idk if this counts as cooking but arugla, sea salt, and half a lemon topped with real balsamic vinegar and hazelnuts if I got em and maybe a slice of parm. The key is real balsamic which can be hard to find in the states - it should have only 1 ingredient; grape must. Shit is delicious. I could eat it every day.

Dystopian sci-fi set in the near future. Every major political decision is made with the assistance of AI because most people believe that its the best way to make difficult decisions. Each country has developed its own AI.

The AI gives 3 possible solutions to whatever question its asked/problem its trying to solve but the final decision is left up to that country’s leader.

The AI is not sentient. Its not evil in the traditional sense. It has no goals. No agenda. It doesn’t hate humans or anything like that. It just gives three possible solutions to difficult questions.

However, one of the three solutions always involves some kind of death or morally questionable implementation. Maybe a genocide will solve immigration. Or maybe mass suicide is the ethical choice when faced with climate disaster.

Whatever the scenario, it just so happens that the AI phrases its most horrific solution in a way that convinces the worlds leaders to pick it, 9 times out of ten.

It’ll be subtle. The average reader won’t be aware that the world is run by killer robots but that’s essentially what happens because that’s what AI does. It doesn’t give you an answer to your question, it gives you what it thinks an answer should sound like. Its just really good at convincing us that its answer is correct.

I think there’s a lot of interesting things to explore in this universe but who the fuck got the time for all that?? Not me.

Last I heard, there were rumors that the scrapped squad based combat in favor of a God of War style action RPG.

If that’s the case, lol RIP and good riddance.

Seems like run of the mill corporate price gouging to me. And they’ll get away with it because most people don’t think ADHD is a ‘real’ disorder. No way there’d be an insulin shortage for a year and a half.

You know its bad when Blizzard fans are happy that the company was bought by Microsoft.

Microsoft. And they’re happy.

What a time to be alive.

That said, if Microsoft revived HotS I’d tatoo Bill Gates face on my face. That game is way too good to go out the way it did.

Bro they legit never worked. It was all marketing.

Bro, I have no idea what I’m even looking at but goddamn its pretty. You killed it.

I can see you’re a person of culture.

I’ve been using protonmail/vpn for a few years now. I’ve had nothing but positive experiences. That said, I think its healthy to question any business, especially those that claim to care about your privacy. I’m curious to hear what signals you’ve picked up on.
