-Hobbit saying

ok look. what are you actually imagining that these engineering students are using chatgpt to do? because my experience of engineering school in every class that actually mattered was that the entire grade in the class came from

if somehow you are using chatgpt to explain the material to you in a new way beforehand and then memorizing it so that you can go into the test and answer the math questions correctly, that is simply called "learning the material" lol

the grinning goop

me: if only there was a fruit that looks like an apple but is actually a pear

the baffling papple:

ive just seen the american psycho characters drawn as my little ponies and honestly i dont think patrick should have been given that cd as his cutie mark. i think you're doing it wrong if you're not making him a perpetual blank flank

look if you're gonna draw characters as my little ponies you have to remember that the cutie mark can't just be any old imagery you associate with them. it has to be Representative. it's their Unique Characteristic. to quote the pony wiki page i just googled, "Twilight and Applejack point out in Call of the Cutie how lacking a mark means that ponies still get to experience 'the thrill of discovering who they are and what they're meant to be'." there's narrative shit going on here there's Themes. and patrick bateman is NOT unique. he has NOT discovered who he is or what he's meant to be. the end monologue of the book is literally about how he has absolutely nothing going for him in this regard & is simply a vacant, hollow person merely vacuously gesturing at the idea of having depth. and when he rants about music, that's what he's doing there, too. his lyrical analysis is shallow/vaguely inaccurate summaries at best and completely warped at worst. everything he has to say about music--and in general--is intensely fixated on commodities and on appearing normal and intelligent while being entirely devoid of any intelligent or individual thought. so no, his cutie mark is not music. mr "missing that hip to be square is about making fun of conformist squares & proudly proclaiming that its actually about how fucking Awesome it is to be conformist and consumerist" does NOT have a fucking cd cutie mark. He's a blank flank. He has no unique identity. There is no future for him. There is no self identity. He's a fucking blank flank. okay? sorry i got a little passionate about this. there is no exit and he has no cutie mark

i'm losing my fucking mind. a damn near perfect file in simcity 3000 was chugging along just fine and suddenly everything broke. tax income dropped by like 90%. i was getting warnings about low land value despite them being at their highest nearly across the entire city. baffled, i made a backup save and then let it continue for a bit and. i literally got fucking fired. i lost. i didn't even know you could lose simcity. and again, everything was still just as meticulously perfect as autism/adhd hyperfocus could make it (very).

the culprit, uncovered after significant investigation?

overflow error.

that's right. my land values were so high they looped back to zero. i got fucking nuclear gandhi'd. i was so good at simcity i literally broke it, i'm laughing so much. i think this means i won simcity, actually

worth noting that fixing this took. some work. they didn't care about pollution, i stuck incinerators in the middle of everything and it was still hitting overflow. the only thing i could do to consistently keep out of overflow danger while maintaining the same zoning layout was encourage crime. via heavily nerfing police. which while funny was also very annoying and not sustainable as a solution. in the end, i had to remove about 30% of my total park land. which wasn't as nightmarish as it sounds due to the extreme level of symmetry i build everything with, but still stung. anyway that did fix the problem, creating a gradient of (a small amount of) medium to (still mostly) astronomical land value rather than. the solid wall of astronomical i had before. the long and short of it is that simcity 3000 was released in 1999 and they accidentally coded in the 2008 housing bubble crash as a game mechanic which is pretty funny
