Except when you want to customize it to stop it from updating against your will. Then fuck you, secret code to change your settings and settings that simply do nothing.

Some apartments with central hot water have a recirculation pump, so the water is almost always hot. My building has one. The water is always hot, but for some fucking reason the hot water is like right next to the cold water, but the cold water doesn't have a pump, so the cold water pipes will get hot from the flowing hot water. Then when I turn on my shower the cold water will be just as hot as the hot water... for like a minute, making the entire thing fucking pointless because you still have to wait to get in. But I can burn myself on demand so I've got that going for me.

Making models without a mountain of data is just engineering lol. That's what we were doing before, are still doing, and will continue doing for the rest of our existence.

Hentai has a story though. The characters have experiences and respond to them. There is a continuity to it. It wouldn't be nearly as popular if it was just random variations on a theme for every image. That's super fucking boring. It's not about how real or true the images are, it's about how good the story is at making us feel horny. AI gen slop can't even tell a coherent story at all.

Yeah. I ran into some ai generated porn a while ago without realizing it immediately and initially it was certainly very hot. Once i realized what it was my interest died completely and I realized the flaw with ai gen porn is the complete lack of narrative continuity, especially in the meta sense. You will only ever get the first thing you see and maybe some similar looking derivatives. You'll never get it to make a true story exploring ideas and boundaries, or even just being able to make the same character consistently, let alone in different circumstances or within a larger meta context. It's the most soulless art possible. It says nothing and it means nothing, and people are going to realize they care about those things when the novelty wears off.

It baffles me that medical device manufacturers use windows for fucking anything. You'd think just the licensing cost would push them away, but it being hot garbage for embedded software should have been enough. It's amazing any medical device certification process would allow them to use it at all, with the notorious unreliability and not giving a shit what you think about updates. People could die because of a fucking windows update at the wrong time.

Startup nightmares would either be cathartic or give me ptsd flashbacks.

Try and stop me. I don't even have windows installed anymore.

Fifth Element - Bruce Willis

The attempted mugging would be hilarious. The cookie monster screaming "gimme da cookies!" Miss Piggy as the supreme being.

I mean. For me it was the constant forced updates, the adversarial secret config options that may or may not be misdirecting lies that do nothing, constantly forcing edge install, every (forced) update causing worse performance and making the ui shittier, trying to shove one drive down your throat so they can harvest that sweet personal data, forced online accounts, etc.

 

I keep thinking about the experience of feeling body envy towards cis women. Since I cracked my egg I've started to notice I have two distinct sets of feelings towards cis women, which can sometimes overlap, one being romantic/sexual desire and the other being envy for their body and femininity. I think for a long time I conflated those feelings and thought I felt sexual desire towards women who really I just wanted to be, and at other yet more unfortunate times didn't recognize my sexual desire for someone as such due to the lack of envy. It's made me wonder how much of my sexual life and awakening has been colored by my desire to be the women I thought I just wanted to bone. Definitely some at least.
