  • Meh my internet points will take a hit.

    Guy is paid to enforce rules. “Hey you snuck in food I have to ask you to leave.”

    Last says “No.”

    Dudes next thing is “Well I’ll need to call the cops if you are treaspassing.”

    Lady refuses. So he calls the cops.

    Yes there is testimony from the people kicked out that he was a douche, but for arguments sake let’s say the guys denies saying any of the douchebag thing.

    Now let’s put you in his shoes. You need this job, you have a lady refusing to leave… What do you do?

    Seriously his actions aren’t unwarranted, especially in a place like NZ where cops don’t have a whole thing about shooting people.

    I say this as a person who’s snuck tons of snacks, but also when I was caught and asked to leave I did.

    I love it for asset creation and texture for games. As a programmer with 0 artistic skill it has been a god send to be able to do far higher quality UI while not bogging down my prototyping time.

    But for like truely unique art… It’s kind of a mess. Like try to get an AI to make a dwarf warrior with a Lance riding on the shoulders of an anthropomorphic cat person, who is dressed in monk robes.

    AI struggles so hard with unique scenes like that… For now…








  • Alright let me make a devils advocate position in good faith.

    Government surveillance is bad. A digital ID system is government surveillance.

    If the system is OP-in for non social media sites. But mandatory for major social media sites, pornography, liquor/weed purchase sites and for commenting on news sites… It’s not that different then the current web?

    I mean we all use Firefox, TOR and VPNs if we want privacy on the web at this point. The government having a centralized point to deanonymize you on standard web isn’t really a big deal.

    Now if they crack down on VPN/alternate methods then yeah… It’s gonna be a bad time. But I can actually see this as an attack vector to prevent misinformation.
