This is my political account. If you want to know my more political takes, some of which *will certainly* be spicy, this is where you'll find it.

Dillon is political @dillonispolitical.bsky.social · 29d

I suppose I should introduce myself before people start flagging me as a bot.

This is the more political account for @6sidedgames.bsky.social.

Still getting up and running, so mind the bump.

Dear sweet mother of fucking God.

I'd be asking the teacher to be sacked.

Just fucking fire them.

I hope both of you are safe and your families are okay with all the flooding up there.

On the topic of Rah's post, I'm also an organ donor, though I suspect that they won't be able to take mine when I pass. Still worth it just in case.

Something I would like to see out of FF14's story going forward are 2 things.

Introduce a new character that is longer term than one expansion. It'll allow for longer storylines that made some of the other expansions great.

2: Explore what being "Azem" means through other version of the WoL.

I know you're making fun of Playboy, but they did have legit good articles and short stories.

Stephen King wrote for them for a while.

And the current AI bullshit will hurt more. We've already seen literal deaths caused by it.

Dillon @6sidedgames.bsky.social · 22h

How did the other shards' versions of you respond to the responsibility? Did they do the same thing Ardbert did and get tricked by the Ascians? Did they resist?

It was implied that Golbez was the Void's version of you. What about other versions? What about Alexandria's?

It boils down to "Democrats are human, the GOP is a force of nature."

25 years in, we are NOT allowing genAI music onto OC ReMix, full stop.

We're 100% against genAI music and are a community geared toward authentic creativity and artistic development. You don't get that by doing text prompts.

Recent comment: "This A.I. music is as fake as 🏈 🦇."

In this case, this is human-made. (3 of our judges panel are also involved as collaborators on it: jnWake, pixelseph, and paradiddlesjosh.)

We explicitly do NOT accept any music made with generative A.I. There are tools out there that help identify genAI music. If music involving genAI is ever unknowingly let on, it will be removed if it's discovered.

Isaac Asimov, Ben Bova, Arthur C Clark.

Dillon @6sidedgames.bsky.social · 1d

Not according to my stepdad, who started reading sci-fi in the 60's and introduced me to the genre.

Dillon @6sidedgames.bsky.social · 1d

I was introduced to sci fi through the ABC's of Asimov, Bova, and Clark.

That said, they are all dated and dry by today's standards.

Honestly, I'm not sure insurance would actually cover this.

Definitely talk to a licensed property and liability insurance rep.

It's been a few years since I had to do my test, and property was only a small portion of my health license, so I can't remember if this is something you can get.

Dillon @6sidedgames.bsky.social · 1d

I'm sure that the people doing this for 20+ years have something to say about this.

It's actually better than humans in all regards except for "novel" concepts. It's less prone to bias, too.

My mind immediately went to T'Ana (from #StarTrek #LowerDecks) but I'm enough of a nerd to laugh about collapsing the waveform. 😏

Oh, third season is starting?

Sweet.

Dillon @6sidedgames.bsky.social · 1d

And the real bitch of it is that if you leave anything less than ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐, it counts agains them.

Dillon @6sidedgames.bsky.social · 1d

I agree, but at least it looks like it just requires a DoB or age to be entered.

It's pretty unintrusive when compared to the other states.

Still fucking dumb and does nothing, but not nearly as bad as it could be.

If anyone is feeling generous this Indigenous Peoples Day, the bank holiday has put me further from my paycheck than I planned and I'm without food for the day and tomorrow. Would like to raise $125 for food and to avoid a late fee on a bill.
