I used to have keyboard aliases for them because a style manual I had to work to required them. I also used to have filters in my editors that would automatically convert a series of hyphens to dashes.

If they start using them for intel gathering type stuff, they really couldn't leave such a way of immediately detecting them that even a moron could understand.

I think it's got a lot to do with convenience - language is flexible and changes with the needs and constrictions of the time, so even if using a hyphen in place of a dash isn't strictly accurate to historical writing, the lack of a dash key on normal keyboards sort of aggressively encourages it as an alternative, and if you live in that reality for long enough, it sort of forces itself into the standard.

We might not like it, but on the other hand, we've gotta also understand that plenty of our spellings, structures, and other facets of our languages are built on similar ad-hoc manhandlings of language based on similar situations; language is a very fluid thing at the end of the day, and what's "right" isn't much more than past precedent backed by consensus, so I often find myself wondering how worthwhile it is getting too upset about what's "wrong", really.

First few seconds:
"AI isn't being used as a tool to improve human lives"

Strange how ChatGPT became the 5th most visited website in the world in a matter of a year or two, and MidJourney is the largest Discord server by like 10x of the nearest competitor. That's an awful lot of people using these services without getting any usable utility out of them at all. Wonder why they're going there if it's not doing anything for them?

> guy admits to having been a tester on Rain World
> despite that also admits that he's beaten the game several times and had no idea about the AI-related backstory because he wasn't "skilled enough" to get the lore logs

Apparently the big important anti-AI message at the heart of Rain World is that people wanted to solve the problem of death so they made enormous city-sized computers to solve it, but the computers needed water for cooling, and they release all that water as steam at once, which comes down as torrential destructive rain all at once (hence the name Rain World) and the ground is uninhabitable as a result. Which turns out not to be a valid warning against AI, because that's not happening and is at zero risk of ever happening. He walks this all the way back to "climate change is a problem and AI uses energy and doesn't provide anything worthwhile as a result, which is eerily similar to the game." The supercomputers never solved the problem, proving they destroyed the environment for no reason just like modern AI is clearly accomplishing nothing at all.

Scattered throughout are the standard mushmouthed memetic falsehoods about what AI does or doesn't do.

> the whole time he's decrying AI and how it's automating art he's using advanced computing technology to translate his real world movements to a 3D avatar so he doesn't have to expend any effort to animate it himself

Such a powerful and not at all pretentious message Rainworld has to offer that it has to be portrayed by such a ludicrous over-the-top fantasy strawman of a scenario to peddle some retarded narrative. "And then they made computers to 'solve the problem of death'(???) but it steamed all the water and then it never stopped raining and they all died the end." Oh, look- he even signed it in the corner: "by jonny age 5". And people say AI makes slop.

Makes a good segueway though into this fear mongering you see being pushed every now and again that water cooled AI servers are deleting water. Because soyence is conditional and the water cycle is only real when it's in favor of the narrative.

I have heard that most water cooling isn't done from dirty seawater since it'd be less efficient and cause issues in the pipes, so you have to use purified water, which isn't free. But they pay to purify their water the same as anyone else.

Also heard that it's difficult to use the same water forever in a closed loop because there are inevitably particulates and flakes from the inside of the system which gradually cause problems, so often it needs to be cycled out too.

None of this is a big deal though.

What prompts an organism capable of communication to do effeminizing voice? It's disturbing and I hate the grating noise. It sounds like someone is stuffing said mouth with fruits or vegetables and talking with their mouth full. Talk about having no manners!

A bunch of them can't pull a decent girl voice, which is why many decide just to not change their voice at all. I guess you're kind of in a lose-lose if you can't do a girl voice and you have to choose between just using your normal voice or doing a grating muppet voice

They're too lazy to train. The voice can be compared to a muscle because one can train it higher or lower. If one consistently speaks in the register they want to be heard in, they will get better at using that voice. The issue is that it's not easy and it requires effort and it can be uncomfortable, like most other forms of exercise. So they don't do it and they take a shortcut - talking directly through their nose instead. It makes them all sound retarded and is a clear tell that they do not want to put in the work to be seen as their ideal but simply want to demand others obey and conform to their self-image. Many such cases.

I can understand that being cut off from what you saw as a meaningful relationship is one of the most devastating feelings you can get, but I can't help but think part of this verges into incel logic.

Imagine a guy has a friendship with a girl, and then they disconnect for a year, and they mutually do not talk for nearly a year, and then when the guy contacts the girl, he finds out she entered a relationship. While understandably upsetting, it's a little extreme to see this as a betrayal and go on a tirade against her.
