I think they’re more looking down on the jail itself for not having many books.

As well, writing ability does not indicate someone’s overall level of capabilities.

Kim’s Convenience was ruined by its last season and getting cancelled (or whatever happened to it).

Pretend it got cancelled a season early. It’s a bit of a GoT situation, but to a lesser extent.

That’s fair!

I’m surprised that a social worker would be saying “You have a fair bit to learn about the English language” to someone who is looking to donate books to a prison…

The elitist part was saying that someone should learn more about the English language before trying to help others learn.

They didn’t merely"wonder" if someone read many books. They were dismissing someone’s desire to donate books and help people.

As much as I like a curated experience in games, I’d totally be up for an open world game like GTA (sandbox mode, not story mode) with NPCs powered by LLMs

Are you a man? Call it a kilt.

Heh. I pre-ordered games on occasion when I knew I’d want a copy but stock would be limited.

For me, it was the people who bought GameStop warranties on their brand new games that befuddled me.

Lol, why the elitism here? It doesn’t seem like OP is trying to do anything bad.

What are you trying to convince me to be scared of with that article?

There are so many distractions at work. In this case, it’s the customer asking stupid questions! Lol

I had to look up AFAB (assigned female at birth) because I was trying to figure out what the F stood for…I was thinking it was “All F? Are Bastards”, lmao

Anyway.

Others have answered the question well, but retro tech has always been interesting.

I think that these days, more people are interested in tech in general (it’s unavoidable in our daily lives), and more people were interested in tech before, too. So there are people exposing younger people to older tech, and in some ways, the “disconnected” aspects of retro tech can resonate with younger people.

I’m aware.

while the cops do some fucked up shit

Whether physical is more expensive or digital is discounted, it should’ve been like this from the start!

Keep in mind that video games are cheaper than they have been for most of history. I get that they want to raise prices. But it never made sense that physical and digital games were the same price.

Aside from not wanting to go through the effort of switching cartridges/discs (which is great for more passive/“permanent” games like say Animal Crossing or Pokemon maybe), I never understood the appeal of digital games for consoles. It feels like getting less for the same price.

I remember this was a big thing for a while in those weird men’s communities. Where being an incel wasn’t because of religion or loserdom, but because of wanting to “save his seed” because that’s where a man’s power comes from or some nonsense.

Yeah, I live in Canada, and while the cops do some fucked up shit, it’s not nearly to the level as US cops.

I never see a cop and feel scared for myself or anybody around me. At most, I feel worried that there’s something happening.

Huh, you’re not very good at this conversation thing, eh?

Lol, someone asked you to explain your position, and you responded by asking questions asking about someone’s personal situation. I think you’re the problem here.

Well… sometimes. More often than the LLM!

It could be understood to mean “AI [tools]”, which would be plural
