the moment any media replaces any human labor with AI it is dead to me. And anyone with any iota of appreciation for the hard work that goes into their games, books, music, illustrations, animations, etc etc etc should feel similarly
Not to be the fun police but I do hope people know that Arc Raiders does use generative AI for voice acting, and by supporting the game you're letting higher-ups know that this is an okay practice.
They try to downplay this on the Steam store page by describing the AI usage as vaguely as possible.

utilizes AI is saying you don't care about the hard work someone puts into something - and that no one should care about the hard work YOU put into a thing.

Sleep is a biological necessity, and sleep deprivation has real physical, psychological, and social consequences that need to be taken seriously. The way our society treats it as slothful to sleep according to natural rhythms (including midday naps and variant chronotypes like night owls) is evil.
Do you have any extremely niche, but serious, ethical stances?

Somehow wound up on Xitter and stumbled upon this thread. Five years later: a reskill into entry-level software engineering allowed us to juuust barely be able to get a mortgage. My very first one! Most other debts are paid off, but saving a nest egg is slow going. Everything else holds true.

(🌿) I want a tamagotchi. It'll be the first one I ever had. Back in the 90s, when I was the first target audience for a virtual pet, I was too much of a tomboy to ask for a tamagotchi instead of a digimon.

(🌿) Have you ever intentionally tried to burn yourself out on something, because it is *too* delicious? I have a freezerful of cheap, store-brand ice cream sandwiches, as a leftover from a big event a couple weeks ago.

“AI is coming to take our jobs” no it isn’t. It’s a CEO named Gary taking some shitty advice from a VC who has never had a real job in their life, trying to maximise their quarterly earnings by firing as many people as they can get away with to make number go up, and it isn’t sustainable

I Forgive a Country
Restoring German citizenship, I believe, offers Holocaust survivors and their descendants an opportunity to try to recover from past trauma and encourage spiritual growth.
