I think the point of this comic is that AI is doing all of the fun creative stuff for us but the jobs that we actually hate doing are beyond its capabilities.

Our personal workloads reduced because the industrialisation of agriculture meant we didn't have to grow our own food any more.

Not trying to defend capitalism, but it's disingenuous of you to imply that you don't get anything in return for working.

YouTube have such a stranglehold on the >1m market, that's why they can afford to stagnate in that area and look into other markets. They don't have to fear a competitor threatening their core market any time soon.

We should wait for the lab results before confirming the diagnosis

Don't they understand that the problem with our education system is not that it doesn't teach useful real world things - it's that it's so crushingly dull that it destroys any natural curiosity that kids have. This proposal will make that worse.

Friend, you're 20. The concept of "potential" being "wasted" at this point in your life is non existent. You're still right at the start of the journey. Don't dwell on what you think you might have missed yesterday. Make a plan for tomorrow.

Fuck Nestlé.

I'm up to about 30 unplayed games in my Steam library. I really need to stop buying more.

What does "permanently" mean, in this case? Surely, at best, this means until we have a government that decides to overturn it. And I'm not even confident that that wouldn't be a subsequent Labour one.

I think I'm willing to accept that rebuilding the Crooked House isn't a feasible solution. However, I am a bit concerned about the prevalence of this kind of insurance fraud so would like to see the perpetrators brought to justice, to dissuade others from doing the same in future.

I enjoyed this episode. Lots of favourite old irregular characters returning, and I had a particular fondness for the scene where the women were psyching out the men. Charlie suddenly being hyper aware of his elbows was a great concept, magnificently executed. And I'm also glad to see Dee getting some proper screen time - it feels like she's been wallpaper all of this series so far.

End credits that can't be skipped or sped up

The Mooncrash DLC for Prey (2017) isn't strictly a time loop game but it might have a lot of the elements that you find interesting.

My concern is that it feels like using Google to confirm the truth of what ChatGPT tells you is becoming less and less reliable, as so many of the pages indexed by Google are themselves created by similar models. But I suppose as long as your search took you to a site where you could actually buy the thing, that's okay.

Or at least, it is until fake shopping sites start inventing products based on ChatGPT output.

When this current "AI" bubble bursts, Reddit will be left with nothing. They sold what goodwill they had for a handful of magic beans.

If you own multiple homes, then you can view all but one of them as an investment, as you can sell them when the market is good.

If you own one house and have a mortgage on it, then the market going down is bad because you end up with negative equity.

If you own one house with no mortgage, then the market going up is bad because it's harder to upgrade. I wouldn't mind my house being only worth £10,000 if it meant that I could buy my dream house for £20,000.

As it says in the article, these are also being purchased by small retailers, so even if you buy from a bricks-and-mortar store, there's no guarantee that you're getting the genuine article.
