WHY DID THIS 3 POINTER TAKE FIVE DAYS

YES YES, IT'S NOT TIME BUT WE ARE TRACKING IT THAT WAY BUT IT'S IMPORTANT FOR YOU TO NOT THINK OF IT THAT WAY WHEN YOU ESTIMATE BUT WHY DID YOU GO OVER THREE DAYS

idk man, my scalp gets all dry and then if I counter by moisturizing it gets all shiny. I just give up, if I'm not seeing people I care about I'm not gonna shave it

the thing about balding that I didn't expect is how fast the hair I have left grows. It's like I have to shave it every week if I don't want to look like that.

you may not have an account but your friends and family might and if you have similar interests they may vouch for products that were pitched to them via AI.. so in that way, they're still reaching you

everyone is looking at it wrong expecting these social media companies to show this as engagement.

That's not the goal.

The purpose of the AI profiles is targeted advertising. It probably isn't going to work on you but it does work on many demographics. It's the same concept as any other advertisement. They all set the scene of the specific type of person they want to buy their product, whether it's a TV commercial, a radio ad, a magazine page.

The only real difference here is that it's not a real person but when it comes to advertising, will that really matter? That is, will the drop in sales be negligible compared to the massive drop in cost of advertising?

you could argue that men have similar exclusive, lucrative paths that use their strength/athleticism and are also probably statistically similar rates of exclusivity within their sex. Like, not everyone will be a professional footballer just like not every onlyfans model makes livable income.

it's weird how you are really specific when accusing everyone of behaving in the same non-constructive way but then you're really vague about what you expect people to do.

All your grandiose literary imagery makes it difficult to understand what you're trying to say.

what do you think should be done?

Balatro does have a lot going on graphically and even my pixel 8 pro starts to heat up when playing it. The game's art style may be pixel art, but there are a lot of shaders on all the cards and the cards themselves are either 3d or have some perspective stuff going on to make them able to rotate away from the camera

also, there's the giant shifting background which is another complex shader that can't be turned off.

I think the game has been optimized since release a bit, but still, it's not just simple card images.

for most people

I'm assuming there was some sort of survey that shows this then?

Goodson told police she was actually “scared” of shooting the gun and hoped simply producing it would be enough to deter potential threats. “If that didn’t do it I would probably just pistol whip,” Goodson was quoted as having said.
