Tell you what Nicole is really dedicated to making friends on here. Messaged just about everybody, with multiple accounts even. Definitely nothing suspicious about that /s
The fact that they're still doing this means people are falling for it, and I feel sorry for those people, cause this scam is clearly designed to prey on those who feel lonely and are too naive to know better
Yeah...
A game with actual gambling disguised as a loot system - perfectly fine, PEGI 3+
A game that depicts gambling but has no actual gambling in it - absolutely fucking NOT, PEGI 18+
I can understand why PEGI would be hesitant to give a game depicting gambling a rating of 3+...
But putting it as 18+, on the same level as actual, real money gambling games is ridiculous.
It shows a complete lack of awareness regarding the difference in danger between depiction of gambling vs actual gambling. And perhaps more dangerously means malicious publishers (cough EA cough) are able to get away with slipping disguised real money gambling into their games (and in front of children eyes) unnoticed.
Unless Anon is willing to put in some serious work, like properly going back to school or busting their ass learning (and getting good at) a trade, then their life is kinda fucked.
You can't just crawl out of almost 20 years of NEETing into really any kind of job, especially without the charisma to at least try masking it.
Also fuck knows why Anon's parents just let them drop out of school and basically cease to exist outside of playing videogames for best part of two decades. That's plain bad parenting.
Genuinely fuck Musk. Cries he's being called a Nazi while doing everything in his power to act like one.
Nobody does a Nazi salute by accident Elon... And especially not with a face looking like he just bust a nut while doing it.
Exactly. These should be Onion headlines.
We're living in interesting times right now, for better and for worse.
Ah yes, let us trust the fascist to tell us that the another fascist is clear of wrongdoing.
I'd be willing to bet the Jewish community outside of Israel doesn't agree with Netanyahu's sentiments on Musk
How the fuck do people keep giving him more money??
Most of his ventures are dumpster fires, and SpaceX only runs well because he doesn't touch it.
Yeah, I feel bad for Anon getting shouted down for trying to be helpful, but sometimes you've got to stay out of the way
That's part of why I asked, cause I'm sceptical they can see it in the first place, never mind that's its probably not Potato's actual IP given how much they're advocating VPN use
Is that for @PotatoesFall@discuss.tchncs.de's IP?
Cause if they're working for a VPN company and recomennding you use a VPN, surely they must be using a VPN themselves
Well in that sense you're breaking the law of your land by commenting on such a forum since we're on the high seas here if you didn't notice?
I'm aware of where I am, as I said before I have no problem with piracy - my main point was that just because we're fine with it, doesn't just magically make it legal - which is what you were implying.
And no, I didn't intend to be rude if you're inferring that but it's blatantly clear what this forum is for and them being employed by someone who purports to protect their privacy selling such a service but then feigning ignorance
Feigning ignorance of what? That it's probably not the greatest idea to be flogging around your actual IP address while doing potentially illegal/unlawful activities?
From my PoV, @PotatoesFall@discuss.tchncs.de wasn't feigning ignorance, the question was a retort to a non-sequitur. One's view on the validity of laws (i.e. only being illegal cause Disney said so) doesn't change them - I've seen enough "Sov Cits" find that out the hard way to not make that stupid mistake.
LLMs are made to mimic how we speak, and some can even pass the Turing test, so I'm not surprised that people who don't know better think of these LLMs as conscious in some way or another.
It's not a necessarily a fault on those people, it's a fault on how LLMs are purposefully misadvertised to the masses
