This was never an issue for me. I almost exclusively use the “home” (I guess that’s “recommend”) part of the youtube app and very rarely get AI videos in any form (voice, images etc.). The few times it’s happened I do I just tap the three buttons and select “don’t recommend channel”. About 80% of videos shown are from channels I watch regularly and the rest are a random mix of interest relevant things with a few completely random ones here and there. Not once has it been any AI heavy anything.

Goddamn Mt Fuji wannabe.

Talking Heads - (Nothing but) Flowers

Here we stand
Like an Adam and Eve
Waterfalls
Garden of Eden
Two fools in love
So beautiful and strong
Birds in the trees
Are smiling upon them
From the age of the dinosaurs, cars have run on gasoline
Where? Where have they gone?
Now, it’s nothing but flowers

There was a factory
Now there are mountains and rivers
You’ve got it, you’ve got it

We caught a rattlesnake
Now we’ve got something for dinner
You’ve got it, you’ve got it

There was a shopping mall
Now it’s all covered with flowers
You’ve got it, you’ve got it

If this is paradise
I wish I had a lawn mower
You’ve got it, you’ve got it

Years ago
I was an angry young man
I’d pretend
That I was a billboard
Standing tall
By the side of the road
I fell in love
With the beautiful highway
This used to be real estate, now it’s only fields and trees
Where? Where is the town?
Now, it’s nothing but flowers

The highways and cars
Were sacrificed for agriculture
I thought that we’d start over
But, I guess I was wrong

Once there were parking lots
Now it’s a peaceful oasis
You’ve got it, you’ve got it

This was a Pizza Hut
Now it’s all covered with daisies
You’ve got it, you’ve got it

I miss the honky tonks
Dairy Queens, and 7-Elevens
You’ve got it, you’ve got it

And as things fell apart
Nobody paid much attention
You’ve got it, you’ve got it

I dream of cherry pies
Candy bars, and chocolate chip cookies
You’ve got it, you’ve got it

We used to microwave
Now we just eat nuts and berries
You’ve got it, you’ve got it

This was a discount store
Now it’s turned into a cornfield
You’ve got it, you’ve got it

Don’t leave me stranded here
I can’t get used to this lifestyle

Their best song IMO, and weirdly a song many who are fans haven’t heard.

You’re asking the wrong question. They absolutely have games that are worth the effort, the question is “will they make new games that worth the effort?”
It’s surprising that isn’t obvious.

Many times, it’s just automatic sometimes when I bump into something.

The older I get the better I am at finding groups of people and fanbases where this doesn’t apply. I’m in a spot with music, cooking, visual arts, science and more both IRL and online that are just nice. And it’s not about lack of different opinions and being in a bubble, I just focus on and stay with people and groups who are nice about it.

The one’s on doesn’t are the ones who also doesn’t at home and if they do they don’t put it down afterwards.
Those people need to be forced to lick toilet seats until they learn some basic manners.

Being from a country and playing a sport in the country they immigrated to doesn’t mean the country they came from is big into that sport…
What you’re saying is like saying “many who like this very US specific food are not from the US, so that means that food is common outside the US.”
How do you not see the idiocy of that?
It’s still a mainly US specific sport, the fact that many who play it (in the US) aren’t from the US doesn’t change that fact at all.

I haven’t used MacOS or iOS for years so I’m out of the loop, but I thought Safari on both had pretty good extension support? I know Adguard is still great on both, a friend uses it (and I use it on my Linux and Android devices).

You are doing a great job at showing everyone you have no idea what you’re talking about. What you replied to says there wouldn’t be any splatter etc.

This post very single reply you’ve made here has only ticked more boxes on the list of showing your idiocy, ignorance and inability to understand basic concepts.

That title is written by someone who failed basic grammar. It should be “New Orleans will use AI instead of humans to answer 911 calls”.
What it says as it’s written is “AI will only answer 911 calls but not a human”… which doesn’t make any sense.

Nah, not for mosy people. I think that’s actually more common with people who use local models (maybe that’s what you were saying though?). My, albeit few, interractions with “normal” people have been pretty scary with how much they use AI in many ways. Most of my friends are very tech savvy and my family goes to me about stuff like this so they don’t use any either (because I’ve taught them, not just told, how bad and dangerous it can be). It’s not very often I talk with anyone else about this but, as said, the times I have it’s been real scary.

I’d explode into hundreds of empty snus and beer cans, and thousands of roasted and salted peanuts. I consume way too much of those three things. And “Alone Again Or” by Love or “I See the Rain” by Marmalade would play on loop at that specific spot until the end of the universe.
