  • It is sensitive subject, but dont act like it is something everybody everywhere are familiar with it.

    For example i was something like 14 or 15 years old when i saw somebody with differend colour skin for the first time (outside of tv). Slavery was also just a side note on history classes, not because it was covered in shame, but because it did not play any major role in our history. It was just something that happened somewhere.



  • Ai uses energy --> Using AI to make stupid shit uses energy for stupid things.

    You can use mental gymnastics as much as you want about base load of electric grid or stabilising the load or what ever, but it does not change the fact that when you use AI it uses energy that would not be used othewise.

    Saying that it does not matter if the generator powers your AI waifu or something else is just moronic. I can also say that leaving my tv on or not shutting my lights when leaving the house effects jack all in the global sense, but that is not reason to not shut those down when i leave my apartment.



  • Mostly agree with you, but two things.

    1. Movement techniques should always be optional and not necessity to do. Somebody wants to zip around and somebody wants to stay still and fire away. Some mechanics solve problems, but some just are there to give freedom.

    2. Guns. They have spend three main games and four spinoffs building the companies. At this point the manufactorers are basically characters. Why chance it?










  • Vinegars first and most important thing is its acidity. Its one of the building blocks for deeper taste in dishes.

    Most condiments and seasonings taste bad on their own. You probably wont enjoy spoonfull of salt or pepper either so you dont need to enjoy vinegar on its own.

    Some people like salt and vinegar chips, some enjoy sourcream and some like their chips with habanero.

    As for salad dressings, vinegar is often used with oil to get emulsion for the dressing and historically its good for preserving food so many recepies still work around that taste. Not too dissimiliar why many food cultures use chili and paprika. Strong flavors were used to both preserve food and hide the possible moldy tastes.

    Personally i like vinegar when it highlights and deepens the taste of food, but does not cover anything under it.
