Ugh, it was in mine. It's off now.

IT GETS WORSE

I had to turn this off, but it's something that allows Windows and anyone using your device to generate text/images.

LOBOTOMIZE YOUR MACHINES

AI is a freacking plague, I share this for any windows user.

8 hours of decent sleep will have you thinking things like 'i am a beautiful horse and i will never die'

Personally I think all scientists should be evil lesbian DJs

Imagine that everywhere in the mechanical engineering world suddenly got infatuated with lasers.

Lasers have a lot of uses! Measuring things, heating things, cutting things, entertaining cats, particle physics. Lasers are pretty cool. Very versatile, very useful, potential to be very powerful.

Someone shows up one day and says "I have developed a never before seen technology! I call it a Death Star."

And it's a 3.4mW laser. Well no, we haven't seen this exact size of laser much since that's not really standard, but that's a bit of a misnomer, and I wouldn't call it new -

"HOLY SHIT GUYS! This Death Star is so entertaining! My cat loves it and it has such a nice color!" The Death Star becomes a viral novelty, and is mildly entertaining, as laser pointers often are.

Somehow, seemingly overnight, this leads to mania. "Lets stick lasers in EVERYTHING! The public loves them!"

More companies make 3.4mW lasers to jump on the bandwagon. Everyone that makes anything vaguely mechanical starts sticking lasers into their designs.

Everyone is calling them Death Stars. Any time there is a "Death Star innovation", it is just that they made a bigger laser.

Ford's next truck comes out and it has "Death Star integrated headlights", where they have just stuck giant lasers in place of their previously functional headlights.

An electric toothbrush is now "Powered by Death Stars" and shoots a laser at the tooth its cleaning. You think that maybe this could have actual applications as a sanitizing device if you're being generous, but when you actually look at the product, its laser has no purpose but to point at the tooth and drain the battery.

Mechanical products across the board get noticeably worse as everyone starts stuffing lasers in places where lasers have no right to be.

The lamp business gets in on it. "Here's a Death Star powered lamp!" These guys haven't even tried to stick a laser in their damn lamps. They've just started calling their light bulbs Death Stars and hoped you bought it before you could tell the difference. You at least appreciate that they haven't ruined their lamp about it.

Death Stars are lauded as the solution to all the world's problems. If it's not working, you should stick a laser in it! That'll fix it, everyone says. Once in a blue moon, it's even true! Weather prediction is really good now. But most things are garbage. Like "Death Star powered washing machines". What the fuck does that even mean?

Meanwhile, since all functioning mechanisms are being replaced with lasers, problems start showing up. All mirrors now cost $1000+ dollars, because the whole supply is being used up to make more lasers. The earth heats up, because everyone's blasting lasers at everything. People keep going blind, on account of all the lasers.

You, in fact, study optical mechanics. You know what a laser is, and how it works, and that it was invented many years before any of this nonsense actually started. People keep asking you about Death Stars, since surely you must know so much about them.

You explain that this is not really what lasers are for, except you have to call them Death Stars now, and that they're causing a lot of harm, so you don't like them much.

"Oh, but they're still such new tech!" they reply. "They'll figure out how to make Death Stars that don't burn your eyes out soon, and then it won't be an issue anymore!"

Somewhere, deep and buried, you remember lasers being used in particle accelerators, or in telescopes, or in laser cutters, or funny cat videos. They are, in fact, still interesting. Still cool.

But by this point they have replaced roads with "Death Star Powered Pathways", which are just laser pointers propped up on tooth picks pointing vaguely through the forests.

And you think you are going mad.

And they are still just FUCKING LASERS.

This post is about AI.

drew a little piece to celebrate getting star 10 on unbeatable :]

[catgirltraveler]

Too lazy to match the game's font. Go my lesbian

[attex]

[thegayestaddams]

@praythisdemondies @pearlescentsystem from my very limited understanding of unbeatable uh. sforzando?

[praythisdemondies]

That’s for her to say really but I vote YES

[literary-sparks]

“Why don’t you use ai” idk man beyond the obvious environmental and “this machine causes psychosis and encourages people to kill themselves” thing I think asking the equivalent of a solid D student who is also a pathological liar if they can answer my question/do the work for me seems pretty fucking stupid

[marziemoo]

last big bunch

sentences that mean a lot to me

my personal hell.png

A doodle from fan expo. I spent half of thursday night drawing this. We had croissants at our hotel and at one point while me and Pearl were both half-out of our cosplays they went up to me and took a bite of a croissant very tauntingly so obviously I had to draw it with Sif and Sforz

The corner doodle was a bit after the fact where Pearl remarked that after seeing Siffrin's reaction to the croissants there's a pretty good chance they'd wake up to her holding one over them one morning. Just to see what would happen lmao. Because she's THAT kind of fucked up mad scientist.

