    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    While the specifics of it would be different now, the answer I came up with in college is still probably what I'd do: tell absolutely no one that I won, but my friends and family would suddenly find a lot of anonymous donations to support their dreams. Also, I'd buy an island.

    SkyNet really is ... here?

    Oh, no, I meant I don't know why ChatGPT didn't have anything to stop it from enabling and actively encouraging suicidal ideation. I don't really understand how a person can read it telling that kid to keep his thoughts a secret, so the space he killed himself would be the first place anyone saw...

    SkyNet really is ... here?

    That seems like something you'd have wanted to include a while ago. Reading the chatlog in that link is revolting.

    Both, I guess, although I wasn't really thinking about it in those terms. It's just coming down to the fact that I have no intention of ever rewatching TAS (maybe Mask of the Phantasm) but I'd watch an episode of BatB again.

    The Brave and The Bold was better than TAS

    Can we have (-) only threads now?

    Since I'm pretty sure I know what topic this is in response to, it would be "let's talk about this thing, but you're only allowed to post articles/videos about how it's bad."

    What are you reading in 2025?

    I finished Assassins Anonymous by Rob Hart today. Probably a 3 star book. It was entertaining but I saw most of the plot twists coming from a mile away and there were several moments that pulled me out of the book and think "this author is a nerd who spends too much time online" (the 21 foot...

    Draw Steel General Thread [+]

    Ah, we have different ideas about what counts as a ton of work. If you want the VTT to do all that for you, Owlbear won't cut it for you.

    HP was getting dissected for years before JK Rowling started tweeting about trans people, people were arguing about both the goblins and SPEW when I was in high school.

    I ran it in Owlbear Rodeo with very little work setting it up. I think I had to install two extensions.

    Jaws randomly being in the theater a few years ago, and then finding a local(ish) theater that shows old movie all the time got me going back to the theater for the first time since I was in high school. For some movies, it really is the only way to see them. In the spirit of the topic...

    This is what I came into this topic to say. If it hadn't been cancelled no one would care about it. I watched it for the first time in 2010, because my friends were playing the Serenity RPG and told me I had to if I wanted to join, and was immediately let down.

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    I'll echo the last two posts in that I've never noticed MoonSong as an annoying poster but is it not normal to ignore posters you've never personally interacted with? I've not interacted with most of the people I've ignored, just frequently found myself going "oh naughty word off" when I see their posts.

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    There are a ton of people I see talking about their group online and I can't understand why they wouldn't just stop. Just the act of having to always be the one in charge of scheduling, and reminding people of the schedule, and making sure they stuck to the schedule has made drop groups before...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    In America, anyone can claim to be a nutritionist since I don't think it's regulated in most (if any) states. I think this might be reversed with dietician in some of the other English speaking countries.
