It’s a comforting thought, to believe destroying the world is their goal.

But no. In truth they simply don’t think about it. Their path to the power and resources that would save them and theirs from the world’s destruction might hasten that destruction. But that doesn’t matter. It’s easier for them to simply not think about it. They’re going to have everything they need to live a comfortable life, no matter the environment it brings about. They’re going to be fine.

What happens to the rest of us? It’s not even that they don’t care. We don’t matter enough for them to not care about us. We matter so little, our future doesn’t even occur to them.

It’s not evil. It’s apathy.
I’m not sure which is worse.

Not really. They’ll just raise their rates.

There is a save feature.

There’s no such thing as “raw” sausage. Uncooked maybe. But never raw, like carots or stake can be raw.
Sausage is ground meat mixed with all sorts of spices and things. Including yes almost always sugar and salt. Without the extra spices, it’s not sausage anymore. It’s just ground beef, pork, turkey, venison, whatever.

I tend to find them funny, and entertaining.
When a persons response seems far outside the norm, I know it’s not about me anymore. Then I just try to enjoy the show.
When they calm down, I might ask what it was really all about. Which can be constructive sometimes, or just it’ll just send them into another performance. Either way is a different kind of win.

Your example doesn’t really fit the scenario proposed by @CyanFen@Lemmy.one. You’re conflating multiple things. (Lots of people in this thread are)
Getting credit for the GPT essay, is unrelated to getting credit for completing the assignment.

In your example. The student would not get credit for completing the assignment. However they would get credit for creating the GPT generated essay. OpenAI does not.

If the assignment was to create a still life drawing, and the student turned in a photo. They get credit for the photo, not Canon who made the camera. The only issue is that the photo isn’t a drawing, so they don’t get credit for doing the assignment.

((52x30)-1000)0.015 is $8.40 over the $10 plan. You wouldn’t need the $25 plan yet.

And 52 is a huge number. I’d bet you could cut that in half easily.

I wasn’t sure ethor. My first month (last month), I used just over 180. This month might break 200, I have 5 days left. So I’m good.

Not sure where you are, but there’s practically no place in the US you get a lunch for that. In flat terms it’s quite cheep. It’s only expensive relative to free.

And when you think about it, your search service really is your internet. It shapes your whole internet experience. If that’s not worth $5/month to make sure it’s good and not polluted with ads, I don’t know what to tell you.

In September the game is being vastly reworked. Lots of the mechanics are being changed. The skill trees are being completely re-conceived. This will likely be it’s final form.

If you get it now and finish a play through by then, sure it’ll be worth it.

I’ve got nearly 800 hours into Cyberpunk2077.
It’ll probably be my goto game until its sequel comes put in a decade or so.

On Reddit I only ever down voted things that were actually bad advice. Things people shouldn’t do.

I think its been almost a month, since I intentionally went to Reddit. More than 3 weeks anyway.

I’ve done it. It does work.

Hold your fob a foot to the side of your head. Back away until it stops working. Take 2 more steps back to be sure. Then put the fob to your forehead. It’ll work again.

What it describes isn’t a “Wealth Tax” at all!

I get the feeling people are using the term wealth tax for anything that makes the wealthy pay more taxes.

It bugs me when clear specific terms get turned into uselessly ambiguous terms.

Does the Italic work better for emphases?

That title needs a lot of editing. It does end in a question mark, but it’s structured like a statement. Even if it is a question, it appears that your asking if it seems that way way to you. How is anyone else supposed to know how it seems to you?

Small pause. That’s all

Life is an act of consumption.

I’m thinking you care too much about the thoughtless reactions of anonymous strangers.
Remember… In this game, the points don’t matter.
