You don’t need to buy physical copies. Games from GoG and, for example, itch.io can be downloaded DRM free.

Maybe because the goal of feminism is to have more equally not to bolster the ranks of marginalised people with even more women.
Maybe if men wanted to have more women in these jobs they shouldn’t be so fucking hostile and sometimes dangerous to women.
Maybe if men hadn’t built a society with only men in mind, including when designing equipment, procedures, etc., for these jobs, maybe women had a better chance doing them?
Today?? This is an issue, especially on the meme communities here.
And that’s the irony of the meme, isn’t it? I am guessing it was done by a man.
I never thought it would bother me, until I actually sat in a car where everything was dependent on software the first time.
At first I thought I was just getting old. But it dawned on me that relying on software to fucking roll down the windows or starting the car doesn’t feel too good.
(It was also an extreme jump in technology for me because the last car I drove before that was an old Corsa around the year ~2005.)
Shitty sexist meme.
That is something Palestine and especially Hamas will not accept. They have said multiple times already that they wish for a “pure Muslim state”.
So what is the solution for this problem, in your opinion?
If they didn’t have the funding they would all be dead already because they are regularly under fire from rockets. Not only now, but also before the last attack of the Hamas.
38 m^2, 2 rooms, 1 bathroom, 169000 € in a rural part of a bigger city in Western Germany.
That’s an exception, though. The house is a bit weird since it apparently stands next to a church in the backyard of some other building…
Why do you consider Hamas not inciting violence? And the many Palestinians and pro-palestinian protestors who openly ask to eradicate Israel and Israelis, Jews and so on?
RuneScape, Ark, … DOTA2 (especially with that cry for help).
Some people get lost for thousands of hours in grand-strategy games like Europa Universalis. Or MMOs like Eve Online.
But feeling like the game consumed you is grinder and MOBA territory.
It’s usually some rant about “brains are just probability machines as well” or “every artists learns from thousands of pictures of other artists, just as image generator xy does”.
With the difference that the industrial revolution created a lot of new jobs with better pay. While AI doesn’t. I see people suggesting that this has happened before and soon it will turn the economic situation into something much better. But I don’t see that at all. Just because it’s also a huge revolution, doesn’t mean it will have the same effects.
As you have written, people will have to switch into manual jobs like layering bricks and wiping butts. The pay in these jobs won’t increase just because more people have to work them.
Your fear is in so far justified as that some employers will definitely aim to reduce their workforce by implementing AI workflow.
When you have worked for the same employer all this time, perhaps you don’t know, but a lot of employers do not give two shits about code quality. They want cheap and fast labour and having less people churning out more is a good thing in their eyes, regardless of (long-term) quality. May sound cynical, but that is my experience.
My prediction is that the income gap will increase dramatically because good pay will be reserved for the truly exceptional few. While the rest will be confronted with yet another tool capitalists will use to increase profits.
Maybe very far down the line there is blissful utopia where no one has to work anymore. But between then and now, AI would have to get a lot better. Until then it will be mainly used by corporations to justify hiring less people.
I’ve often seen people on Lemmy confidently state that current “AI” thinks and learns exactly like humans and that LLMs work exactly like human brains, etc.
What is “too far” though? Is raising your children to follow specific religious rules already too far? Because I think it is, but many others think that’s okay. What about expecting your surroundings to accommodate your religion? At what point exactly is that going too far?
EA allows people to create games who normally wouldn’t have the money to do it.
Sadly, this is normal online. Many people with some sort of exposure online will receive death threads. Some communities are more prone to it than others.
Pokémon, Sonic, Osu! and many Gacha Game communities, for example, have an unusual amount of crazy fans. When you attract their attention you will become a topic in their communities.
The reason isn’t that they believe men are disposable. It is that they believe women are inferior. Just look at the comments in this topic.
