for, does not use large amounts of tone

However also, for many many people smartphones are their only way to access the internet, and it’s the primary device for computing in poorer nations I believe

If there’s one “essential” electronic device these days, it’s the smartphone.

Ok but you go to bed at like 20

I hate being right

Why do people keep being fooled by rich assholes

It’s kinda sad how many times people have thrown out racial (and other) slurs in my games. You’d think people would have grown out of that by now

I’m just gonna pretend that I didn’t hear the “without harming yourself” part and go absolutely all out on giving my all just to please others with no regards to my own well being because I only feel like I have value when I do things for others and not intrinsically like you’re supposed to feel and it feels too weird when people do nice things to me just because which I then in turn reject to give more of myself to others :3

500 USD in 2006 is worth the equivalent of 780 USD now though

Wtf, what is this heresy, this isn’t monster! /j

The general young population uses a fair amount of LLM services, so yes

Aren’t animals commonly-ish being recorded faking injuries such as a hurt/broken legs? Maybe the videos were fake too but there are certainly videos out there of dogs limping (and switching the leg they limp with) even though their legs are fine

But… Then that’s literally false?

Yeah, modern AI-assistants are LLMs, that’s not surprising. I’d even argue that LLMs are the right tool for the job here (but not all AI, or at least only as the part that binds the rest together)

I’m very disappointed people are making fun of the kids, honestly. It’s like people forgot how this is the exact same situation as when we were kids, with the older people making fun of us

I was hoping that the cycle would have been broken with the internet, but I guess not

It’s just the next step in the evolution of language, humour, culture, and expression, it happened before, and it will happen again. Except it will be somewhat different this time with the internet allowing complex, instant, and global communication. Things will certainly change and develop much faster than they used to. This to me, however, is just exciting more than anything else, I love novelty and new stuff

I mean, queer people use about/among themselves sometimes. Over time it might get more reclaimed like “queer” was

But it will take time, either way, and some people will never be okay with the word, as they have too much bad association with it, just the same as with “queer”

I sometimes use it for comedic value, though relatively rarely. I avoid using it among people who I don’t know well, though

This is just posadism

However I have a slight problem in that I struggle to connect to my mirror image even when awake and sober lmao

Then again, sometimes it does feel like I’m dreaming when awake and sober so

Sure, but deadlock isn’t exactly late. And if there’s a time when you want to add more developers, then an alpha when the game is still in the early stages is the best time to do so

I mean, they’re not gonna stop developing deadlock once it comes out. It’s likely gonna be a decade long project at least. More hands won’t hurt.
