I prefer hacking van

I did like all the little money icons that came off the van.
Looking back, the whole idea of a hacker you could move about the map is so stupid

Whoever said that?

Well then they're wrong . I thought the whole point of AI was to be creative — as opposed to, you know, a robot or something. As we already have them.

[General]

They should be creative in manual labor and nothing else. (Having a general intelligence to solve labor problems and understand tasks without the need to program them for every specific job)

They should have 0 understanding of art or emotion. This shit should be banned.

Why would you use an AI to do manual labour?!

[TheDR]

Lots of reasons! But I am tired and can't be bothered to type them

[General]

Just use the AI to type it for you


oh wait...

Exactly

Sure sure.

Last of Season 2 was a little disappointing.

The pacing seemed all over the place.

[General]

First season was great, second is not watchable. Only good scene was when Isaac casually dropped grenades inside the vehicle and closed the doors

[Chyros]

Last of Us?

[TheDR]

Rest of Us?

Meanwhile in the UK....

Yeah but spines in brine are so bloody cheap.

THEY COST NOT LOTS
