Alan Parsons Project - Eye in the Sky.

I’m not sure you made it in time.

They have the world’s internet by the balls, and this weakness has really become apparent lately. This one looks like it may be even worse, as the 500’s are at a higher level. Not even branded custom error pages now.

Such a troubling outcome. This bench is the worst.

Jasmine Crockett, AOC, and up and comer Kat Abughazaleh are all smart as hell and super hot in my eyes.

Careful. You might burn yourself on that take.

I married at 18 and became a father just a year later. Been married 25 years, I and still cherish every wake-up next to my gal.

I’m not saying if you should or shouldn’t, at all. What I’m saying is sometimes, you know. Not that it will work, but that you’re ready to work for it. That’s it. You want to put the work in? If so, it might be the best time ever available to you. But it isn’t easy.

Some of us just enjoy spending the day with family and eating good food. Not for everybody, I accept, but I don’t understand the ire.

That’s good. I hope your family has a wonderful time together.

They’re still alive and kicking.

Johnny has been hit or miss for me over the years, mostly good though. But his works recently on wealth and politics have been superb.

Well, yeah me too. But my life being easier (food and money easier to come by) and comforts rarely in question - for me at least - does not equate to easier to make friends.

There is probably some truth to that, but I don’t think they’re mutually exclusive. I think both can be erosive to human expression at the same time.

Is it? It gets harder as time passes for each person. Friends become fewer, more busy, and farther apart. It may be that it is objectively harder now. What do I know as an old man? But it feels hard for everybody as they age individually. I have no close homies that I talk to regularly. 30 years ago, I had many.

Simple, the problem is the erosion of human directed art. That is a much broader problem than if the music is good or not; it may be. But we want, many of us anyway, humans making and being recognized for making art. Empowering this expression is less likely if everybody begins consuming only machine made works.

I’m an old man who just got a dog last year for the first time since I was a boy. I thought I didn’t want one because it required extra, unnecessary responsibility. Also, because the whole “have to feed them with many animals” thing. Setting that last bit aside, I had no idea how much these cuddles meant to mental health. Affection with my number one homie daily brings me more joy than anything else I can imagine.

Parenting

And then force the child into quiet in the name of atheism? That “if” is doing a lot of heavy lifting here. It isn’t a religious problem that people harm others; that’s an animal problem. But it very is a religious problem that the faith is used to silence accountability, and for that fuck religion.

Suggesting something open to doubt isn’t debatable is just not knowing what the word means. There are dictionaries available to the public.

Suggesting the device is underpowered in all contexts is just silly. If I want a device to play Stardew Valley, Braid or some other game with very different people requirements than Cyberpunk, it may not be underpowered… to me.

I get that you’re one of those people that just can never ever accept they are maybe making an objective statement about a subjective value, but you should introspect a bit. You said it wasn’t debatable. We have debated. I doubt your position. End of story.

If you want to compare this to flat earth, fine. Rest assured, nobody will likely find and follow this thread.

FWIW, I think I probably agree with some of your sentiment. It would be better if more powerful. It is underpowered for many of the modern generation of games, etc. Not for you. No problem. Maybe others will like it. ¯\(ツ)/¯

You don’t seem to understand that “underpowered” requires context. Nor do you that what we’re having here is a debate, thus making it debatable nevertheless.