If you get the reference in the back ur a real one. if you don't... don't worry about it. I didn't feel like drawing a real person today so it stays unfinished lmao sorry

Also drawing Sforzando is hell so I did a teeny tiny pose study

this one's named "that's one impressive slouch you've got there.png"

Pearl spent the entire weekend trying to perfect the slouch and I think they did pretty good in the end!! Give them a round of applause everybody 👏👏👏👏👏👏

If you're comfortable accusing anyone of faking disability, you're not a real ally to disabled people

[teaboot]

One time when I was a kid a group of girls and I had to treat another student for hypothermia by ourselves because she had so many invisible health issues that the adults we asked for help didn't believe us. The student in question was actively hallucinating. When I finally ran for help the people I grabbed were slow as shit to respond, casually joking about how "dramatic" the person in question was.

The kid was picked up by an ambulance 30 minutes later.

Now as an adult working in security I get SO MANY folks- upper-middle aged mostly- coming to me to 'rat out' people they think are faking it.

I was once sent into a bathroom because a client demanded that the "fucker won't get out, so go drag them out"- I was NEVER going to do that, so I did a wellness check instead. You know who it was? A person recently released from the hospital after a car accident. They had a hole in their skull and major hearing loss. They couldn't answer the owner because they couldn't HEAR the owner.

Another time about a homeless man who got around town by kicking the ground from his wheelchair. "You know he doesn't actually need that thing, his legs work fine, it's just for pity points"- Oh, so he's not paralyzed, his wheelchair is performative? Funny story Dale, I actually know that guy, he was backed over by a truck and has chronic pain from his shattered pelvis. But sure, let's make him stand up and walk everywhere so nobody feels too bad for him and tries to help him or something.

"She doesn't need that scooter, I've seen her get out of it."

"Look how fat he is, because he just rides around and refuses to get up."

"She doesn't really need that cane- she comes here without it all the time"

Sincerely, truly, from the bottom of my heart- as someone who isn't physically disabled but hears this shit all the time- fuck off

I want to hug Beat from UNBEATABLE so badlyyyy I think she'd be a really comforting person to be around

It genuinely might be concerning and maybe even telling of my mental state to say that I get sad when I think about the fact that Beat, a literal fictional character, potentially wouldn't like me

I don't even mean any of this in a lesbian way (for once) I just really like her and I think she's genuinely my favourite character in any media ever now

[marzzapan]

you're nothing, but even that's still something. even if it's unraveling at the seams, it's proof that you're alive.

that you're a person.

you have to be a person, Beat.

[melodythemayhem]

Unbeatable is fucking great

Beat is so me, Quaver is so 12, Clef is the best band member, Treb is Treb, Rest is gay, Penny's gay

Fuck DC for very obvious reasons, fuck Crest for being a himbo and fuck Poco and Apoco also for obvious reasons

also Jamie Paige is goated with the sauce

[ashhole22838]

thinking about... unbeatable... and the songs

IGDRLSIUGHLSUKD I LOVE YEAH YEAH YEAH YEAH YEAH YEAH YEAH YEAH SO SO MUCH IM FUCKING CHEWING ON IT AND I CANT REMEMBER ITS NAME BUT THE LESBIAN BEAT SONG AND COP TRAUMA THEYRE ALL SO PEAK

BONUS IM LISTENING TO SQUARE UP RN

[the-video-games-enthusiast]

Was thinking about the critiques of Unbeatable's story, the style of communication, the disjointed storytelling, the lack of context, the pacing. I understand where people are coming from, but I wasn't bothered by those things. I wanted to talk to all the npcs, hear everything they had to say, do every sidequest, learn as much as possible about the world and people, and I enjoyed doing that. It didn't feel slow to me, because I wasn't in a rush to be anywhere. Even as a rhythm game enjoyer, I wasn't itching for the next rhythm section. It's the same to me as any other narrative game. Hearing people describe their negative experience with it, it clicked that they're describing how I feel as a specific type of neurodivergent navigating this neurotypical world. A lot of just rolling with the punches with minimal information or context. So, when people are flung into my world and they're confused or annoyed, it's like "What do you mean? Isn't it always like this?" This is not me diagnosing anything to the devs, or saying the critiques are not valid, or it was all intentional, actually. It's more, try to understand a little what it's like to constantly feel like you're in a "Thank God You're Here" scenario.
