I could be wrong, but I don't think moms were any thicker back then.

Nowadays it's much easier to find single moms in your area to compare.

If anything, they were a lot smaller

Yeah I remember being 5 and thinking how boring and lame as fuck everything was and couldn't wait for the future. We are at a level of tech now that I'm satisfied with. Now stop progressing plz, it's getting scary now. I wasn't prepared for this AI shit.

I can't wait until all games and media is made from A.I, think of all the endless hours playing a fully generated game kinda like MC but more Indepth. And also having AI make up a full length movie about skipibidy toilet fighting superman

Thing about this is, I actually enjoy coding and creating and messing around with the nuts and bolts of tech. I don't know if I will enjoy a future where all that is abstracted away into a black box. I'd still want to know exactly what's going on. And with ML algorithms, it's not clear how an AI came to the conclusion it did.

I WANT to bang my head against the wall trying to figure out problems rather than have my hand held by an AI. That's most of the fun right there. The challenge.

I got Golden Grahams recently for the first time in decades and they didn't taste great. Kids didn't even want them.

The heck are Michael Jackson sleepovers? It sounds kind of suspect.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

He had children stay at his house and in his bed for sleepovers.

Many younger people today think it was all a conspiracy theory and he was framed because he was rich and being extorted. But this is stuff he actually admitted to.

I actually knew about this, but for some reason, I tought it meant Michael Jackson-themed sleepovers. I'm stupid like that sometimes.

I love this! Golden Grahams are one of my favorite cereals, and I always thought this one had lots of potential...

Is this an ad for Golden Grahams?

Also moms were not “thicc” Women were fit and attractive in the 80s.
