formerly BertoltMEHcht, i guess

that is not the hype, chris. that is marketing, or the use case (assuming improvements). "AI" is the hype, as evidenced by your usage of that instead of "LLM" in the OP

(sorry KISS Kasket*)

danger with a loud and garish death is that it fits too well with the whole KISS deal. he'd somehow sell tickets and put a qr code for the KISS KOFFIN they lower into the ground (real KISS merch, btw). a quiet, anonymous death would bother him so much more, and so i believe that's what he deserves

(either way, simmons is a dipshit and i think he should just quietly die)

disagree, but unless we're gonna get deep into musicology BS, where i would be forced to defend the (true) thesis that rock is itself a necessary antecedent to hip hop, all this stuff is subjective anyway. like i said, I've just been considering rock's cultural place due to recent *discourse*

from a former hard functionalist: the hype, THE very NAME "AI", implies an objective measure of intelligence that simply isn't supported, either theoretically or experimentally/observationally. the hype CAN NEVER be true, unless we 100% decode every human brain. yr philo profs are WEEPING, chris

idk about "ever" in your post. tbh. when gothenburg starts bragging about their "hip hop record stores and acts" per capita and the japanese start doing the hip hop equivalent of their 90s midwest emo crate-digging, maybe. (been on the mind due to the "american culture was nvr popular" discourse)

i am an american exceptionalist. (NORTH) american exceptionalism (about hockey and snowsports). we actually figured this out. just copy our notes, europe. (especially on the in-arena music, christ. would it kill you to play the opening to "for whom the bell tolls"? it's a hockey game! not Ze Club)

they need the sumo guys for intermissions. and timbits/bantams. sorry "the wave" and "crowd singing dogshit songs" are not adequate replacements

tbf, I'm seething here in Golden, CO (because it's a shitty song written by a misogynistic shithead that deserves its earned association with the gal godot covid lip sync)

he contains multitudes

2026 Slopestyle SILVER MEDAL WINNER* Alex Hall

i will never respect you american prem. club frontrunners. try this shit with fuckin SWANSEA, brother (actually, we've been in decent form of recent, tbh)

if elon had a normal dick he absolutely would have posted it by now

No son, they are not "magically delicious." The workers made them delicious. This is a slogan meant to mystify the social conditions of labor

even though i was up to watch it, I'm not watching halfpipe. dogshit event, always has been. thank god they added slopestyle a decade back. halfpipe is a whole pack of ass. simon dumont-assed event, fuck outta here

lotta stuff like this in the QTs and replies. at a certain point, just say "i don't think black people have culture" or "black people don't count as american" because otherwise you're defending an indefensible point, just like, on a factual basis

the Big Lesson that dems are gonna take away from Trump 2 is "cussing is okay"

A day filled with smiles, laughter and hoops 🤝

We love hosting the Special Olympics Clinic

i love seeing one of these ceos who history books will define as necessary antecedents to a skynet present. to a man: all too old to live in the world they're building for us. selfish cunts, hope they live to see their works, ye mighty, and despair

this post has inspired some of the worst takes I've seen in ages. just dogbrained shit

what a JOKER

lmao

it sucks, because the USMNT is PERFECT for this (bunch of dipshit Trump fans, most play for teams i hate). but this is kinda the USA golden generation, and i kinda hate canadian hockey arrogance, so even that layup eludes me. (plus, is losing to McD, MacK, and Makar that shocking?)

normally a lot more conflicted as a dual citizen (especially in the more evenly matched women's games), but now I'm 100% in on canada, just on a sympathy basis. beat those yank bullies!

they've been so surprisingly bad that I've been leaning toward that, lol. no Poulin is a big deal, but not "4-0" big

usa putting the work on a poulin-less canada. one wonders how much they're turtling for the medal rounds, but that might just be 50% canadian cope.

just burning our future

i guess I'd underestimated the extent of my reliance on seasonal rhythms, which feels moronic to admit as a winter sports enthusiast

really shitty year on all fronts. everything breaking down all at once--even shit we used as objective measurements, like "seasons"
