Being gullible or stupid isn’t an excuse.

Especially not in 2024.

Man, after the dust settled once the third reich crumbled, that was the excuse millions of people in Germany had.

Most people weren’t on board with or even know about the genocidal engine underpinning it all, but they sure as hell could see the other bad shit that was going on, and by the time it was obvious for everyone, it was much too late, because they controlled everything and harsh punishments were known to be expected for everyone except the ultra-privileged.

Nah, man. Being an inflexible, obnoxious asshole is not an excuse to put millions of people in danger and setting horrendous precedents.

You know, Costco exists in Europe as well, with the same food order menu.

Porn fakes are old news, yes - but what the post you replied to is talking about is “deep learning” (remember that, before the great deluge of “AI”?) fakes, which to some extent either uses generative networks to swap out or alter the face/body, or straight up generate simulacra graphics/video, as opposed to a human doing for the most part comparatively bad hack jobs with multiple sources as in the past.

As said by others; see a physician, then a psychiatrist (in that order).

Auditory pseudo-hallucinations may be completely benign, especially if you’ve partaken in psychedelic substances recent or long since past, but they may also be an early warning sign of (like you said) potential pressure on the brain or abnormality in brain functioning.

And even that might be fine.

Either way, why gamble? Go see a doctor.

I do believe it’s something like 300 per resident of the US per year, not specific residents with prescriptions. Just illustrating quantities, in other words.

Actually, I believe it might be worse than that, but I’m not looking it up, just tried to clarify.

I’m Swedish… A rich small country.

I didn’t realize you were talking global median income, since it was not defined.

I don’t know how great of a barometer for economics a luxury goods/service like a AAA video game is, though.

Man, things are a LOT worse in the US than the media makes you believe if the median income is $2600 a year.
